So, you’re looking for a Bushnell Golf Rangefinder?
Great choice, you’ve chosen one of the best brands in the world of golf. Bushnell golf rangefinders have been proven and tested by every golfer of all levels and ages around the world for many years.
Most tour players use Bushnells to test their gapping distances and map out the course before big events. Players Like Rickie Fowler use Bushnell Tour V4 Shift rangefinders. Any golfer wanting to progress their game to the next level would benefit from buying one of these amazing Rangefinders.
Knowing the correct distances for each shot could be the difference between making par and birdie. How many times have you hit your shot thinking it’s good and then you come up 10-20 Yards short? Just because you guessed the distance and used the wrong club. If you had used a golf rangefinder that wouldn’t have happened. You could save 2-3 shots per round, imagine what that can do for your handicap.
Why should you buy one?
I use my rangefinder which is the Bushnell Tour V3. I purchased mine because I’m terrible at judging distances from fairway to green, I don’t know if it’s my eye or I’m just a bad judge of distance.
Some competitions won’t allow you to use a rangefinder so check before buying one if that’s why you wanted one. But on all my practice rounds and rounds with friends, I use mine all the time.

What features should you look for?
Most of the Bushnell rangefinders come with their amazing PinSeeker Technology™ with JOLT provides the golfer with short vibrating bursts to reinforce that the laser has locked onto the flag. JOLT Technology eliminates all doubt.
You should also look for their Slope Switch technology which lets the golfer easily toggle in and out of our patented Slope function. This allows the golfer to conveniently utilize Slope to get compensated distances around the course when they want it and have a USGA conforming device that is legal for tournament play when they need it.
Battery life is one of my main concerns when buying any product that needs batteries. Thankfully most rangefinders nowadays have a great battery lifespan. If you’re buying an older or even secondhand Rangefinder it might be worth thinking about battery life.
Guarantees and manufactures warranties are also something to think about. All shops that sell any product in the UK will come with a one-year warranty, however, Bushnell believe in their product so much they now offer a two-year warranty with all new Rangefinders.
Which Bushnell Rangefinders are the best?
Bushnell has produced some fantastic golf rangefinders over the last 5 years or so and they have a Rangefinder for every price level.
Should you buy a new Bushnell Golf Rangefinder or a secondhand one?
We understand that golf is expensive, that was the whole reason why we started this website, to try and find suitable and affordable golf equipment for all golfers worldwide no matter what level of golf you play.
I couldn’t afford the Bushnell V4 so I purchased the V3 and I love it. However, if money wasn’t an issue I would have bought the Bushnell V4 Tour simply for the extra features you get.
