Rangefinders don’t last forever. While Bushnell models tend to hold up better than most, 2025 has introduced some meaningful upgrades worth considering, especially if your current model is starting to feel slow, glitchy or hard to see.

We tested 35 rangefinders across accuracy, speed, optics, display and features. Here’s how the four Bushnell models in this year’s test performed.

Bushnell Pro X3+ LINK

The Pro X3+ LINK is Bushnell’s most feature-rich rangefinder. It not only gets the award for best Bushnell rangefinder in our test but was best overall rangefinder of 2025. It integrates slope with environmental elements (like temperature and altitude), wind data via the app and Bluetooth syncing with the Bushnell Golf app for personalized club suggestions.

The Bushnell was accurate in every scenario (even with complex backgrounds and from longer distances). We also found it to be one of the fastest in the test. Clear optics make it easy to lock onto flags. The only downside is that it’s a bit heavy for walkers.

What it’s known for:

Slope with wind and “elements” adjustments App integration with Bluetooth for club suggestions Dual display, locking slope switch, and IPX7 waterproofing 7x magnification and long range (600+ yards to flag)

Bushnell Tour Hybrid

Bushnell’s Tour Hybrid was the second-best Bushnell rangefinder in the test. It’s a little less expensive than the Pro X3+ LINK and it includes GPS integration. You’ll get yardages to the front, center and back of the green directly in the viewfinder.

The accuracy of the Tour Hybrid was noted throughout testing. If you can’t decide between a rangefinder or GPS, this is a strong choice.

What it’s known for:

GPS data in the display (not via a separate device) Slope-enabled laser and GPS readings Integrated magnet and 6x magnification Weather resistant (IPX6)

Bushnell Tour V6 Shift

The Tour V6 is lightweight, fast and easy to use. Its optics will likely not be as clear as the higher-end models and it’s not going to have as many features. However, if all you care about is a reliable number to the pin and you don’t want to pay $599 for that, the V6 is a great choice.

What it’s known for:

Reliable slope technology with on/off switch Simple layout with fast target lock Durable design and bright optics Integrated magnet and weather resistance

Bushnell A1-Slope

The A1-Slope is Bushnell’s smallest laser rangefinder. It’s designed for golfers who want a compact option without sacrificing slope accuracy. The compact size makes it a good choice for walkers. It’s a good pick for minimalists who want a Bushnell at a better price.

What it’s known for:

Ultra-compact and lightweight Rechargeable battery (50+ rounds per charge) Tour-trusted slope with on/off toggle PinSeeker with JOLT and magnetic cart mount

Final thoughts

Bushnell offers quite a few good options in 2025 but if you want to look outside of this brand, take a look at our complete 2025 Best Golf Rangefinder test: Best Golf Rangefinders of 2025.
