How slope works on this model
The A1-Slope uses Slope-adjusted distance.
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
Slope is controlled through Mode button, so check the active mode rather than looking only for a physical switch.
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. 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 A1-Slope 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 Mode button, then re-range a target with a clear elevation change.
Slope will not turn off
Return the A1-Slope to its non-slope setting using Mode button. 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, but the exact slope screen layout is not published in the dataset. Use the model manual for the indicator/key.

Bushnell A1-Slope slope FAQ
Does the Bushnell A1-Slope have slope?
Yes. It is listed with Slope-adjusted distance.
How is slope controlled on the Bushnell A1-Slope?
The published control is Mode button.
Is the Bushnell A1-Slope tournament legal?
The A1-Slope 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 A1-Slope?
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.
Competition and Local Rules take priority. Model revisions can also change controls or indicators. Confirm the exact non-slope configuration on the official Bushnell website or manual before competitive play. Visit Bushnell.
