Just returned from our latest trip and played golf in Florida for the first time.
We played at Grande Pines on International Drive (opposite the Faldo Institute, just down the road from Sea World). Could not believe our eyes when our buggy was brought around to us - it was equipped with satellite navigation. It showed a full map of each hole and plotted our buggy as we went down the track. It gave us exact yardage from where we were to the pin. That must be the way to play !
Highly recommend this course - they even gave us 6 brand new Calloway balls each for the round ! The round cost approx $50 each (that includes the buggy hire).

The other great benefit of SatNav on the buggy is that the drinks buggy knows exactly where to find you when you order a few cold ones. [msntongue][msntongue]

I'm waiting patiently for the day when someone manages to build SatNav into a golf ball so that I know where to find mine. [msnsad]
