Best golf DMDs 2018: Lasers

Bushnell Hybrid

Best golf DMDs 2018

Five years on from the original we now get front and back numbers displayed when zapping and have Bushnell’s superb Jolt technology to let us know we’ve locked on to the pin.

SRP: £399

More information can be found on the Bushnell website.

GolfBuddy LR7

Best golf DMDs 2018

Small, simple but very effective. This gets the job done but does struggle to zap the pin when there are trees behind the green. Comes with a premium hard case.

SRP: £249.99

More information can be found on the GolfBuddy website.

Nikon Coolshot 80i VR

Best golf DMDs 2018

One of the smallest lasers on the market but a really clear display with a large cross to help zap the pin. Vibration-reduction technology keeps the image steady.

SRP: £419

More information can be found on the Nikon website.

Golfbuddy WTX

Best golf DMDs 2018

Large but surprisingly light. We love the different displays which can be changed with a tap on the touchscreen. Simple operation with just the one button on the side.

Shotscope V2

Best golf DMDs 2018

The watch is on the large side but it’s unobtrusive. The yardages are accurate and the level of post-round detail is very impressive and nicely displayed.

SRP: £225

TomTom Golfer 2

Best golf DMDs 2018

Compact but sturdy. Automatic shot detection for round tracking via the Tom Tom app. Vibration can be a bit distracting.

Garmin S60

Best golf DMDs 2018

Packed with features for golf and other lifestyle activities. Aerial maps alongside the yardages are very useful. Hands down the most stylish watch to wear away from the golf course.

SRP: £399

Sky Caddie Linx GT

Best golf DMDs 2018

A smart GPS watch in its own right. If you opt for the game-tracking it’s easy to set up and gives superb post-round stats. Having to tap before each shot the only negative.
