Chris asks…

What cell phone is best suited to golf GPS software?

I’ve seen guys using the Apple iPhone as their dedicated GPS system on the course, but would like to hear from others before I rush out and spend $500+ on a cell phone!
I’m looking for help, not foolish answers from uninformed clowns. If you can’t help, don’t answer

Craig answers:

Iphone 3g i think they have application for that or the new blackberry

Laura asks…

Has anyone used the freecaddie golf gps software on the Samsung Omnia?

I am trying to select a course which i have transferred over to my phone, but i can’t open it with freecaddie. I have followed all instructions but nothing is working. Any suggestions?

Craig answers:

I have used the free-caddie before, but I was really not happy at all with it. I think the sync technology is still a couple of years off…phone technology is just not there yet.

After I played with it and was frustrated for a few weeks, I just went out and got a Yardage Pro Golf GPS. It was not too expensive and it works flawlessly. I found them online for $200.

Maria asks…

Whats the difference between a golf gps and a rangefinder?

And which would is better for the price and product

Craig answers:

A golf gps is a gadget that is about the size of a cell phone that shows (on the screen) where you are on the hole, a map of the hole, and the distance to the pin. More exotic ones include distances to bunkers, layup yardages, and many have a distance memory that helps with exact yardages that you hit each club. Rangefinders are less complex because you must aim and shoot a laser towards the target. The rangefinder is simple, takes getting used to, less convenient for most players, but more accurate.
