Satellite technology has revolutionised how we get from A to B, and nowadays you can take the sat nav onto the course thanks to nifty bits of kit like the Garmin Approach G6 Golf GPS, which we review here.
A few months back we reviewed the SkyCaddie SGX GPS rangefinder. Now, golfers who buy the new wireless SGXW golf GPS rangefinder from an authorised stockist before the end of April 2012 will get a free 'Birdie' Membership worth £29.95.
As a fully signed up gadget nut I have tried and purchased quite a few of the products on the market - and I love them all. The purists amongst you will throw your hands up in horror and claim the traditional ways are the best; using a course planner,150 yard markers, and personal judgement but I disagree; technology is here to stay so you may as well embrace it.
A rangefinder is completely competition-legal, and can put the finishing touches on your game by allowing you to plot your way around the course. We review the SkyCaddie SGX Golf GPS Rangefinder here.
