Find a golfer friend who owns a laser range-finder, and borrow it for a day! The one I own (Bushnell Pinseeker) can easily measure targets from 5-1,500 yards with excellent accuracy. Now if it could

If you could stretch a string and measure it, why not get a cheap Horrible Freight 100 yard/meter fiberglass tape measure? I have one; low tech but it works fine. Sorry about it's not being a range f
