Pros? Cons?

Depends on the level of your game, but I find also knowing front and back distances helpful. Also makes the game a little more fun and let’s you know your iron distances.

I have the Apple Watch 7 and golfpad installed. The 7 has independent GPS so if I walk away from the cart/phone the yardage follows me.
