I got one about 6 minths ago. It has been working fine.
This long weekend, I was about to play a new course, I was trying to down load the course, the website will not allow me unless I upgrade my S/W to 4.0. I spent one hour trying to make it work but no luck. I had to play the new course without it.
The next day, I spent another 2 hours trying to get the S/W upgraded, after it was finally done, my computers (4 of them) can not see the Upro anymore even it is plugged in. I called the help line, they said that I have to wait > 60min. I wrote them an e-mail, they said that I have to wait for > 5days.
I do not understand why do they want to force a new S/W if the old one is working just fine. If they do need to make a new version, why they can not make it backward compatible.
I am just so disappointed by Callaway, my long weekend was ruined.

I bought a set of these hybrids because I was tired of carry both fairway woods and irons in my golf bag. It took some time to get used to this, however; I really like using these hybrids better. They give me the distance of a fairway wood but the control of an iron. I don't know why anyone would use woods or irons anymore.

Confession from a golf ball snob.

I've been playing golf for 35+ years and had only been playing ProV1's, NXT tours this last decade or so because I liked the distance and feel. I received a sleeve of the Limbos while playing in an outing this fall and for some reason I pulled one out and played it. WWWOOOWWW!
This ball is amazing. I hit 20 yards farther with all my irons and it has a great feel around the green. You can't beat the price either.

I have owned this product for approximately one year and I am very satisfied. This is actually my second one as the first one slipped off of my belt and it was run over by the golf cart behind me. This is a rugged unit and will take drops and a certain amount of abuse, but it won't handle being run over.

If you are looking for a unit that keeps track of your scores and other statistics, this is not for you. It will automatically find the course you are at and will tell you yardage to the hole. It will also measure that long drive that you hit with your driver. It is quite accurate and you will find that it is hard to play without it once you get used to it.

Golflogix does constant course updates and will notify you of this. I have never found a course that is not available on this unit. The $30.00 annual fee is also the least expensive of the various manufactures. There tech support is easy to work with as I did find an error on one course. I called them and a change was made in 48 hours.

I should mention that several of my golfing buddies after seeing my golflogix, have gone ahead and purchased one for themselves.

Five seconds was all it took for this umbrella to upturn itself, breaking its ribs. I had to throw it away immediately. A golf umbrella that can't take even a mild wind is a waste of money. Didn't last five seconds.

I've had my Golf Buddy for 3 months now. I can't comment on the other GPS units out there but Golf Buddy is GREAT!!! I have had no technical problems with my unit. I will advise you this. Before you go to a golf course make sure the course is downloaded into your unit. Just because it's on the Computer Directory it may not be loaded into your unit. I found out the hard way. Checked the computer and there was the course. Arrived at the course and Golf Buddy couldn't find it. Called Golf Buddy and they Emailed me the directions on how to download courses (no charge of course). I am not very good with computers and downloading stuff (that's why God gave us children)but these were very easy to follow directions. I followed them and bingo it worked great. You can also delete courses if you wish (sorry Alaska I don't think I will be coming there to play golf)and add at anytime. The great thing is NO YEARLY FEE'S. Hit'em Long and Stright and enjoy your GOLF BUDDY.

This item is advertised as Mac compatible, but it was not compatible with my Leopard 10.5.8 Operating System. After downloading files a Customer Service Representative sent, I was able to initialize the uPro and download 4 courses after paying $120 for 50 courses. I took the device out to play the next day, but turned it off after a couple of holes because it didn't offer any information that I didn't already have on the Cart's GPS Screen. As I was leaving the course, I tried to turn it back on to show a friend. It was dead. So, I immediately returned it to Amazon. However, uPro is refusing to refund the 4 courses that I downloaded, so I am in a Credit Card Dispute with them, which I will easily win since the information was never used and I returned the device. Advice - don't buy this piece of junk.

We've used our Gustbuster umbrella a few times and it broke! The plastic hinges are prone to braking so handle with care. The ubrella has a warranty, but it will cost you $10 and shipping to get it fixed. I've had other golf type umbrellas with metal hinges that lasted a very long time, so be advised and treat with care.

A very big umbrella (see my uploaded photo). We wanted it to have in the car so that our three little girls could all be under it with one adult. Plleeenty of room under here. My wife doesn't like pink so I was a bit worried about the color, but it is very subtle and just around the edges. Seems sturdy, but we haven't taken it out in the wind yet. For the price, 20usd, you can't beat it.

I've had this umbrella for nearly a year, and mostly love it. Great size, very sturdy construction, looks good. It has one substantial flaw, which is that the latch that holds the umbrella closed is not very effective, and it's easy to bump the umbrella and cause it to open unless you velcro it closed. In particular, the process of trying to velcro the umbrella closed necessarily bumps the latch, causing it to open!
