Bushnell’ s New

Tour Hybrid Laser Rangefinder, Plus GPS Distances

Two Distance Devices Rolled into One.
Editorial by Bill Cromwell

Bushnell’ s newest, and maybe its coolest piece of“ musthave” golf equipment, is its Tour Hybrid Laser Rangefinder, with slope compensation plus GPS distances. The new Tour Hybrid offers slope compensation distances and GPS distances to the front, center, and back of the green, plus laser distances to the pin, all viewable right in the high-resolution eyecup display. How cool is that?

It’ s great to have the exact laser distance to the pin and know the slope elevation changes to select the best club for the shot, but depending on the green characteristics, you don’ t always want to target the pin on approach shots. Often, players want to land shots short or long of the pin and let the ball feed to the cup. With the Tour Hybrid Laser, players now know the distances to the front, center, and back of the green, enabling them to target those areas of the green, allowing the ball to roll toward the pin and the distance needed for the shortest putt. It’ s great to have all these features built into one handheld device!
When using the exact laser distance to the pin, the Tour Hybrid features Bushnell’ s enhanced JOLT technology, providing strong vibration tactile feedback. A red flashing ring confirms when you’ ve locked onto the pin so you can fire away with confidence in your targeted distance.
Slope-Switch Technology
The new Tour Hybrid also allows golfers to easily toggle Slope mode on or off with its Slope-Switch Technology, enabling slopeadjusted distances when needed and USGA-conforming play when required. Both laser and GPS distances adjust seamlessly, giving you the flexibility to play your best in any setting.
