The L5 has an 'M' button on the top of the device to change between 4 modes: slope mode general, slope mode pin, no slope general, no slope pin. The display is better than most and the small bullseye crosshair is what makes it so easy to hit the top of the flag. I tested the L5 against every rangefinder I use regularly (Inesis Tour 900, Bushnell V5, Coolshot, Precision Pro) and the distances were consistently on target and as quick or quicker than every other model. The rangefinder tells us that the pin is +12 yards or -3 yards above or below us. It's a personal preference to have whole numbers but when I switch it over to Tournament mode without the slope featrure, it does go to whole numbers without a decimal point.Ī big difference in the viewfinder that I found is that the slope calculation is not in degrees but in yards so you can see the true elevation. My main gripe comes when there is a decimal point on slope mode. I just press the M button and it toggles on and off.

I prefer the way you can switch slope feature on and off with the L5. The engineering team at Voice Caddie have gone through iteration after iteration to improve the precision of the distance finding. What sets it apart from every other rangefinder on the list is the V-algorithm to calculate the distance on slope readings. There are many reasons I like this rangefinder but as always, the number one reason is it reads distances FAST. I've got a lot of rangefinders in my cupboard at home and give them away or lend them to pros when they need one. The Voice Caddie L5 rangefinder is my rangefinder of choice and it is the best golf rangefinder for the money hands down.
