Abstract
A golf ball range finder that rests in either a custom leveled and aligned pin, or a standard pin of a golf green, and rotationally and vertically aligns a laser range finder onto all the golf balls in the vicinity. The golf ball range finder has mechanisms to align it vertically, horizontally and to adjust for differences in the depth of the pin so that its rotational axis resides collinear with a vertical axis passing through the midpoint of the pin.
