After my purchase, Amazon dropped the price by $4. I sent them an email and they refunded the difference. How many merchants will do that? Many of my golf partners have the SkyCaddie SG-2 and I think that the GolfLogix is obviously the superior product. It uses common AA batteries, although it consumes them quickly. That's not a big problem. I use Energizer rechargeables, and keep an extra set in the bag ready to go. Unlike the SkyCaddie, if the battery goes dead in the middle of a round, all you need to do is pop in a new set and yourback in business by the next hole. All of the courses in my community are covered by GolfLogix, except executive links. On the 1stday of use, a passing rain shower had the SkyCaddie folks scrambling to cover their units. I had no worries with the GolfLogix as it is water resistant. During initial use, I checked the accuracy with every known marker on the course (200, 150 & 100 yards) and the GolfLogix was with 2 yards every time. Perhaps the most incredible part of the information is the distance to hazards. 1dogleg on my home course is protected by trees on the right. GolfLogix gave the distance to the trees. Once you set it for the 1sthole, you don't have to touch it again. The screen is very clear and easy to read. I am far sighted and prefer to wear sun glasses instead of reading glasses on the golf course, but I have no problem reading this gps.
