Product Description

The SG3.5 is part of the SkyCaddie family of products offering a large color LCD at a great value.

Amazon.com

The SkyCaddie SG3.5 gives you an eagle's eye view of the hole to provide critical distances you need to play confidently and shoot lower scores. All the information you need is presented clearly on a brilliant color display, powered by three AAA batteries, and users who join the member community can access up to 30,000 course maps with advanced features like proprietary IntelliGreen, IntelliGreen Pro (Beta), QuickVue, HoleVue (Beta), and real-time distances to hazards, carries, and layups.

Key Features



  • IntelliGreen: SkyGolf's patented IntelliGreen technology provides you with an eagle's view of each green from anywhere on the golf course. The graphic rotates to provide front carry, back yardages, and green depth from your approach angle.
  • IntelliGreen Pro (Beta): IntelliGreen Pro (Beta) is a dynamically enhanced version of IntelliGreen that adds the ability to display major tiers, contours, false fronts, and mounds from your angle of approach to the green. With IntelliGreen Pro, you'll always know what's ahead, no matter where you are on the hole, even when you can't see the green.
  • SkyCaddie QuickVue, powered by TrueGround Mapping: SkyCaddie's exclusive QuickVue provides a virtual preview of the safest path from the tee to green. At a single glance, golfers know the exact green shape with IntelliGreen, the total distance from tee to the green, the shape of the golf hole, the distance and direction to the perfect fairway position, and the distance remaining from that position for the approach shot to the green.
  • Digital Scorecard: Keep track of your round with the SkyCaddie Digital Scorecard. Just enter your handicap into the preferences and pars for your handicap are automatically highlighted on the digital scorecard. Set up the MyPar screen and the SkyCaddie's Digital Scorecard adjusts to your handicap.
  • Mark Your Ball: How far did you hit that drive? 5-iron, 9-iron or wedge? The SkyCaddie can tell you with a simple touch of a button. Knowing how far you hit with every club in your bag will speed up club selection and let you manage your game better.
  • Instant Distances to Greens and Hazards: With the SkyCaddie, you receive instant yardages to critical targets as you move down the fairway. Hazards behind you are automatically removed from the display, while those between you and the green are shown, providing hands-free operation. Knowing the distance needed to clear a hazard or bunker allows you to manage your game.
  • Up to 40 targets per hole: In combination with high-quality professional course maps, available with an annual membership plan, the SkyCaddie can display up to 40 targets per hole. These ground-mapped SkyCourses include distances to hazards, fairway targets, and layups that would not be visible with a laser or from satellite maps.



The SG3.5 has a slim, streamlined profile.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice color screen and alot cheaper!, September 15, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Sky Caddie SG3.5V GPS Unit (Sports)
I did alot of research on these before I finally purchased one. You don't need to spend alot of money on one. This model is perfect. You get the same color screen as SG5 maybe just a little smaller. The only difference to me is that you have to use batteries. Which could be easier sometimes. Considering that sometimes you could forget to re-charge your battery like on other models that dont take regular batteries. The reviews on here that say the batteries don't last long are kinda B.S. because I played about 3-4 rounds before I had to change them out, and that was the cheapo batteries that come with it when you open the box. I'd imagine that some Energizers or Duracell would last maybe even longer. I'm very happy with my purchase. Glad I didn't spend alot on one of the expensive SGX or SG5. Especially considering it costs $30 a year just to download courses from your state, and even more a year if you want to download courses nationwide. I recommend buying the carrying case for it...

2.0 out of 5 stars Needs Service Plan, January 15, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Sky Caddie SG3.5V GPS Unit (Sports)
Be aware-no where do they warn you you need a yearly sevice plan in order to get any Golf course info to download. Beating that - if you do not renew the next year - they wipe out all the info you previously downloaded on your device. Very unhappy that isn't clearly noted upfront.
