The Benefits of a Golf GPS Shotsaver

If you play a lot of golf then you will certainly have seen the increase in use of Golf GPS units in recent times. If you don't have a GPS unit then you are probably wondering what are the advantages of buying one and what can it bring to your game? The simple fact is that if you are looking for consistency in your game then you should consider a Golf GPS.

One of the main challenges you come up against when playing golf is to have the ability to concentrate continuously for 4 hours plus whilst producing consistent shots with different clubs. Imagine that you were in a position where the only thing you had to worry about was your swing, this would make your overall golf game a lot more simpler. There is so much that goes through your mind that can affect your game, the mental aspect has just as much (probably more) effect as the physical aspects of your game.

A Golf GPS device can help your game as it is similar to having your own caddie with you on the course. You hear so many golfers talk about course knowledge being a great advantage when playing – well this is what a GPS unit can do for you.


Many of the GPS units out there can tell you not just the distance to the middle, front or back of the green but the distance to the varying hazards that can cause you problems whilst playing. You can even store how far you hit the ball with each club over a period of play taking away the guesswork. This instills great confidence in your golf swing and overall play allowing you to clear hazards or hit greens consistently. Many of the systems available can store over 5,000 course details on them making them ideal for the travelling golfer across the world. If you are a club golfer who only plays golf on your own course or a few locally then you can purchase less expensive golf GPS devices that maybe only store up to 10 course layouts. This can make the purchase more cost effective.

If you want to improve your golf game then a Golf GPS device is no becoming an essential part of your equipment to do this. Recent information has highlighted that a gps can take anywhere between 4 to 6 shots off your score! Don't forget the ability to be able to concentrate on your swing and hit the ball consistently which breeds confidence and in turn even more consistency.
