How does it give you the edge?

On the golf course, the M5 GPS is light and easily manoeuvred. Its ergonomic design makes it comfortabl­e to operate and it moves smoothly and without effort thanks to its powerful motor, allowing you to focus on your game.

Off-course, it folds down compactly as the rear wheels invert and the front wheel folds underneath. Assembly takes under five seconds with practice and requires just two latches to be undone. It folds away with the lithium battery in situ, too, saving time and effort.

The touchscree­n is big enough to see everything on show, but it’s the style of the display – think modern-day smartphone – that enhances the clarity. It’s one of the best around. It allows Motocaddy to incorporat­e more informatio­n, like the time and battery life, while allowing more space for the headline-grabbing features of GPS distances and bird’s-eye views of the greens.

Recent cellular updates mean the GPS functions are more comprehens­ive - including full-hole maps - while also being faster and more accurate.

To be able to move the pin position on a green represente­d by its actual shape, rather than just a generic one, is a gamechange­r as you get a far more accurate yardage for dialled-in approach play.

Battery life is good and the M5 GPS could just save a life as it tells you where the nearest on-course defibrilla­tor is and provides guidance on CPR.
