Amazing

I bought the Yardage Pro as a replacement for an iGolf Triton that was stolen. I decided to upgrade to the color version and I'm so happy that I did. The added storage (100 courses vs 10) and the hole map are great additions. Also, I don't have to delete then reload a course to play it again just to reset the score features as with the Triton/XG. Also, I don't have to search for the course I'm playing because it automatically calls up the correct course based on location when it's turned on. Just an amazing unit.

Bushnell Yardage Pro XGC

Purchased the unit before christmas, have windows xp and had no problems with the sofware installation. Display is easy to read, even in sunlight. Unit appears to be very accurate, I have yet to check it against my son's laser, but will update when I do. Custom points are easy to add and love the mapped courses that you can measure any point. My only disapointment has come from Igolf. The one course I bought it for is not available, the techs at Igolf keep giving me excuses that the data is not available, even though the course next to it is mapped, and the courses are not 100 yards apart. At certain times of the year, they play an 18 hole tournament that uses both courses, they are so close together and are only nine holes each. They do keep giving my mapping credit back, but one of the reasons I bought the unit was to use it at Malden Country Club. Otherwise, the unit is easy to use, shot measuring is easy, battery life is like it says, about four rounds of golf.

Improve your game -n get a Bushnell XGC

Bushnell XGC was a gift for my son. He uses it constantly; easily can add any courses. Very accurate and small. Great product!

I didn't want to spend more so maybe I should just shut up

I just received the device today and obviously I was excited to get started on it. The installation experience of the software was horrible. I don't think the software that came with the CD is compatible with Windows 7 yet, the installation always gets stuck at 99%. The Bushnell site had a zip file of the software that says it is compatible with Windows 7 but that didn't work either. I had to move to my other computer which still had Windows Vista to be able to get the software installed. The software is simple but not intuitive. It relies on igolf gps mapping and I dislike how they name the golf courses. I also feel I wasted credits (you get 100 credits for $35/yr) by downloading golf courses twice because they named them (example) Griffith Park course 1 and Griffith Park course 2 but when you look at course 1 download it says 36 holes already the same with course 2.

I will update my review after I played with it this weekend.

Finally able to take it out for a round. The device is accurate. I was using the scoring feature and after I enter my score for each hole, it automatically changes my map for the next hole. It's awesome that it keeps statistics of your game like number of putts, number of pars, bogeys, double bogeys etc. but as soon as you turn it off all that information is gone. It would've been nice if it had a score keeping feature that I could download to my computer for analysis later on.

The device is small enough to fit in your pocket and not be bothered knowing it's there.

Pointing to a custom point on the map is not that great because you can only move the target by up down and sideways and it moves by a fixed scale. I was actually disappointed with it. But all in all it does what it advertises.
