TecTecTec Ult-X Golf Rangefinder Review 2023

Of all the golf gadgets a player ought to have, a rangefinder is among the most important. You could get by without one in the past since many carts were equipped with GPS devices. Time has changed, however.

Many golfers now carry a golf GPS portable device or rangefinder with them. You’re increasing the difficulty of golf by having to guess distances or looking for sprinkler heads and hoping they’re correct without having one. In addition to helping you choose the right club, a rangefinder will facilitate play at a faster pace (which golf desperately requires).

• Rangefinders aren’t all the same, as you probably already know. We are always on the lookout for the newest and best golf accessories on our website and wanted to showcase a new rangefinder in 2023 that we love… the TecTecTec ULT-X rangefinder.
• From the older, VPRO500 version (which sold briskly for years), it is an impressive improvement.
• With TecTecTec’s rangefinder, they made a lot of improvements without setting their prices sky-high like some of their competitors. We are reviewing this brand new device in full here so make sure to keep reading for the full review if you want a rangefinder you can rely on for years to come.

This review examines the ULT- X rangefinder from TecTecTec.

A few years back, TecTecTec debuted its first rangefinder, the VPR500, which quickly became a trusted brand.

Having used the older device, I can attest to its strong durability, reliability, and affordability.

The ULT-X is even more amazing in 2022, as TecTecTec releases it with even more features. This product’s price increase pays off with up to 500+ more yards of distance, slope features, and more accuracy, in addition to target locking capabilities.

Features of the TecTecTec ULT- X Rangefinder

Here are the reasons the ULT-X rangefinder deserves a place at the top of our list.

Target Lock System

ULT-X’s “target lock technology,” which allows you to lock onto the flag at close ranges, is a big improvement over the VPRO500’s pin-seeker technology. It can also reach out to as far as 450 yards, and some hazards can be targeted from 1,000 yards!

The rangefinder works at any distance, even 1,000 yards away. While this may not be necessary for detecting water hazards or bunkers, it does point out that it works from any distance. It ensures that you will never have to worry about missing a flag again because its 6x magnification offers bright, clear views.

In addition to the pin sensor, this model has a feature that vibrates when the target is locked, ensuring you are on the right track. You will also hit the flag instead of a tree if you play a lot of wooded golf courses.

Personally, I greatly appreciate the ease of use of the “scan” feature. The target you are aiming for is easily visible and easy to identify.

Accurate To An Extreme Degree

Knowing how much trouble it can be to get an inaccurate reading from your rangefinder if you’ve used one before.

The scorecard gets ruined when I go for my device’s intended distance only to fly the green. I hate this. It won’t ever matter how accurate you are as long as you have the ULT-X.

With TecTecTec ULT-X, accuracy can be as high as .3 yards at a distance of 300 yards! Even more impressive is the fact that it is within .6 yards of the target from a distance of 600 yards.

Features Associated With Slopes

It is easier to score well when you have a rangefinder that also provides the slope reading in addition to the range. While slope features are only allowed in practice rounds, tournaments don’t allow them, but they are great for understanding how uphill/downhill slope affects gameplay.

The ULT-X’s faceplate can be easily detached for events if the faceplate needs to be removed. The slope feature is on in yellow, and off in black. By doing this, your device is clearly recognized by competitors as USGA-certified. In case you are contemplating competing in golf (whether in Tournaments or as a Member-Guest), don’t overlook this important feature because some events may not allow the use of rangefinders without the ability to turn them off.

Easily Operated + Durable

Finally, the TecTecTec ULT-X comes ready to use straight from the box. If you have a CR2 battery, you can install the unit into your rangefinder and get right to the course.

A sturdy carrying pouch and strap are included along with a carrying pouch, strap, cleaning cloth, and quick-start guide. It also comes with a lifetime warranty and lifetime customer service!

With this rangefinder, you won’t have to worry about your rangefinder being damaged by water or moisture. You can tell how solid it is just by holding it. We’ve reviewed a lot of rangefinders, but this one seems a little bit bigger than some of them.

Can slope-switching technology be beneficial?

TecTecTec Laser Rangefinders are designed with a slope-switch on/off switch that allows you to easily switch between them. TecTecTec ULT-X Golf Rangefinders are designed for those who enjoy playing golf on the go, as using the slope feature is not permitted in tournaments.

Turning on the slope feature is as simple as pulling the faceplate off the laser rangefinder. Activating the slope technology means that the front of the faceplate will appear yellow. In order to use the TecTecTec ULT-X Golf Rangefinder within tournaments and official league games, the faceplate must be pushed back into its original position and the slope technology will not operate.

Is there a way to disable slope?

With the faceplate flipped back, the yellow band will no longer be visible and slope mode can be turned off. The tournament is legal if the slope mode is turned off.

Are pin locks available for the TecTecTec Ult-X rangefinder?

To confirm that it has locked onto the flag, it gives a short vibration.

How far can ULT-X measure?

With the Ultra-X, distances of up to 1000 yards can be measured precisely.

How does scan mode work?

Using the scan mode, you can see and measure one by the distance from one spot to another. Making the right decision is easier with this tool.
