Introducing Distances to Hazards

28 February 2018

With Shot Scope’s “Forever Free Firmware” promise there are always new features being released to enhance the product. The eagerly awaited Distances to Hazards is the first of many which will provide users with even more functionality on their wrist.

The distances to hazards update will be released prior to April 1st for all V2 users, and includes distances to and over bunkers/water, new penalty recording functionality and a timer function for lost balls.

In addition to the existing Dynamic Yardages to F/M/B of greens, V2 will now also provide golfers with the to/carry distance of every hazard, in yards or meters depending on preference. This update solidifies V2’s status as the world’s smartest golf watch, providing every golfer with all of the information they need both on and off course to improve. The new and existing distances work hand in hand with Shot Scope’s club insights which show the distance and usage of every club in a golfer’s bag. Combining this information with on-course readings to the green and hazards ensures that users can make confident, educated shots every time and on every course.

Also included in this update is an extension of the penalty facility which will now allow for every situation to be recorded without post-round editing. Letting you move on from a penalty shot as quickly as possible…! We have also incorporated a timer as a bonus feature, allowing you to countdown the 5 minutes when looking for your, or your partner’s, ball.

How do I upgrade?

Distances to Hazards will be available by April 1st. We’ll get in touch when it’s time to update your watch and provide full instructions on how to do so.
