I am going to disagree with everyone. Go rangefinder. Bushnell pin-seeker is the only one I have used.
Why:
1.Rangefinders will cost less money. No fees.
2.Rangefinders give you very accurate distance to the Pin. That’s really what you are after. Not distance to the back, front and middle.
3.You can also get distance to hazards, trees, and bunkers with a rangefinder.
4.More accurate yardages. GPS can be questionable, form distance
5.Most importantly, rangefinders give you the most accurate distance inside 100 yards!!! Tweeners are much easier with a rangefinder; GPS is useless with short game help.
I have played with both. Most experienced players have rangefinders, simply for the help with difficult distances, 30, 50, 75 yards.
***I almost forgot…one of the best reasons for a rangefinder over a GPS is getting accurate distances on the range.

What you need to know before buying a golf rangefinder.
Range/coverage
Accuracy
Magnification
Is it tournament approved
Laser or GPS
Do I need to load course before use
Is there a warranty
What brand
What is the rating on amazon
Battery capacity or is it easily replaceable
Weather approve or water resistance
size and weight
All this factor you must consider..
Still having problem deciding which golf rangefinder to buy. See a detailed golf rangefinder comparison chart. The golf rangefinder quick comparison chart would give you a detail information for the top 12 golf rangefinder in the market. All details has been carefully researched. You will not find any detailed comparison chart like this anywhere.

I like the wii. It is cheap and easy to use. My girlfriends little brother has down syndrome and he really likes bowling. Most games are multiplayer and very intuitive. For the more serious gamer, there are games that just cannot be done on PC that work really well on Wii like Metroid Prime Corruption. Wii home brew is a nice way to make the Wii a little more versitile. There are free games availible for download through the homebrew browser. I would go for the Wii,

SkyCaddie - If your golf course isn't listed on SkyCaddie, have your golf pro call them and if he agrees to purchase 5 units for his shop, he will get his course shot for free. This will get your course listed as an official SkyCourse.
