1. A GPS-based golf distancing system, comprising:

  • a GPS receiver for receiving GPS signals and for determining a current location of the system on a golf course;

    a digital memory for storing a digital map representation of the golf course, the digital map representation defining at least one location;

    a data processor for correlating the current location to the one location to determine distance between the current location and the one location; and

    means for updating the digital memory with a new digital map representation, to compensate for physical movement of the one location, the physical movement being detectable through GPS location accuracy, in the determination of distance.
