RangefindersBushnell Pinseeker Pro XM Jolt (laser rangefinder)Specs and who it suits
Updated: Sep 12, 2026Contains affiliate links
A Bushnell laser rangefinder. A slide switch on the side toggles between slope and straight-line modes, so there's no doubt about tournament use. Light at 192g, with USB-C charging good for about 3,000 measurements. The weakness is price: ¥67,300 on Rakuten is ¥7,500 below the official store's ¥74,800, but it's still the most expensive of the five models compared here.

What this rating is based on
This rating is based on the maker's official specs (loft, head volume, adjustability) and actual selling prices on Rakuten Ichiba and the official store.

Who it doesn't suit
Anyone who puts price first. Even at the Rakuten price, it's the most expensive of the five models here.
Check before you buy
Whether slope display can be switched on and off, and how it charges.
If a test shot or two feels long, that may just be the good end of your normal spread. Hit 10 balls with the same club and your distances will vary by 20 yards or more. So hit 10 and look at both the average and the spread.
FAQ (rangefinders)
Should I buy a laser or a GPS?
Need accuracy to the pin? Go laser. Want to see the whole course? Go GPS.
Will a rangefinder lower my scores?
Knowing the distance changes nothing if you can't hit that distance. First, learn your carry and spread for each club.
Can I use it in competition?
Some competitions require slope (elevation) readings to be off. Choose a model that can switch it off.
