Top Pick

Bushnell Tour V6

The benchmark no-frills laser

The benchmark against which most laser rangefinders are measured. Bushnell’s JOLT technology — a short vibration burst when the laser locks onto the flag — remains the most reliable target confirmation in the category. Sharp, bright optics that hold up in low light. Compact enough to slip into a back pocket. No slope, no GPS, no app — just fast, accurate yardages delivered with confidence. The choice for golfers who want simplicity done to a high standard.

Key features

  • Visual JOLT — red ring flashes on flag lock for instant confirmation
  • IPX6 weather resistance — the most weather-resistant Tour series laser Bushnell has made
  • BITE magnetic mount for cart bar attachment
  • 6x magnification with fully multi-coated optics
  • Accurate to within 1 yard at up to 1,300 yards
  • Pairs with Bushnell Golf app for hole layouts and course flyovers
Bushnell Tour V6

Our view

The Tour V6 is what most UK club golfers actually need from a rangefinder. Fast lock-on, reliable JOLT confirmation, genuinely weather-resistant build, and a price that does not require justification. The Visual JOLT upgrade — a red ring that flashes alongside the vibration — adds real confidence at distance. The only reason to look elsewhere at this price is if you want slope for practice rounds, in which case the Tour V6 Shift at £349 adds exactly that. If you play competition golf and want one device that is always tournament-legal without switching anything off, this is the cleaner choice.

Pros

  • Visual JOLT is the most reliable flag confirmation in the no-slope category
  • IPX6 rating handles genuine British weather — rain, not just splashes
  • Compact and light at 241g — slips into a back pocket
  • Range of 1,300 yards is class-leading at this price point

Cons

  • No slope — if you want compensated distances buy the Tour V6 Shift instead
  • LCD display rather than OLED — adequate but not the sharpest in class
  • No Bluetooth or app connectivity beyond basic Bushnell Golf app pairing
