| Distance to the front, center, and back and shot distance are delivered to the palm of your hand with the Yardage Pro XG Golf GPS device. Designed to make your game smarter for fewer strokes, the compact Yardage Pro unit stores up to 10 courses with hole-by-hole detail, and its large 2.1-inch display with a backlight makes reading and accessing distances effortless. Finally, the Yardage Pro is waterproof so you can use it in any weather conditions without worrying. The Yardage Pro GPS is accurate within two yards, offering the best accuracy available for the game--and the same degree of accuracy as any other golf GPS devices on the market. Unlike a laser rangefinder, the Yardage Pro GPS allows you to determine the distance to objects that are not in your line of sight, providing you with distances to the green that are difficult to get with laser rangefinders. With rangefinders you can overshoot the green and struggle to hold the rangefinder steady. The Yardage Pro GPS gives you immediate feedback so you won't have to worry about holding up play and your concentration can remain on the game. The Bushnell Yardage Pro allows you to store up to 10 golf courses at a time on one device. A membership to iGolf.com gives you access to the world's largest golf course database, allowing you to download up to 100 courses yearly, that all can be synced to your Yardage Pro through a simple USB connection. The Bushnell Yardage Pro offers you the birds eye view of the course so your play can be more deliberate, accurate, and successful. Using Bushnell Yardage Pro Sync and the iGolf Database: Bushnell and iGolf have partnered to provide Bushnell Yardage Pro users with the world's largest, most accurate database of GPS course files available. A free membership on iGolf.com enables you to track your handicap, catch up on golf headlines, and find reviews of your favorite course. A paid membership with a low one-year subscription fee allows you to download and save up to 100 GPS course files annually. A one-year membership contract with iGolf allows you to download and save any available golf courses onto your computer to use with the Yardage Pro. Since all golf course files are stored on your computer you can easily swap course files on and off the Yardage Pro as needed. The currency of the information on the iGolf website is updated regularly with any renovations or changed holes so you have access to the most up to date information possible. Locate golf courses on the iGolf database using a simple search tool--just enter one or two keywords within the course name to produce a list of results. An advanced search option is available to narrow results further as necessary. After you have located your golf course in the iGolf database, you will see the GPS Enabled area of the screen. The program will let you know if Front/Center/Back measurements, Custom Points with measurements for the hazards on the course, and Course Images for each individual green are available. Transferring downloaded golf courses to your Yardage Pro from your PC is easy. Simply open the Bushnell Sync Application, connect the Yardage Pro to the USB port on the computer, and power up the unit.

| This GPS gives the perfect amount of information for the everyday golfer, and even for more advanced players. It is easy to use and set up. I love the fact that I can dowload up to 100 courses, and I don't have to renew my membership each year unless I need a different course. One of the things I really like, is that you can see how far you actually hit the ball (I'm sure all GPS systems are like that...but NOT rangefinders!) One final note...I'm not the type of person that likes having something clipped to my belt, like a cell phone. However, this is how i carry this GPS, and I can't even tell its there. It's so slim and light, you dont even notice it until you need it. Great product, at half the price of many GPS systems or even rangefinders. |
great, inexpensive little unit

| Reviewer: T. Mitchell, Baltimore, MD |
| I purchased the iGolf branded unit last February, not long before it was rebranded to Bushnell. I used the unit 2 or 3 times and then dropped it on a cart path (butterfingers) and broke it. I called support, got a RMA and sent it back. Sure, it cost me return UPS but I told them that I had dropped it and they replaced the unit anyway. I've used this unit for about 40 rounds this year, at numerous courses and the distances are usually spot on with fairway markers. Even when off, not more that 5 yds. Those that complain about not knowing of the membership cost obviously did not do their homework. You can download 100 courses in a year for the membership, and they are yours to keep. I found one course in my area that had not been mapped. I submitted it to support and they had the course available within 1 month. Not too shabby. Sure, this thing is a very basic unit and is priced accordingly. But for guys like me (14 index), this is a great unit. If I played in the fairway more often, I probably wouldn't need a gps, but trying to find distance from the rough was a challenge and this little unit fits the bill. |
I am thrilled!!

| Simple set up and easy operation. Turn it on as I get to the course and I have yardage before I am on the first tee. I carry it in my pocket and it does not loose the satellites. Best golf aid I have purchased. |

This gps is just as accurate as my golfing
buddies more expensive units. It is easy to program and use. The only downside is that the website for downloading golf courses may have only a few of the course in your area. Don't let that stop you from purchasing a Neo because programming the local courses is so simple. Just don't hold up the group behind you while doing it.
PS. You may find as I did that the
biggest benefit is inside 100 yards.
You may not be as good as you think
at judging the distance to the pin
on these less than full swing
shots.

