subject: Onpar Golf Gps Review -- From Golfer Feedback [print this page] Back in September '05, the use of distance measuring devices was approved by the United States Golf Association (USGA). This denoted that the use of golf rangefinders and GPS systems was perfectly legal once 2006 rolled in, although this law was still subject to local regulations. A typical golfer was now given the opportunity to greatly enhance their time spent on the golf course. In this brief review I'm going to cover the pros and cons of the Onpar Golf unit.
This model not only shows you distances to targets, it enables you to touch anywhere on the course to see both distances to that point. Packaged with a protective skin cover, highly legible quick start guide and USB cable for computer use, the Onpar Golf is a highly valuable tool. Many golfers have described the unit as being comparable to a personal caddy. The company that manufactures the Onpar Golf GPS unit, Savant GPS, LLC., has promised to provide golfers with the statistics needed for better game play and less strokes altogether.
You'll find it a snap to look at the data of your games, so you can start working toward improvement. This device includes recommendations that are based on your current statistics and keep track of them by course, hole and every round played altogether. There are no additional fees for downloading other courses if you buy this package. Some people lament that the golf course they want isn't on the menu.
Read these Onpar buyer reviews:
"Within a few seconds, the unit is fully activated. I did some research and learned that the Onpar Golf system has more course downloads that I engage in than other brand labels do."
"People have come up, and asked me how many yards were left to the pin. I am glad I bought this and not the more expensive one The price is well worth it."
"Even though I'm sure I would like this device, I can't get it because it's not Mac compatible, so they just lost a customer."
Summary of the Onpar Golf Touchscreen GPS Review
You can touch anywhere on the touch screen to see both distances, and you can drag the image to see anywhere on the course. The unit's proficiency in gauging distance and providing realistic recommendations based on a user's current stats makes this GPS system nearly as crucial as your caddy. It's a portable golf professional that can help you immensely. If you are at all interested in the Onpar Golf GPS, keep in mind that it beats out all other golf GPS systems and rangefinder units on the market.
