Bushnell Wingman

A product truly unlike anything else on the market in 2020, the Bushnell Wingman truly becomes one of your buddies out on the course. It can’t sink a beer with you to celebrate you holing that birdie putt, but it can be stuck to the frame of your buggy via the magnetic Bite feature and play music from a wide variety of smartphone apps. Not only that, but it will also provide golfers with audible and accurate front, middle and back distances.

Editor's Choice 2020

Fun for all

For golfers that like to have fun out on the course during social rounds with their friends, it is an ideal piece of kit to have. The music element may not be to the taste of other golfers on the course, but we’ve found the music is loud enough for your group to hear but difficult for others further afield to pick up. The quality of the audio is exceptional, you just have to make sure you have a killer playlist ready.

To get it going is simple. Just pair the Wingman with your music source (e.g. mobile phone) and the Bushnell Golf App. Then press remote button to get audible GPS distances from your Bushnell Golf App.

You haven’t got worry about manually advancing the hole distances as the Bushnell Wingman does it automatically. It also boasts 10 hours of battery life and can even charge other devices if you need it to.

While it possibly caters more for the US market, it really appeals to anyone who tends to use a buggy and wants to enjoy music while they play to take away any tension during friendly rounds. Coming in under £150, the Bushnell Wingman GPS Speaker offers excellent value for money and may well be the best playing partner you’ve ever had!
