Bushnell V5 Shift vs Blue Tees Series 3 Max: A detailed comparison

Just a few years back, when anyone would seek to buy a laser rangefinder, they’d find Bushnell, Garmin or Callaway or Perfect Caddy on the market. Candidly speaking, the value they offered was not proportionate to the price tag. A regular Joe golfer might feel priced out. This is where Blue Tees Golf comes in - to get you the best bang for buck rangefinder. Here’s how we stack up against the premium rangefinders. Let’s have a look.

Features

The flag is picked out very quickly with a minimum of fuss. You get the vibration to reassure you to complement the Flag Lock feature. The ‘slope adjustment ’ feature is impressively accurate and can be easily  disabled using the side button.

Features

The Bushnell V5 makes it as easy as possible to lock onto the pin. PinSeeker is indicated with a JOLT vibrating pulse and a flashing red ring when the target is locked in. True ‘play as distance’ is available with a new slope algorithm to account for uphill and downhill shots. The slope can be disabled using a button.  

Overall appeal 

The vivid display and slope tech is a standout feature. It also has a very strong and reliable built-in magnetic strip that allows you to attach it to the buggy frame for added convenience. Plus there are 2 extra CR2 batteries,  a lanyard, a mountaineering buckle, and a ticker in the premium leather carry case.

Overall appeal 

The display and accuracy are as good as you expect from a long-term market player. The integrated BITE magnetic technology works dependably well. However, it’s difficult to validate the $399 price tag.

Price: USD 269
