Shot Scope V2 - £169

The V2 does everything you'd expect from a GPS watch – front, middle and back of the green yardages from a golfer's real-time position – but it has one humungous bene t over a regular watch; it also tracks more than 100 tour-level stats for your game, which are broken down into ve areas: clubs, tee shots, approaches, short game and putting. It's all monitored in a beautiful online package, so you can really identify where you're dropping shots, and what needs improving. We're massive fans of this technology, and can really see how it helps everyday golfers cut their handicaps.
