What’s New & Exciting on Bushnell Golf’s Phantom 3 GPS?
A lot was improved on the previous Phantom 2 GPS from Bushnell Golf. And this new version has these things in common with it:
- Front, Center, and Back Distances to the Green
- Up to 6 Hazards per Hole
- GreenView with Moveable Pin Placement
- Shot Distance Calculator
- Large, Easy-to-read Font
- 38,000+ Preloaded Courses
- Free Bushnell Golf Mobile App
- Battery Life: 14+ Hours
- Auto Hole Advance
And here’s what’s new and improved on the what might be the best golf handheld GPS of 2024:
- NEW patented slope-compensated distances!
- NEW touchscreen with Intuitive UI!
- NEW auto-prompt score entry!
- NEW round timer and odometer!
- Stronger BITE Magnetic Cart Mount!
First Impressions at the 2024 PGA Show
For only $149.00, this is going to be a popular golf GPS device on the course in the 2024 golf season — for loads of reasons in the way of features that are packed into this handheld that manages to be conveniently slim, and yet easy to read and powerfully useful!
Added Slope Distances
Never before featured on a Bushnell Golf GPS handheld, this is an amazing feature addition for only $150.00!
Like with the Bushnell iON Elite golf watch, while you’ll get your distance to the front, middle, and back, you’ll also make better club choices knowing the distance with the elevation factored into your yardage.
Phantom 3 Touchscreen
The addition of the larger screen and larger font on the Phantom 2 was fantastic. But a touchscreen with Intuitive UI (meaning easy to use!) is a game-changer!
Bushnell Phantom 3 Price (vs Phantom 2)
The previous Phantom 2 GPS is still $129.99 (while supplies last) on PlayBetter.
So, the good news is … the 2024 Bushnell Phantom 3 will only cost you $20 more at $149.00! (But not until late spring; we’re hearing May—hopefully in time for Father’s Day!).
One reason the Bushnell Golf is a golfer go-to brand is that they offer some of the best golf tech in the industry, trusted by the pros, with high-quality and (I’ll say it) sexy style, and they somehow manage to offer pricing for the average golfer! How we do love Bushnell Golf at PlayBetter!
