You have purchased a Leupold® GXTM Series digital laser rangefinder that has been crafted by Leupold's engineers and designers to be the best rangefinder on the market, and to provide you with years of solid performance on the course . Following are instructions detailing the proper use and employment of your GX Series rangefinder . To ensure top performance for the life of the product, please read these instructions before operating your GX-I or GX-II . About Leupold & Stevens, Inc.® It's a decidedly American story: in 1907, a young German immigrant named Fred Leupold set up a one-man shop at 5th and Oak Streets in Portland, Oregon, repairing optics for surveying equipment . The small company survived the First World War and the Great Depression . But it was the Second World War that would forever change the company . Working with the U .S . Army on a riflescope and the Navy on optics for use aboard ships, the engineers at Leupold learned the secrets of waterproofing and durable construction that would completely change the world of sports optics . Leupold & Stevens, Inc . is still family-owned, though the focus has turned from land surveying to helping people across the globe survey their environments with innovative, high-performance optics and accessories . Leupold® optics are renowned for their unchallenged ruggedness, absolute waterproof integrity, and their vastly superior optical quality . A century of observation and optical experience has gone into every product we produce, and we think the results are well worth the extra effort required to achieve this level of quality . 2 3 In true American style, the philosophical foundation laid in our early years has served us well as we've grown and changed over the decades . In fact, the firm's founder established the clarity of purpose that we see at Leupold & Stevens today: "We solemnly promise never to let down on quality, the customer is entitled to a square deal ." Markus Friederich "Fred" Leupold Accuracy The ranging accuracy of the GX series of rangefinders is +/- one yard/meter . The maximum effective range depends upon a number of factors including lighting conditions and air quality, but the most important factor is the reflectivity of the target . For most objects, the maximum distance is 600 yards, while for highly reflective targets, distances of 750 yards can be obtained . MaxiMuM Range Condition Reflective target (yd/m) trees (yd/m) Pin (yd/m) gx-i 750/675 600/550 350/318 gx-ii 750/675 600/550 350/318 4 5 How it Works The Leupold GX series of rangefinders emit a series of invisible, infrared energy pulses that are reflected off the selected target back to the optical unit . Stateof-the-art circuitry and precision computing circuits are used to calculate the distance instantaneously by measuring the time it takes for each pulse to travel from the GX rangefinder to the object and back . Surface texture, color, size, and shape of the target all affect reflectivity, which in turn affects the maximum range of the instrument . As a rule of thumb, brightly colored targets are much more reflective than darker targets, with black being the least reflective color . A shiny surface is more reflective than a dull surface . Smaller targets are more difficult to range than larger targets . Light conditions, haze, fog, rain, and other environmental conditions can all affect ranging performance . Any factor which degrades air clarity will reduce the maximum effective range . Bright lighting conditions (sunny) reduce the effectiveness, producing shorter maximum ranges than those possible on darker (overcast) days . The steadier the GX unit is held, the greater the maximum distance . Specification The GX Series of digital laser rangefinders provides a variety of useful modes to tailor performance to the conditions you experience in the field .

FUNCTIONS 4 & 5: CLUB SELECTOR & DISTANCE INPUT (GX-II ONLY) When activated, the Club Selector function recommends the proper iron for the current distance, shot angle, environmental conditions, and multiple other factors . This will be shown by a pointer leading to the appropriate club on the right side of the display . If the TGR distance falls between two particular clubs, or is too long/short for any of the available distances, this will be indicated as well . For example, if the TGR distance falls directly between your 5-iron and 6-iron, each of the clubs will be highlighted, as well as the pointer between them . P 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 16 17 If the TGR distance is only slightly longer than ideal for your 6-iron, the 6-iron will be highlighted along with the pointer beside the 6-iron and the pointer between the 5-iron and 6-iron . P 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 If the TGR distance is only slightly shorter than ideal for your 5-iron, the 5-iron will be highlighted along with the pointer beside the 5-iron and the pointer between the 5-iron and 6-iron . 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 P For shots longer than recommended with a 2-iron, the 2-iron will be highlighted and the 3 closest pointers will flash . 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 P The same is true for shots under the recommended distance for your pitching wedge; the pitching wedge will be highlighted and the 3 closest arrows will flash . P 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 18 19 To activate the Club Selector, TGR must be activated . Use MODE to navigate through the Quick Set Menu until the Club icon is flashing; the lower display will show whether it is on or off . Press POWER to toggle the Club setting on or off . Press MODE to save your selection and move to the next function . Critical to accurate club recommendations is the known striking distance of the user with specific clubs . By inputting the actual distance obtained with a few clubs, a specialized algorithm accurately determines the distance obtained with others . The actual distance obtained from an 8-iron, 6-iron, and 4-iron shot should be input as accurately as possible . If no club distance is input, the Club Selector will automatically default to the preset distances (130 yards for an 8-iron, 150 yards for a 6-iron, and 170 yards for a 4-iron) . In addition to the striking distances, the temperature and altitude at which these distances were measured must be input following the distance input process . By entering the environmental conditions in which the specific distances were obtained, the Club Selector will be able to adjust the recommended iron according to the current conditions . NOTE: Though we strongly recommend inputting the specific distances obtained with each of the irons mentioned above, the specialized algorithms used by the GX-II will make logical assumptions about the remaining club(s) if specific distances are not known for one or more of the remaining clubs. TGR and the Club Selector must be activated to input the specific distances achieved with each club . After activating both TGR and the Club Selector, pressing and releasing MODE will begin the process of entering your specific 8-iron distance . The 8-iron symbol and pointer will be highlighted, as will the last saved distance for this club . Press POWER to begin incrementing through the 8-iron distance settings .

When your selection is shown in the upper numeric display, press MODE to save your selection and move onto the 4-iron . NOTE: You cannot input a distance value less than or equal to the previous club. For example, if you choose 155 yards for your 8-iron, the lowest available distance for your 6-iron will be 160 yards. The 4-iron symbol and pointer will now be highlighted . Press POWER to begin incrementing through the 4-iron distance settings . The default setting is 170 yards . Pressing POWER will increment through a range of 100 yards to 240 yards in 5-yard/meter increments . When your selection is shown in the upper numeric display, press MODE to save your selection and move on to the temperature input (the temperature at which these distances were measured) . NOTE: You cannot input a distance value less than or equal to the previous club. For example, if you choose 175 yards for your 6-iron, the lowest available distance for your 4-iron will be 180 yards. Once the specific distances obtained with each of the clubs above has been input, you will be asked to input the temperature and elevation at which these distances were obtained . Following the input of your measured 4-iron striking distance, the next depression of MODE will begin the process of entering the temperature at which this distance was obtained . The last saved temperature will be flashing in the bottom portion of the display . Press POWER to begin incrementing through the temperature settings . The default setting is 75 degrees F . Pressing POWER will increment through a range of 30 degrees to 120 degrees F in 5 degree increments .
