# Best golf GPS watches for women

Many golf watches are built around a large case that sits awkwardly on a slimmer wrist and catches on a sleeve at the top of the backswing. A good pick for women keeps the case near 42 to 43 mm, weighs little enough to forget during a round, and still shows front, middle and back of the green clearly. This guide compares watches from Garmin, Shot Scope, Bushnell and Voice Caddie on what each listing states: case size, weight, screen type and size, battery life in GPS mode and whether any features sit behind a membership. Where a listing gives a boxed or bundle weight rather than the watch alone, we say so, so you can compare like with like before you buy.
