How slope works on this model
The Tour V6 Shift 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.
Official model-specific slope controls
The dedicated Slope Switch enables or disables slope-compensated ranging.
The display can show line-of-sight distance, slope percent grade and a separate Play As distance when slope is enabled.
Visual JOLT is a separate target-confirmation feature and does not indicate whether slope itself is on.
Tournament use
The Tour V6 Shift 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
Play As distance is missing
Check the Slope Switch. Play As distance and slope percentage are Shift-model features that appear with slope-compensated ranging enabled.
Visual JOLT appears but no slope value
Visual JOLT confirms target acquisition. It is separate from the slope setting, so check the Slope Switch.
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 V6 Shift to its non-slope setting using Physical Slope-Switch. Confirm the setting before competition.

Bushnell Tour V6 Shift slope FAQ
Does the Bushnell Tour V6 Shift have slope?
Yes. It is listed with Slope-adjusted distance.
What does the Bushnell Tour V6 Shift display in slope mode?
It can show line-of-sight distance, slope percentage and a Play As compensated distance.
How is slope controlled on the Bushnell Tour V6 Shift?
The published control is Physical Slope-Switch.
Is the Bushnell Tour V6 Shift tournament legal?
The Tour V6 Shift 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 V6 Shift?
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.
