Professional golfers don't pay caddies 10% just to carry their clubs; the real value is all about the hours that the caddie spends mapping yardages and distances on the golf course. Obviously knowing detailed yardage information to every green, hazard or sand trap on a golf course will improve your game.

Golfing GPS and laser rangefinders are designed to bring the knowledge of a caddie to any golfer. Everyone I know who has tried either type of these yardage devices has experienced at least a couple strokes improvement per round.

Accurate Knowledge of Yardage for Each Club

One of the lesser appreciated benefit of a yardage device is for the golfer to know exactly how far you hit each of your golf clubs. This allows you to have much greater confidence when hitting a tough golf shot, over water or in front of a bunker.

For me, without a golf GPS or laser rangefinder, when I'm shooting over water, not only do I have to guess the carry distance, but also what the best club is for me to carry that yardage.

With a golf GPS or laser rangefinder, I can map all my clubs on the driving range and for example know that I hit my 8 iron anywhere from 140 - 155 yards. This improves my accuracy and more importantly improves confidence when making tough shots.

Improved Knowledge of the Golf Course

The primary benefit of GPS and rangefinders is to get insider knowledge of the course. Without these devices distance judgment is mostly guessing, "feel" and based on experience. If you're playing a new course the lack of specific yardage distances can lead to missed shots and cost you valuable strokes.

Having at hand the exact yardage to the front, center and back of the green, not only helps you judge what club to hit and how hard to hit it, but also can help you make better decisions.

A lot of good players, not only decide where to aim their shot, but also the preferred spot to miss. A yardage tool can help make these choices and make you a smarter player who shoots lower scores.

In conclusion, grabbing a laser rangefinder or golf GPS device and take strokes off your score and help you have a lot more fun, by bringing the course management and insider knowledge of a caddie to every round you play.

Looking to improve your course management skills? Turn to the uPro golf GPS system, which employs state-of-the-art GPS, aerial, and satellite technology to accurately render the details of thousands of golf courses. The uPro starts by providing the avid golfer with aerial and satellite photographs of the golf course, so you can see what the hole looks like before you play it. At the same time, the unit's built-in GPS system clearly locates the golf course hazards and flagstick, so you know what you're up against at any moment. With each glance at the 2.2-inch, high-resolution color screen, you can see a different view of the fairway, check out the upcoming sand traps and water hazards, or receive a distance marker that helps you select the correct club length. Even more impressive, the uPro's SmartView technology anticipates the hazards that you'll face on your next shot, so you can plan accordingly based on the strengths of your game. Don't want to carry water on your second shot? The SmartView technology's dynamically generated "viewports" will tell you which area of the fairway or rough will provide a water-free path.

The uPro offers aerial and satellite photographs of thousands of golf courses.

The easy-to-comprehend user-interface is crisp and intuitive.

The uPro is remarkably easy to carry, with a sleek and unobtrusive design that fits in a pocket or belt holder without interfering with your natural golf swing. In addition, the unit has the quickest startup time of any golf GPS system, with a super-fast GPS locking system. And thanks to the high GPS sensitivity, the uPro remains locked even under the most extreme conditions.

The uPro offers two basic modes for golf course downloads. In Basic mode, the uPro shows the distance to the front and back of all hazards and differentiates the type of hazards. Each hazard is automatically displayed in sequential order based on the current user position, and then is updated as the user moves throughout the hole. Basic mode also provides a green view, with large, easy-to-read numbers that depict the distance to the front, center, and back of the green. In Pro mode, meanwhile, the device offers a video flyover that lets the user see the layout of the hole from an aerial perspective. From the center of the green, users can see the 100-, 150-, and 200-yard markers. The Pro mode also offers scale-accurate measurements that are used to measure to and from any point on the golf course, even from the outskirts of the rough.

The uPro is compatible with Windows XP, Vista, and Mac OS X v10.4 or later (Windows 2000 is the oldest version of Windows that is compatible with the uPro). However, note that the uPro does not require any additional software to connect with the uPro servers. Instead, users can easily download golf courses at uPro's web site. Once you're online, the web site gives the user a list of all golf courses in the U.S.--in your choice of Basic or Pro mode--on a click-and-buy basis. The unit's GPS technology also automatically determines which courses are nearby. And as an add-on software download, the device can accept voice commands to make menu navigation virtually hands-free.

The uPro comes with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, a wall adapter, a USB cable, and a single free Pro mode download of any golf course. The device comes with a six-month warranty.
