I am currently on my THIRD Bushnell Pinseeker 1500, and this one is starting to go on me as well. The first one, right out of the box, was broken. The third number in the yardage display wouldn't show up properly....it would always just be blacked out as the number 8. So, I went back & promptly exchanged it. The second one lasted maybe 3-4 rounds, and then the crosshairs decided to stop working. Again, went back and exchanged it.

Now, I think my third one is starting to go. My last round, it started to take a LONG time to get yardages back....and I'm not talking long yardages...like maybe 100 yards and under, and I was even trying to get distances off large objects to see if it was just having difficulty with smaller objects that day.

Anyone else had as many lemons as I have had??

nope, mine has been perfect for quite a while now.

I'd have given up after the second one went belly up.

never had a problem with mine!

My Pinseeker 1500 works flawlessly and is superfast in acquiring yardages.....and I'm not particularly "nice" to it, either.

I have one of the original all-black, non-slope models----it's a little faster than all of my buddies' Tournament Edition models.

that's really odd that three would punk out on you like that. maybe it's a bad batch or something, return it, get your money back and go to a completely different store?

i'm not a PS fan (go SkyCaddie!) but either you have really bad luck, are the victim of some sort of sabotage or you got three messed up units from the same defective run or batch.

from the other posts there are tons of satisfied bushnell users out there, so don't let a couple of bad experiences get you down.

I've had mine for about 3 months and it won't give me yardages over 100 yards unless it has a mirror on the pin. I haven't known what to do, but I've had troubles just like you have.

Mine has been flawless. I'm sorry that happened to you.

I'm not bitter towards Bushnell, nor am I bitter towards the store (I work there...hehe). I'm just a little frustrated to the point that I think I'll just return it, get my money back, and go back to pacing off sprinkler heads. I was able to get to a 4 index when I did that in high school, so there's no reason why I can't do it now :P

I had to return my first 1500 b/c the Pinseeker Mode did not work consistently. In discussing with the shop I bought from it was an infrequent but not unheard of problem. Second one works like a champ and I am very happy with it.
