G6 Pro Golf Watch With Golf Manager Software

Improved swing consistency and simplified scorekeeping with Suunto G6 Pro

Suunto G6 helps you improve your swing consistency while making messy scorekeeping paperwork a thing of the past.

For golfers striving for a better and more consistent performance, Suunto G6 is an invaluable tool for reducing your handicap. Monitor your shots as you play, and then analyze your round with the included SGM (Suunto Golf Manager) PC software to identify the areas of your game that need improvement.

Suunto G6 enables you to practice and perfect your swing. After each swing, you can check its tempo, rhythm, backswing length and speed. The feedback you get from Suunto G6 helps you consistently repeat your best shots, developing muscle memory to remember only the good shots. After the session, you can analyze your overall consistency.

When you return to the course with your new improved skills, Suunto G6 gives you more time to focus on your game by simplifying the scorekeeping process. With four game types to choose from, both your own and your opponent's score can be easily kept - without the need for messy paperwork.

Features:
  • Watch: Calendar, alarm, stopwatch and unit's setting adjustment
  • Practice and Test modes for perfecting your swing
  • 4 different game types: Scratch Strokeplay, Stableford and Match
  • Menu-based use interface familiar from mobile phones
  • User-replaceable battery
  • Water Resistant to 30m (100 ft.)
  • Full access to SuuntoSports.com
  • Black leather strap
  • SGM PC software + USB interface cable - *Specific for Suunto Pro ONLY


      • Amazon.com Product Description
      Reduce your handicap, monitor your shots as you play, and simplify the scorekeeping process all in one with the Suunto G6 Pro personal golf instrument. The Suunto G6 Pro contains an internal sensor that measures various aspects of your swing in different situations. In practice mode, you can record information on the tempo, rhythm, backswing length, and speed of each swing, and then observe the average and deviation values of the different measurements. You can then progress to test mode, in which you play a series of shots with the same club and check your consistency index straight from the wrist-top computer. This gives you an idea of your golfing muscle memory, and how often your swing strays from its "ideal" mechanics. Use the feedback to consistently repeat your best shots while weeding out the weaker ones.

      Once you return to the course with your improved skills, the G6 Pro takes care of the details while you play by keeping score. Choose from among four different game types--scratch, Stableford, stroke play, or match--and let the G6 Pro record both your and your opponents' scores. Not only does it let you focus exclusively on your game, but it also eliminates the need for messy paperwork. At the same time, the G6 Pro monitors your shots as you play, and then analyzes your round afterward via the Suunto Golf Manager PC software (includes USB cable), which identifies the areas of your game that need improvement. The G6 Pro registers such statistical data as fairways hit, GIRs, up and downs, sand saves, putts, and penalties, and then displays the results and history of played games.

      Looking to calculate your handicap? The G6 Pro does that, too, by storing your favorite 10 courses in its memory and determining your handicap for a given course. And if your playing partners also have official handicaps, you can use the G6 to update the leaders during a round based on the players' numbers. It's the perfect tool for serious players who don't want to mess with math during a round. You can also change the names of players and courses directly on the wrist-top computer.

      Additional features include a traditional watch mode with an alarm, calendar, and stopwatch; a menu-based user interface similar to the ones used by many mobile phones; water-resistance to 100 feet; a user-replaceable battery, and a comfortable black leather wrist strap. The G6 Pro, which weighs 0.12 pounds, is backed by a two-year warranty on parts and labor.

      What's in the Box
      G6 Pro personal golf instrument, battery, software CD-ROM, USB cable, user's manual.

4 out of 5 stars Good golf swing consistency training device   May 20, 2010
Yuan Song
I bought this watch about a year ago. I use it only about 20 times on the range. Initially, I was hoping to use this watch to get my swing tempo to the "perfect" 0.25. But I can only get to 0.27~0.28 with my 2.0 handicap. I am not sure if this watch is calibrated with the more accurate devices. I end up just using this watch as a swing consistency monitor.

I found the "Test" function is the most useful function to improve the consistency of your golf swing. In Test mode, it can only hold 10 shots. I normally use same club try to hit the same target with the 10 shot. After the watch analyzing your 10 swings, you will be given a consistency index (the lower, the better). In "Practice" mode, it can store 100 shots for each session. It is very easy to download the data on the watch to your computer. It is pretty cool. But seems like the battery doesn't last very long.

It also happens to me often that: the buttons on the right side of the watch are easily being activated by the rim of my left hand glove (I am a right-hand golfer) during the normal swing. I have to reset it to the correct mode several time during my practice session.

Great product. Has helped me slow down my swing in a day! Works as described. Battery is rather expensive but not a big deal.


1 out of 5 stars It doesn't work!   July 6, 2009

What a great idea, if only it worked. I bought this as a gift for an avid golfer. The main feature that attracted me was the swing analysis function, but the watch doesn't register half of the swings. We spent more time trying to get the watch to read his swing than we actually spent practicing. What a waste. I am definitely returning it.

Nice watch. Really helps to help diagnose a consistent swing. I don't think it will really tell me what is WRONG with my swing but it will help me try to reproduce the same swing each time. Takes a bit of playing aorund to figure it out...the instructions are ok but pretty minimal. And ... it can always help you keep score. BTW software is NOT vista compatible (at least not for my 64 bit version)

I got this for a present. Not sure I would have purchased it for myself. I don't use the swing speed stuff that much. Never could figure out how to make the best use of it. I know already when I swing too fast! I do use the scoring function often. It does provide some useful info but the PC based part of the process leaves a bunch to be desired. It does not do a good job of presenting information in the way you would find valuable. You have to did around to get at what you want. The transfer mechanism is also a bit erratic. The worst problem is that it eats batteries. I play about 3 times a week and I don't get much more than 6 weeks out of a battery. Considering the written material says 6 months, something is not all it should be.

In summary, a good idea with a lot of very rough edges.
