Is the golfbuddy WT4 accurate in Chicago?

Since there isn’t currently any golf being played in Chicago, I tested the GolfBuddy WT4 in Florida at Streamsong. I pitted the GolfBuddy WT4’s accuracy against two reliable sources: my Leupold laser rangefinder and one of Streamsong’s professional caddies.

How good is the battery life on the WT4?

One major concern with many GPS devices is battery life, and I found the WT4 to be excellent in this regard. It powered through over 8 consecutive hours in golf mode and still indicated 1/4 battery life. I will admit, however, that the WT4 was not on my wrist that entire time.

How does the WT4 work?

The WT4 does provide a lot of information beyond yardages to the front, center, and back of greens. First, it provides distances to a variety of hazards. Because it doesn’t provide an overhead view of the hole, the WT4 relies on images to identify different hazards and “R” and “L” to indicate which side of the hole they’re on.

The GolfBuddy WT4 is extremely easy to use, accurate, and has great battery life. This is the best golf GPS watch I’ve used.

Introduction

Pace of play is one of golf’s biggest problems. My solution? Give everyone a GPS watch. I never play faster than when I get my yardages from a watch. I love my laser, but for speed and simplicity, a GPS watch can’t be beat, and the best I’ve tried is the GolfBuddy WT4.

Set Up & Ease of Use

The set up required for the GolfBuddy WT4 is charging it and turning it on. That’s it. You don’t need to pair it with your phone, sync it with your computer, or give it your social security number. Once it’s powered up, simply flip it into golf mode and it will identify the course you’re on and give you accurate yardages.

Accuracy & Performance

Since there isn’t currently any golf being played in Chicago, I tested the GolfBuddy WT4 in Florida at Streamsong. I pitted the GolfBuddy WT4’s accuracy against two reliable sources: my Leupold laser rangefinder and one of Streamsong’s professional caddies.

Value

The GolfBuddy WT4 retails for $250, making it GolfBuddy’s premium GPS watch offering. I think that it’s equal to or better than any golf GPS watch on the market, so it’s worthy of the premium price. The one included accessory that I particularly like is the wall charger which allows you to charge the watch without your computer.

Conclusion

If speed and convenience are your top priorities, you want a GPS watch, and if you want a GPS watch, you need to seriously consider the GolfBuddy WT4. It’s incredibly easy to use while also being very accurate and long on features.
