If you're looking for the latest dose of technology to compliment your time on the green, then take a gander at Garmin's Approach S3 golf watch. An upgrade from the Approach S1, this GPS-enabled gadget adds a touchscreen to the mix and now provides assistance for 27,000 courses across the globe. While it won't help with your swing, users will benefit from a wealth of location-based guidance such as layup distances, green overviews and precise yardages to the front, back and middle of the next green. The waterproof wristwatch offers eight hours of continuous battery life, and while its $350 retail price may deter some, it could be a wise investment should your game involve a friendly wager. Ready for more? Just hop the break for Garmin's promo video and the full PR.

如果能有一种仪器，能定位丢失的高尔夫球就好了。我一定买。找回200个球等于仪器free了。谁能研究开发一下。一定有很大的市场。

There is already one, but you need to play with a special ball. See 笑老大的 earlier post on Radar Golf Ball <http://www.radargolf.com/swf/demo/StartDemo.html> Don't know how the ball will perform however compared to regular ones such as ProV1.

哪能买到这种设备？redar ball贵吗？如果丢了，连ball 带chip都丢了。

说实话不值的啦。多去练习场你肯定会少丢不少球。

两年前我18洞可丢二十来球。现在一场球有时一个球能打完。罚杆太多，丢不起球啊！

不完全一样，radar ball是特制的。要发明一种找普通球的仪器才能发财。。。

就像我们在美国球场看到的，有的旗杆中间嵌有激光反射玻璃，供早期的Range finder配套使用。而现在的Range finder已经不再需要特殊的反射装置了。什么都有可能。。。

我新买的 Golf Buddy在我打36洞后还有电。 刚从Augusta回来，容后报告。
