Convenience and function
BC by the bay from Seabrook, TX | 12/8/2011 11:33 PM
I just got this GPS two weeks ago and have used it twice. Really easy to charge, set up and use. No courses to download, no memberships to buy, no hassle whatsoever. You walk onto the course wearing a watch and push one button twice and voilà , you are now wearing a GPS! It gives you front, center and back accurately and you will never leave this in the cart like other units since it is strapped to your wrist. I really don't know what else you would want.
A must have!

The internet is full of great reviews on this product, so no need to say anything else except, 5 stars!
I bought the white version online, and was a bit worried about it looking feminine. It is actually an off-white and looks great . . . so dont let that worry you.
Works like it should
Nick K from Columbus, OH | 7/22/2011 2:36 PM
Big reason why I bought this was because almost all the reviews I read were 5 stars. This device works just as promised. Incredibly simple to use and, for the most part, it does it all automatically. The features are limited, but it does all I ask it to do.
As far as the accuracy. It's possible it's going to be off by 1-2 yards, but unless you know PRECISELY where the pin is (which you're not going to know), 1-2 yards will NEVER make a real difference, even to the lowest of handicappers.
Best Golf Accessory I Own!
waterford5301 from Pittsburgh, PA | 6/28/2011 10:00 AM
I have been using it now for over 4 months and I have used it in several states (even on some not so popular golf courses) and the watch never fails. It is so simple to use. I also use the Odometer setting to see how far I walk each morning and I love the measure shot button. Battery is adequate. Recharging is simple and fast. There are small contacts on the bottom of the watch and the charger clamps over the contact.
There are no services fees, courses to download, ect. A MUST HAVE!
Everything I Expected in a GPS Watch
Kirk from Houston, TX | 4/9/2011 6:43 AM
Indeed, it is everything that I expected. The features are basic but very functional and easy to use. Its appearance is EXCELLENT (matte black / modern looking). My handicap is 15, but my first round with it, I shot a 78. Second round, 91; maybe its me. Only notice a 3-5 yard difference at times from the golf cart GPS. Would buy again.
