Compare Golf GPS Watches
The golf gps watch has taken a huge leap in popularity. Prior to 2012 the only model in this category was the
Garmin Approach S1. The growing sales of the S1 sent competitors to the drawing board. Models in this category are
currently available from Bushnell, Motorola, Golf Buddy, Expresso, as well as the next generation watch from
Garmin. Watches offer the golfer an ease of use that a handheld can't match. Just a glance at your wrist gives you
distance information quickly and easily. The advancement in technology has shrunk the gps capable watches to the
size of a normal sports watch. They can even be worn as everyday watches. Innovations include but are not limited
to touchscreens, voice spoken distances, and green view. These units come with all the courses available for that
particular brand. What you will be missing are hole layouts and anypoint technology. Let's take a closer look at
what's available and see if one is right for you.
