Golf GPS Review and Comparison

This site constantly reviews and compares golf GPS and laser rangefinders.  We do not carry every golf GPS or laser rangefinder on the market.  We must pick and choose which manufacturers we want and then we try to get those products.

BUSHNELL

We carry Bushnell laser rangefinders, because you cannot find a better laser rangefinder anywhere.  Also Bushnell has choices from affordable to somewhat expensive.  We carry Bushnell golf GPS, because of price point and the Bushnell name.  When it comes to Bushnell golf GPS we believe that the Bushnell Neo golf GPS is the best choice in the Bushnell line.  Neo was developed by iGolf and is time tested.  The Bushnell Neo GPS is priced low, yet has an easy to view read-out and allows you to measure your drives and manually plot your courses.  We think those are strong features and that is why we recommend this particular unit.  As far as laser rangefinders go, we really like the Bushnell V2 with slope.  The V2 is priced lower than the Bushnell 1600 and is smaller.  Of course the Bushnell Pinseeker 1600 Slope Edition is the ultimate with the highest magnification and we like this above any laser rangefinder if you have a little more to spend.

SAVANT ONPAR GOLF GPS

The OnPar golf GPS is new to the market, but is by far the slickest golf GPS on the market.  The touch-screen technology is perfected in this large screen unit and it is really easy to use.  We are offering a $50 bounty for OnPar reviews, so this makes the OnPar golf GPS the most affordable of the high end units.  The weakness of this unit is also the allure, it is new and therefore many courses are yet to be charted.  However if your course is not charted, Savant will chart it within 30 days of your request.  Obviously this disadvantage recedes as the weeks go by.  We like this unit so much we had to lobby Savant to become a retailer for them.  As is typical of a new/innovative golf GPS unit, manufacturing lags distribution; manufacturers do not need new retail outlets.  Anchor Goods was very fortunate to become one of the few.

SONOCADDIE

Sonocaddie is an excellent golf GPS.  All Sonocaddie models are superior golf GPS units.  Our recommendations are the Sonocaddie V100 and the Sonocaddie Auto Play Golf GPS.  The V100 GPS is very nicely loaded for a low cost golf GPS.  The V100 also has a very affordable course download plan.  And before I go on to the Auto Play, just one mention of the Sonocaddie XV2; the XV2 is also nicely loaded and it offers free course downloads.  Our Sonocaddie favorite though is the Sonocaddie Auto Play.  The Auto play golf GPS comes fully loaded with all of Sonocaddie’s 18,000+ golf courses.  This golf GPS is full color, with tons of features and will hold up to 30,000 golf courses.  In our opinion this is the unit for the guy who just wants to play golf; open the box and turn it on; really, really nice!