I had a Neo iGolf and when I broke it, I had to order another one. I selected the Bushnell and was very pleased to find that I don't have to scroll to another screen to view the front and back distance to the green. It is all right there as you proceed to the hole.
I am very pleased with it, and I like the easy down load and large variety of golf courses available.
What's more - I made price comparisons from the large online discount golf shops and even the [...] web site. None of the prices were as reasonable for a new one as Amazon.com. Who knew?

| The GPS works as advertised, easy to use and read, only down side is the joining of Bushnell for downloading courses is a bit higher than I would have liked, other wise an excellent purchase. |

| Reviewer: John McCoy, |
| Bought this based on its price, size, simplicity, and good ratings and couldn't be happier. Device is small enough to fit easily in my pocket and very accurate. I had intial trouble initializing the device which was frustrating, but after a call to Bushnell the problems were corrected. Naming of custom points could be faster but is easy to perform. I've really enjoyed using this GPS. |
Great device.

Bushnell Neo Golf GPS Review
|
| Review Date: April 29, 2010 |
| Reviewer: D. Taylor, bellbrook, ohio United States |
| I bought this a month ago and have used with a golf partner for three rounds. This works great and for the price, unbelievable! We set this unit in the golf cart and leave it on for the entire 18 hole round. It always shows the yardage immediately and no acquiring satellites waiting. Only gives basic yardage, front, middle, back of green, but that's really all we need. The readout is large enough we can easily see without picking up. The battery is long lasting. Played two 18 hole rounds and it was still going. Runs on rechargeable batteries so no need to burn through disposables like I did with a Garmin GPS that died after 13 months, and I got the worst customer service of my life. Buy the Neo and you won't be disappointed! |

| Reviewer: Golf crazy, Michigan |
| I have used the Neo on several courses and the distances have been on the mark (based on nearby sprinkler heads and tee box markings). The battery is amazing, played five rounds (about 18 hrs) and showed 40% battery life remaining. Not real fancy with a lot of bells & whistles but gives me the information I need, especially helpful for those times when you wander away from the fairway or approach the green from a side angle where markers don't exist. Downloading courses from the iGolf website is a snap. For under $100 bucks you can't go wrong and you will not be disappointed |
A very good product for the price

| Reviewer: Timothy M. Odell, |
I didn't have high expectations for this, but wanted an inexpensive golf GPS. This worked PERFECTLY.
It does a great job of judging distance to the green -- front, middle and center -- which is really what I wanted it for. I found it was missing a few distances to fairway bunkers, but I could add those as needed.
One thing I really liked about it was the size... It is small enough to clip onto your belt and easily pops in and out so you can check it on each stroke.
Very satisfied with this -- and suggesting it to all my friends! |

| Great value for the money. Had some difficulty loading the software and had to call Bushnell product support to get it done. It had to do with uninstalling Java 64 bit software. After that, it was easy. |
Excellent product

| Reviewer: Gaynor Neilson, NSW, Australia |
| I am very happy with my Bushnell Neo golf GPS. I have been able to download lots of courses that I wanted and the few that were not available I just have to visit the course and plot myself before I can use it. I bought one for a friend as well and forgot to change it to metres instead of yards and change the WAAS setting at first so wondered why I was getting 2 different readings, but once I realized what was wrong and changed these it was spot on with the distances. The instructions weren't great but playing with things is always the best way to work out how to use it. |
everything you need and nothing more

| Reviewer: quicksticks, South Florida |
The Bushnell Neo gives you yardage to the green as well as a shot feature to see how far your ball went. You must subscribe to Igolf for $35, but you can download up to 100 courses and you have a year to do it. Once you download a course onto your computer, you own it. The Neo is compact, but easy to read. The only thing I don't like about it, and it's a minor complaint, is that you have to manually advance to the next hole. The rechargable battery easily lasts three rounds. The Neo is a lot of bang for the buck.

| Compact, stylish and does what it's designed to do. I thought it had a problem the other day when it showed about 950 yards to the first green. My problem, I had it dialed into an adjacent golf course. |

| For the price that I paid for, for the size, for the information that I get, for the fact that I just charge the battery in it and not replace it every other time....does not get better then this. Holds 10 Golf Course at a time, you can add or delete as many as you want. Priceless. |

| Reviewer: Steve A. Ferguson, Fort Collins, CO |
I ordered the Bushnell Neo Golf GPS as part of a Bundle to include the GPS, a Carring Case and a Car Charger. I ended up receiveing the GPS as ordered from Amazon, I received the Case from Bargin Bin and the Charger from Planet something.
However, the Case and the Charger are for a Apple iPhone and will not work with the GPS unit. I assumed that when I bought the GPS that the Case and The Charger were for the GPS. I don't know why you would sell a GPS and then a Case and a Charger for another item that is not compatible.
I sent the Charger back to Amazon and Amazon sent me another GPS, so now I have 2 GPS and no Charger or Case. When I contacted the other suppliers, ie the Charger and the Case, they said it was Amazons problem and deal with Amazon. I have sent several messages to Amazon and nothing has been done. Except, I am being asked to return the second GPS, I was planning on keeping the 2nd GPS until Amazon got the rest of the order corrected.
I now assume that Amazon is going to ignore there mistake and if I don't send back one of there other mistakes I will be charged.
I am happy with the GPS, I am not happy with the Case or the Car Charger or Amazon's Customer Service. |
Great golf aid

| The Neo fits in a pocket and is ready for instant use. I like the small size and find it has the yardages I need without a lot of extra information. Great product. |
