HOW CAN I GET THE BEST YARDAGE FOR MY GOLF SHOTS?

There is an ongoing discussion what is the best way to get distances when on the golf course. Should I use a GPS or Rangefinder Unit? The first is the Rule book interjection on the topic which limits them, for the most part, to casual play. There are tournament exceptions to the point but even at that point the player must know what the limits to the capability of the equipment one is using.

If Rangefinders are your choice of equipment, the read the following article from my friends at MySpyGolf: Best Rangefinder for 2022 

Personally, I am more inclined to play with a GPS unit than a Rangefinder because of the fact that I grew up in the yardage book era. For that reason, I feel more comfortable when pulling a club knowing that I can clear that obstacle or not reach the water when playing than knowing just how far the pin is away. Not all, but most GPS systems have a link to or internal green maps which aids to the decision process. The use of the Rangefinder here can also help with the knowledge of the size of the green and the distance to the center of the green. At this point the player/caddie must use the brain power to make that great decision and get closer to the pin.

So look carefully at the many GPS system out there on the market in addition to the reviewed rangefinders. Your game will improve with the proper application for your game.
