Pocket-sized GPS

[bobbyclampett!!]

Sorry if this thread already exists (I searched this forum for "GPS" and didn't see it), but I'm wondering what the best GPS device is that would fit in your front pants pocket discretely. I currently have a SkyCaddie watch that I hate wearing and it has very limited information (front middle back, that's it- no fairway info, carry information, no hazard info, etc.). I keep it in the cart or strap it to my bag if I'm walking, but it's a cumbersome and inefficient system.

 

My friend had one the other day that was pretty small, could fit in a pocket, and you clicked through for info. Not sure what it was.

 

I am looking for a small, slim GPS (maybe 1.5"X1.5"x.1") that would fit in front pants pocket, and have tons of carry and hazard and fairway info in addition to green info.

 

Any clear winner out there?

 

Thanks in advance for help.

I carry my Garmin G6 in a pocket.

My original uPro finally died, I was looking for something small, and came across the Golf Buddy CT2. It's small and easily pocketable, has a clip on the back to attach to a golf bag, and comes with a lanyard to wear around your neck of attach it to something. It boots up fast and the update process is pretty easy. I'll be getting it out on the course in two weeks to test it.

Sounds like the new Garmin G10 is exactly what you're looking for.

Hey guys, thanks for the info.

 

That Garmin G10 looks pretty great. Makes my SkyCaddie watch look pretty pathetic... GolfBuddy CT2 looks comparable.

 

Anybody have experience with either of those specific products or those brands in general? I have heard of Garmin, of course, and assume they make quality stuff. Never heard of GolfBuddy...

The G10 hasn't been released yet. Should be out in a week or two.

 

I've had several Garmin watches and have been very pleased with them. I have the new S20 watch on Preorder.

 

I highly doubt you'll be disappointed with the G10.

Awesome. Sounds great. I think I will order or pre-order one. I'm super excited about it. Love that the courses are pre-downloaded. Downloading the courses on the SkyCaddie watch was a major ordeal.

 

Thanks for the tip.

 

Now if I could just hit a fairway...
