How slope works on this model

The SL3 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 SL3 combines laser and GPS and includes a dedicated tournament mode for competitive play.

Its slope guidance is integrated with the hybrid GPS/laser system rather than being a laser-only feature.

GPS Pin Assist can help filter unwanted objects behind the green; that target assistance is separate from slope adjustment.

Tournament use

The SL3 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

Tournament mode is on but GPS/slope features changed

That is expected: the SL3’s tournament configuration is designed to remove restricted assistance for competitive play.

Laser and course data seem different

The SL3 is a hybrid GPS/laser device, so confirm whether you are looking at a laser measurement, GPS course information or a slope-adjusted value.

Slope-adjusted distance is not appearing

Confirm slope is enabled using Tournament mode, then re-range a target with a clear elevation change.

Slope will not turn off

Return the SL3 to its non-slope setting using Tournament mode. Confirm the setting before competition.

Using slope correctly

Before competition, check the Tournament mode and confirm the SL3 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.

Is the Voice Caddie SL3 tournament legal?

The SL3 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 Voice Caddie SL3?

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.
