The Callaway Golf 300 Pro laser rangefinder is over $120 off today

By Briley Kenney September 23, 2024

When you’re on a course, trying to gauge the distance between you and the hole and other, more formidable course elements — like sand traps — you’ll need some help. That’s where a rangefinder comes in handy. For example, the Callaway Golf 300 Pro laser rangefinder. It can help you measure distances, in yards or meters, elevation changes, and much more. With unique pin-locking technology, you can hone in on the pin, at a distance of up to 300 yards away. Normally $300, it’s 41% off today down to $178. That saves you over $120.

Why you should shop this Callaway Golf 300 Pro laser rangefinder deal

If you don’t spend a lot of time on the course, you won’t need one of these, plain and simple. But if you do, even if you’re just practicing some drives, it’s going to be a huge help. Why? Essentially, it helps you spot the hole or pin from far away. More crucially, it helps you measure the distance between you and the pin, as well as other areas of the course. You’ll know exactly how far away those traps or obstacles are.

It’s more than just your average scope, too. Precise slope measurement support helps you discern elevation changes around the pitch. It even calculates the slope-adjusted distance. Don’t worry the external slope switch allows you to turn those features off to be compliant with tournament rules.

Pin-locking technology helps you lock onto the pin, with a unique pulse or burst feature that gives you some feedback. Superior magnification and accuracy are built into the unit, as well. The 6x magnification allows you to measure a range of 5 to 1,000 yards with a + or – 1-yard accuracy rating. You can swap measurements between yards and meters, whichever you prefer. Plus, a built-in magnet means you can attach this scope right to your cart, or more accurately, mount it. That makes it available for quick access.

Normally $300, as part of Amazon’s early Prime Big Deal Days offers, the Callaway Golf 300 Pro is only $178 today, saving you over $120. It would be a great addition for your gameday gear.

Seeing bear poop on the trail? Here’s what you should do

Bear poop: what it looks like and what to do about it

what to do if you see bear poop daniele levis pelusi wxmzt3sie4g unsplash

While hiking in the woods, it's not uncommon to come across a pile of animal waste. It's gross, to be sure, but identifying scat is actually one of the easiest ways to keep yourself safe from dangerous wild animals. These telltale signs can mean the difference between you charging through into a bear's territory or not, so knowing what to look for can help keep you safe. Here is everything you need to know about bear poop and what it means if you come across it in the middle of the woods.
What does bear poop look like?

Bear poop can vary in appearance. This is because bears may have different diets, or they might even be different kinds all together. Generally, bear scat is larger and more cylindrical than human or dog feces. Segments can be several inches long and about 1-2 inches in diameter, but the size of the scat does not always directly correlate to the size of the bear. The contents of the bear’s recent diet play a larger role in determining scat size and appearance. For instance, a bear that recently ate a lot of berries may produce more, but smaller, scat compared to a bear that consumed a large animal or fish.

Man camping in the fall

Waking up to a rain forecast on the morning of a long-anticipated camping trip fills most campers with a sense of dread. The thought of wet gear, muddy trails, and soggy clothes might be enough to make you second-guess your adventure. But before you cancel your plans, you might be surprised to that camping in the rain doesn't always have to ruin your parade. With the right preparation, you can turn this forecast into a positive and memorable experience. Don't let the rain dampen your trip! Here are our best tips for bad weather.
Know before you go

You should never go into the outdoors feeling unprepared, and the key part of your preparation is checking the weather forecast. The more you know about what you're getting into, the better prepared you can be for your trip. First, ask yourself the question: Does your proposed trip still work? Rain shouldn't stop play, but torrential rain can mean that certain hikes, trails with river crossings, and even some campsites aren't going to be an option. Evaluate carefully, and make the safe decision.
