That's a great deal. I highly recommend this little chrono. I have been using mine since they came out and it has been nothing short of flawless.

Is this in store only? It's still full price on their site. Or is this just on Friday?

This is a good deal. Also Scheels will have the Garmin for $400 which is also good...

Check the black friday sale ad. It's not that price yet though

EDIT: I can't find this price now though I was sure I saw it last night. Must have been a dream?

You probably saw the "golf" Garmin ($399) which looks real similar to the Xero.

Does the Athlon work just like the Xero, or similar? Are these chronographs really worth this kind of money?

I used a buddies to check it out and very easy to use and does everything I wanted. One thing of note is he said the Athlon and the Garmin varied about 10 fps in his experience. That was the only feedback I was given on it.

Thanks. I mean ya, the size, portability, and ease of use would be really nice. I have an old ProChrono that I've used on top of a tripod for both bows and rifles and it's been pretty accurate. I normally average 10-20 rounds to come up with speeds for my dope charts, and so far that's been really close when I verify at 400-600 yards. Just a pain to haul that big tripod and ProChrono around every time I want to check speeds.

Absolutely. I went from an old Prochrono to the Athlon. No need to drag a tripod and fiddle fart around setting it up and lining it up. The case for the Athlon can fit in a coat pocket and it literally takes under one minute to set it up and start shooting. Mine has not missed catching a single shot since I started using it. And no variability based on sunshine/clouds like the optical chronographs. Truly some of the best money I’ve spent.
