SkyGolf is a solutions integrator that leverages the convergence of proven technologies, including GPS, Internet, mobile handsets, and proprietary content to provide an instant answer to the oldest question in golf: “How far?” While respecting the game’s traditions and history, SkyGolf is committed to using its advanced technology responsibly to improve pace-of-play, enhance golfers’ enjoyment of the game and ultimately increase participation for the good of the game.
The SkyCaddie, developed by SkyGolf, is used on over 14,000 golf courses in 45 countries around the world. Weighing less than 5 ounces, the SkyCaddie utilizes the same global positioning system used by the U.S. military, but in a high portable handheld device, about the size of a cell phone, to compute distances to any point on a golf course. SkyGolf uses professional, high-performance GPS engines, satellite-based accuracy augmentation, plus proprietary accuracy enhancements to provide golfers with the distances needed to play smarter, faster and have more fun.
The proven reliability and accuracy of the SkyCaddie handheld, combined with the precision of SkyGolf’s vast course library, gives golfers the trust and confidence they need to play their best golf.
SkyCaddie SG2.5 is great!
This product is very handy for any golfer. It was very simple to set up and is very easy to use. The SkyCaddie has taken 3-4 strokes off of the average score for both my husband and I.
SkyCaddie SG2.5 product review
It does what is advertised. The most confusing part of using the product is finding the distance of your last shot. Battery power is limited to about 2 rounds without a charge.

I don’t golf but…
I don’t golf, but I still find this quite useful. The expected Victorinox quality and functionality without the clunkiness of a standard Swiss Army knife.
Great gift
I gave this item as a gift to a golfer. He liked it very much.

I can finally keep a real score golfing
I’m so excited to use this product. I always forget how many strokes I have once I make it to the green. And I’m such a bad golfer, it takes many strokes to get to the green. I played with it when I received and it is very easy to use and the display shows up well. I’m very anxious to get out there and play some golf so I can use my new tool. I also bought one for my step-father for Christmas and I think he’ll be very pleased with this gift.
Keeps score, but too easy to reset
It does what it advertises. however, it is very easy to accidentally bump the thing and reset your score. There is no way to go back and fix mistakes, so this makes it useless unless you treat it very gingerly. In addition, the key chain attachment broke after two uses
Swingyde Golf Swing Training Aid

Swingyde
This little plastic piece is very helpful. I have been hitting better shots that are straighter & sometimes i suprise myself with a draw. I think that it’s worth the investment if you are serious about playing better golf.
Outstanding Product!
This is the first review I have ever given a golf product. My swing was slowly self destructing this year. I developed a fade that was getting worse and worse. After realizing that it was not the clubs, I tried a couple different training aids. Finally, I saw the reviews on the swingyde. I ordered it and tried it. At first, it was not correcting my swing and then I realized that I was not following the directions.
After watching the DVD and reading the instructions again, I finally figured out what I was doing wrong. Shortly after, I was swinging perfectly.
In a nutshell, this device puts you in a great position on the takeaway and then also puts you in a perfect position at the finish. For those of us who have trouble “releasing the club”, this is the answer. After 20 minutes, my muscles started memorizing the swing path. I have now been using it daily for 20 minutes a night inside (which is very relaxing after the kids go to bed). This swingyde is the real deal and I am telling my family and friends about it.
I had a question and emailed the creator of the swingyde in Australia and he emailed me back the same day. He is a great guy and very helpful. I can’t recommend it enough!

Great!
Very good quality materials, very sturdy. Extremely pleased! My husband moved the clubs inside so he could look at them during the winter months!
Club covers good deal
These are the second set I’ve purchased for my husband. They are very well made (I can’t remember when I got the last ones) and protect the clubs nicely.

Skycaddie Leather Cover
The product is just what I expected so very satisfied. Dealing thru Amazon was excellent. ONLY negative was the cost of the product. Over $30 dollars for a tiny leather cover is ridiculous.
Definitely improves my game!
I’ve played with my SG2 for a few rounds and since then my best round dropped from a 95 to an 87 – twice in a row. It’s given me more confidence in my shots and has made the game a lot more fun – no more hunting for markers or sprinkler heads!
The first time I used it, I didn’t give it time to orient itself and it didn’t work at all. My bad.
Since then, I give it 10 minutes on my golf bag before a round to get oriented and it’s ready to go. It has worked perfectly. I purchased it because of the intelligreen feature and this has been worth every penny! Being able to target specific areas of the green and knowing its shape has saved me many strokes and is a real confidence booster when you’re shooting over hazards. The extra information is a lot more useful than just front, center, and back of the green, and it’s extra cool how the distance can be updated by moving the cursor to the exact point on the green you want to hit.
The four star courses are extremely well-mapped with and it’s easy to update the courses on the unit via the USB interface. I live in the San Diego area and all the courses I play around here have been mapped. It would be nice if it held more than 10 courses but that’s just being greedy.
And for you Mac-heads like me, their software works great with my new iMac, no problems at all.
If you like to golf and you have all the right clubs, this should be your next investment. It’s not cheap but it’s less than the price of a good hybrid. (And you”ll always be the most popular golfer in your foursome!)

GustBuster Classic 48-Inch Automatic Golf Umbrella

Quality Umbrella
A good price for a well-made stylish umbrella. I’d consider a bigger version for golfing or to cover more than one person.
Sturdy, reliable umbrella
After using and throwing away too many “cheapo” umbrellas, I finally reviewed umbrellas. The Gust Buster promised to withstand high wind gusts, patented design to allow wind escape and not turn inside out, and seemed fair price for value. Bought from Amazon, received two days later. The umbrella received had a small manufacturing flaw. Found the manufacturer’s customer service phone number. No long-winding numbers and menus, but instant live U.S. help. I explained what was wrong and they immediately offered to send out replacement, which I received next day.
I have been totally satisfied with the quality of the umbrella. It lives up to its billing; would also make a great present. I like the sturdy wooden handle as well. Makes a great walking-stick. Above average customer service. Would recommend doing an online price comparison before buying as this umbrella is sold at many golf shops for a much higher price. I would whole-heartedly recommend it to anyone who is tired of flimsy, pocket-size products.
