Golf GPS rangefinders are used in golf to assist the player in accurately determining the distance to certain fixed points on a golf course, such as the green or numerous hazards. They can either be a standalone purpose built device or a piece of software installed on another device, such as a smartphone, which contains GPS hardware. Especially helpful for better golfers, who will generally have better distance control, there are clear advantages to knowing the precise yardages compared with traditional methods of determining distance, such as distance maps and pacing.
