“Already had the V3, so knew what to expect. I like the full hole views and ability to see how far to hazards. Also the scoring is good, took a while to get use to verifying score after hole, but very usefull. Only had a couple of edits at the end. A very good watch for the price.”

“The Shot Shope V5 is the best golf watch I have owned. Here is why... I previously owned a Garmin, great watch and does many of the same features of the Shot Scope. My Garmin broke and I couldn’t justify paying over £600 for a new one. I did my research and found that the V5 is as good as a high end Garmin without the expense. It is a bonus that Shot Scope comes with the shot tracking app and tags for free. To add this to a Gamin watch you need to pay for the tags and the UI / stats within the app are not as good as Shot Scope. Shot Scope's app is far superior! I had Arccos after it came with my clubs as standard. After the free trial it wanted me to pay a yearly subscription. I had never used Shot tracking before but found it really helpful to understand areas of my game I could improve on, I just didn’t want to pay £130 a year to access this! When I found out Shot Scope has the same data for free I was sold. I have used both the Shot Scope and Arccos systems - both are very good, I just don’t know why you would pay for Arccos when Shot Scope give you it all for free. All you need to do is buy the watch. I have tracked 6 rounds with my Shot Scope V5 and it has worked flawlessly with accurate yardages. Really happy with my purchase and looking forward using this season. Thank you Shot Scope”

“I've been with shotscope since the V2, as Game golf didn't really do it for me and I've always found Garmin to be unreliable. The V5 then. This is the watch that shotscope should have made instead of the X5. It's what we golfers and X5 users have been hoping for. No more fiddly touch screens which don't work in the rain or that well with a glove on. Proper buttons which are easy to locate and robust and work properly and are user friendly. The look of the X5 is retained too, albeit a little more plasticky - but that's fine by me. The user-friendliness has been vastly improved though - so what we effectively have with the V5 is the user friendliness of the V3 and the functionality of the X5. (I'll come onto that!). The strap is so much better than the V2 or V3 and similar to the X5. Now... to make it perfect.... all shotscope need to do is learn to appreciate that the MAIN things golfers want from their tracking watch are: 1) User friendliness. (Both on and off the course). 2) Accuracy of GPS and picking up shots etc. 3) BATTERY LIFE! You can put all the bells and whistles (hole maps, moving pins on greens etc) on your watch Shotscope... but if you don't cover the 3 main points above (and you didn't with the X5 or to some extent the V2 and V3 with battery life if nothing else) than your potential long term customers will desert you. We would far rather have a watch that DEFINITELY lasts two rounds (without hole maps and moveable pin positions on greens and touch screens etc) rather than a watch with all those bells and whistles that you SAY will cover us for two rounds, but in reality, (after a few charge and discharge cycles), barely gets us through one round. I think Shotscope are pretty well bob on with this watch. 9 out of 10 for me. And lets see how many golf holes it'll cover me for, later in the season.”

“Works well right out of the box. Hole maps are very useful. Buttons and menus are intuitive and a nice alternative to a touch screen.”
