Sky-Caddie: Is Golf GPS Good???

Hey Guys,

I was out on the course this weekend as trying to figure out distance for my shots and started wondering...Would GPS help me out here?

I played once with a GPS built into the cart. That was amazing...whereever the cart went, it told me

-How far to the green
-How far the bunkers
-Estimated finish time.

So, let me ask...are the portable ones just as good? Are they worth the money? Does the "SkyCaddie" have all the courses available?

I wouldn't want to buy one and then find out the courses I play the most aren't available.

Thanks in advance.

great product. highly recommended especially if it is your first time playing a course. it will speed up pace of play and definitely cut a few strokes down.

very easy. you can load up to 10 courses at a time from the sky caddie website. you can also check what it is to clear the hazard, fairway bunker or whatever is in your path. too many USEFUL features to mention.
