Amazon.com Product Description
Tired of feeling adrift on the course? Turn to the iGolf neo pocket-size GPS, a handy golf-course aid that automatically displays the distances to key points on any golf course in the world. The iGolf neo features such construction details as a 80 x 120 high-contrast LCD screen, a lightweight, compact housing, and a built-in SiRF Star III GPS receiver. Once you step on the course, however, form takes a backseat to function, as the neo displays the distance to the front, center, and back of the green, while also letting users add up to four 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 iGolf neo holds up to 10 course files 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, you don't need to aim the neo or see the hole to receive accurate results. Simply choose the corresponding setting and you'll have all the info you need to pick the right club, swing with confidence, and enjoy the game more.

The iGolf neo 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 iGolf neo--which comes with a USB cable, software CD, and a belt clip--runs for up to 16 hours on its rechargeable lithium-ion battery. The unit itself measures 3.25 by 1.75 by 0.75 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 2.5 ounces.

all it needs to be
This GPS is just what I needed. Hard to believe but sometimes I find myself with no distance marker available ( they are in the fairway) this product gives you all the info you need and is easy to set up and use. It has all the golf courses I use and the Exec 9 I play I was able to map as I played it and had the info available and accurate the next time I played. I say accurate because the guy I was playing with had a 600 dollar Nikon viewfinder that shot the flag and I had mapped the spots front middle back where they usually place the flag and I was within a yard or two of every pin placement - which works for me. Exl $$ Good size easy to read and work. Only holds 10 courses but easy to add and delete courses as needed from handheld and if you are like me 10 course works most of the time. Battery life has not been a problem and recharge is no big deal. I would recommend to anyone who can read and is not afraid to play with a electronic device. If you have questions GOOD luck when I first got the unit I had a question about adding a course and wrote an email in Dec - still waiting for reply. But just keep playing with device and figured it out - like any other electronic device you just have go from a-b-c, it's a device and will not go like you from a-c on its own.

Great product for the money
I looked at the more expensive GPS out there, but decided 300-400$ was just too much to spend.

I liked this one for the price and that I didn't need to buy a yearly subscription to keep the GPS functional. The interface is easy to use, downloading courses and doing the sync-up is a cinch.

On the course, the GPS works great, it was within 1 yard of the course markers. It hooked up with the satellites in a timely manner. My golfing buddy gave me a bit of a rashing for buying a "toy" - but after a few holes I had him asking me the yardage. I did get him back when I told him it was 180yrds to the pin when it was only 150yrds. LOL.

All in all I am happy with my purchase and I recommend this GPS. I like to think of it as my Electronic Caddy.

iGolf NEO
This is a great product. It is about half the size of most golfing GPS units and easily fits in your pocket without that bulky feeling.

Highly recommended.
