Overview
Bushnell's Tour V5 is a golf laser rangefinder built around a switchable slope mode, letting one unit serve both tournament and casual rounds. It targets to the pin with a vibrating lock-on confirmation.
The Slope-Switch feature is the key detail: it lets one unit serve tournament rounds, where slope-adjusted distances are against the rules, and casual play, where they help with club selection. Bushnell markets Tour-Trusted status through PGA Tour player usage figures rather than independent test data, so that framing reads as brand positioning, not third-party verification. No customer review text was supplied with this listing.
- Slope-Switch toggles slope mode on or off
- Pinseeker with vibrating and visual lock confirmation
- BITE magnetic mount for cart bars
- Ships with one CR2 battery
Who it's for
Golfers who play both sanctioned and casual rounds and want one rangefinder that can switch slope on or off. Players who never compete under rules restricting slope, and just want a basic yardage number, don't need the switch.
Pros and cons
- Slope on/off for tournament and casual rounds
- Vibrating pin lock confirms flag distance
- Magnetic mount attaches to metal cart bars
- Runs on a single CR2 battery, not rechargeable
Performance notes
Slope-Switch technology toggles the unit between plain distance and slope-adjusted distance, with the mode disabled satisfying tournament rules that ban slope-adjusted readings. The Pinseeker function locks onto the flag and confirms the lock with a vibrating pulse and a flashing red ring in the display, meant to remove guesswork when background objects like trees sit near the pin. A magnetic BITE mount lets the unit clip directly to a metal cart bar for quick access between shots.
