GolfSpy Barbajo 9,285 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 (6) TESTERS WANTED!!! SkyCaddie LINX GT GPS Watch/Shot Tracking System Way back in 1968, Smuckers had the bright idea of combining peanut butter and jelly in one jar. Whether the inventor of the idea was too busy to open up two jars or simply hated the idea of using two knives is unknown, but the two-in-one combo idea was a hit and Goober is still on the shelves nearly a half-century later. A GPS watch/shot tracking system is another one of those two-in-one combo ideas that looks appealing on the surface. There are plenty of shot tracking products out there (Arccos, Game Golf, Shot Scope) and more GPS watches than we can name. But putting both together? SkyCaddie thinks they have it figured out. Testers Wanted: SkyCaddie's new LINX GT can work as a stand alone GPS watch, can be synched to your Smartphone for an HD overview of the entire hole and, with the addition of SmartTags, automatic shot tracking with full round statistics. Does the LINX GT sound like a shot tracking/GPS game changer? Is it golf's version of PB & J in one jar? We need 6 avid golfers to help us find out. How To Apply: As you know, we take our product testing very seriously here at MyGolfSpy. We're looking for 6 of you to test and review (and keep) the new SkyCaddie LINX GT. If you'd like to be a tester, please read and follow these instructions carefully: First, if you haven't already, you MUST register for the MyGolfSpy Community Forum (click here to register) In THIS thread, please tell us the following: Your first name, home state/province Your current handicap Have you used a GPS watch?
