Amazon.com Product Description Designed for golfers who want advanced capability in a sleek, ultra-light design, the water-resistant SkyCaddie SG2.5 Golf GPS is 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. The SkyCaddie SG2.5 provides easy-to-use, one-handed operation, water resistance for play in all weather conditions, and a brilliant, outdoor-readable display with automatic backlight. Other features include user-selectable display themes, drop-in lithium-rechargeable battery, and up to 14 hours of continuous usage on a full charge. 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.

What's in the Box? SkyCaddie SG2.5, AC charger, USB cable, belt clip, user guide Frequently Asked Questions: Q: Can the SG2.5 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.

The proven reliability and accuracy of the SkyCaddie handheld, combined with the precision of SkyGolf's vast course library, gives golfers the trust and confidence they need to play their best golf.

My Gift December 31, 2009 G. W. Casebeer 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Love the item, disappointed that the instructions were not in the box but have to be found on line and downloaded. The instrument is first class.
Sky Caddie SG2.5 December 27, 2009 Robert A. Duggan (Narragansett, RI) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Well, I received this as a Christmas gift and I read all the negative reviews and have to say on initial startup, I couldn't disagree more. With much trepidation, I found the installation and startup very easy and flawless! I installed on my PC and laptop with ease. Unfortunately, there is snow on the ground and I can't try it on the course. Perhaps the software has improved, but so far I am pleasantly surprised. Yearly cost is a little disturbing, but if it works, to me it's worth the expense as I play many different courses, especially when on vacation. I used the SG3 earlier in year and loved it, hopefully this performs as well.

Customer service not home. November 29, 2009 E. P. Broom 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have had a Sky Caddy for three years and use it in AZ & MN. When the unit operates, it is great. When you have a problem and must speak with a technician, be prepared to ask several times for assistance. Customer service is not a strong point with this organization.
Doesn't Work With Snow Leopard November 24, 2009 Sam Martin 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I upgraded my MacBook with Snow Leopard. Now I can't sync the caddie and so I can't access courses or upgrade software. SkyCaddie Support says they do not have a fix and are "working on it." After 3 months, there is still no fix. Along with the annual fees and the course lockout if you don't renew, I'd say buy something else, particularly if you use a Mac with Snow Leopard.
Caddie review October 26, 2009 Diane Dugger (Kansas City) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
The Sky Caddie arrived in the correct time frame. My husband loved it but hasn't had a chance to use it yet. I would definitely use this provider again.
