Bushnell Smartwatch ION Edge Golf GPS Touchscreen Black 362130

Product Information

These may not rank amongst the best golf shot apps and devices, but they will give you the tools you need to improve your scores through better strategy decisions and club selections. Versatility The new Bushnell ION EDGE combines functional simplicity with cutting-edge technology in an easy-to-use design with over 38,000 preloaded courses worldwide. Where this watch sets itself apart is the Slope functionality, which is very rare even among the best golf watches and is accessed via the golf settings. You can choose to toggle the Slope feature on/off or if you want to make sure your Ion Elite is completely legal for competition play, you can opt for the tournament mode. Once you enable these settings, a coloured ring will appear around the outside of the home screen display as a reminder. If it’s blue, that means the watch is displaying slope compensated distances, and if it’s orange it isn’t and required further calibration by taking it to a tee box or green. A white ring indicates tournament mode has been switched on. Some golfers will love getting their hands on all this data – and you certainly pay for the privilege. As regular golfers ourselves, the Approach S62 simply offers too much for too much cash, but if you want the best there's little out there to match it. The iconic 1-18 is etched onto the dial, and this corresponds to on-screen data to show the current hole.

It's not totally bereft of features. You get a shot measuring tool, scoring on the wrist, a more rudimentary green view. It will also pair up with the CT10 to log your shots, and has 30 hours of battery life. Pro XE: To select between yards and meters, press and hold the Mode button which is next to the Power button. Press the Power/Fire button to confirm your units preference and exit the Settings menu. The Pro Xe will return to the last unit of measure setting used each time the unit is turned on. Once paired, the Main (L) speaker LED Indicator Ring slowly flashes orange Note: In TWS connection, only the Main (L) speaker supports Speakerphone.

Sporting a super thin profile, comfortable perforated strap, ultra-long battery life and up to 6 hazard distances per hole. Preloaded with over 38,000 courses in more than 30 countries and no membership fees ever - the new iON Edge GPS watch is set to change and improve the way you assess distances, ultimately improving your performance. Overall, the ION Edge just doesn’t quite live up to the usual standards I’d expect from Bushnell with the likes of their Tour V5 Shift laser, with the brand even branching into launch monitors in the US in the near future. The iON does feature a touch screen layout, something which should be easier to use than the Garmin's buttons on the side. However, we found it to be a tad unresponsive, while at the same time being annoyingly sensitive to a misplaced finger.If you're able to master this temperamental aspect though, it is a very good performer for the price. Features Bushnell on the other hand doesn't give you this option, with the watch specifically designed for golf and golf only. Despite it telling the time, the styling is such that you probably wouldn't want to wear it off the course whereas the Garmin gives you more reasons to, including the more modern screen and overall look and feel. Value

The watch is relatively straightforward to set up by pairing with the companion Bushnell Golf app, which also doubles as a GPS app and can be used to manage settings on the watch including date and time and course updates. The battery life is excellent, with three full rounds played so far during my testing without the need to recharge. The GreenView technology is a clever addition, allowing you to pinpoint exactly where the flag is on the green so that you can get a more precise distance. This could be useful on new golf courses where you aren’t as familiar with the greens, or on big greens where you really want to be specific with your yardages. A: For music, the Wingman’s "True Wireless Sound" (TWS) technology enables you to use two Wingman speakers paired via Bluetooth to create a wireless dualchannel system, delivering true stereo sound. Note: a single Wingman provides mono audio, internally mixing together left and right channels of the streamed audio source. ION EDGE also features auto hole advance and auto course recognition to get you out on the course playing in seconds, while added extras including greenview with moveable pin positions, dynamic green mapping and over 15+ hours of battery life complete this excellent value for money device.The watch itself is also lightweight and compact, a big improvement on previous Bushnell GPS watches which have been a little chunky, which means that it is unobtrusive on the course whilst playing.

The error code indicates that your devices operating system has been corrupted. Most of the time it is from the device being disconnected from the cable without safely ejecting the device from your computer's operating system. Sync your runs or bike rides using the fitness data function on your Bushnell Excel GPS Golf Watch to closely evaluate average speed, pace and distance.
