It appears that the Bushnell Tour V2 is the same thing as the Bushnell Scout 1000. We golfers are just paying more because it's assumed we have more money than hunters. If the two products are the same, I'm thinking of buying a Camo Bushnell Scout 1000 for $200.
My first rangefinder was a hunting model. Like you say, it was cheaper than the golf version.
The only differences are the colour schemes and "pinseeker" is called something else.
I believe it's called "Bambi Killer" mode. ;)Quote:

ARC is basically the same as the Slope feature. They sell some with ARC and some dont have it. And yes, they are illegal.Quote:
