Product reviewed
Bushnell Hybrid 25 Rangefinder
Specification-based assessment. Researched from the manufacturer's and retailer's published specifications, plus independent research into junior golf fit and use. See our review methodology for how ratings are calculated.
A combined laser and GPS rangefinder with slope compensation, sharable across the whole family.
Who it suits
Families wanting one rangefinder the whole household - including a competitive junior - can use, rather than a device marketed specifically at kids (no junior-specific rangefinder market currently exists).
Specifications
Strengths
Combining laser accuracy with GPS slope-compensated distances in one unit avoids needing two separate devices, and the slope-off switch means it stays legal to carry in sanctioned competition.
Limitations
It's a genuine premium purchase to justify for a junior alone, and it isn't sized, styled or marketed as a kids' product - it's a shared adult unit the whole family uses.
Value for money
At $765, this only makes sense once a junior is playing competitive, full-length rounds where precise yardages matter - not for a beginner still learning the game.
Australian availability
In stock through GolfBox at time of writing.
Final verdict
A premium, shared family purchase rather than a junior-specific product - justified once a junior is playing full, competitive rounds.
