I really like the form factor of this GPS watch and an LED screen on a watch is always cool. Easy.ĭuring the round I was able to check shot distances and even how many steps I’d taken using the inbuilt pedometer.
The figures were accurate and although at first I didn’t know how to change measurements to the centre of the green, a few presses of the ˜OK’ button again and I’ve got my measurements. I liked this addition as it felt like it was constantly working. Whilst walking (read finding) to my ball between shots, a small green light flashed to show that the band had registered that I had moved. Add a touch of style and colour to your BB5 GPS Band with the GolfBuddy BB5 Wristbands - Pack of 3.
The setup process when on course is very simple, a quick hold of the ˜OK’ button when on course and a few moments later as I’m stepping up to the tee (to completely top the ball) my BB5 has given me the yardage from the teebox with no issues whatsoever.
