Technology
One thing is for sure; with it, you’ll get an unprecedented performance and impressive measurement distances. One thing that definitely puts this device on the throne is the dual display technology which makes it possible to choose from a bright red display or black display in accordance with the lighting conditions or your own preferences. In addition to this, it features the patented JOLT technology, the one that makes you certain that it has locked onto a flag once you feel the vibrations. When you have the slope mode on, you will have measurements that are based on the degree of the slope which is much more accurate. However, this feature is not in accordance with USGA regulations, so you have the Slope-Switch technology which turns off the slope mode.

Use
There is a power button which activates the display; aim the circle toward the target and hold the button down until the range is displayed in the bottom. Once you get the reading, you can release the power button. To switch the modes, or to receive new measurement pres the power button again and repeat the procedure. To switch from slope to non-slope mode just slide the button on the left up and down. The 6x magnification can be controlled by rotating the eyepiece while the display is in focus.

Design
One more feature that distinguishes this device from the others is the fully waterproof property due to rubber armored metal housing which protects is. Regardless of the weather conditions, you will be able to use it without being afraid that you might get it damaged. It is small and compact, but it is a bit heavier compared to other models because of a metal housing. With the purchase of this rangefinder, you get the Bushnell app that provides you with more than 36,000 courses, including 3D flyovers, holes layouts and distances.

Cost and Value
This is an amazing premium rangefinder that will provide avid golfers with everything they need for a flawless game. It features all possible technologies that make a rangefinder exceptionally fast, accurate, durable and easy to use. Plus, it comes with a two-year warranty against any defects in materials and workmanship. For such a performance and with so many attributes it is not easy to guess that it comes with a premium, high-end price.

Technology
With Bushnell can nothing surprise us, so this combination of laser and a GPS into one device makes things much easier and much more accurate. This is the world’s first rangefinder that has a display which provides the measurements taken from both, the laser and the GPS. It also features the distinctive JOLT technology that is super accurate and which yields super accurate measurements of the pins with 5x magnifier up to 400 yards. Once the flag has been confirmed, there’re vibrating pulses that notify the golfer.

Use
To set and operate the device there are four buttons on the side of the display, including the 36,000 courses that have internal storage. The update of the stored courses can be carried out through the Bushnell app that connects the device with your smartphone. On the course, you get the front and the back yardage and there is another function that measures individual shots. The GPS screen is powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery and can be charged through a USB cable, whereas the laser works on CR2 battery. This double powering approach means that in case you forget to charge the USB, the laser will still work.

Design
Compared with the Tour V4 models that we will talk about below, this one looks bulkier, but that is kind of expected since there are actually two devices into one. It comes with a case and a carabineer bag clip, a charger for the GPS, two CR2 batteries for the laser, lens cleaning cloth and a microfiber towel.

Cost and Value
It has always been better two have two instead of one, and it is even better to have the two into one. When they created this device they knew what they were doing and that’s the reason why over 90% of tour players have chosen this model to rely on. The price tag is indeed hefty; however, the certainty that you’ll get the best of the best makes it a good value.

Technology
There are several technologies that are used to provide golfers with the exact data they need. JOLT technology is what distinguishes the later Bushnell models from the others on the market. As we have already described this technology in the previous two models, we will just remind you that it confirms a found flag once the laser has locked onto it by providing vibration bursts. The slope compensation technology is able to calculate and adjust the yardage distance in accordance with the degree of the slope. However, to make it tour appropriate you can just switch it to a non-slope mode. And it also features Stable-Grip technology that eliminated blurred imaging that arises from an unsteady hand.

Use
It is very easy to use since practically there’s just one power button that you need to downpress it and wait for a while to get the measurement or to switch through modes. On the right side, there is a slide button that regulates the slope option by just gliding it up and down. It is very long-ranging, capturing distances to up to 1000 yardages with 5x magnifier and inconsistency rate of +/- 1 yardage. You can range to targets that are even beyond the green such as hazards, but what you need to know that JOLT feature refers only for flags. The Bushnell golf app comes included with the purchase of this model.

