I’m not a brand loyalist when it comes to golf. I have a Ping driver and woods, Mizuno irons, TaylorMade wedges and a Scotty Cameron putter. However, when it comes to my rangefinder, I feel naturally drawn towards Bushnell. I view the likes of Titleist, TaylorMade and Callaway amongst others largely as equals when it comes to hardware, but I view Bushnell as the leaders of the laser rangefinder market.
They have plenty of competition to fend off in the battle to deliver the best golf rangefinders - Garmin are circling like sharks, Blue Tees have seriously upped their game with very exciting releases in the works for 2026, and those are just two of over a half dozen rival brands jostling for your custom. The Pro XM is Bushnell’s second laser release of the year and given how impressed by the Tour V7 Shift earlier this year, I was excited to take it out at Royal County Down to put it through its paces.
