Why SkyCaddie Will Help Your Course Management and Save You Shots



It’s like SatNav for the golf course, but it’s much easier to use than the one in my car, and it doesn’t have that monotone voiced woman telling me I’ve ‘driven’ in the wrong direction. I love this gadget; it is proving itself to be a really useful course management aid. By giving you targets to aim for and to avoid, it helps you make better decisions off the tee. Using the Driver less often, I have been finding more fairways and greens in regulation, which has got to be a good route to saving shots.

At £299.95 it’s not cheap. After all you could have your choice of drivers for this kind of money. But I would lay a £10 bet that you would save more shots on your next round with SkyCaddie in your hand, than a new driver in your bag! http://www.skygolfgps.com/.

The only potential drawback is that your playing partners will start asking you for distances from around the 2nd hole until the end of the round – Tell them to get their own!

I've got an SG4 and other than the color screen on the SG5, I can't find a good reason to upgrade. Now if you have one of the first models, then the features of the SG5 might be worth forking over the bucks for...I'll stick with my SG4 for now. Best piece of golf gear I've ever purchased.
