Simple, essential and just the facts…
The Garmin GolfLogix doesn’t give you sophisticated CGI fly-over views of the fairways and greens you have to analyze for ten minutes before taking your shot.

Horrible Customer Support
Trying to register my GolfLogix (which I bought from Amazon.com) to activate my account so far has been a nightmare.

I purchased the Golflogix GPS instead of the more popular SkyCaddie because the Golflogix is made by Garmin. Obviously, Garmin knows GPS. The unit is actually a re-packaged Garmin eTrex. It is very solid and sturdy. When I bought it I found that three of the courses that I play were not mapped. I requested them and in one week they were available. Fantastic. I have also submitted questions via email and have been answered promptly. The unit is small and easy to use. It will increment holes automatically when I walk to the next hole. Most of the time I do not need to press any buttons. I would definitely recommend Golflogix.

I had one of the early models made by SkyCaddie, and this device is far superior. It’s easier to use, holds 20 downloaded courses (as opposed to 10), finds the course you are at (as opposed to scrolling through a list), is waterproof (as opposed to water resistant), cost far less to get a one year membership to downloadable courses, and turns on in seconds with distances (as opposed to minutes). The 2008 model measures the distance from your last shot so you can tell how far you are hitting each club.
It’s very easy to use. Just turn it on. I had no trouble downloading the courses, and I am a Mac user with the Mac Leopard operating system. The Garmin algorithn for finding distances is quick and accurate.
I really like it and can’t imaging playing golf without it!

Horrible customer service
I purchased this item two weeks ago. Along with a friend who is more computer savvy than me, we were unable to get it to download any of the courses.

Everything About This GPS Is Easy
Talk about an easy to use product. I have used sky caddies, and bushnell range finders and nothing compares to the ease and accuracy of this device.

All I need
The GolfLogix product has served me very well for a month now. I find battery life to be acceptable (4-6 rounds on rechargeable batteries), and I carry a spare set on AA’s in my…

Very Pleased
For the ones thinking of getting a gps for golf, I really do like this one. It is easy and simple to use. Easy to see outside in the sunlight and understand.

I have used this item for several rounds of golf. It is very easy to use. Seems much easier to work than the Skycaddie. They both will give you the same information but this one is easier to read and operate. The customer service at Golflogix is tops also.

I like to see a class action suit against this company!
I totally agree with the other posts that their customer service is the WORST!!
I purchased mine in April ‘08 & the locking problem started in September.

Poor (nonexistent) customer service
The GPS itself is fine once you get it working — but that’s the trick. The cord for connecting it to the computer is difficult to seat properly, for one thing.
