GivingTuesday is a Chance to Help
GivingTuesday reimagines a world built upon shared humanity and generosity.
Our global network collaborates year-round to inspire generosity around the world, with a common mission to build a world where generosity is part of everyday life.
Whether it’s making someone smile, helping a neighbor or stranger out, showing up for an issue or people we care about, or giving some of what we have to those who need our help, every act of generosity counts, and everyone has something to give.

1. Colbalt Q 4 Slope Rangefinder - for golfers of all levels
$245
https://cobalt-golf.com/collections/rangefinders/products/q-4-slope-rangefinder
Designed for casual golfers and weekend warriors who are looking to up their skill level with a versatile, compact, and intuitive rangefinder, the Q-4 Slope 6x22 1300 yd Golf Rangefinder fits the bill.
Built around IPX7 waterproof construction, crystal clear optics, red and black display options, and a fully adjustable diopter, the Q-4 Slope is our latest rangefinder for those looking for a powerful ranging tool to serve any budget.
The Q-4 Slope features our unique Adaptive Contrast Display which allows users to choose between either an auto red/black or black-only display. Best used in low light conditions, the Adaptive Contrast Display allows for comfortable ranging without losing the reticle in the shadows. Conversely, for bright, sunny conditions, the black-only display easily cuts through high contrast targets allowing you to discern your readings in crisp detail.
A simple to use menu navigation removes any complications when you need to make quick changes on the course. A dedicated slope button conveniently allows you to switch on Slope Mode for precise slope-compensation during normal play as well as the ability to easily disengage Slope Mode to conform to USGA tournament regulations.

Jim Kwik said it best when he shared this about choosing Essentia: "It's passive. It's one of those things where we go online, and pick out our mattress, and then all of a sudden we don't have to think about it anymore. And
I like things like that. For other things we do to optimize different areas of our lives it takes energy or a tremendous amount of effort. But this, you get your Essentia and then it's done."
