How slope works on this model
The aimLITE S 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 aimLITE S has an external Slope Switch.
It includes Slope Mode for adjusted distance and a Tour Mode intended for tournament-compliant use.
Flag Lock vibration confirms target acquisition separately from slope status.
Tournament use
The aimLITE S is listed as tournament legal in Tour Mode. Tour Mode is the configuration to use when slope assistance is prohibited.
Slope troubleshooting
Slope-adjusted distance is not appearing
Confirm slope is enabled using External slope switch, then re-range a target with a clear elevation change.
Slope will not turn off
Return the aimLITE S to its non-slope setting using External 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, but the exact slope screen layout is not published in the dataset. Use the model manual for the indicator/key.

Is the GOLFBUDDY aimLITE S tournament legal?
The aimLITE S is listed as tournament legal in Tour Mode. Tour Mode is the configuration to use when slope assistance is prohibited.
What does slope do on the GOLFBUDDY aimLITE S?
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 GOLFBUDDY website or manual before competitive play. Visit GOLFBUDDY.
