Anyone who is an avid golfer knows that a golf GPS can save them strokes. However, it can be hard to determine which is the best rated golf GPS system on the market. In this article I will review 3 of the top selling GPS systems.
Callaway uPro GPS - This is one of the top selling GPS devices available and it comes with a full color touchscreen. It also has the amazing feature that gives you a fly over of the hole you are playing. This is great for getting an idea of what the hole looks like and how to play your shot. It also features the AnyPoint technology which allows you to get yardage to any point on the hole. This is great for calculating layups and also to know how far hazards are. The Callaway uPro costs around $400.
Garmin Approach G4 Golf GPS - This device also features a full color touchscreen and it is also waterproof. It comes preloaded with over 9,000 courses so there is no need to download courses individually or pay extra for them. One of the best features is that you can use the touchscreen to move the pin placement on the hole to get exact yardage to the pin based on the pin location. The Garmin Approach G4 costs around $500.
Skycaddie SG5 - This device has a color screen and is backed by Skycaddie's award winning GPS system. They offer over 23,000 courses but you will need to pay for them individually or with a membership. SkyCaddie calculates yardage measurements from the ground instead of satellite images so it provides more accurate yardage. It can also hold up to 40 targets on each hole so you can put in bunkers, water or even trees that are in play. The Skycaddie SG5 costs around $400.
Hopefully one of these three best rated golf GPS systems will be right for you and start helping you save strokes off your score. Having correct yardage will not only lower your score but it will also save you time on the course.
