Review By R N Catherwood

As a golf GPS system that assists the golfers at every skill level, the SkyCaddie SG5 boasts of a brilliant track record. With the patented IntelliGreen technology auto-rotating the shape of the green to match the angle of approach, measuring the full depth of the green becomes extremely easy. The SkyCaddie SG5 can calculate the exact distance to the front, back and center of the green, and also of any other point amid. One can find the yardage by simply toggling to the exact pin location. It is also capable of showing the targets and hazards on all of SkyGolf’s 16,000 courses, all professionally mapped.

The SkyCaddie SG5 has a feature to include a ball mark, using which one can trace how far one hits every shot, displaying the hazards as well as the distance required to clear each of these hazards. Each SkyCaddie can display up to 40 targets per hole. The battery life of the SG5 is remarkable.

Another novel attribute, namely Intelligreen Pro, would make available all the contours and tiers on the green, including exact distance to each. It would further provide the depth of each tier by cursor movement upon the contours line of the screen.

The SkyCaddie SG5, the one of the four handheld rangefinders in the SkyCaddie GPS family, has emerged as a GPS device of choice for many a golf-lover due to its features and its ease of use, and is clearly one of the most recommended golf GPS devices that exist today.
