In a bid to challenge for the title of the best rangefinder of 2024, Gamin has unveiled the Approach Z30 rangefinder, where a trusted formula meets new technology to produce a rangefinder it thinks will change the game.
Four years after the release of the impressive Garmin Approach Z82 rangefinder, the Approach Z30 rangefinder boasts ultra-clear optics with a 6x zoom and 400 yards of range, said to lock onto a target in under a second. Aside from the fast and precise readings promised, it’s the addition of a new Range Relay feature that has us the most excited about the launch of this new product, which is on sale now.

After pairing the Approach Z30 rangefinder with the Garmin Golf app or one of the brands other devices, such as the Approach S70 watch, the rangefinder will transfer the information to the other device, giving the golfer a clear display of the yardage, pin position on the green as well as any other danger around the green such as hazards.
This communication between the devices is something we think is really going to benefit golfers, knowing which pins they can attack and which shots they should play with a little more caution. All in all, it helps golfers paint a really clear picture of what they need to shot-by-shot in order to shoot better scores.

The Garmin golf range is a collection of golf products designed to improve your game through data and the compatibility of the Approach Z30 and other devices should a go long way to helping you make better decisions.
Alongside the impressive Range Relay function, the Approach Z30 will also feature the brand’s trusted PlaysLike technology, which gives golfers a better understanding of the distance their shot actually plays after factoring in elevation changes as well as more advanced factors such as air density and wind speed. While all of this is great when playing socially and in practice rounds, using this setting is against tournament golf rules, but can easily be clicked off via a click of a button.
