 Terry Cassidy July 13, 2008
This product is complete garbage. I received one for Fathers Day, it rarely locks onto satellite effectively or quickly enough to use, the clip on the back is cheap plastic and I have already been through two (3 rounds of golf). It was a complete mistake to not get the range finder I wanted.
 Rarely Locks Onto a Position Before I Am Ready to Hit the Ball July 3, 2008
I have had my SG 4 for over a year now and have played numerous rounds of golf with it with almost the same results. It very rarely is able to lock onto my position before I am ready to hit the ball, whether I am walking or riding in a cart. The courses that I play are fairly open with few trees. I have attached the SkyCaddie to my cart and have worn it on my belt. It doesn't seem to make any difference in its ability to give me yardage. I am very disappointed in the ability of the device to do what it is advertised to do.
Poor product terrible quality and customer service June 30, 2008
Don't buy SkyCaddie or other SkyGolf Product!
I am on a quest to warn people about SkyGolf / SkyCaddie. I bought an SG4 mainly because of the SD RAM expansion slot which I have several adds saved where it is promised that this slot allows you to save more courses; LIE, the slot does nothing, never did.I have called SkyCaddie about this many times and have been promised a solution over and over. At this point it is too late, there are way too many better technologies on the market. On top of it all I had a terrible time finding and maintaining satellite connections.
uPro is the unit I like best and, after I purchased it, I sent them an e-mail support question and they got back with me within 24 hours - ON A SUNDAY! I waited for weeks and never received promised call-backs from SkyGolf. Their customer support is a joke; I suspect that their business model will not be sustainable since they will soon not be able to charge people $30.00 a year. I believe that this puts SkyGolf at risk of going out of business as their business model requires that people continue to be willing to pay this outrageous fee.
I have never used the GolfBuddy, but plan to buy one soon for traveling as it has 20,000 courses pre-loaed. There are others, such as iGolf, which are far less expensive than the SkyCaddie.
I think that SkyGolf thought that their IntelliGreen patents would give them a sustainable advantage; fortunately uPro has blown that technology out of the water. In short, SkyGolf was early, but is not the technology leader , pricing leader or customer service leader (in fact I have rarely, if ever, dealt with a company with worse customer service).
BTW, if anyone wants a used SG4 for Cheap, I got one that will be selling used
Very poor gps June 14, 2008
I dont think I have ever wasted more money in my life than on this product. Reception is extremely poor even after continually resetting the unit and sending it to skygolf for a repair. Yardages are as much as 15 yards off and fluctuate when I am standing still. Its am embarassment everytime a golfer asks me for a yardage and have to say I have no reception (on a cloudless day). The only reason I even try to play with it at this point is to spread the word about what a bad product this is
 charger June 14, 2008
The charger hook up on the back is hard to insert. Overall it works well
