This Callaway golf GPS watch comes preloaded with 30,000 courses worldwide. The satellites remained connected after they were first located. More importantly, the distances were consistently correct. It was always 1 yard within the distances recorded by our Bushnell laser rangefinder. So you can pretty much play hands-free and still get all the basic yardages. It also advances through holes automatically. When switched on and navigate to the Golf mode, the GPSy golf GPS watch takes a minute to lock into the satellites and display a list of recognized courses nearby. Knowing this will help select the right club for future shots. In the Shot distance mode, you can measure and save the shot distances for each swing. Cramming advanced scoring functions makes the whole feature buggy, in our experience. For those who want simplistic scoring function, this is both intuitive and enough. There’s a simple statistics tracking screen as well. The scorekeeping function tracks the score, Greens In Regulation and Putts per Round. The GPSy golf GPS watch has score tracking functions.

This is rarely incorporated in affordable golf GPS watches which focus only on layup distances. A feature we really appreciate is that it gives both layups and carry distances to the back of the hazards. On this screen, you have small graphics of the hazard type on the left side and distances on the right. The Callaway GPSy watch tells hazards and dogleg distances also. The top left corner shows the par information and hole number. The bottom line shows battery status and time. The distance to the front and back of the greens is in a smaller font next to it. In the middle line, to the left, you have a small schematic of the greens with the hole position. On the top right corner, you have the distance to the center of the greens in a large font. GPSy displays yardages in a very appealing format. It magnetically attaches to the four dots on the left side of the watch. – Yardages: This golf watch comes with a magnetic charging dock.

However, they may look huge on petite wrists. – Charger: The Callaway Golf GPSy is available in two colors: All black and a white/neon green combination. This is not a touchscreen device like Garmin S6. – Options: It’s sunlight-readable at all light levels. The display is negative with white characters on a black screen. There are magnetic dots on the side for charging. There are three navigation buttons on the right edge and a power button on the left.

While it’s large enough, we think it could have utilized more space on the watch face. It shouldn’t be submerged in water though. This is a water-resistant watch and can take water splashes. The watch band will fit wrists of all sizes. The strap has a horizontal pattern which gives it a nice rugged look. We expected it to be heavy but it never impeded our swing. It runs 10 inches long and 1.5 inches wide. Here’s what our tests found:Īlthough slightly clunky, you can easily get used to the design of GPSy. It is not cluttered by the more advanced features of Garmin S6. But you have access to a wider range of features like scoring with fewer button presses. It has executed the basic functions to be easy and accurate. We found the feature set of Callaway Golf GPSy watches very interesting. It’s one of our best golf GPS watches for the year. Its particular set of features satisfies both tech-savvy and tech-novice golfers. This Callaway Golf GPSy review dwells into this extremely accurate and affordable watch.
