Bushnell Tour V2 Rangefinder - How To Operate

I am going to give you a run down on how to operate the Bushnell Tour V2 Rangefinder. Why this particular model, because this is the one I now own, and have used on the course. I am no expert, but I can get what I need.

I have had some questions come by my mail lately on how to operate a golf rangefinder properly. Will this work for every laser rangefinder on the market of course not, but it will give you a real good understanding of other models as well.

The yardage may differ from model to model but in general, you can see a target much easier if it has a reflector on it. The Bushnell on a cloudy day you can do 500-700 easy enough, maybe a little bit of a stretch at 700 yards with no reflectors, 500 yards for sure. Rain, fog, sunny day they will of course affect your yardage.

The unit works better on a cloudy or not so bright of a day, like any time you look into the sun, no real different for the rangefinder the sun affects the readings being taken. The unit will still will operate quite nicely on a nice sunny day.

The optics are good in this unit, but if you are looking right into the sun, the sun will win.

You will learn what the battery indicator is on this unit; it is somewhat hard on batteries. I am not out often really, once a month, sometimes driving range in-between and the battery has been changed twice already. Not impressed with the battery life it could be much better, what can you do, I carry extra batteries with me when I use mine.

Like any optical unit with a magnification, you turn the eyepiece to focus in on your target, I am sure this will be universal with all units.

Ok taking a reading, this may be the hard part for most holding the unit steady, honest for me no problem, but my hands do not shake a bit, they are very steady. I still find myself using two hands though. If need be this unit has a place to attach a tripod stand to take your readings.

Turn the unit on, face it at the target focus on the target press the button once and the LCD comes up, aim at the target line it up and then simply press the power button down and hold it down until you see your reading in the bottom then let go. When the laser is working you will see cross hairs surrounding the aiming circle, you will see what I mean, then it will go away, it is not broken it does that.

Now if your wanting the flag and there is a lot of background noise, trees maybe people whatever you switch the mode by pressing the mode button on top of the unit you will see a flag in the corner of the LCD display.

Now you take the unit and move it slowly not to slow but not too fast, you will see what I mean when doing this. Move the unit slowly until you get the flag holding down the power button the flag in the corner of the unit will have a circle around it, indicating you have the distance to the flag and nothing else.

It works quite nice actually, when you have other objects in the way this is a nice touch, all golf rangefinders have this mode all called something different. Bushnell calls there the PinSeeker Mode.

I hope this helps in using your golf rangefinder the next time out, if I left something out, let me know need more info leave a comment. Of course, different models will have different features and work a bit different, but not by much. Practice, practice and practice more you will get use to it, I promise.
