Bushnell iON Elite GPS Golf Watch, Black
Bushnell iON Elite GPS Golf Watch - Black
The Bushnell iON Elite GPS Golf Watch is a purpose-built wearable designed for golfers who want to elevate their game and lower their scores. Featuring a new colour touchscreen display, built-in GPS with preloaded course data, and an array of intelligent golf-specific functions, the iON Elite delivers the accurate on-course distances you need to play with confidence. Lightweight, stylish, and water-resistant, it performs just as well off the course as it does on it.
The iON Elite comes preloaded with more than 38,000 courses from around the world, covers front, centre, and back distances to the green, and includes Auto Hole Advance so the watch seamlessly moves to the next hole the moment you finish the previous one — no manual tapping required. Whether you are tracking shot distances, viewing hole layouts, or planning your next approach, the Bushnell iON Elite puts all the information you need right on your wrist.
Interface language note: The Bushnell iON Elite GPS watch does not currently support Czech as an interface language. According to the official manual, the available interface languages are: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Swedish, Danish, Indonesian, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. If you prefer a broader language experience, the Bushnell Golf mobile app (available for Android and iOS) may offer additional language options — we recommend checking the app for the most up-to-date language support. Distance measurement can be set to metres, so all on-course distances — to the green, hazards, and doglegs — will be displayed in metres.

Technology in Detail
GPS with 38,000+ Preloaded Courses
The Bushnell iON Elite arrives ready to play straight out of the box, preloaded with over 38,000 courses from more than 30 countries. The GPS engine delivers precise front, centre, and back distances to the green, giving you an immediate and reliable read of each hole. Coverage extends to hazards, doglegs, and other key points of interest so you can plan every shot with full situational awareness. Course data updates are available through the Bushnell Golf app, keeping your library current for 2021 and newer GPS products.
Auto Hole Advance
Auto Hole Advance uses GPS positioning to detect when you have completed a hole and automatically transitions to the next one — no button presses, no interruptions to your rhythm. This intelligent feature means you stay focused on your game rather than managing your device. Whether you are playing a casual round or competing seriously, the seamless hole transitions keep the watch working as quietly and efficiently as a caddie in the background.
HoleView & Shot Planning
The HoleView screen gives you a graphical overview of the hole layout directly on your wrist, allowing you to assess the shape of the hole before you play. Activate Shot Planning to pinpoint accurate distances to any specific target or point on the hole — not just the green. This turns the iON Elite into a true strategic tool, enabling layup calculations and precise club selection decisions that can shave strokes off your score.
Green View with Moveable Pin Placement
Green View displays the shape and contour of the green on screen, and a moveable pin icon lets you adjust for the actual flag position on the day. This means the front, centre, and back distances dynamically reflect where the pin really is, rather than a fixed centre-point estimate. Greater pin accuracy translates directly into better club selection and more confident approach shots, especially on large or irregularly shaped greens.
Dynamic Green Mapping
Dynamic Green Mapping calculates and displays front and back distances relative to the golfer's actual play line rather than a generic straight-on projection. As you move around the course and your angle to the green changes, the distance readouts update to reflect your true approach angle. This is particularly valuable on holes with elevated greens or significant left-to-right angles, where a standard centre distance would otherwise mislead your club selection.
Bushnell Golf Mobile App & Slope Technology
The Bushnell Golf app (free for Android and iOS) pairs with the iON Elite via Bluetooth to deliver additional product benefits, enhanced statistics, and easy firmware updates. Notably, the iON Elite is the first Bushnell watch to support the brand's patented Slope technology through the app, calculating elevation-adjusted distances that tell you exactly how far to play the ball given the uphill or downhill gradient. The app also provides access to round tracking data and performance insights to help you identify areas for improvement.