Design
It is compact, smaller and lighter and fits perfectly in any hand. It is built by high-quality materials that make it able to withstand bouncing and light impacts. Plus it comes with a case, a battery, and a protective silicone cover.

Cost and Value
This model isn't inexpensive at all, but all good things come with a price, don't they? What you'll get for the price are accuracy and reliability and that is what matters the most.

Technology
Dual Display Technology makes this device much more different than many others since it can easily adapt to different lighting conditions and display bright red display or black display. This model features Exchange Slope Technology meaning that you can go from slope to no slope mode. However, the switching isn’t that easy since you need to replace the red faceplate which has the slope on with the black faceplate that conforms to USGA regulations of no-slope mode on. This model also features JOLT technology that makes it vibrate when it locks onto a flag.

Use
The standard way to use the device is to press the power button to activate the display, and then you need to aim toward the target hold it until you get the measurements and that’s it. If you want to make an additional measurement press the power button once and repeat the procedure. In order to use the slope mode you need to place the red faceplate and in order to use the non-slope mode, you’ll need to replace it with the black one, which is not as simple as the newer model. The 6x magnification range can be controlled with the rotation of the eyepiece.

Design
It is a small and compact unit that fits any hand. It has a rubber grip that has anti-slip properties. It comes with a protective silver case which can be attached on a hanger and a carry pouch for easier transport plus the red and black faceplates.

Cost and Value
This is an excellent rangefinder that brings to display everything you need to measure, i.e. the exact location in all lighting conditions. It has an exceptional accuracy that ranges to up to 1300 yards and 450 yards to the flag with 6x magnification. And since this an older model, you can have it for a lower price compared to the one when it first appeared on the market.

Technology
Experienced golfers and top players know that in order to achieve top results you need to have top-notch functional equipment that will aid your performance and won’t expose you to an unnecessary burden. This model is designed to make your game exact and mathematically precise when it comes to calculating distance. The JOLT technology, one of the coolest in this range, is able to acquire the target beyond trees and hard terrains with maximum precision of the yardage without having to check it twice. The magnifier that has the capacity of 5x zoom is able to provide you with a clear image of the flagstick and its yardage at the first try and you'll know it is the right thing because you feel the vibrations that confirm the distance.

Use
Tour V4 is able to provide you with measures in meters and yards. Fiddling through measurements is very easy and the only thing you need to do is just to hold pressed the power button until vibrations are felt. Switching through modes requires the same action, pressing, holding, vibrations, and you are all set. If you want to refocus the scope you can use the magnification slider which is placed on the side of the scope by just using your finger. With the purchase of Tour V4, you get the app to connect it with your smart device. It has some super cool features such as access to more than 36,000 courses, including 3D flyovers with distances and hazards.

Design
The general impression, the color, and the design, everything looks and feels hi-tech and sophisticated. It has an ergonomic shape and it is smaller than some previous models. It comes with a carry case that has a great silver design with a red zip. There is a clip on it that can be attached to your bag.

Cost and Value
This American based company is reputed for producing the most trustworthy rangefinders in the world. The quality is undisputed since this device will provide accuracy to 1 yard; it ranges from 5 to 1000 yards and 400+ yards to a flag. It has 5x magnifier and the focus system is very fast. If you are a serious golfer than even though expensive, it is totally worth the money.

Technology
In order to provide you with the exact measurements, it features extreme speed precision technology. There is a build in inclinometer that features different ARC displays that indicate the aim, the bow mode (this one is for hunters), the laser activity, numeric display, a bull’s eye mode, etc. As advanced as it is, it will show you the exact angle through -/+ 90 degrees of elevation and that is the problem-solving feature for golfers of how to bypass inclines due to their extremity. It gives distances in both measurements, yards, and meters. There are several targeting modes, such as Selective Mode that allows for adjustment in relation to the environment and the weather conditions. Among the other useful modes is the Automatic scan which is able to scan reflective objects or the Bull’s eye indicator that provides targeting small objects without considering the background.

