Sports reviews of Golf Buddy Pro GPS Range Finder
Customer Review: 20,000 course capacity, auto course & hole recognition
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I did a lot of research on all the golf GPS units on the market and chose the GolfBuddy Pro because of its huge 20,000 course capacity, automatic course and hole recognition, ease of use, reasonable price, and lack of a subscription fee. They currently have about 12,000 courses mapped in the U.S. and another 4,000 outside the U.S. They don't have as many courses mapped as SkyCaddie or iGolf, but I've noticed they have been adding courses quickly. Most of the courses I had been looking for were already mapped and most of the ones that weren't were added within 3 wks. The GolfBuddy takes about 2 minutes to lock onto the satellites and 1-2 minutes to bring up the course and hole automatically. I turn it on when I approach the clubhouse and it's ready to go on the first hole. Once I discovered that it takes about 5 seconds for the distance to stabilize after you stop walking, the unit's accuracy has been quite good. I tested the accuracy against the 150 yd marker on 8 holes and found it to be within 3 yds on 6 of those holes and within 5 yds on all 8. Most holes already have all the important targets mapped, but it's easy to add your own targets if needed (e.g. distance to doglegs). I love the shot distance feature, which requires the push of just one button. It's really useful to know how far I hit each club.
