Things To Consider When Choosing A Golf GPS Unit

By Sadie R. Terry


What do you give a valued golfer friend for the holidays? If he is the type of person who has everything, then he will surely appreciate a golf GPS unit. It could be his constant companion whenever he plays golf. What are the things you should consider before you buy the gadget?

But before you even buy one, it would be important to consider the following features of a quality golf GPS unit.

Feature # 1 Waterproof and Durable - As golf is an external sport, being durable and waterproof will allow the unit to withstand weather changes plus the wear and tear of continued use.

The unit will be helping you measure individual shot distances. Aside from this, you will be informed if you are nearing water hazards. With this unit, you are assured of protection for your golf equipment.

Feature # 2 Good Screen Visibility - This is the most appreciated feature of a GPD unit, especially if it has a large screen. Images can easily be viewed. An anti-glare gadget is an add-on which makes the screen viewable even under the sun. You don't need to go under a shade just to view it.

Feature # 3 Good Satellite Reception - This comes in handy especially when playing golf in tree-lined fairways.

If the GPS can also keep the satellites locked in, it is very convenient to use. You can keep it in your pocket and still be able to get shot distances much quicker.

Feature # 4 - Car Charger for Rechargeable Battery - You may want to buy a car charger, too. This is the perfect partner for your GPS. In case you forget to recharge your unit at home, you can charge it in the car on your way to the greens.

Your golfer deserves the best GPS unit in the market. Before you purchase one, it would be best to go over the above features first.
