Motorola has announced a new Golf Edition of their MOTOACTV smart watch. The device, as you?d imagine, includes new software-based tools which will enhance your 18 holes experience. GPS tracking allows you to record where you?ve taken your shots from in each round of golf, and will also tell you approximately how far you are from several areas on the green.
You can use the app or visit the site later on to check out how you did and compare your play to the pros. Available April 1st, the device will cost $300. Those with the original edition aren?t SOL, however, as Motorola has committed to bringing an upgrade to bring these very same features.
