What’s In The Box
NEW features for 2010 (More indepth detail below) :
Beta Software updates available to SkyCaddie owners
Beta releases are now accessible to SkyCaddie members with software version 3.0, also known as the Course & Feature Expansion Package. A limited number of SkyCourses® with this new feature are currently available for use, with more being added daily. Assuming a successful Beta testing period, with generous feedback from customers, Beta Releases will be offered for golf courses with significant contours.
IntelliGreen® Pro (Beta)
IntelliGreen Pro displays distances to major tiers, contours, false fronts and mounds from a your angle of approach to the green.
Many greens have major elevation changes — upper levels, lower levels , mounds and false fronts — that require an approach to avoid being on the wrong place on the green.* Failing to take these into consideration can lead to three putts and lost strokes. With SkyCaddie’s
exclusive ground-mapping technology, you’ll know the distances to those parts of the green to avoid in order to “dial in”, or maximize, your scoring opportunities. No other rangefinder can provide this information, yet no Tour player would play without it. Lasers can’t measure to these areas on the green, and GPS products relying on satellite imagery can’t see — much less map — these key areas on greens.
IntelliGreen Pro (Beta) is a dynamically-enhanced version of IntelliGreen® that adds the ability to display major tiers, contours, false fronts and mounds from a your angle of approach to the green. By simply moving the IntelliGreen crosshairs to the ridge lines on the image of the green, you’ll get instant distances and depth information to major tiers. With IntelliGreen Pro, you’ll always know what’s ahead, no matter where you are on the hole... even if you can’t see the green!
HoleVue™ powered by TrueGround™ Mapping (Beta)
HoleVue displays a graphical image of a hole using SkyGolf’s reliable ground-mapping process.
SkyCaddie’s HoleVue may look like an ordinary golf hole graphic at first glance. The difference
is that every target on HoleVue has been verified by SkyGolf’s ground mapping, making it the most accurate and reliable golf hole graphical view in handheld GPS. Unlike most rangefinders, which rely on satellite imagery that is often outdated and unreliable,
only SkyCaddie® walks the course to capture accurate and verifiable data with the permission of over 24,000 participating golf course partners. Fairway hazards and targets that may have been missing, moved or modified since the last available aerial image was taken will always be included in SkyCaddie’s course maps because we walk each hole. Aerial and satellite imagery can have errors affecting all distance measurements,
including important green targets. Without the ability to verify and correct such general errors, almost any distance can be questionable. Although a satellite image may be able to provide an accurate distance measurement on occasion, the problem is that there is no way to authenticate or certify its accuracy without walking the course.
In creating HoleVue, SkyGolf® marries the very best aerial images with its proprietary ground maps to verify and authenticate every graphic. The result is a perfect match. By verifying every fairway, bunker and green target, HoleVue allows you to view key areas of the hole, zoom in on every target, and get a closer look at the course and what’s up ahead! All distance calculations are provided exclusively from TrueGround mapping of each hole and target, not from graphic images taken from satellites or flyovers. HoleVue will be available in limited quantities initially, but those quantities will grow rapidly as the hole images are corrected and rectified through our TrueGround mapping process. While this process is tedious and may delay release of HoleVue in mass quantities, the reliability factor is overriding our temptation to provide images with less reliability.
QuickVue™ powered by TrueGround™ Mapping
Quick, virtual road map to help any golfer develop a smart plan of attack on every hole.
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. All information is derived from SkyCaddie’s exclusive
TrueGround mapping technology to provide golfer’s with the highest reliability in the industry. QuickVue is available immediately on over 24,000 courses worldwide on SkyCaddie® devices supporting this powerful new feature.
Unlike most rangefinders relying on satellite imagery that is often outdated and unreliable, SkyCaddie courses are mapped from the ground with survey-grade GPS equipment. QuickVue™, powered by TrueGround mapping, is now accessible to SkyCaddie members owning a SG3, SG3.5, SG4 or SG5 with software version 3.0, also known as the Course & Feature Expansion Package.
