Mfrye Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Michael - San Diego,ca i have previously Used I-phone based application such as golflogix and Golfnow as well as the voice caddie for a round or two. my current method of determining yardage is the TecTecTec Vpro500 range finder. I find the solution of pulling out it out for every shot tedious and would love to explore and deduce the body mounted gps that provides target ranges and compare it viability vs laser range finders.

SoCal_Dude Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) BG Matyas Carlsbad, CA 92011 Using Arccos Caddie + Garmin Vivoactive 3 with golf + Leupold Laser Gx4i2 Like the Arccos graphics, hate the quick battery drain/hassle with phone and impossible to use for scoring. Garmin is good for quick distances and scoring, but weak on graphics/course info. Laser is great on distance, but trouble locking on most of time. Have them all in the bag, use Garmin for scoring and quick distance, Arccos till battery dies (10-13 holes), laser typically from 100 yd in and dbl checking distance against the Garmin or golf cart GPS (when available). Playing partners think I'm nuts dealing with all the technology...but then again, they are always asking for distances. lol Edited July 10, 2020 by SoCal_Dude Epic Max driver & 3 wood Sim 3 & 4 Hybrid Razr 5 hybrid P790 irons 56 & 60 wedges "as seen on TV" 64* wedge Spyder X putter & 3 other putters Fan of Skytrak & Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pgr Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 I am on my third GPS watch and have some very strong opinions on what separates a good watch (Garmin) from a crap one (Golf Buddy). Here are some things I would test: Accuracy to front middle back vs. laser range finder (just bough Precision pro from your recommendation!) Ease of use in starting, loading coarse and wear during play. ease of movement from hole to hole. Noticed this when using above mentioned WTX watch. Pull up cart next to tee going back (maybe 2 or 3 holes ahead) watch moves to that hole but then when you walk over to your 30 yd pitch shot refuses to move back to your hole. How well it interfaces with phone app for keeping score and stats (putts, penalties etc.) How easy it is to change settings Battery life. In short - I know a crap watch from a good watch.