Use
It is activated by pressing the power button. To switch and select modes you need to press the power button and release it immediately. For different modes the instructions to activate them are different, so we will mention just the ones that are useful for golfers. For example, if you want to activate the Automatic scan mode you should hold the power button down for a few seconds and then swiftly go through multiple objects and the device will record the yardage among all of them. Bull’s eye indicator will be activated when you align it on the target and by slowly moving the beam over the target until the crosshair matches with the bull’s eye.

Design
The device is very thin and durable even though it is made of plastic. It is very lightweight and compact and is totally waterproof. It can be used in freezing conditions and the design features easy to hold grip. It is available in black or real tree design.

Cost and Value
This is an excellent rangefinder which offers excellent performance in every lighting and weather conditions. It has many hunting features; however, it is perfectly appropriate to be used for golf too. And compared to many golf only rangefinders, this one has a very reasonable price too.

Technology
There are two remarkable technologies that are used in the production of this model. The first one is the well-known JOLT technology that we have so much talked about. Just for the reminder, this technology is super accurate in searching for pins and once it has locked onto a flag it starts vibrating. The distance range for flags is 400 yards. Another technology that marks this device is the Slope Technology that provides measurements on slopes. Since the new tour regulations now allow using rangefinders that have the slope mode turned off, you don’t have to be worried if you are breaking the regulations anymore.

Use
It is extremely easy to use. What you need to do is to just press down the power button to activate the display and then aim it toward the target. You will get the distance in no time with incredible precision of one yard. It also features 5x magnifier that will provide a better and crystal clear image.

Technology
The main technology featured in this model is JOLT technology. It seems that this technology dominates the latest Bushnell devices and there is a good reason for that. Not only is it award winning but it is the fastest way to get the right measurements. When it has locked onto a flag the device vibrates, confirming that the distance is correct without picking up background targets. It is able to acquire distances up to 1000 yards, or when it comes to flags, the maximum distance range is 400 yards. Since it doesn’t depend on reflectors, it is able to provide distance to bunkers, trees, literally anything on the golf course.

Use
The way you use this rangefinder is fairly easy and isn’t complicated at all. To activate it, you’ll need to press the power button. Once it gets activated, you need to aim it toward the desired target and in no time you’ll get the right measurements by feeling the vibrations. To proceed to the next target, what you need to do is to repeat the procedure. In order to get the targets closer to you, the eyepiece features 5x magnification that brings the objects closer by rotating it.

Design
Since this is a V4 model from the same line, it resembles the similar V4 models in its design and size. It is very compact and lightweight and it fits perfectly into any palm. It has a rubber grip on the top and the bottom in order to prevent slipping. The package includes a metal casing that can be hanged on the golfer’s bag, a battery and a silicone protective skin.

Technology
The GPS integrated locator is swift and fairly accurate to provide the golfers with the exact distance to courses. Once you have selected the right course it will further display readings of the green yardage and front and back distances. The screen is very readable and bright and it has unobstructed visibility even in the brightest sunshine. It features Bite mount technology, i.e. there’s an integrated magnet on the back that allows you to attach it on your golf back or on any metal surface or to attach the clip to hang it on your belt.

Use
It is one of the easiest to use GPS rangefinders. After you turn it on you’ll wait for about 30 seconds to get the signal and you'll have the courses displayed. In the middle, with big black numbers, you have the green yardage displayed and below you’ll see the front and back distances. When you push the ‘Select’ button, the nearest hazards are displayed, two at a time. There are several abbreviations that tell you what is what, some of them being easily comprehensible, such as LGB which means Left Green Bunker. There is a shot measurement option that provides the measurements of drives and approaches.

Design
It has a very stylish and small design that comes in four different colors, red, blue, yellow and black. It charges via mini USB cable and once charged it has the capacity for several rounds. It is a bit bulkier compared to the Ghost but that’s due to the magnet on the back. All in all, it is a handy and practical device.
