Nice GPS

This a great GPS! I paid $99 for this item from Amazon which is about $40 less elsewhere. Easy to operate, can clip to belt or hat, battery last 27 holes without charging, not sure of the accuracy but in my mind it's better than pacing steps for an estimate of yardage. And it's easy to update and put your name and phone number on the device program. Updates are free, which includes US or by state, and all other country's.

It's all I need!

Love it! It's the perfect size and offers just right functionality for me. I did not care for the watch version, nor the numerous features I did not need or use. (I used my husband's non golf buddy version, when available and found it the too complicated) Needing simple yardage information, this Golf Buddy Voice 2 provides so far pretty accurate measuring and love that I can keep in my pocket, or in my compartment tray of my walking cart, or affix on my hat if I so choose. However I have not used the Voice at all, preferring just to look for yardage.

Small, but works great and great price

No need to buy anything more expensive. Very small, fits on carabiner on my bag. Some wear them with a watch band or even clipped to their cap, especially if they want to hear the voice, but I am nearly deaf and couldn't hear it if I wanted to. I just need the yardage, not the voice. Turn it on before your round and it connects quickly and knows what hole you are on throughout your round. Battery lasts at least two rounds, and easy to recharge with standard USB cord. Best value of all the devices out there.

I love my GolfBuddy

It's simple to use, stays securely on my visor, and with a click of the button, gives the distance to the center of the green, which is about all I'm interested in knowing. Our course has a few holes fairly close together, so occasionally on a Par 3 it may tell you that it's 240 yards to the green. On my husband's Garmin it's possible to change a hole number, however, the Golf Buddy relies completely on GPS info. You need to remember to turn it on when you first arrive at the golf course, as its "search for satellites" takes awhile.

Accurate Rangefinder--Easy to use

My previous rangefinder died and one of my friends had this. I purchased it and so far it works great. I turn it on when I get to the golf course and it finds my course and lets me know when I reach the first hole. Yardages seem very accurate. I have compared this to other rangefinders and this usually agrees within 1-2 yards. Very easy to use and holds a charge for a long time.

Superior Service

This is an update from an earlier, 3-star review. My unit's sound chip failed after just 5-6 use. I contacted GolfBuddy and they took care of the issue immediately! I received a brand-new unit quickly and with almost no questions asked. While I was a little disappointed that the unit failed so quickly, I was totally impressed with the after-the-sale customer service! Bravo Zulu! Regarding the unit itself, love it. Works like a charm. The only problem I have noted is that I'm not the straightest hitter and sometimes when a shot strays too close to an adjacent fairway, the GolfBuddy gets confused and reads the wrong hole. No big deal but a nuisance. Otherwise, a great help on the course.

Great device

I was torn between getting the GolfBuddy or a binocular to measure the distances. After much research I decided to go with the GolfBuddy. I have used it a few times and it has found all the courses that I play and the distances are comparable to the scope when I play with someone that uses one. I wear it on my belt and I longer have to look to find the 150 marker and estimate my distance.

Don't hesitate, just buy it

After 4 rounds with this thing, I love it. I clip it to my pocket and check it before every shot which is super convenient. The clip is very sturdy and I have no worries about losing this in the middle of a round. The distances for the courses I play are spot on, I have checked them against mine and some of my buddies' laser range finders and we are never more than 3 yards different; plus this has the added bonus of giving you the distance to the front and back of the green. Battery life has not been an issue, I even forgot to charge it between two rounds that I played and it did not die on me. Love it!

Great product which is just as accurate as my range finder!

This is a great product that works every time. I have used it from so many angles, shots, and rounds, and it has not led me astray! I would recommend purchasing one of these at this price because it is as accurate as my rangefinder and is just so easy to use and I love that you don't even have to look at it. Just press the button and you get the yardages, hold it and you get front, back, and middle. GREAT PRODUCT AND GREAT COMPANY IMO! I don't even use my rangefinder very often anymore because this is just so fast. You will not be disappointed if you know what you are getting!

Improves my game, not my swing

Excellent so far. I have used it three times and it finds the course quickly, and one was out in the boonies. Distances have seemed very accurate and battery has been outstanding. It doesn't give you hazard distances but then I didn't pay for one that did. Fits nicely on my hat and I am very happy with this purchase.
