Bushnell Yardage Pro XGC Replacement Suggestions

[golfinbrad]

I have been using the Bushell Yardage Pro XGC for several seasons. I originally purchased through iGolf. The unit gives front, middle, back on the green, but no on course distances without paying iGolf their annual fee. Their fee is like $25 a year for 10 or 20 courses. I like the until, but tired of the fees. There are too many gps options that have all this info preloaded. I am looking for suggestions for a more up-to-date unit that gives both parts of the greens as well as distances on the course (bunkers, corners, water, etc) without fees. I looked at laser rangefinders, but don't feel I have a steady enough hand to shoot them consistently. I do appreciate your input.

The garmins are great and good customer service on updates. I've sent them notes about a course and there was an update a few months later. Look at the G8, 7 or 6. I have the 6 and like it a lot.

Thanks dbdors!!! Garmin has a great reputation in general, so would expect them to be a quality product. I appreciate giving me specific models. I will check them out and start hinting to Ms. Claus. Thanks again

Bushnell's new GPS devices (Neo iON watch, and Neo Ghost) come with over 35,000 courses already loaded. No annual fees. The Ghost is a terrific product if you don't like wearing a watch while you play. Let me know if you have any questions about either.
