Maybe if you were more concerned about the elements (precise yardage, wind, wetness, green firmness..etc.) you would learn to be better than just an average golfer. This lacluster attitude you have taken is one reason you probably aren't improving your game. The example you gave about not having a 164 yard club, you said you hit a 7 iron 160-165. 164 yards is at the high end of your 7 iron range. So being an average golfer, you would have to hit that 7 iron as well as you can hit it to get to the hole. This is not considering wind, spin, pin placement or anything else. Knowing the exact yardage can help you determine whether you want to jump on that 7 or club up to the 6 and hit a smooth swing. That being said, I can't stand a 6 hour round just as much as anyone. Assessing shots and conditions is part of the game and golfers are going to continue to take the time for this, as they should, and thats why I believe the gps will be a good thing. This should speed up the game. I can only disagree with you.
