How slope works on this model

The Tour Hybrid uses Laser slope + GPS.

The laser first measures the direct line-of-sight distance. The slope system then uses elevation information to estimate a playing distance.

Uphill shots generally receive a longer adjusted distance than the direct reading; downhill shots generally receive a shorter adjusted distance.

Slope control and display behavior

The Tour Hybrid uses a dedicated Physical Slope-Switch to change between slope-assisted and non-slope operation.

With slope enabled, the rangefinder uses elevation information to provide an adjusted playing-distance estimate in addition to the direct laser measurement.

The listed display is LCD with illuminated JOLT ring + GPS. The dataset does not publish the exact slope icon or screen layout for this model, so the official manual should be used for the precise indicator.

Tournament use

The Tour Hybrid is listed as tournament legal when used with slope assistance switched off. Confirm the model is in its permitted non-slope configuration before competitive play.

Slope troubleshooting

Slope-adjusted distance is not appearing

Confirm slope is enabled using Physical Slope-Switch, then re-range a target with a clear elevation change.

Slope will not turn off

Return the Tour Hybrid to its non-slope setting using Physical Slope-Switch. Confirm the setting before competition.

Adjusted distance changes between readings

Re-acquire the same part of the target. A different aim point or measured angle can change the compensated result even when direct distance changes little.

Not sure which number is adjusted

The listed display is LCD with illuminated JOLT ring + GPS, but the exact slope screen layout is not published in the dataset. Use the model manual for the indicator/key.

Using slope correctly

Before competition, check the Physical Slope-Switch and confirm the Tour Hybrid is in its non-slope configuration.
During practice, compare direct distance and adjusted distance on obvious uphill and downhill targets so you learn how much the model changes the playing number.
Tournament use is shown here as Yes — non-slope mode. The competition’s Local Rules still take priority.
The model is listed as IPX6. Keep the slope/mode control area clean after wet-weather use so switches or buttons remain easy to operate.

Bushnell Tour Hybrid slope FAQ

Does the Bushnell Tour Hybrid have slope?

Yes. It is listed with Laser slope + GPS.

How is slope controlled on the Bushnell Tour Hybrid?

The published control is Physical Slope-Switch.

Is the Bushnell Tour Hybrid tournament legal?

The Tour Hybrid is listed as tournament legal when used with slope assistance switched off. Confirm the model is in its permitted non-slope configuration before competitive play.

What does slope do on the Bushnell Tour Hybrid?

It combines direct laser distance with elevation information to estimate an adjusted playing distance.

Why can adjusted distance differ from direct distance?

Direct distance is the line-of-sight measurement. The adjusted value estimates how the elevation change alters the effective playing distance.
