Here’s a second gift guide—an emergency nine, if you will—to complement last week’s 18 ideas.
TecTecTec ULT-X Golf Laser Rangefinder
TecTecTec is the No. 1-selling rangefinder brand on Amazon and the ULT-X is its most advanced model to date. Target Lock Technology (TLT) makes the unit vibrate when it locks on the target, and a visible slope toggle can easily be engaged/disengaged (for USGA-conforming play). Measures distances up to 300 yards and is precise within 0.3 yards. Premium lens and 6x magnification for ultra-clear and accurate view. Two-year warranty.
