Cheap Suunto G9 Personal Golf Instrument (Electronics) Price

Reduce your handicap, analyze your game, and simplify the scorekeeping process all in one with the Suunto G9 personal golf instrument. Designed for golfers who want to minimize the effects of luck and guesswork in their game, the G9 gives you information on clubs, games, and courses so you can concentrate on what you know best--the game itself. Though the device also includes a watch, barometer, and compass, it's the course and game manager that really stand out. When you're walking a course, the G9 tells you the distance to the pin and green, where water hazards are located, and whether a bunker or rough is in play (the device stores up to four courses in its memory, with eight features per hole). It's a perfect tool for tough courses, in effect serving as a virtual wrist-top caddie.

Each time you play, the G9 also helps you measure the length of your shots, so you know how far you knock your 3-iron vs. your 5-wood. Then, after each shot, simply update the club database with the latest distance info. Next time you sit 170 yards from the hole to an uphill pin, you'll know exactly which club to hit based on your most recent ball strikes. The device also stores game statistics in its memory, including number of putts, fairways hit, and greens hit in regulation. As a result, you won't have to hassle with annoying paperwork or a faulty memory to stay current on your game.

In addition, you can view the data instantly for real-time analysis, or you can pour over the details later using Suunto's dedicated Golf Manager PC software. The application offers graphical representations of shot trends, helps you review played games, lets you plot shots on a vectored map, and determines consistent holes in your shot-making. Golf Manager also serves as your course map database, with information on the courses you've played and have yet to play (many courses are available via download from Suunto's website). Each time you set out to play a stored course, simply connect the G9 to your PC and upload the course info. You can even share information with other like-minded golfing enthusiasts from around the world via Suunto's vast Internet community.

In addition to the course and game manager, the device is equipped with such tools as a watch, altimeter, barometer, and compass. The chronometer is time synchronized with GPS satellites, so you'll never be late for a tee time, while also offering three alarms, a calendar, and a stopwatch function. The barometer, meanwhile, alerts you when bad weather is approaching--a must in the Midwest and other thunderstorm-prone regions. Finally, the compass guides you on your golf trips to foreign cities.

Additional features include a water-resistant housing, a rechargeable battery, and a backlit display. The G9, which weighs a mere 0.17 pounds, is backed by a two-year warranty on parts and labor.
