"I debated buying this for a long time for the price and for how much I’d use it. So glad I did it gets used way more than I thought! Checking rifle muzzleloader and my bow speed. So easy to use!"
"I have used the Garmin zero C1 once so far and it worked great. I like that it can sync up with an app on my phone. It consistently worked well and always captured speeds. The only thing I would change would be to incorporate the ability to pause a session while capturing the speed of another rifle and then come back to the original session and continue. This would allow all speeds for this rifle to be included for extreme spread and standard deviation calculations. It seems like this would be an easy thing to do in the app, but there isn’t that option. Overall a great product."
"Slick Chronograph. It's so small and sets up so easy. This is a huge upgrade from my old school chrono. I don't feel like I need the upgrades of the C2."
"The Garmin Xero C1 is a compact chronograph that has been easy to set up and use. The radar design means I do not have to worry about exact alignment or lighting conditions like with older chronographs. In bow mode, it has worked well so far, giving consistent readings and picking up arrow speeds without much adjustment. The interface is simple, and it is easy to look back at shot data. I am using it to collect velocity data to sync Leupold CDS turrets, which is the main reason I bought it for rifle use. I have not fully tested it with a rifle yet, but based on how it performs with a bow, I expect it to be consistent. Overall, it has been straightforward and reliable for what I need so far."
"Don’t know why I didn’t upgrade this piece of equipment years ago. Easy to setup and confirm velocities before shooting matches or hunting. Used this calculate dope for shots out to 900 yards accurately."
"Honestly, I’ve been holding off on buying this for a while because I struggled to swallow the price. When I saw the C2 drop and the price tag on it, I decided this wasn’t so bad after all, haha. Functionally, this has everything I want/need to track my arrow speeds and rifle ballistics. It also automatically calculates kinetic energy which is super helpful for dialing in ideal setup."
"Went into the GOHUNT shop to purchase this chronograph. The information that Norris gave me was paramount. The chronograph is really easy to operate but the information from the GOHUNT staff was very helpful. My suggestion is if you’re ever in there area and your looking at a technical piece of gear, weather its apparel or optics. Go see them and get there experience point of view. GOHUNTS customer service sets the bar. Thank you"
"So far it has been super helpful for building arrows and load development this spring. I just wish the battery life was better for the all day range sessions."
"Keeping this in my range bag has made a huge difference when finding a load that shoots well. Won’t go to the range without it."
