Do golf GPS watches work on every course?

Yes. Golf GPS watches work using satellite technology to identify your location on the golf course and calculate yardages based on your location. They also use this information to offer you details on hazards, distances to the green and the pin, etc.All you need to do is select the course you’re playing on and the watch will use your location to provide the details you need as you make your way around each hole.

How accurate are golf GPS watches?

Golf GPS watches have improved their accuracy as technology has progressed. Once upon a time, they’d be able to offer accurate readings within approximately five metres. Today, some golf GPS watches can achieve accurate readings by as close as one or two yards.

Do golf GPS watches have built-in courses?

Yes, some golf GPS watches come preloaded with thousands of golf courses from around the world, packed with all the data you need to have a great game. If you can’t find your course, most watches allow you to download additional courses and information.

What’s the difference between a golf GPS watch and a golf rangefinder?

A golf GPS watch is a device worn by golfers on their wrists, containing various pieces of data related to the course and holes they’re playing. Golf rangefinders tend to focus on calculating distances on the golf course and distance-related statistics. Traditional golf rangefinders look similar to binoculars and offer a much-improved view of the golf course when players need a hand.

Looking for a golf watch?

Golf watches offer everything you need to know about your game.

From giving accurate distances to the green (including distance to the front, middle and back in some cases), where the closest hazards are, to your swing speed, shot tracking and more, a golf GPS watch gives you the finer details you need to choose the right club, hit the right shot, and get your score down.

Far more than "just a golf watch", golf watches are like having a virtual caddie or digital scorecard on your wrist, giving you critical information and insights into the course so you can make better decisions in your golf game and hit better shots.

No more landing short of the green, sailing past it, or landing in some unexpected sand or water.

With a golf smart watch, you’ll have a complete picture of the hole before swinging.

Whether you want better information about your game so you can improve your score or you want to stop getting the round in after losing another Sunday morning game, a golf GPS watch gives you the edge.
