What Is Slope vs No-Slope And Tournament Legal?

Slope vs. No-Slope

However, the slope and non-slope issue probably remind you of the trigonometry class in high school. I am still scared of that teacher and do not want to recall it.
The accurate thing is you do not have to do during your tournaments. Most of the golf rangefinder do the calculation for you. Let us look at how they do it.The golf courses have both ditches and hills. They are made such a way to test your measurement skills while you hit.

The distance between the golf ball and the flag in a plane ground is the horizontal distance. But if the flag is on a hill or in a ditch, you have to consider that extra elevation or depression.

Rangefinders with slope compensation technologies measure this vertical elevation using the trigonometric equation and adjust the horizontal distance. Golfers call this adjusted distance as slope compensated distance or just “slope”.

If your rangefinder does not have this feature, I am afraid you have to recall your high school classes!Out of the ten golf rangefinder, five comes with slope adjusted measurement. They are Nikon Pro Stabilized, Bushnell PRO X2, Precision Pro NX7PRO, Leupold GX 5i3 , and TecTecTec VPro 500S. The rest has no slope adjustment technology. So they are tournament legal.

Tournament Legal

The term “tournament legal” means whether you can use your rangefinder in a golf tournament or not. According to the USGA rule 14-3, you cannot use any DMD distance measuring device.

The rule clearly says “during a stipulated round, the player shall not use any artificial device or unusual equipment”. The equipment may be for the purpose of gauging or measuring distance or conditions which might affect his play”.

You cannot use those devices for handicapping purpose. If your device measures anything except range, it's not allowed to use in any game. So how you are going to use the golf rangefinder you picked from our list? USGA amended rule 14.3 in 2006 and added a special note.

The committee can permit the use of DMD locally. However, this new law 13-3/0.5 prohibits the use of any DMD that can measure wind speed and slope. Moreover, you cannot use any rangefinder that recommends a club for a specific condition.

So you have to turn off the Slope Adjusted distance mode in your rangefinder to make it tournament legal. Most of the high-end golf rangefinder has an indicator. It ensures that the match officials can check your device from the distance.

Some device comes with the different colored faceplate (TecTecTec VPro 500s) for slope mode. Other devices (Nikon Coolshot Stabilized) have LED to indicate slope mode.

Things You Should Consider Before Buying A Rangefinder

Range

For the golf and hunting enthusiasts, high-quality rangefinders are extremely important. Nowadays many new features are seen in the different companies’ rangefinders. People use these rangefinders even in the racing to get the distance of the moving cars. Some are way more expensive, and some are within the nominal range price. If you are looking for range detector also use this rangefinder golf and hunting. then check out the list and the necessary description below:

The range is an important factor for choosing a rangefinder. Your choice will depend on the size of the course you play. You need a long rangefinder when you are playing in a big course.

Most of the updated rangefinder models have a range higher than 1000 yards. However, basic rangefinders come with around 540 yard range.

So you need to choose your range based on your preferences. But keep in mind that higher range sometime affects the accuracy.

Accuracy

We all want a pinpoint accuracy. But range may compromise the accuracy. Most of the rangefinder will give ±0.5-yard accuracy within 450-yard.This accuracy will decrease with distance. After 1000 yard the accuracy falls within ±0.5-yard. So the accuracy will change with range.If you prefer to have a more accurate shot, you may have to compromise with range.

Target Locking Mechanisms

A target locking mechanism provides extra confidence. Some golf rangefinder has a burst of pulses when you lock on a target.

Some other models will give vibration to confirm a target lock. So you have to choose between these responses.

You can get the burst of pulses if you are confident about your steady grip. Otherwise, a single vibration is great for you.

Image Stabilization

This is the latest feature of the second-generation rangefinder. This technique helps you to aim precisely when your hand may move a little bit.

This stabilization makes sure the focusing laser does not move from the target at any time. Most of the new rangefinder have this feature.

GPS vs. No-GPS

Some of the hybrid rangefinders come with GPS. The GPS gives you a complete 2D picture of the entire course. These GPS has built-in data of minimum 31000 golf courses.

The GPS enabled rangefinder will add an extra dimension in your shot and club selections. Moreover, you will have an idea about the different features of the golf course.

If you want to have this extra advantage, you can get a hybrid rangefinder. However, professional golfers sometimes want to engage their skill. So they do not prefer this feature.

Make sure you know whether your tournament allows the hybrid device or not.

Customer Service

I know some of you have to bend your eyebrow on this. But as a high precision electronic device, high-quality customer service is required for a rangefinder.

You need dedicated helpline for any issue. Moreover, the warranty duration is also very important. The longer warranty period will provide peace of mind.

You may have a money back guarantee and trade-in facilities. Those are extra benefits from the manufacturer.

Slope Adjusted Distance

Up and down hills may affect your shot in the course. You will need to adjust those up and downhill while measuring. You will need a slope adjustment feature in your rangefinder to compensate those. Most of the updated rangefinder models have this feature. They are mostly known as slope feature.But some golf tournament will not allow it in the game. If you use it, you may have to keep it noticeable. Before buying a rangefinder this will be the most important decision to make.

Price

A feature-packed rangefinder will be pricey. But it will come with some excellent features that will ensure perfect green. An expensive rangefinder may be a burden for a beginner, But A pro golfer will always prefer to have one in his gold bag.

Price may vary among the models of same product series. If you know what features you really want, the price difference should not be a big issue.

  1. Good review
    I got the Nikon Coolshot 80 VR, which I love. Stabilized, waterproof, and a lot better looking than these models. No slope function though.

  2. Your content was much more informative than others. Golf Rangefinder is meant to be held up to one eye only that determines how far is your target to shoot, whether it is a flagstick, a tree, a bunker face, or whatever. It helps golfer’s eyepiece to measure the distance. It’s good to see someone put forth recommendations on this. It helped me a lot to know more about the difference between different Golf Rangefinder & to choose the right one. As you point out, there are plenty of Golf Rangefinder of different qualities & prices. Great selection! Thanks for putting top-notch content in the article. I would like to be here again to find another masterpiece article.
