Bushnell just dropped its latest gadget for golfers who like their rounds loud — the Wingman HD, a next-gen Bluetooth golf speaker with GPS smarts, a bright color touchscreen, and enough bass to make your cart vibrate.

The $199.99 device builds on the success of Bushnell’s earlier Wingman View, upgrading the monochrome display to a vivid 3.5-inch color screen that now shows front, center, and back distances — as well as hazards — on virtually any course in the world.

It’s equal parts entertainment system and caddie. The Wingman HD automatically identifies the course you’re playing via GPS, giving you on-screen and audible distances, while the Bushnell Golf App adds flyovers, scoring, and extra analytics.

You can use it to track your shots, log stats, and even get a quick look at the next hole’s layout — all while streaming your favorite playlist.

More Than a Speaker

What makes this unit stand out is its hybrid personality: half rangefinder, half party starter. The semi-cylindrical design houses a pair of 15-watt drivers and passive radiators for full-range 360° sound, and it’s smart enough to adapt. Its Dynamic Audio Adjustment feature automatically raises or lowers volume as you drive — so the soundtrack stays consistent even when you’re cruising down the cart path.

It’s also rugged and ready for real-world conditions: the Wingman HD is rated IPX67 waterproof and dustproof, meaning rain showers or bunker blasts won’t kill the vibe. And of course, it includes Bushnell’s signature BITE magnetic mount, letting you slap it right onto the cart frame so it’s always in reach.

A Growing Category on the Course

The golf-speaker market has exploded in the past few years, with companies like Blue Tees, RAD Golf, and Precision Pro introducing their own “music-meets-metrics” devices. What used to be a novelty is quickly becoming an expected accessory — much like rangefinders were a decade ago.

Bushnell’s Wingman series practically kicked off the trend in 2020, and it has dominated ever since. The combination of entertainment and functionality resonated with the modern golfer: someone who tracks stats on their phone, plays Spotify between holes, and treats a Saturday foursome as equal parts competition and social event.

Now, with this HD version, Bushnell is doubling down on that lifestyle approach — positioning the Wingman HD as both a tech upgrade and a centerpiece for the increasingly music-driven golf experience. Think of it less as a speaker and more as the on-course DJ, coach, and hype man rolled into one.

Extra Features and Little Touches

Bushnell hasn’t skimped on the details. The Wingman HD offers indoor and outdoor EQ modes, making it just as useful for range sessions or backyard BBQs as it is for 18 holes. You can also add a personal twist — recording custom audio soundbites like “nice drive” or triggering a “crowd cheer” when your buddy sticks one close. And for bigger groups, the “Concert Links” mode lets you sync up to 100 Wingman HD speakers together, turning your next scramble into a full-blown tailgate.

Pair it with the Bushnell app, and you get digital scorekeeping, hole maps, and shot-distance calculation — essentially folding several golf gadgets into one sleek package.

The Bigger Picture: Golf’s Tech-Infused Future

The Wingman HD launch is part of a broader trend transforming how people experience golf. Tech isn’t just for the swing nerds anymore — it’s for everyone. Smart rangefinders, GPS watches, launch monitors, and portable simulators have made data accessible to weekend players. Add the social layer — music, content sharing, and mobile apps — and golf has become more interactive and connected than ever.

Speakers like the Wingman HD are a natural evolution of that shift. They make golf less rigid, more fun, and more social — perfectly aligned with the sport’s younger, lifestyle-driven audience. Bushnell just happens to be leading the charge with one of the best-looking and most versatile options out there.
