Affordable Golf Rangefinder with Premium Features: Bushnell A-1 Slope

My biggest gripe with most laser rangefinders is the battery. You never knew when the 9v or CR2 battery would die, and inevitably it would go out in the middle of a tournament round or something and I’d have to find a place to buy a new one. Bushnell has fixed that issue with their new A-1 Slope rangefinder, because it has a built-in rechargeable battery. They are claiming 50+ rounds of golf between charges, which is plenty for any golf rangefinder, but with most golf carts having USB ports these days and some golf bags even having pockets for batteries to charge your devices, you don’t have to worry about the battery dying on you mid-round. Just plug it in the night before your important tournament and you’ll be good to go.

The other feature I love is the magnet, which on the A-1 Slope rangefinder comes in the form of a silicone sleeve, which gives you the option to use the magnetic mount, or remove it from the protective skin and simply keep it on your pocket or golf cart cup holder. You can do this because this golf rangefinder is tiny! I’m not a minimalist or anything, but I do appreciate light weight and compact size, especially when traveling abroad and overweight luggage fees hit hard.

Bushnell is well aware that their products aren’t the cheapest, but when it comes to technology and quality, those cheap golf rangefinders from Amazon just can’t compete. If you are looking for a less expensive rangefinder option, give the Bushnell A-1 Slope a try. At a price point of $299 it makes a great gift because it’s budget friendly without sacrificing quality and has the premium features you expect from the market leader in golf rangefinders.
