  • Our take on the Bushnell iON Elite Golf GPS Watch

    The Bushnell iON Elite is a golf-only GPS watch with a 1.28-inch color touchscreen and a 35.5mm plastic case on a 22mm rubber band. It gives front, center and back green distances plus hazard layups, and it stores up to 10 rounds offline so you can play without a phone. It is lighter and simpler than rangefinders and full smartwatches, and it skips step counting and phone notifications. Reviewers like the quick distances and comfortable fit; some find the touchscreen fussy in bright sun or with a glove on.

    What reviewers say

    Owners describe the iON Elite as a simple, reliable distance watch that is quick to read and comfortable for a full round. Praise centers on the green and hazard numbers and the offline round storage. Criticism focuses on the touchscreen in sunlight and gloves and on the limited smartwatch features.

    Questions and answers

    Does the iON Elite need a phone on the course?
    No. It stores up to 10 rounds offline, so you can get distances without carrying a phone. Bluetooth is used to sync round data to the Bushnell app afterward.
    Is it a full smartwatch?
    No. It is a golf GPS watch only. It does not count steps, track heart rate or show phone notifications.
    Can I wear it in the rain?
    Yes. It is rated IP67, so rain and sweat are fine. Do not swim or shower with it.
    How does it compare with a rangefinder?
    It gives front, center and back green distances and hazard layups instantly, without aiming. A rangefinder gives a precise pin number but takes more time and a steady hand.
    What is in the box?
    The watch, a magnetic 4-pin USB charging cable and documentation. A screen protector is not included but the screen accepts one.
    Does it work for any golf course?
    It uses preloaded course maps and GPS, so it works on mapped courses without a phone signal. Check the Bushnell app for your course before you play.
    Where is the Bushnell iON Elite Golf GPS Watch cheapest?
    At Best Buy, for $219.99, as of our latest check.
    Where can I buy the Bushnell iON Elite Golf GPS Watch?
