Our Review Summary of the Bushnell 1600 Laser Rangefinder with Pinseeker takes into consideration the reviews by users from several different websites. We observed commonly mentioned pros and cons within user reviews so that we can provide consensus based feedback about the Bushnell Pro 1600 . We also have calculated our GRS Score based based on user ratings from a variety of websites in order to help when making comparisons between golf rangefinders.

Keep in mind that there are two versions of the Bushnell 1600 Rangefinder: the Bushnell Pro 1600 Tournament Edition and the Bushnell Pro 1600 Slope Edition.  The only difference between the two is that the Tournament Edition does not include the slope measurement and is legal for use in competitions that have established a local rule allowing distance measuring devices. The slope model measures +/- one degree of angle, and compensated range, based upon ball trajectory and type of club used, but is not legal for use in competition.

Bushnell Tour V2 GRS Score: 9.26 out of 10 (185 reviews)

Most Mentioned Pros:

  • Accuracy
  • Compact
  • Fast
  • Long range
  • Feature Set
  • Scan Mode with Pinseeker – keeping the button depressed allows the pinseeker to tell the difference between foreground and background objects and circles the foreground object, which is usually the flag and locks in the yardage.
  • Comfortable eye piece (even with glasses)
  • Strong construction
  • 7x lens
  • Waterproof
  • Users who owned the Bushnell 1600 with Slope were happy with its performance. Recommended for hilly courses if you don’t plan to use it in competition.
  • Easy to use, but some noted that it took a little practice. Most felt that you didn’t have to be too steady, but a few had trouble initially.
  • Easy to read display
  • 9v battery
  • No annual fees

Most Mentioned Cons:

  • Price
  • Bulky Case
  • A few users noted that the battery door wasn’t very secure.
