Caddyroom Take

The GX-5c is Leupold's top golf rangefinder, and its 1,600-yard max range is the widest here by a clear margin. The DNA engine reports to the nearest 0.1 yard, tighter than the 1-yard rounding of most rivals. True Golf Range factors slope, altitude, and temperature, and Club Selector adds a club recommendation, both disabled for tournament play. At 7.8 ounces and fully waterproof the build holds up, and the optics carry Leupold's hunting pedigree. The case design is less refined than Bushnell's flagships, and Prism Lock gives an audible cue on courses with prism-equipped flags.
