MADISON, WI – Since the USGA and the R&A changed the rules regarding electronic measuring devices (EMD’s) in 2006, EMD’s have experienced an expanding popularity, and with it a growing confusion over the differences between laser rangefinders and handheld GPS. A new website, www.laserisbetter.com, has recently been released, and is designed to offer a golfer the facts they need to know. It will allow any player the chance to compare the two technologies in one easy to use interface.
Featured on the site are easy-to-navigate pages that highlight myths about GPS, offer a side-by-side comparison of the two technologies, and present expert testimonial on the inaccuracy of GPS. No other location provides such a comprehensive comparison between the two types of EMD’s.
“We believe that www.laserisbetter.com offers the facts that GPS companies won’t tell you,” said Rob O’loughlin, president of Laser Link Golf. “GPS cannot measure distance to the flagstick and it cannot guarantee accuracy, but the advertisements would have you believe differently. It simply can’t do these things, and that is why there are no top players using GPS to measure distance.”
