What’s the difference between laser hunting and golf range finders?

Jay asked:


I want to get a laser range finder for my first elk hunt but don't have much cash. I got a shot at getting a Bushnell X500 golf laser range finder for really cheap but need to know if it will work for getting range on elk/deer/pig for longer shots like even up to 3-400 yds if necessary. Thanks in advance.

Will a golf scope and rangefinder work for hunting as well?

walters2054 asked:


I am a bow hunter in need of a way to determine my distance from my stand to the deer. Lately I have noticed digital scope and rangefinders marketed towards the golfer to find the distance from him to the green. Has anyone used one of these for bow hunting or hunting in general? The reason I ask is that the hunting rangefinders are $200-500 and a golfer's scope/rangefinder are only about $50.
