GolfBuddy Aim W11 Golf Watches With GPS - Premium Full Color Touchscreen - Easy-to-use Golf Watches

Product Information

The watch also has a “green view” mode that will help you figure out how far away from the green edge you are. This is useful on long putts! You can search courses by country, state, and city. You can also look up when the course was last updated. Touch the arrows next to the hole number until you see the desired hole number and then press that number.

What I did find unhelpful is illustrated in the picture below. If you swipe to the ‘hazard’ screen you get distances to every hazard on the hole. So if you are on a heavily-bunkered par 5 for example, you get information overload, such that I gave up even trying to use that feature. It’s a bit of a shame because that information is potentially useful. I’m aware that a competitor watch has a filter in ‘settings’ so that you only get relevant hazard yardages. That, GolfBuddy development team, would be my recommendation for the aim W13. The Visiblity can be turned off if you no longer want your WTX to be discoverable to other bluetooth enabled devices.Green undulation displays the gradation of the slope of the green through different colors - blue being the lowest point of incline and red being the highest. This addition will you a more realistic view of the course, resulting in more precision. If the unit does not last near 2 rounds of golf, please make sure you are charging the unit for about 4 hours prior to use.

I personally don’t use a GPS watch when playing on a course for which I have already uploaded all my data because there’s no need, but I can see how this would be a problem for some people. The Golf Buddy also has an auto-hole advance feature that will automatically move to the next hole when you cross over into another fairway. The industry-changing addition of this makes it an absolute must-have device for any golfer who’s going to be playing on courses with undulating greens or anyone looking to improve their putting skills! The GolfBuddy aim W12 is a premium GPS watch. As a watch ‘novice’ I found it straightforward to set up and use. It has lots of features, most of which are useful. Supported models: VTX, VOICEX, WTX, WT6, VOICE2, VOICE2 SE, VOICE2S+, BB5, WT5, VS4, PT4, Voice+, Voice, V10, W10, W11, W12We first tested the W11 on the new course at Essendon Country Club, a course that has been designed with two greens on each hole. Despite this unique course design feature, we were pleasantly surprised to find the aim W11 was aware of this and in fact has a dedicated feature that allows you to switch between greens depending on which you are playing. NOTE: If you have a WORLD unit, please replace the MENU button with the PROPLAY button to perform this reboot. I didn’t use several of the other features such as the touch IP, but I can see that it is a useful tool. Nor did I use the scorecard feature. I’m interested in the green undulation feature which I think is unique to GolfBuddy but at the time I tested it wasn’t available in the UK. It has since been released. You can also measure shots that you’ve hit. It’s a very easy-to-use feature but I just tended just to use it after a solid strike downwind or downhill. The W11 comes at around RM990 or so, or if you can get it below RM890 on occasions where there is a promotion. Either way, it’s good value for money.

I was pleasantly surprised with how accurate this watch ended up being; I was able to consistently get within a yard of my actual distance. While this may sound like a problem with all GPS watches, it annoyed me when I teed off at KGNS first hole and the damn watch was still searching for the GPS. It was a cloudy day, yes, so it’s probably the reason. I was halfway through my par 5 when the watch sorted out it’s GPS and told me to go to the tee box to start the game. Not cool. Once you see the EMERGENCY REBOOT screen, please release the Menu button but leave your unit connected to the USB cable until the process completes.
