I have been toying around with the idea of getting one of the shot tracking products that are currently on the market. Wasnt interested in the original Game Golf as wasnt a big fan of having to mess with the "tapping".
The Arccos is a solid option, most of the gripes from people come from the phone in pocket debate, as well as the battery drain on the phone.
Well it appears good news is on the horizon, Game Golf is releasing "Game Golf Pro" which will not require any "tapping" or require the use of a phone in your pocket (allthough you can use it for the Caddie option, it doesnt have to be in your pocket)

Depending on price, seems like it could make a splash (EDIT, looks like according to Golf Digest it will be $300 and available in April). Need to see how the "puck" is used and where it needs to be to pick up shots.
NEW GAME GOLF “PRO” OFFERS UNPRECEDENTED SHOT TRACKING FOR GOLFERS
Taking advantage of the industry’s most advanced shot-tracking technology is this easy: arrive at the tee, turn on GAME GOLF PRO and play. Unlike earlier iterations, there’s no need to tap the GAME GOLF tags on your clubs to the hip device. All you have to do is play golf—and every shot, distance, and club used is automatically tracked.
Incorporating automotive-grade sensors used by cutting edge motor companies such as Tesla, GAME GOLF PRO is so smart that it can differentiate real shots from practice swings. GAME GOLF PRO also doesn’t miss any shots and you don’t need to have your phone in your pocket, unlike competing systems. In fact, GAME GOLF PRO has its own battery and GPS included so you can leave your phone at home saving you data and battery life, if you choose.
GAME GOLF has remained the market leader in GPS-shot tracking through its relentless devotion to innovation, and by partnering with the PGA of America and leading technological component manufacturers such as NXP Semiconductors.
In designing GAME GOLF PRO, data was analyzed from over two million rounds played by members of the GAME GOLF community across 137 countries. Additionally, PGA of America and touring professionals provided valuable feedback from their experience with GAME GOLF, that has helped in the development of this product.
“We are proud to launch GAME GOLF PRO which fulfills our vision to enhance the golfer's on-course experience in a way that's easy and convenient, using the best real-time shot-tracking capabilities available today,” said John McGuire, CEO and
founder of GAME GOLF. “Even though we created the GPS stat-tracking category and remain the market leader, we have been dedicated to streamlining the GAME GOLF experience so that golfers no longer have to tap their club on the GAME GOLF hip device. Now, you can just play golf, and GAME GOLF PRO accurately provides golfers with the best tracked data in the game today.
“Incorporating the latest technology from NXP Semiconductors, used in the autonomous motor industry by top car brands like Tesla, GAME GOLF PRO delivers reliable and accurate shot detection that is beyond the scope of competing systems.” McGuire added.
NEW SMART CADDIE HELPS YOU MAKE DATA-DRIVEN DECISIONS
For those golfers who want to use their phones, GAME GOLF PRO has a rangefinder and the newly developed Smart Caddie feature.
Coming to market in 2018, GAME GOLF Smart Caddie helps golfers make data-driven decisions by recommending clubs and hole strategy based on your previously tracked performance. Competing systems give you a recommendation for how to play a hole. Smart Caddie takes it one step further, providing you with recommendations for every shot you face on a hole with no manual entry required.
With Smart Caddie, it’s like having your own personal caddie who considers every shot you’ve ever hit, and has identified all of your tendencies and understands the course. Smart Caddie can even calculate the effect of weather and elevation in making its recommendations.
“GAME GOLF is the ultimate tool in providing golfers with personal data that allows them to match their game to the challenges the course is presenting,” McGuire said.
COACHING DASHBOARD SPEEDS IMPROVEMENT PROCESS
Designed with the input of PGA of America Golf Professionals, the new GAME GOLF Coaching Dashboard not only allows you to accurately determine the parts of your game that need improvement, but it also makes it easy to share your data with your PGA Professional.
“The Coaching Dashboard allows players and coaches to speed the improvement process by tracking a player’s strengths, weaknesses and tendencies on one page. It also allows the PGA Professional to build lesson plans based on a player’s on-course performance analytics rather than having to rely solely on analyzing a golfer’s swing,” McGuire said.
With GAME GOLF, friends, parents and your PGA Professional miles away can stay informed as soon as you walk off the 18th green. Once your round is completed, your selected network will receive an email notification with a complete round analysis. This allows your PGA Professional to provide timely feedback that can help you make adjustments that lead to better golf.
