The ifrothgolf review
A compact handheld GPS with a touchscreen and slope-adjusted yardages, designed to clip to a bag or stick magnetically to a trolley.
What's great
Golf Monthly called it a brilliant alternative to a GPS watch or laser at this price, and that nails it. The screen is bright and readable, the auto course and hole recognition means you literally turn it on and play, and the slope-adjusted numbers are a proper addition at this end of the market. The BITE magnet is brilliant on a trolley frame, the battery does four rounds, and USB-C charging is welcome. Plugged In Golf praised how accurate and easy to use it is, and that simplicity is the whole appeal.
Worth knowing
There is no shot tracking or performance stats, so it tells you distances and nothing about your game. The screen is small for studying green shapes, and a watch is more convenient if you already wear one. Slope mode is not legal for competition use, so remember to toggle it off.
The verdict
The simplest way to get reliable yardages for not much money. Buy it, clip it on, forget about it.
