Garmin #1 for GPS watches

Golf is a numbers game - always will be. One of the most important numbers every golfer needs to know is the yardage to the pin - without it we're lost!
For years golfers have relied on yardage tips by bits of painted wood to indicate 100 or 150 meters or little numbers sporadically placed on sprinkler heads. This added a bit of mystery to the game, but that mystery is no longer now that GPS devices are becoming more and more popular on the fairways of the world.
GPS devices use a network of satellites around the planet to precisely tell you where you are and when this is paired with a mapped course will tell you within a meter how far you've got to drop one a few inches from the pin for a tap in birdie.
This is very clever technology, but with Garmin watches, GPS has never been easier to use. Simply walk up to the first tee, tap to start a round and the watch will locate the satellites and ask you to confirm the course you're standing on and that's it...away you go. It'll tell you distance to the front, middle and back of each green, you can go to green view mode and drag the virtual pin around the green if you see it's placed in a particular position and you can even measure a shot with the tap of a button (great fun if you cream a drive off the tee!)
The devices were seen as gimmicks when they first came on the scene, as many were (and still are) not very accurate. However Garmin is the world’s most respected GPS Company and once you've tried one of these things, you'll feel naked on the course without one.
