What customers say about "Key Specs"
Bushnell Neo ION
  • Recognizes my home course quickly. Yardage to front/middle/back are accurate versus my son's Bushnell laser.
  • This gives you perfect yardage from everywhere. I wish it kept score but definitely worth giving that up for such an easy, intuitive device.
  • If you are looking for more than just distance to front, center and back of the green it does have distances to hazzaeds and layups
  • The yardages seem to be dead on. I compared it to other lasers and a golf cart gps.
  • I know it's accurate because when I first started using it I would stand on the yard markers to check the yardage.
Bushnell NEO XS Golf GPS Rangefinder Watch
  • I have always trusted the yardage and it stays true.
  • Very accurate, compared to my buddys laser it is spot on. Shows distance to hazard, shot measure, adjusts to next hole automatically
  • In over 50 courses, including country clubs, this watch gives yardage to bunkers, end of fairway; front, middle and back of the greens.
  • I wear it everyday, not just for golf. Odometer works well also.
  • Had this watch about two years. Works great, accurate within 5 yards, easy to use.

What customers say about "Features"
Bushnell Neo ION
  • Battery is excellent got over 3 eighteen hole rounds and still had battery left
  • The battery lasts much longer before a charge is needed. I recommend this .
  • I only use the watch for golf but I like the level of water resistance.
  • So far so good; the battery seems stronger than the Neo, I got close to 15/20 hours of use before it blanked out
  • Once you pick the course you don't need to hit another button. Good if your not good with tech.
Bushnell NEO XS Golf GPS Rangefinder Watch
  • Find it far more convenient to have the information on my wrist than to peer at device mounted on trolley handle.
  • Battery life is longer than I expected I manage to play 2 rounds before a recharge.
  • Overall verypleased with it,easy to operate and provides me with the information i need.
  • My husband picked it and loves it. It has more than he bargained for. He likes that it also counts his steps.
  • I used mine for over a year and was happy with it. At the end of the warranty period, the unit would no longer charge and went completely dead.
  • Started fogging up about three months ago, then it would start freezing and now it's dead.
