if you do it locks up and you have to reset the entire unit (Loosing all the golf courses you had saved to the unit). When you call the company they are not much help (felt like they just gave me the blow off). I got about 1 year of use out of this. Needless to say the unit (without the clip) is subkect to a lot of vibration if you ride with it in the cup holder in the cart.
After buying this device you have to pay a membership which entitles you to a specific # fo courses- Many of which are not available. I bought this back in 2008. This is not good when you have a tournament to go to and POOF the unit locks up. I think this was a quick easy way for company to make money. Now for the kicker.
Be ready to buy tons of batteries. Buy a bertter branded product. Many of the courses are not covered. This thing hates vibration as with any electronic device. the device has a small cheap clip on the back whch is not very reliable at holding the device on your golf bag or belt (mine broke).
The Caddie II goes through batteries very quickly and you cannot use rechargeable batteries. My unit no longer works. It will save you money and time.
I bought this for $175 and paid $30 for the annual membership. I downloaded 101 courses, all that I could think of that I might play. Pros:-Cost-Ease of use-8 Custom points per hole (lay up, carry distances, etc).-No need to pay membership every year-Very responsive customer service-40 courses stored on device.-Can share courses with othersCons: -No rechargeable batteries (make sure you have spare batteries in your bag at all times)-Slow upload/downloads of coursesOverall, I am very happy with this device. Many friends have the Sky Caddie and I am still very glad I purchased this device.
One of the better GPS units for golf that is not hyped up with graphics. This system provides accurate shot making data.
I purchased this item and wont play golf without it now. This gives me just what I need. If you spend a lot of time looking for yardage markers or guessing, this is the product for you. You can spend a whole lot more on other devices that do everything except hit your ball but why. Accurate yardage to the front center and rear of the green. Great deal for the money.
No exceptions. I purchased an iGolf product that failed in the first year. I'm now stuck with over $450 worth of useless product. I replaced it at my expense and the 2nd one failed as well. Called cust serv and was told that there is no return or repair policy. Buyer beware. They are the worst in the industry.
