What 5x means on the course
The Tour V2 Slope’s 5x optics sit below the common 6x level, favoring a slightly calmer-looking view over maximum enlargement.
Its 367 ft-at-1,000-yd field of view sits near the middle of the published FOV values in this dataset.
Eye relief is a relatively generous 21 mm in this dataset, giving the eye more distance from the eyepiece while retaining the intended view.
The published flag-ranging figure is 325 yd, so the optical system is paired with flag acquisition intended for that distance range.
Published ranging accuracy is 1 yd where that figure is expressed numerically; this is separate from magnification.
How large does the target appear?
These are approximate angular-size comparisons to help visualize magnification. They are not laser-range or accuracy claims.
How its magnification compares
This comparison is only against the models in this rangefinder dataset; it is not an industry-wide ranking.
Lens, eye relief and display
The objective lens diameter is 24 mm. Objective size is one part of the optical design; coatings, transmission and ambient light also affect the view.
Exit pupil is published at 4.8 mm. This page uses the published/source value rather than calculating one from other specs.
Eye relief is 21 mm, which is relatively generous among the models here with published eye-relief data.
The Tour V2 Slope uses a LCD display. Display readability affects how quickly you can interpret the measurement, but it does not change target enlargement.
Field of view at golf distances
The published field of view is 367 ft at 1,000 yd, near the middle of the published values in this dataset. The same angular view spans approximately:
These widths are proportional conversions from the published field-of-view specification.
Steadiness, scan mode and target lock
At 5x, the view is less visually sensitive to hand movement than a 7x model, which can make scanning and initial flag acquisition easier.
Flag range is listed at 325 yd. That is a laser-acquisition limit/context figure, not an optical magnification figure.
Can you zoom the Tour V2 Slope?
No variable optical zoom range is listed. The Tour V2 Slope is a fixed 5x optic. Any eyepiece or diopter adjustment changes focus for your eye, not magnification.
Who is this optical setup best suited to?
Well suited to golfers who prefer an easier-to-steady view and do not need maximum target enlargement.
Its relatively generous eye relief may be useful for users who prefer a little more space behind the eyepiece.
Bushnell Tour V2 Slope magnification FAQ
What magnification is the Bushnell Tour V2 Slope?
The Bushnell Tour V2 Slope has 5x fixed magnification. A target appears about 5 times as large in angular size as it does to the unaided eye.
Can you zoom the Bushnell Tour V2 Slope?
No variable optical zoom range is listed. The Tour V2 Slope is a fixed 5x optic. Any eyepiece or diopter adjustment changes focus for your eye, not magnification.
Is 5x enough magnification for golf?
5x provides meaningful target enlargement. More magnification is not automatically better because it also makes normal hand movement more visible.
Does magnification change the Bushnell Tour V2 Slope’s laser accuracy?
No. Magnification changes how large the target looks through the optic. It can make aiming easier, but it does not itself change the laser’s published ranging accuracy.
What is the Bushnell Tour V2 Slope field of view?
The listed field of view is 367 ft at 1,000 yards, which corresponds to about 110 ft of scene width at 300 yards.
What is the Bushnell Tour V2 Slope eye relief?
Eye relief is listed at 21 mm. That is the approximate distance behind the eyepiece from which the intended field of view can be seen.
