I never thought I would ever have one DMB but Dr Teeth found us some at $300!!! At that price I had to buy it.I am jealous of you. I want that rangefinder.

Nice man, you could easily have a cheaper laser with a separate GPS for less than $500, but not for less than $300.I too am envious, that was a great buy. I use a Leupold GX-1 and am very happy with it, I have had it for 2 years and it is a solid unit. I do have SkyDroid on my phone and it gives me a very good GPS unit to compliment the GX-1. Not quite as convienient as the Bushnell Hybrid, but I do have less money in my set up.

Here is the THP review http://www.thehackersparadise.com/f...p-GPS-Hybrid-Review&highlight=bushnell+hybrid and I have heard of no issues with inaccuracy at all.I've heard the hybrid is not that good... Too bulky and sometimes gives inaccurate results. It is basically the neo attached to a Tour V2 rangefinder right?
I wouldn't have a problem buying anything Bushnell puts out. Good, reputable company that makes incredible products. I'm still waiting for something to happen to my 10-year old Yardage Pro so I can justify buying something else!I've heard the hybrid is not that good...

Awesome deal, I don't like having the GPS on my phone, I'm not sure why I just don't. The carts at my home course have built in GPS but since its cart path only right now that doesn't help you one bit.I caught the GX-1 on sale for $220 a couple of years ago and paid $3.95 for SkyDroid, of course I paid a lot more for the Samsung Infuse, but I was buying it anyway.
Great to hear War Eagle, did you use one with slope? I'm not sure I would like it, and if you can't turn it off then you can't post scores towards your HC.Used my uncles Bushnell rangefinder for a few rounds over the weekend. I decided to test it out and not load the gps on my phone to see how I liked it. I loved using it, and was able to get the distances to whatever I needed without problems.
Definitley want to grab a rangefinder now, and think the Bushnell with Slope is the way I want to go. Would probably still use the gps on the phone at times, but liked how simple it was to grab the bushnell, shoot the target and get the distance.

Don't forget that slope is not legal for tournaments or posting scores for handicap. That is quite a sacrifice IMO.
When the caddies walk the course to get yardages, do they use the slope version or the non-slope version? I hadn't thought about this before until all this slope talk got started recently!
I would doubt they use the slope feature but thats just a guess on my part. I think they take straight line yardages to everything and then talk the rest out between the caddie and player.When the caddies walk the course to get yardages, do they use the slope version or the non-slope version?

From my understanding, you can turn the Slope feature off on the V2. However, even with it turned off, it is still not permissible in a round which you count toward your handicap. With that said, I just cant see myself spending an extra $100 for the Slope feature when I know it cant be used.But you can turn off the slope feature on the V2. So it might be nice to use for one round so you know how many clubs you need to adjust for in future rounds, right? Plus you have it for when you play somewhere new and don't want to use it for a handicap round.
