Has anyone ever used the Bushnell Tour V2 (standard or slope edition) or another one of their rangefinders? Are they really good or are there better ones out there? I'm not really interested in the GPS rangefinders but I have been eying up a laser rangefinder for quite some time now. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I agree. Something about the GPS ones I just don't trust. I love that I am in control with pointing the Bushnell at the target and having it come up. As far as alternatives, take a look at the Laser Link Red Hot rangefinder. I have heard nothing but good things about it. Its the point and shoot one like a gun, you just line up the laser with the site and put it on your target

Yes I have and use the Tour V2.  Choose it over it's bigger brothers because it is smaller and lighter.  I love it.  Nothing bad to say about it.  Just get one, can't imagine you will be sorry !

I have a Tour V2 without the slope. Its great. I use it to measure anything from hazards from the tee (bunkers, water). You can use it to find distance to hazards and distance to carry hazards. Its great for distance to the pin and picks the flag up easily in pinseeker mode. I play with friends who use GPSs and find they can be out and they are a pain for any hazard distances. It also makes me slow down and think about my shot more. Take more concern in club selection. Given the choice between a GPS or Rangefinder I take the rangefinder every time.

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
