Summary: Disappointed
Comment: When I first bought this product, it worked very well. Then I went to the site for updates and that is when things went down hill. I spend 18 holes on a regular basis searching for a damn sattelite. They sent me a new gps, I installed it and loaded the courses, still searching for a sattelite. One of the tech's had the nerve to suggest I cut it on and leave it outside all night! You gotta be kiddin' me. When it's working it is cool, but when it's bad, it's worse. I truly wish I could get my money back, because this is disappointing. I live in Jersey City, NJ and you suggest I leave it outside all night? ROFL, it aint even funny!

Summary: disappointing purchase
Comment: Unfortunately, the golflogix I purchased was inoperable and I had to have the Garmin company send a new one and return the other one. We were not able to use the golflogix for a father's day golf tournament.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Incredibly Accurate
Comment: I've used the GolfLogix now for 4 rounds at 4 different courses. I'm finding that it is quite accurate in the yardage but even more importantly, it shows how far I have to hit it to get over the water, bunker, hazard, etc. Switching to one more/less club can make a huge difference in your score on one hole. I recommend the extra few dollars for a year's access to download courses to the device.

Summary: Restock Special
Comment: This item was clearly a restocked item. The packaging was not factory packaging and the cables had been hastily rewound and not tied. Batteries were loose inside a zip-lock bag. Never got to use the item. I was never able to get the included software to recognize the unit. That is probably why it was sent back the first time.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great Value
Comment: I've had the Golflogix for about a month now. I play mostly public courses that do not have on cart GPS systems. As such the Golflogix GPS has been invaluable for both myself and my playing partner. I find it accurate, easy to use and easy to load. My only complaint is that it eats batteries. Expect to get maybe 3 or 4 rounds of golf from a fresh set of Duracells. I carry an extra pair in my golf bag. Buy it you'll love it.
