I want you to play better – you can use devices to do good and to do harm to your game. I go through 3 holes with a rangefinder, 3 holes with a GPS watch and 3 holes by pacing. What’s the difference? How do you use a golf rangefinder?

You can use the rangefinder for so many things besides distance to the pin. You can use the GPS watch to track your distance, analyze your game and also as a way to navigate the course. Pacing is fine, but you do need to take physical notes and with the advent of Google Earth, you can create great guides for yourself.

But you must know HOW to do it without wasting your time, and adapt it to YOUR game. Everything about golf is about YOU. No one else. Nothing else. ONly YOU and your brain and mind, your physical limits, your physical abilities. Nothing else.

  1. Rangefinder for me because that's what I bought! Blind shots can be tough, especially on a new course. But I usually try to play with a good bud that rocks a GPS. Problem solved! Ha.

  2. "I've always been crazy and it's kept me from going insane" another classic! Another great video fella. Keep them coming.

  3. For courses I know like the back of my boyfriends, I use a rangefinder just to shoot flags/bunkers. The thing I love with my watch (garmin s60) is that I can see a map of the hole and can just as you showed besides the watch at 9:15, drag to a place on the map of the hole and see how far it is to the point I'm interested in and how far is will be left to the hole from that point. For courses I don't know this helps TONES so that I easily can see how far I will have left and plan my next shot from a yardage I feel comfortable with, just like you taught me.

  4. Personally i use both, watch for general distance and playing to middle of greens etc, range finder for hazards and pins i can attack

  5. I Pfeffer für GPS watch, cause kg Works quick ans shows all für hazards, edges etc.. Greetings Form Bavaria , Germany

  6. I use my garmin GPS watch. Rough distance to danger, distance to front and back of greens. I'll verify any substantial danger off the tee with a rangefinder. Wear my watch all the time anyway, so it's comfortable and familiar, another positive when finding your comfort on the course!!

    Play on Playas!

  7. I'm a GPS guy. Why? I can't close one eye at a time. Using rangefinders, guns, telescopes, all extremely difficult. I'll wait for the laughs.

  8. "Never give up on the good times, always believe in the love you share." This is the single most interesting quote I've ever heard from a golfer or golf channel. Absolutely a hole in one. It's both inspiring and slightly confusing at the same time.

  9. I like using a combination of range finer with phone GPS. I can zap bunkers and trouble while also also checking gps to not fall in love with Pin seeking shots to the green with the range finder

  10. Another very useful course management "device" is in fact a caddie. Local knowledge is worth a lot! Of course, 99% of golfers will never experience a round with a caddie.

    That "caddie no good" got you a taste of the evil eye there, playa.

  11. How does someone put on weight eating Thai food??? I lose 1kg per week when I go. Thailand is my diet plan… I just need to go for a couple months. Its been a while.

  12. I use gps way more often than range finder. Usually because I’m in wrong fairway and have no line of site to pin 😂😂🥃

  13. Seems like the choices are :
    1) pace it off – PGA tour players with caddies.
    2) rangefinder – useful for single digit handicap who are accurate enough to benefit and useful for handicaps up to about 30 when playing a course with huge changes in elevation. Otherwise higher handicaps are pretty much just waisting time compared to using a GPS watch.
    3) GPS watch – anybody playing when the course is full plus everyone bogey golf or worse. I don't enjoy waiting around so much behind gofers who seem like their birdwatching with their range finder.🙈
    4) Those with professional caddies don't need anything other than the dinero for the caddie.

  14. Definitely GPS because then I can see how far it is to the next green while I’m doing shizers from the woods because of all the vegetables I ate last night

  15. I wear my garmin watch for the girls in the clubhouse, but use the GPS on my Powakaddy trundler…… but a Rangefinder to target the Karens on the course also seems like a valid purchase

  16. Watch for GIOTG, carry or short of hazards and for layups.
    Rangefinder to pins around 3 times per round, to see OOB on dogleg or to a specific place that the watch cannot tell me 🙂

  17. I use the watch pretty much religiously

    I very rarely shoot the pin with the laser when hitting irons in

    I trust the GPS

    Where I do find the laser really good is for the shorter wedge shots

    The Way of the Playa has me working on hitting better short shots

    That laser when I see I am 30m 40m 50m 60m 70m out means I can then assess which of my 3 types of swings to deploy as I know my club distances with these swings

    I am seeing improvement in my game between 30 and 70 metres because of this
