  GolfLogix is Great January 31, 2008 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I just got this unit and today for the first time I used it and was very happy with it. This unit is so darn easy to use, pretty much just turn it on and play golf. I like the way it advances to the next hole without having to do anything to the unit. Yardages to the greens and other reference points seemed to be right on. I loaded my home course o this unit and like the way that is always telling you the yardages. I had a lazer rangfinder before and it was hard to pick a target and I am not good enough to need to know if it is 127 yards 120 to the middle or 135 to the back is fine for me. I was supprized on how much I like this thing.
  Great companion on the course January 21, 2008 25 out of 25 found this review helpful
I purchased the Golflogix instead of the Sky Caddie because of the Garmin brand. Also the yearly fees are more reasonably than Sky caddie and there are many more listed courses. Their customer service for adding and correcting courses that I have played has been excellent. I do wish that more hazards were listed on some courses. I played 5 rounds on the same batteries. Attaches to my Sky mountain pull cart. Downloading courses is a snap. Definetly recommend.
  Not that Great! September 20, 2007 59 out of 74 found this review helpful
I bought this Golflogix GPS to replace my Skycaddie brand. I thiough that it being made by Garmin would provide great accuracy and durability. The latter of which is the issue that I had with the Sky Caddie.
I received the unit in June. It died in 3 days during the second round. They sent another unit and I had to repurchase the membership fee to register but was refunded after a couple of calls.
I took the unit to one course where it tracked the 1st green throughout the round, whereever I was on the course.
Another course displayed the 1st green as 864 yards away from the tee box! The rest of the holes it was "out of range". A real embarrassment as my other partners had the Skycaddies working fine.
Yet another course displayed yardages that were so inaacurate, they were laughable. This unit is not ready for primtime.
Many call to customer service and tech support were worthless. No callback, unimformed tech personell and just general BS. The promised to refund my money and then would simply not respond to my request.
Mac software that was promised in August is still not available. I'm very dissappointed!!!
  Good device that could be better August 30, 2007 37 out of 37 found this review helpful
I got the device last week and played two rounds of golf using it. By and large I am satisfied with the performance. The unit worked as advertised.
Here are some things to be aware of:
1. I was using the cart and there were several times when on reaching the ball I saw a 15 yard difference between what the unit was indicating and what the marking on the course was. I realized that you need to give the unit about 20 seconds after stoppint the cart to give the exact distance. If you walk to the ball, there is no issue..it will provide correct distance always.
2. The unit has two screens per hole. One showing distance to the green and the other showing hazard distances. The second screen does not indicate what hole it is showing distances for..would be a nice and simple enhancement.
3. Battery life is good..I played 2 rounds and the battery indicator barely moved.
4. looks and feels rugged and the belt clip is handy
5. I had an initial question about accessories. I emailed golflogix and got a response within a day.
6. Downloading courses to the device was quick and easy
I bought because of Garmin brand. I have a mobile garmin gps for my car, which i love.
  Works Very Well June 12, 2007 130 out of 131 found this review helpful
I purchased the Golflogix GPS instead of the more popular SkyCaddie because the Golflogix is made by Garmin. Obviously, Garmin knows GPS. The unit is actually a re-packaged Garmin eTrex. It is very solid and sturdy. When I bought it I found that three of the courses that I play were not mapped. I requested them and in one week they were available. Fantastic. I have also submitted questions via email and have been answered promptly. The unit is small and easy to use. It will increment holes automatically when I walk to the next hole. Most of the time I do not need to press any buttons. I would definitely recommend Golflogix.
