Once in this mode, press the POWER button to turn the unit on. Next, align the aiming circle onto the object (i.e. deer) that you want distance to. Next, press and hold the POWER button and move the laser slowly over the deer until crosshairs surround the BullsEye indicator. If the laser beam recognized more than one object (i.e. deer and background trees), distance of the closer object (i.e. deer) will be displayed and crosshairs will surround the BullsEye indicator informing the user that distance to the closer object is being displayed in the LCD (Figure 1). There may be times when only the laser beam only sees one object in its path. In this case, the distance will be displayed, but because more than one object was not acquired, crosshairs will not surround the BullsEye indicator.

TIP: While pressing the POWER button, you can move the device slowly from object to object and intentionally force the laser to hit multiple objects to ensure that you are only displaying the closest of the objects recognized by the laser.

Brush™ (LCD Indicator - ) This advanced mode allows objects such as brush and tree branches to be ignored so that distance only to background objects are displayed. When more than one object has been acquired, distance of the further object will be displayed and a circle will surround the Brush™ indicator informing the user that distance of the farthest object is being displayed in the LCD.

Once in this mode, press the POWER button to turn the unit on. Next, align the aiming circle onto the object that you want distance to. Next, press and hold the POWER button and move the laser slowly over the object until a circle surrounds the Brush indicator. If the laser beam recognized more than one object (i.e. close-up tree branch and a deer in the background), distance of the further object (i.e. deer) will be displayed and a circle will surround the brush indicator informing the user that distance to the farther object is being displayed in the LCD (Figure 2). There may be times when only the laser beam only sees one object in its path. In this case, the distance will be displayed, but because more than one object was not acquired, the circle will not surround the Brush indicator.

1000 specifications

The Bushnell 1000 is a powerful laser rangefinder designed for outdoor enthusiasts, hunters, and sports enthusiasts. Renowned for its accuracy and durability, it excels in providing precise distances over long ranges. The device boasts a maximum range of up to 1000 yards, making it ideal for both short-range and long-distance applications.

One of the standout features of the Bushnell 1000 is its Advanced Digital Optical System (ADOS). This technology enhances the clarity and brightness of the viewed image, allowing users to see targets clearly, even in low-light conditions. Coupled with multi-coated optics, ADOS ensures minimal light loss and improved light transmission, providing a bright and clear view of distant objects.

The rangefinder also incorporates Bushnell's famous PinSeeker technology. This feature helps users easily identify and lock onto flagsticks or other targets, ensuring accurate readings even in cluttered environments. When enabled, PinSeeker can ignore background targets, allowing hunters and golfers alike to achieve the precise measurement they need without distractions.

Another significant selling point is the built-in scan mode. This function allows users to continuously measure distances while moving, providing real-time data as users pan across a landscape. This is particularly beneficial in dynamic environments where the target may shift or move unexpectedly.

In terms of design, the Bushnell 1000 is lightweight and ergonomic, making it easy to carry during long outings. It also features a rugged, waterproof construction that is essential for outdoor use, ensuring reliability in various weather conditions. Its compact size and streamline design make it a convenient tool to fit in any gear bag.
