Shot Scope has unveiled its latest on-course device – the H50 Handheld GPS.
Powered by Shot Scope’s patent-pending golf map technology, the H50 delivers fast, accurate yardages and advanced visual course data in an easy-to-use touchscreen device.
Designed to improve club selection and on-course decision making, the H50 provides precise front, middle and back distances along with dynamic plays like yardages that account for elevation changes through a combination of dual-band GPS technology and detailed course mapping.
“The launch of the H50 represents an important milestone in our mission to transform the way golfers visualise each hole,” said David Hunter, CEO of Shot Scope. “By bringing detailed mapping and green contour insights to a large, responsive touchscreen, the H50 helps golfers plan every shot from tee to green with confidence. It’s an exciting development for anyone looking to improve their course management without complexity.”
The H50 comes preloaded with more than 42,000 golf courses worldwide, spanning more than 600,000 mapped holes. Meanwhile, Shot Scope’s in-house team updates more than 8,000 courses annually to maintain accuracy.
The device delivers detailed hole maps, green view with pin placement, green contours and digital elevation maps through a 4.3ins AMOLED touchscreen – offering clarity in all lighting conditions and IPX7 waterproof protection.
At the heart of the H50 is interactive hole mapping – giving golfers a full overview from the tee with multiple viewing modes including satellite imagery, automatic hole zoom, and large-format green distances.
Players can easily identify distances to hazards, layup areas, doglegs and landing zones using the touch-and-drag functionality.
The H50 also includes a built-in digital scorecard and connects to the Shot Scope app, allowing golfers to sync rounds, review scores, and store performance data.
There is also a strong cart magnet for secure mounting, and large high-contrast numbers displayed clearly in portrait and landscape orientations.
Finally, the H50 has a competition mode that disables features such as slope and elevation to ensure compliance with the Rules of Golf.
