Well Not sure what you mean by a Golfers range-finder. I had originally bought my Bushnell for Golf and now use it for archery. IUse a Sky Caddie for golf now, Satelite GPS

. You could concievably use a Sky caddie for target shooting but it would be useless in the field, under varying yardages.
The current line of Rifle, Archery, Golf..laser type, range finders, will all work across the board in most all sports where an unknown range needs found accurately.
