Christmas is still about a half year ahead but I already have my wish list. The top of my wish list is a Garmin wrist GPS. It’s a cool gadget that everyone should have. Imagine, a GPS unit in your fingertips—actually, in your wrist. You’ll never get lost in your outdoor adventure.
The Garmin wrist GPS is meant for outdoor activities that require hands free operation. This will include kayaking, mountain biking and hang gliding. Fact is, any outdoor activity can benefit from this gadget. Getting lost in the woods is no fun. Even if you don’t do any outdoor activity, it’s still a cool toy to have.
Professional golfers are lucky for a number of obvious reasons. They get to play the most exclusive courses in many of the worldâs great vacation destinations â and they get paid for it. But pro golfers enjoy a few other advantages that are a bit more subtle. For example, they have the means to hire a caddy. Caddies perform many valuable functions such as carrying clubs, reading greens and making strategic recommendations.
Perhaps the most indispensable talent a caddy must possess is a keen sense of range. Most professionals can estimate distances to the green to within a few feet. Now, thanks to the advent of products such as the Golf Buddy GPS, recreational players can take a virtual caddy around the course with them. This electronic rangefinder wonât carry your clubs, but it could very well shave a few strokes off your round.
