This is a nice multifunction tool. It gives you front, back and center of the
green. It also allows you to dispel the myth that golf has no exercise. The pedometer feature allows you to see how
many times you waded into the rough.
Seriously it does measure your footsteps and lets you see how much
walking you actually did. It is sleek
and good looking. The down side is that
it is hard to read. The display is
bright enough to see in the sunlight and that is a very good feature as some of
the golf gps units are practically invisible in the bright sun. The down side is that the display is
coarse. I don't know the size limits on LEDs
but they are too big so there is a lot of space between the lights. That makes is somewhat difficult to read, not
impossible but not easy to read. The
brightness factor may balance off the difficulty reading, seeing it in the
bright sunlight even if you have trouble reading it is better than the
invisibility many of it's competitor have in similar conditions. At $205 at the time of review, I suspect that despite the good looks and brightness, it would be smart to price the Garmin golf gps as it is easier to read as long as you have some shade for your arm.
