Convert Google Maps meters to yards
The Google Maps "Measure distance" tool is great, and this extension makes it even better. Made especially for golfers that don't rely on meters, you'll now be able to see distances in yards.
Steps to use:
1. Navigate to Google Maps
2. Right click on the map and select "Measure distance"
3. Click another spot on the map. You'll now see a box at the bottom of the screen listing the distance in Feet and Meters
4. Hover your mouse on that box to see the calculation into Yards
5. Check this video for a walkthrough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DhtIXmykSs

- (2023-02-27) Mike Sardee: Awesome! Thanks James. This has bothered me for years. I use it for golf exactly as you described. Now if you could add a feature that would allow me to start from the green out to a lay-up distance, then start over back to the tee box. Right now, I have to clear measurement then start a new distance. I know, not a big deal, but now that you have spoiled me...
