posted in Golf GPS Units, Golf Gadgets, Product Reviews |Final Score 4.5/5
A surprisingly great golf GPS. I didn’t think it would hold a candle to the gamrin unit, but by comparison, this is a good GPS unit for hitting the golf course.
It works great, but unforunately you have to buy the courses you upload to the unit. They give you five free courses when you first buy it (which is a lot of courses when you think about it {unless youre a golf nut [as I am]}) The GPS can store up to 30 courses and you download em from your PC. This is more than enough course capacity for this handy golf gadget. You can navigate custom waypoints and set them ass you require to set waypoints. You can set the location of bunkers (sand traps), water hazards, OB, bridges, trees, layups with nice little icons that are pleasant to look at.
You can track and store your shots to reviewlater. Which is pretty cool for improving your golf game. Speaking of improving your golf game, this handheld GPS DOES JUST THAT. I have found that I played at least 10% better when using this device (other golf GPS’s can compare, especially the ones by garmin {Check out our Garmin Golf GPS review elsewhere on this site}.
