I predict two years from now, this is the new rangefinder technology.For the past several years, I have been a big proponent of the laser rangefinder, arguing with my gps rangefinder friends that the laser is more accurate to the pin. After my round today, I am not sure I will ever pull my laser out again. The convenience is unbelievable. I just look down at my wrist, and I have my distance to the front middle and back. I look in the cart at the pin sheet, and subtract or add for a perfect distance. No reaching in the glove box of the cart or fumbling around for a device. Even cooler, and more used than I anticipated, is the function that lets me measure the distance of my shot. You just hold a button and select "measure my shot" then drive or walk to the ball, and it gives the distance. I started doing it with all...

I love it!, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Garmin Approach S1 Waterproof Golf GPS Watch (Electronics) I love this product. I've had the Skycaddie and the Garmin larger units andI didn't realize how much of a pleasure it would be not to have to go around to the side of the cart to look at the yardage. Also, the readout on the watch is a lot easier to see than the screens of the larger units. The guy complaining about the differences in yardage must be a very accurate golfer. For me, a few yards difference is not going to matter. Although I question whether sprinkler heads are that accurate. I have checked the SR watch against the hand held and usually they are the same or within a yard or two. The downside is you don't get the detail eg, distances to hazards or specific spots on the course that you can get with the handheld Garmin. Another negative is that the other guys in my foursome are always criticizing me for checking my watch for the time. 74 of 81 people found the following review helpful:  Poor Battery Life, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Garmin Approach S1 Waterproof Golf GPS Watch (Electronics) I love the watch and find it works wonderfully. The interface is poor - too much button pushing - but it works and there are few reasons to push any buttons on the course. You can measure your drive or move from the hazard backward to your ball - that takes button pushing.It finds all the golf courses without all that computer loading. The major defect and it's major is that the batteries won't last for 36 holes. It's a one round device and you better remember to recharge it or you won't have a device for the next round. |
