Golfers need to be strategic thinkers. They’ve got to be smart with their physics, math, and problem solving to be able to get that little ball into a tiny hole in 3 to 5 shots. But gadgets can make life on the golf course both easier and more fun! 

We’ve reviewed the best golf gadgets you can find today. It was a tough choice (so many cool things out there!) but these are the ones we recommend choosing if you can only get a few!

Most Stylish: High-Definition Golf Ball Finder Sport Glasses 

For the golfers who have difficulty picking their ball up in flight or beyond 175 and in clouds, this may be the gadget for you! 

These glasses are lightweight and help block blue light, allowing for more contrast between the sky and golf ball. This helps you keep track of your golf ball in flight. 

The TR90 frame has an ergonomic design that sits comfortably and they have a little flex to them so they’ll fit over a hat. The polycarbonate green golf lens is non-polarized, has an anti-reflection coating, offers both UV and glare protection, and is scratch-resistant. 

Best for Swing Analysis: Arccos Caddie Smart Sensors 

Having accurate data about your swing at your fingertips can provide valuable insights that may save you a few strokes during your next round of golf!

Arccos Caddie’s smart sensors use artificial intelligence to provide you with detailed information on the mechanics of your swing. 

They track every single shot you make, learn how you like to play, and then make recommendations on what club you should use for your next shot. 

Using GPS, they also provide yardage distance to the green and the hazards that guard it. You’ll also get real-time data on wind speed, temperature, humidity, altitude, angle, and slope so you can adjust your shot accordingly. 

Simply attach the sensors to the end of your club. You can use the app on your phone or purchase the Arccos Caddie Link, which you can clip onto your belt. This will allow you to leave your phone in your bag while it continues to track all your stats for you to review later.
