Keep in mind that there are two versions of the Bushnell Pinseeker 1500: the Bushnell Pinseeker 1500 Tournament Edition and the Bushnell Pinseeker 1500 Slope. 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.
