At THP, we believe that testing should be done not only by us, but also by the golfers just like you. One of the cool features about being an active member of the THP Forum is that we look to you guys/gals, the consumers, to give feedback on equipment to golfers all around the world. Each month we send out iron sets, drivers, hybrids, putters, trainings aids and golf balls to our active members to be a part of the THP Forum Member testing.

Looking forward to seeing who joins in on this really fun laser testing.
 
Nice. Interested to find out what THPers think about this one.
 
Awesome ... good luck, all!
 
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? Yes
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not? Precision Pro NX9 Slope
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? The SmartSwitch and the ease of changing settings that comes with that feature.
 
Interested to know what people think also! I have a couple, and they suite me fine when needed, so I'll look forward to THP'ers reviews.
 
Noice! Thanks for the opportunity.


1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder?
-Yes
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not?
-TecTecTec VPRO500
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? Our review is here.
-Definitely the SmartSwitch. Navigating buttons on most range finders is an absolute pain and this seems like an absolute game changer!
 
I have never been so jealous of a testing!!! Go get it you all! Good luck!!
 
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? No
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not? i have always used a handheld gps device
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? Lifetime warranty is nice to have, also the speed to get targets locked in. that goes in line with the "pinsense" the quicker you can get the target up the quicker we can hit and keep pace. the worst is when you see the guy trying to get the yardage and it seems like 5 mins before he gets it. faster is definitely better.
 
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? No.
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not?
Been working on contact first. Only just starting to try and dial in distance.
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? Our review is here.
PinSense sounds pretty cool. I also put a premium on speed with just about any electronics I use.

You can have mine and join in on the testing.
 
Gotta love the THP Test/Review opportunities, and this one sounds incredible!

1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? Yes
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not? Precision Pro NX7 Pro Slope
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? Our review is here. Speed and accuracy, with a lifetime warranty are a good place to start, but the magnesium chassis with aluminum exterior really gets my interest!
 
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? No
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not? I have been using a GPS
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? When they were on off course and talked about their tech being on the space stations etc.. they seem next level legit no fluff..
 
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder?

No.

2. If yes, which model, if no, why not?

For my game it hasn't been a necessity. Generally looking more at a range instead of a specific number. Have used my Apple Watch in the past to get a number.

3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? Our review is here.

I think the company history in the market makes this device interesting. They have produced lasers for applications that are much more precision oriented than golf. Think a range finder might be what I need to help figure out what are my club distances. Also, this would be a multi-use tool for me. The industry that I work in has a heavy field investigation/mapping component. I see this living in my truck and going to not only the course but also the field.
 
Not an entry, but good luck to those entering!
 
1. Yes i have one
2. I use the Bushnell Hybrid
3. The ease of working the "Smart Switch" raised dial to move from applications and changing the brightness, slope, measurements and such

I would love the opportunity to examine this against the best i have used, so far....

Yes I do

2. If yes, which model, if no, why not?
Nikon Prostaff 3i

3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested?
The Pinsense for sure. With my current model it can be tricky to get locked on to the target
 
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? Yes
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not? SereneLife SLGRF20SL
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? I have never used a rangefinder with slope before. Having the SmartSwitch to quickly toggle between options to see how much impact slope has will be extremely valuable especially when first getting used to the unit. Also, I'd love to see how well their PinSense technology works to lock onto pins. I struggle with this on my current model.
 
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? No
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not? Have been using my watch and an app
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? Like the smartswitch dial on the side for ease of access and changing the settings
 
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? Yes
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not? Nicon Aculon
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? In the review, it says this model is as good as any that have been reviewed. This is exciting. Also, my finder has absolutely no extra features. It would be nice to see how much more beneficial one with a bunch of features is. Lifetime warranty is great too.
 
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? No
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not? Been using Arccos and SwingU iPhone apps
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? The overall ergonomics, but especially the Surge function (vibration response) when you're locked on. The simplicity of using a rangefinder vs using an app has been a debate I have had recently with some other people.
 
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? Yes
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not? Nexus NX7 Pro
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? The accuracy of the slope feature. I'd really like to compare it to the NX7 and see how close they are. There are many elevated greens at my course, and sometimes I question how accurate the slope yardage is on the NX7.
 
Comment below and answer these 3 questions.
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? Yes
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not? Voice Caddie EL1
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested?
I've been wanting to try their product since they appeared on off course, if it's good enough for NASA it's good enough for me.
 
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? Yes
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not? Shot Scope Pro L1
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? Speed, speed, speed. The Pro L1 is awesome, but it isn't the quickest to lock on the target. That and, if I'm being totally honest, it just looks cool :LOL:
 
1. Do you currently have a laser rangefinder? No
2. If yes, which model, if no, why not?
It’s a simple mono scope
3. What is it about this Cobalt Q6 that has you most interested? The switches and dials. Not having to think about menus etc is great
Thank you for the review and opportunity
