Chic and simple SkyCaddie SG 2.5 unit

SkyCaddie has been in the air for years when it comes to efficient handy rangefinders. Golfers are amazed with their palm-fitting units weighing only about 3.8 oz. This raised questions and criticisms obviously. How could a small unit help a golfer win on course?

As global positioning satellites (GPS) extended its arms to the golf industry, the scrupulous athletes have taken advantage of it. The rangefinder slices the golf course precisely informing players the distance and span of the green.

Knowing the greens

One of the popular SkyCaddie unit is the SG 2.5. Not only is it the lightest rangefinder in the market, but it is the most user friendly tool.

SkyCaddie SG 2.5 is scientifically and mechanically designed for golfers who want advanced functionality in a handy device. It provides elite and accurate features that aid the player to achieve his goal in advance.

The secret lies on SkyCaddie's incorporation of human mappings for its golf course data. The thousands of courses stored in every SG 2.5 unit is measured and detailed by actually human beings who actually went to these courses. They manually mapped the features of the holes. This information is passed on for verification that is done three times. Experts say this is the more accurate than the conventional satellite information.

SkyCaddie SG 2.5 is also installed with SkyCaddie's patented IntelliGreen Pro technology. This software aids in determining the full depth and shape of the green from any view point, and both off and on the fairway.

The display is a large grey scale LCD screen that is readable in all lighting conditions. All controls are easy to manipulate. However, this unit does not save or analyze the rounds information compared to other units sold in the market.

Nevertheless, if you're not fond of the flashy features and complicated software, you'll find this unit very suitable for you.
