NAVEE has expanded its golf technology range with the UK launch of the NAVEE MINI rangefinder, a compact laser designed to deliver fast and accurate distances on the course

Rangefinders have evolved rapidly over recent years, progressing from luxury accessories to an increasingly common part of a club golfer’s equipment. 

NAVEE has drawn on its experience of developing premium electric golf trolleys to produce the MINI. As the name suggests, it is designed as a compact, pocket-friendly alternative to many other rangefinders on the market. 

The MINI weighs just 116g, around 20% less than a conventional rangefinder. Its compact design makes it easy to carry throughout a round and operate with one hand. 

It can measure distances from five to 1,300 yards with ±1-yard accuracy, while 6x magnification makes distant targets clearer. Measurements are delivered in as little as 0.1 seconds, helping to prevent any interruption to a golfer’s pre-shot routine.

NAVEE MINI rangefinder: Practical technology for everyday golfers

The MINI also features Flag Lock technology, which has become a hallmark of modern rangefinders. Designed to identify and lock onto the flagstick in seconds, it provides vibration and visual confirmation when the target has been acquired. 

One of the NAVEE MINI’s key features is its Triangular Measurement technology. This allows golfers to measure the distance from their ball’s location rather than their current position, helping to save time between shots. 

The MINI also incorporates slope compensation, automatically accounting for uphill and downhill changes in elevation. This produces a slope-adjusted playing distance to assist with club selection. 

A dual-colour red and green OLED display is designed to remain clear in different lighting conditions, whether the rangefinder is being used during an early-morning or evening round. Its IP54 water-resistance rating also provides protection during everyday use on the golf course. 

The rangefinder is powered by a rechargeable lithium battery, with a charging time of two hours or less. 

In total, the MINI offers four operating modes: Scan, Flag Lock, Three-Point Measurement and Slope Compensation. Together, they give golfers greater flexibility when assessing distances and selecting a club.

About the author

Max Mcvittie

A bit of a late bloomer to the game of golf, Max fell in love with the sport when he attended Saturday coaching sessions down at his local golf club after being inspired by friends and family members.

Max has remained a member of Eden Golf Club in Carlisle for a number of years now as he looks to get his handicap down into single figures. Most of his golfing career has been spent battling a permanent slice off the tee, which has led to some ugly rounds.

Having studied at the University of Sunderland, Max is starting out his dream career in sports journalism. During his time at university, he picked up valuable work experience at Reach PLC, BBC Radio Cumbria and GiveMeSport, whilst also getting work published in the Teesside Live. He also spent time working at a local weekly newspaper, Eskdale and Liddesdale Advertiser, as a general news reporter partially covering some local sport just north of the border in Langholm.

Max has just started his journey with the NCG working as the assistant equipment editor. He looks forwarded to reviewing the latest golf equipment, taking up an interest in reviews when buying his first golf club, a Cleveland RTX wedge.

With his bag not going under too many changes throughout the last few years, Max carries an M3 driver, Titleist GT3 Fairway Wood, M2 hybrid, a set of M2 irons, Callaway Jaws wedges and a TaylorMade Spider putter. And yes, Max is a bit of a self-proclaimed TaylorMade fan boy.
