Garmin (NYSE: GRMN) today unveiled Approach® Z10, a compact laser rangefinder that provides precise measurements¹ to the pin of up to 350 yards with six-times magnification.
Weighing less than 7 ounces, the rangefinder is smaller and lighter than most smartphones and offers powerful attributes, including Garmin’s Range Relay feature, which sends ranged distances to a compatible smartwatch, handheld or the Garmin Golf™ smartphone app. Once the target has been locked in, players can see a laser range arc on their paired devices that reveals everything in play as well as distances to the front and back of the green to quickly understand where the pin is located².
“For players that use a Garmin smartwatch or golf handheld on the course, the Approach Z10 can supercharge their devices, making them extremely precise with measurements to the pin, the front and back of the green and everything else in play. We understand the importance of having accurate distances when you’re deciding which club to use and how you approach each shot.”
– Susan Lyman, Garmin Vice President of Consumer Sales and Marketing
