Tired of feeling adrift on the course? Turn to the iGolf GPS Caddie II, a handy golf-course aid that automatically calculates the distances to key points on any golf course in the world. The iGolf GPS Caddie II features such construction details as a large, easy-to-read LCD screen and a durable, lightweight housing. Once you step on the course, however, form takes a backseat to function, as the GPS Caddie II displays the distance to the front, center, and back of the green, while also letting users add up to eight custom points per hole. As a result, you can estimate whether you'll carry the water hazard with your 3-wood or whether you should lay up, and you'll have a better idea of when the sand traps come into play. Estimating your club strength is even easier when using the shot distance feature, which shows you how far you hit each club on average.



The GPS Caddie II displays the distance to the front, center, and back of the green.
The GPS Caddie II holds up to 40 courses at once, and you can easily download other courses from iGolf.com when traveling beyond your home turf. It's also easy to map any course or add custom points yourself, should the downloaded info come up short. Best of all, the GPS Caddie II is accurate within 1 to 3 yards, so you don't have to worry whether your 7-iron is really the right club when attacking the pin.

The GPS Caddie II is ready to use out of the box without requiring any additional software or hardware for custom mapping. However, you'll need a computer and Internet access if you'd like to download pre-mapped golf courses from iGolf.com (subscription required). The GPS Caddie II--which comes with a USB cable, software CD, and belt clip--runs for up to 14 hours on two alkaline or rechargeable AA batteries. The unit itself measures 2.18 by 4.62 by 1.31 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 6.3 ounces.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Better than I hoped for
Easy to use.
Easy to down load courses to PC and transfer to Caddy 11.
One course was not in their data base. I asked to have it added,it was added in less than a week.
Copyed the courses to a CD ,also have them on PC hard drive.
Easy to read in bright sun light.
I've used it about ten times ,at two different courses with rechargeable batteries ,the batteries last about 3 18 hole outings.
Great product ,could not be happier.


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Caddie II - Works great, until . . . .
Had the unit 10 wks. with no problem. Usually not more than 1 yd. off against other units or known good markings. Then it developed a drift/jump problem. Usually jumps 10 yds. or more (WAAS on). Numerous emails to support. They had me try WAAS and Stabilizer settings on/off, plus several resets. All no help. Their response - "The issue you are describing has never been reported on a Caddie II and we have thousands of devices out in the market." - which is a lie. You can do a google search or check ...

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Eats Batteries
Works fairly good. Some courses the yardage seems to be off, some OK.
The biggest problem is the it goes through batteries very quickly. I was told to get rechargeable batteries which I did, but I have to turn the unit off between holes to save energy. It makes it hard to use since when you turn it back on you need to scroll back through the holes to get to the one you are playing.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Buy a Sky Caddie
Very poor customer service regarding mapping courses. I've been waiting for 1 month for them to map a course. In another case they told me that a course couild not be mapped. I checked Sky Caddie web site and they have both courses mapped.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - I golf Caddie II
I just sent my iGolf Caddie II back in for exchange. Like many of the 1 star reviews, mine kept droping course data. When I contacted iGolf, they said they were aware of this problem, and since my units warranty had just expired, I could get the $30 subscription which extended the warranty to 1 year. I did this and have sent the unit back in. If you read the reviews, at the time I wrote this, the 5 star reviews are from 2006... all the 2 and 1 star review are from latter 2007 and 2008. When the iGolf ... Read More
