Costumer Testimonials

This Garmin could not be much easier to use.

Switch it on when you arrive at the golf club (it takes much less than a minute to get satellites),

it prompts you with the course name (your club may possibly have multiple courses),

click select on the course,

walk onto the tee (front or back 9 does not matter it figures it out),

off you go,

while standing at my ball, a fast glance at my wrist assists my shot/club choice (its as painless as checking the time)

In contrast to my shotsaver, I can read it devoid of glasses.

as you walk from a green to the subsequent tee it switches automatically to the suitable hole.

Unlike my shotsaver, I don't have to explicitly 'finish hole' and confirm the subsequent hole.

I can forget about it for a handful of holes and not have get out my glasses and 'finish' numerous holes to get to where I am.

Its strictly 'distance to green (front, middle, back)' nothing about bunkers and other hazards.

Really correct, to the yard. I currently trust it additional than my course's 150yd and 100yd markers.

It measures about dog legs (not as the crow, and occasionally the ball, flies).

Oh, you do have to 'end round' as you finish your round, or the battery will discharge too swiftly (I didn't try leaving it on).

'Measure shot' worked as expected. 'Odometer' worked fine too.

Extremely recommended.

Getting recently bought the Garmin GPS Watch for my father, I decided to roadtest it for myself.

Its really comfy on the wrist, you only press a button twice and you are up and operating. As soon as to choose course

and one particular time to begin, its as simple as that. I did let my father use it as soon as and he was delighted with it , on the other hand, I took it back and enjoy it. Beware of purchasing this as a gift for an individual ! You could not want to part with it like me !

Its also a particularly good watch.
