In the GPS rangefinder industry, you have many product options, but we tend to stick with Bushnell here at Eighteen Under Par. The Bushnell Pro X2, new for 2017, features a rubber armored metal housing that makes the device fully IPX7 waterproof and with range capabilities of up to 1,300 yards (450+ yards to a flag), 2nd Generation E.S.P. (Extreme. Speed. Precision.) and PinSeeker with JOLT Technology. This helps golfers confirm that the flag has indeed been locked on and that they will have the exact distance that they’re looking for. Not only will distances be locked on, but they will be provided five times faster and more accurately with the new E.S.P. technology. Dual Display Technology also allows users to easily toggle between the bright red display featuring VDT (Vivid Display Technology) or the crisp black display.

For something that will be easier on the wallet from Bushnell, you can take a look at The Excel, their most advanced GPS watch. It comes pre-loaded with more than 35,000 courses and complies with ESGA rules. Furthermore, It’s equipped with Bluetooth capabilities allowing the golfer to use the Bushnell Golf App to get course updates without needing to sync with a computer. You’ll even receive call, messaging and calendar notifications on your watch! Overall, The Excel is an easy-to-use GPS rangefinder with instant yardage measurements in a simple, fashion-forward design and with no membership fees.
With app integration, full color aerial views of hole layouts with distances are available through the Bushnell Golf smartphone app. Battery life lasts around 3 full rounds before needing to be charged. A full front optical mounted color display with auto brightness adjustment is also featured.
