![]() The RAZR is, however, the lightest device in our tests, weighing in at 6.3 ounces on its own, or 8.5 ounces with the protective pouch and carabiner. It’s marketed as “shock resistant”, and although we didn’t perform any drop tests off of a moving cart on to concrete, the RAZR appears durable, and we’ll take their word for it.Ĭallaway has reduced the size of the RAZR from their prior generation rangefinder by 10%, down to 4.4″ x 1.6″ x 2.8″, making it the smallest in the Callaway lineup, but only average within the entire laser rangefinder field. The Callaway RAZR is a vertically-held laser rangefinder, with a grey, red and black elastomer (rubber) body, textured at the front half, with the body size and material easy to grip. The RAZR is slightly below average in cost across laser rangefinders that do not provide slope-adjusted distance information, but the slight discount isn’t enough to make us recommend this device. Why do we say “intended”? Because we found the RAZR to be one of the least sensitive among the laser rangefinders we have tested at picking out pins at near and far distances alike, necessitating firing only at the flag or, if visible, the base of the flagstick at the hole. The Callaway RAZR has First Target Priority mode (the equivalent of Bushnell’s PinSeeker or Leupold’s PinHunter), which is always on and is intended to pick up the nearest target in your line of sight. The laser will fire for 8 seconds when activated and provide continuous distance readings, the last of which remains displayed for 8 additional seconds after the laser is done firing. The device has a waterproof shell, and comes with a protective pouch to protect the lens and carabiner to clip the device to your bag. Keep in mind that the level of accuracy is more than likely +/- 1 yard (though not specified by Callaway). ![]() We do appreciate, however, the 0.1 yard incremental readings all the way to a maximum of 600 yards. ![]() The device offers the standard 6x magnification and focusing eyepiece.Īlthough the Callaway RAZR is marketed as providing faster readings, we didn’t notice an improvement over past Callaway laser rangefinders. ![]() The laser is 10% smaller than the prior generation, and ranks as the lightest laser in our tests (though not the smallest). The Callaway RAZR, manufactured by Nikon, offers some changes from its predecessor devices. ![]()
