Garmin have long been a strong contender for the crown of golf gps king but now they have gone one step further and created two units which are doing battle with each other to be named the Garmin best seller. Read on to discover the main differences between the two best selling garmin units and hopefully make your decision a lot easier. The garmin g3 is for starters more of an entry level unit than its bigger brother the Garmin g5. It comes with all the features the average golfer would need to expect to find on a solid piece of gps kit. By neatly storing more than 1200 highly detailed course plans in its small frame this unit is ready to use on courses across UK and Europe. With additional courses being uploaded daily to the garmin website there are is no chance you will find yourself playing at a course that garmin have not mapped out. The Garmin g3 unit also makes use of a highly sensitive GPS receiver which is capable of pinpointing your precise location out on the course so theres no need for a course planner to plot your yardage. With no additional set up fees or charges this is one solid easy to use piece of kit that we would highly recommend as an entry unit. So now onto the slightly more expensive Garmin G5 unit, many golfers struggle to make the quite complex decision between the two units so with this in mind we have taken great care to compare the units like for like. With the garmin g5 unit you are paying slightly more money for some additional features-like the g3 this unit benefits from no extra charges, it also has the revolutionary Tap flag mode on the screen which allows you to literally tap the flag and zoom in on the green at any stage of your game. An added benefit of this unit is the ability to track your putts per round. Most golfers describe this as one of their favourite features of the Garmin g5. By having an average number of Greens in regulation, fairways hit and average distance for every golf club stored you really will feel like you are turning up at a new golf club with the knowledge of a fully fledged member.
