December 15, 2018

Golf in itself is an expensive sport that also doubles as a leisure activity. It is very popular among a particular age group and calibre of likeminded individuals who have been able to see past the bore that the majority of people perceive golf to be. 

The sport has been able to break a few barriers that were concentrating it amongst its ardent followers, because of the leap it has received from ‘’golf tourism’’. An attempt that has been made by the interested parties to marry the sport with the tourism industry allowing a boom in both segments. Today golf tourism has taken the traditional ways of the game to a whole new level as it has not only increased the competition but the awareness of the sport among the masses. 

Thanks to modern day technology and the sporting gear that the said technology has enabled, present-day golf is more calculated and predictive as opposed to blindly teeing off wishing that the ball does not run way off course. That is why apart from the public golf clubs, balls and the bags it is important to have a GPS enabled sports golf watch that keeps track of the game for you. 

Just like any other GPS device the primary objective of a golf watch is to keep you on the loop as to where precisely the pin is and the distance between it and yourself. There are many of this sort in the market today and finding a watch that checks off all the boxes will not be hard to come by, but it is the budget that you need to keep your eyes and ears open for. 

Over 56 million people around the world have embraced golf today inspired by great players such as Tiger Woods, Rickie Fowler, Phil Mickelson who are also the key players taking part in the PGA tour 2018-19. People in business, writers, accountants and even US presidents including John F Kennedy and George H W Bush Sr. have tried their hand at golf. It is no secret that a lot of deals are discussed and weighed during a game of golf, this is why the game has been particularly popular among the high profiled gentlemen of the society.
