Tech Talk

The GolfBuddy WTX+ builds on the success of the WTX with a number of technical and aesthetic features that have been added to further strengthen the product. A key advancement is the improved antenna strength, which speeds up the time for courses to be located.

This technical development means users will get an even quicker yardage should they stray off line.

A further upgrade has seen a stylish new strap introduced with a new metallic finish for the bezel.

In a competitive market place, a great emphasis has been placed on improving the aesthetics with more golfers wearing GPS watches off the course.

However, golf-wise, the WTX+ continues to impress, too, with its simple and fast touch user interface and GolfBuddy’s Dynamic Green View providing pinpoint distances from a golfer’s position.

The full hole view and key yardages, as well as quick and accurate measurements from any fairway – even the wrong ones – means users can dial in on their target with confidence.
