1. A hole location updating device including a hole cutter combiner providing a combination to a hole cutter, comprising:
a GPS circuit for detecting a global positioning system (GPS) position on the hole location updating device;
a mobile communication circuit for providing an access to a server through a mobile communication network; and
a control circuit for transmitting the GPS position to the server by use of the mobile communication circuit in response to a wakeup signal,
wherein the control circuit compares map information including position information on a golf course and the GPS position, and determines whether the hole location updating device is disposed in a green of the golf course, and
wherein the control circuit sets a data update period of the GPS circuit to be a first period when the hole location updating device is not disposed in the green of the golf course, and sets the data update period of the GPS circuit to be a second period that is different from the first period when the hole location updating device is disposed in the green of the golf course.
