Precision Meets Innovation
At the heart of the Pinmaster II Pro is Leica’s advanced optical system, offering 7x magnification and a wide field of view of 115 meters at 1,000 meters. This ensures clear and accurate distance measurements up to 750 meters. The device features Angle Compensated Distance (ACD™) technology, which accounts for terrain slope and the golf ball's trajectory, providing golfers with adjusted distances for more informed club selection.
Leica's improved First-Target Logic enhances measurement reliability by focusing on the nearest target, reducing errors from background objects. A visual signal confirms successful target acquisition, adding confidence to each measurement.
Design and Durability
The G/Fore edition stands out with its sleek, high-quality white body, reflecting G/Fore’s modern aesthetic. The rangefinder's carbon-fiber-reinforced housing is both lightweight and robust, weighing approximately 6.5 oz (185 g) including the battery. It's watertight up to a depth of 3.2 feet (1 meter), making it suitable for various weather conditions.

The device features an LED display that automatically adjusts brightness based on ambient light, ensuring readability in diverse lighting conditions. Additionally, the AquaDura® lens coating repels water and dirt, maintaining clear optics throughout play.
User Experience
Operating the Pinmaster II Pro is straightforward, with a single-button interface that activates the rangefinder and initiates measurements. The device supports both yards and meters, catering to user preferences. Its ergonomic design and diopter compensation adjustment make it comfortable for all users, including those who wear glasses.
The G/Fore x Leica Pinmaster II Pro laser rangefinder is a fusion of cutting-edge technology and stylish design. Its precise measurements, user-friendly features, and durable construction make it a valuable tool for golfers seeking to enhance their game. While it comes at a premium price point, the quality and performance it offers justify the investment for dedicated golfers.
