GPS Golf Guru Guru 4 - Your Search Is Over!

By Darren Zahradnik

For players who love the GPS Golf Guru the new GURU 4 is a worthwhile upgrade to consider. The Guru 4 upgrade will build upon the strong customer foundation of the GPS Golf Guru. It offers functions not accessible in other golfing gadgets or previous models of the GPS GOLF Guru.

GPS Golf Guru's customer service reputation is well known in the industry for speed of response and effective problem solving. It's been an important factor in the popularity of the company. Customers will be glad to hear that the Guru 4 will continue this tradition.

The most innovative aspect of the GURU 4 is actually unrelated to golf play. It is the first of its kind to offer entertainment and data functions which aren't related to golf. For example, no other GPS golf device allows its users to store music. When playing, users can multi-task with the GURU 4 rather than carrying an additional music player.

Yet another never before seen feature is the included movie player. Some golfers have the habit of carrying a portable device to watch films while waiting; now they can do so on their golf GPS unit. The Guru 4 also features the availability of photo storage and viewing functions.

Like the GPS Golf Guru before it, the GURU 4 stores your statistical data if activated. Players can record shot distances, type of club, and the result of each swing. They can then use this data to further evaluate and improve their own play.

The GURU 4, like the version that preceded it, offers other features for player improvement. In addition to those features offered by the GPS Golf Guru previously, the GURU 4 gives golfers several new advantageous functions.

Unlimited downloads of standard course maps are included free of charge with this update. Also, additional aerial view maps are available. The aerial view maps, known as AerVu, give players a full-color bird's eye view of the course they are playing.

The GPS receiver is one feature which has undergone considerable improvement. The GURU 4 has a 20-channel receiver installed. Its sensitivity has been improved, allowing for better functionality in areas that have weak reception.

Not only has the reception technology been enhanced, the new receiver has increased speed of acquisition. Combined with the sensitivity of the receiver, this means that players no longer must cope with the frustration of long acquisition times, or weak signals.

The GURU 4 is slightly larger than many other golf GPS devises, but it also boasts one of the largest displays available, in full color. GPS Golf Guru's customer service excellence, innovation, and quality products are already well-known. While the GURU 4 offers a variety of specifications previously not included in a golf-oriented GPS device, it remains to be seen whether consumers are willing to pay more for multiple functions that aren't related to their golf game.

This crucial question, however, remains: Will golfers really be willing to spend a greater amount for a unit with access to features unrelated to improving their golf game? If, in fact, they are, the Guru 4 will be on every player's wish list. If players choose fewer functions and lower price, however, this company may be in for a surprise.
