I have a golf yardage device that clips onto my hat.....it gives you the yardage to the pin.....has a nice diagram on it of the greens etc with front and back yardages also......works very good too....$100...however I like all the features of this watch you are showing plus it.is a multi sport watch......watch or no watch....Marcus never saw the Carter freight train coming lol.
Couldn't agree more...back here in the UK the 1st company to sell a GPS (,that I saw) was a company called snooper and I bought it right away...and I have regularly upgraded ...they are far more accurate than non users think and when your on the fairway you might have a rough idea of the yardage but once your offline your in the lap of the gods without a distance measuring device .....you nail your clubs down to your real yardage and not the imaginary ones alot of people play to.
Nice playing Carter. I'm a high handicapper and use an old garmen. All's it has is the middle, front and back of the green. It has an app that gives distances to bunkers and other obstacles. It works great for me. Don't think I need all that other stuff. I still think that Useing those watches slow play down some. But good luck to anybody that uses that tech.
Its all personal preference and its nice to have a variety of options available to all consumers. Front middle back and playing the same courses each time is generally all you need
That NIPPEYH SPINNEH was gorgeous! Great hype-music for the second teeshots. Great looking watch but out of my price range as I am saving for an upcoming fitting.
Great to see you back out playing on the course and doing vlogs. That nippy spinner shot was totally mint by the way. Felt sorry for Marcus with that fresh air shot; hellish lie and you saying it would be great if he feel in the water; BANTZ! Cheers
I really enjoyed the review,. I agreed with everything, but when trying to load a new course I have found the watch unreliable and courses fail to load. It looks and feels great and as a smart watch it works well.
If Marcus was a true mate he would have fell in the water after whiffing that chip yo help this video go viral 😂. Long time follower here was Brian Rizza but lost my phone
Sorry but there is no way I would pay that sort of money for a golf watch. I do have a Garmin watch which cost about £160. The times I've used the keep score option it thinks I'm 10 yards from the flag even when I have just putted out. So I just have it attached to my trolley handle to see where I am in relation to the green.
I purchased this watch this past Christmas and I’ve had so many problems with it. I brought it back to the Tag Heuer store a couple times. They finally inspected it and said it was defective so they replaced it. The watch is very cumbersome to operate and I’ve had to do a hard reset multiple times. The battery doesn’t last long at all and probably won’t make 18 holes. The Tag Heuer app doesn’t have updated courses either if they were renovated in the past several years (i.e. Medalist Golf Club, Floridian Golf Club, Old Palm Golf Club, etc. - all have outdated courses in the app as examples.). Do not purchase this watch!
I'm sorry but IMHO GPS takes away from the game. It doesn't add to it. I'll judge my distances the old fashioned way. That may sound strange coming from someone who can write the software to do the job but I believe it's a cheat. You said it yourself. It helps with your confidence. I understand that but I think it takes something away from the game. A skill that used to help determine who wins is being replaced with a gadget.
Makes little difference from yardage books, markers, wheels, and a number of other tools people have used for years... Only it's faster and more reliable and can potentially remove another barrier to entry to the sport.
@@TimBarnesPolygonPerformance I understand all that. It doesn't change my opinion. Those yardage and greens books are also cheats for the same reasons. When the first golfer or caddie walked the course and created his own yardage book, the question is was he being innovative? I'd submit he was he cheating himself AND the field. His actions certainly forced all other players to join him because the rule makers of the time failed to protect the game. The move to allow GPS is the same. Done in the name of speeding play, when a simple shot clock would have done the trick far better. What began back then with that first player was the removal of a required skill to play the game from existence. I just can't in any way call that better. I mean what's next, lasers to show us the lines for our putts like we get in the video games? I just think the whole idea of allowing any measurements more than the standard course markers takes away from the game more than it adds to it. Sure we'll see lower scores. A lot less skill is needed to decide which club, swing speed, shot type, etc. And what's next? Slope? Wind speed adjustments? Will we have an A.I. tells us what shot to hit, with what club, what speed, and which shot shape? Or maybe lasers implanted around the greens to show us our lines like we get in video games? That might be fun to give a try sometime but it's not going to "enhance" the game. It would change it to something else. Something.....less I think.
Interesting take and it’s purely your opinion. Do you still use persimmon woods and old styles blades with leather grips? Because the enhancement of golf clubs could also be seen in the same way. I’d argue The level of skill to actually the yardage your gps has told you is higher because its more purposeful. By Guessing a yardage you could be wrong and still finish close to the flag. The more information we have the more precise we’re expected to be therefore the higher skill level needed. In my opinion
@@andycartergolf yes it's my opinion. No, I'm not using persimmon woods. An unfair comparison seeing as how manufacturers don't make them readily available on shelves at the local golf stores and even the rule makers on both sides on the pond have set limits there. So I won't be arguing our current clubs aren't a cheat too. They are. We just get no choice in the matter today. I still believe you miss the point or simply disregard it. Your choice. I'm not dissing you for your opinion. I just think you're wrong. When your battery dies on you mid round, you're left up the proverbial creek with no paddle while the skill judging distances by eye I've developed over 25 years of play will still be there. I won't loose a single stroke to a dead battery. But can you say the same Mr. Carter?

Poor Marcus had no chance haha.

Should have read 'All golfers need GPS......except Carter 😁'
Great review of the watch, always good when people give good.honest opinions
Haha true, i can just guess, get it wrong and end up close by fluke!
That NIPPEYH SPINNEH was gorgeous!
Great hype-music for the second teeshots.
Great looking watch but out of my price range as I am saving for an upcoming fitting.
I was afraid this was going to be more sponsored content but really good review and great game to watch
No not sponsored. I’ve tried to give it a balanced review but overall I do really like it.
Great to see you back out playing on the course and doing vlogs. That nippy spinner shot was totally mint by the way.

Yes i had a similar problem the first time i got it but I had one of the settings wrong and since its been fine
How do you change from view of the hole to the front/middle/back view??
OMG 😳 as soon as $2.5k was mentioned out of my league, my garmin looks cheap but I am from Yorkshire 😆😎
9.35 Marcus bladed into water the master puts it to a foot 🤣🤣🤣
Garmin Carbon DLC Fenix 6 solar... Better accessibility, functionality, battery, price, and possibly better looking (personal preference)?
How does it compare to the Garmin Marq Golfer?
Nice GPS watch
Nothing beats Bushnell Wingman. Distances plus music. Show me a watch that does that.
Haha fair point!! I do love my wingman
Watched that right to the end, thought you might be giving the watch away to a needy player 🥴 (I always watch to the end anyway)
Haha sorry mate. Id love to give one away!
I don't wanna talk about it.
If Marcus was a true mate he would have fell in the water after whiffing that chip yo help this video go viral 😂. Long time follower here was Brian Rizza but lost my phone
Haha agreed

Yeah the Garmin watches are a great investment too.
Tag Heuer is a more luxury brand and is worth more due to the materials used etc.
Can this watch measure the height difference?
No not with any watches that I know of

Shame the battery sucks
Yeh it’s not amazing to be fair. I just use mine now for daily use.

the youth of today...can't read a watch 😂
No Andy 🤣 Golf should be a mind streaming adventure like surfing a wave 😃 Statistics are subject to emotional Aptitude 🤫
