Amazon.com Product Description:
Ideal for golfers who want top-of-the-line GPS assistance on the links, the SkyCaddie SG5 Golf GPS is integrated with the very best Swiss engineering to provide unmatched reliability. It features, a large color display with automatic backlighting to ensure easy readability indoors and outdoors, and a long-lasting rechargeable battery (with up to 14 hours of continuous use). It's also equipped with the patented IntelliGreen technology, enabling golfers to measure the full depth and shape of the green from any angle of approach, both on or off the fairway. Part of SkyCaddie's exclusive, professional 4-Star SkyCourses, IntelliGreen graphics provide an eagle's eye view of the green with an indicator representing a direct line-of-play from wherever you are on the course.
With an annual SkyPlayer Club Membership Plan (not included with purchase of device), you can easily download thousands of our professionally enabled SkyCourses. Three different levels of memberships are available, based on how many courses you want to store and play. If you do not want a membership and your course is not already available, you can record the front, center and back of each green with your SkyCaddie's quick set-up module, which takes about 10 seconds.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Can the SG5 give me the distance to the pin?
A: The SkyCaddie, using the IntelliGreen graphics found on our professionally recorded SkyCourses, provides more information than just the distance to the pin. Once the line of play is selected on the graphical green outline, it provides the minimum carry to get on the green, the maximum limit you have to the back of the green, plus you can adjust to obtain the third distance of the approximate flag location. All three distances are provided simultaneously from any direction as you approach the green. You can then frame your shot in a much larger target area and select the best club. You will hit more greens and have shorter putts than a single number can provide.

- Technology That Helps Every HandicapThis product surpasses every expectation I had.
Skycaddie speeds up your game as you don't have to spend time searching for the yardage markers. If you like to walk like I do, SkyCaddie saves you even more time if you happen to miss the fairway to the opposite side of the cart paths where the yardage markers are painted.
Where SkyCaddie realy shines is when you stray way off target. When your drive is in the other fairway, SkyCaddie tells you what you really need to know: ... Read More

- Sky Caddie SG5I am happy to report that the Sky Caddie SG5 performed flawlessly right out of the box. Downloads are easy.
For players like myself, who belong to county golf associations that play many local courses, I would recommend that future models support more than ten courses at one time on the device. Twenty or twenty-five would be a nice number. Memory is cheap now, so there should be no technical reason for the old limit of ten courses.

- Sky Caddie SG5This is the best thing in golf since round balls.
It will cut your score (no lie)and I'm the world's
worst golfer. It makes the game fun, fast and its
easy to use. Thank you Sky Caddie. We're taking you
on vacation tomorrow for a week and can't wait.

- SkyCaddie SG5This is a wonderful item (Sky Caddie SG5) to help in choosing your club selection for hitting shots from 150 yards into the greens. This product is also very easy to use - it was a little confusing setting up an account with Sky Golf on the computer the first time, but after that it has been easy to add and delete courses from the unit.

- Love the iGreen buttonI can't play golf without my SkyCaddie. The iGreen button is really cool. You can move the center green target to any point on the green. I have all the numbers I need to hit more greens and avoid bunkers! Anyone struggling with their short game needs this feature.
