CaddyView V2 offers a 6x magnification and FlagSeeking technology to ensure you’re locked onto the pin, instead of that annoying tree behind the green. It’s also helpful for those with not-so-steady hands. It can read distances up to 800 yards away, up to 250 yards with the FlagSeeking tech, which should be plenty for most of us average Joes.

The best feature is one that you usually only find in a high-end rangefinder: slope-adjusted yardage readouts. A plastic cover-like piece on the side of the rangefinder enables the slope, and it can be removed and swapped for the non-slope version if you need to make it legal for tournament play. When the slope is enabled, the readout will give you both a true number and a slope adjusted number.

Out of the Box

In terms of setting up the Caddytek CaddyView V2 Rangefinder, you can’t get much easier. The battery is easily installed under the lens, you press the power button and presto! There’s an additional button on the top of the device to turn the FlagSeeking on and off, but other than that, the device is very point-and-shoot. The only other option to change is swapping out the slope and non-slope chips, which is a simple snap-out and snap-in. There aren’t a ton of bells and whistles here or fancy settings, so reading the manual really isn’t even necessary.
