For another consecutive year, Bushnell Golf is definitively the preferred distance-measuring device on the PGA Tour. The Darrell Survey Company, the golf industry’s leading independent and impartial arbiter of equipment use, recently reported that 99.3 percent of the 2023 Players Championship field used a Bushnell laser rangefinder to obtain accurate yardages during competition.
In a survey of 144 players taken during the Players Championship, 143 of those players named Bushnell as their preferred distance-measuring device. Bushnell has claimed the top spot among PGA Tour players every year since measuring device usage recording began in 2006, and once again has been crowned the distance measuring device of choice for PGA Tour players participating in one of the most competitive events in golf.
At just under 350 yards on the scorecard, the 17th at TPC San Antonio is a short par 4 that can be set up – and played – many different ways. When the forward tee is utilized, players are incentivized to go for the green, with 68 percent of the field making that decision.
From the back tee, a layup to the correct area can be beneficial. When positioned 60 to 100 yards from the pin with the second shot, players make birdie more than 34 percent of the time.

This included the eventual match play champion who used VENTUS driver and wood shafts on his way to victory.
