The Garmin 255 is clear, fast, accurate. I bought the refurbished model and it looks new. I have had it now for 4 months and can’t imagine being without it much as I feel about the cell phone. I use it on a daily basis, tracking down addresses for my business. It saves me countless hours of time and frustration. I have just one thing that I would change if I could and that would be, that it have a mileage counter on it. This is my second GPS, the first model, a different brand had a total mile counter that counted down the miles to the destination and an estimated time of arrival, which the Garmin does have. It is nice to know just how far u have left to go before u get there. There are some models of Garmins that don’t tell the street names out, they just say turn right or turn left. The 255 tells u the street names and the direction. My daughter has a model that doesn’t and she like mine better.

I bought this watch as I am training for my first marathon. It is fantastic. You can change the screen on the watch to what information you need: time, pace per mile, distance, etc.
You must turn it on a few minutes before you need to use it so it has time to locate the satellites. Other than that, everything is great. I think the size of this watch is more for a man than a woman.

Bought November 16, 2008. Died while in use July 16, 2009. It’s not worth the money. 8 months to the day. Think twice.

I was trying to descide between the Sonocaddie V300 and the Upro GPS. I liked the way the Upro has the “track anywhere” feature but doesn’t have the scorecard or the analysis feature like the Sonocaddie. Also, users have complained that the Upro is difficult to see under bright sun. I think this is because with the Upro, you are watching a true video screen and not an animation. All TV screens get washed out in sunlight. This is why I chose the Sonocaddie.
Two amazing things that struck me while using the Sonocaddie.
(1) The first time I used it I kept noticing that the backlight was on after 10-15 minutes although I had it set to go off after 30 seconds. Then I realized the backlight WAS off! The display, in the sun, was so good that it appeared as if the backlight was on when in fact it wasn’t.
(2) I accidently left the unit on after playing a round. It was on for a total of 24 hours and it still had 1/4 battery charge left!
Reviewers have stated that the Upro only lasts for maybe two rounds. Another reason I chose the Sonocaddie.
The only reason I did not give the review 5 stars was for it’s lack of documentation. The manual does NOT clearly explain how to map a course from scratch. Takes a little figuring on your part.
The unit itself seemed to perform like it should. I played a 9 hole course and the yardage seemed to be right on, although there is no way to verify this. I will be anxious to see when I play my home course that has course markers to compare the yardage.
One note…when using the “Mark” feature, where you walk off the distance of a particular shot, make sure you have enough satellites to do this. When you first turn the unit on let it acclimate for about 5 minutes before using it. I had hit a great drive and wanted to mark the distance. I hadn’t turned the unit on yet and when I did, it acquired three sats after about 30 seconds. I proceeded to walk off the yardage and noticed that after about 75 yards it said 150 yards. When I got to my tee shot it registerd a 300 yard drive and I know it was about 250-260 yards. But it wasn’t the unit that made the error but me not waiting to acquire all the sats (eventually 9).
Conclusion: As stated, I am looking forward to playing my home course with this unit and also want to map a course on my own. The unit is great for the obvious reason you get a GPS, but this one has the scorecard feature and game analysis where you can review your entire round for every shot. If you like to analize your game you don’t have to jot down every shot, fairway, bunker, saves, putts. etc. This unit will record it for you.
I only wish that there was a mounting unit for push carts. I know they make one and it attaches to the handle of push carts, but users have complained that the unit moves too much.
Great product.

OK, I am used to hiking with Green Trail maps for Washington State. I was hoping that this product would be to their level, or heck even more current. But no way, I pulled up areas I go to frequently and the maps are not even close to he quality of the green trail maps. Which is very sad considering google earth does a better job than this software and it is free.
For all you techies who rated this product highly get grip, paper maps dominate this product. GPS software is not even close to the quality of a paper map. Also, if I wanted to do all of this electronic file manipualtion that other users speak of why even buy a GPS unit. The point is I wanted something superior to old out of date paper maps and instead of that got “new” electronic maps that are worthless.

So I just got done using the Swami for a quick 9 hole run, because I was anxious to see how it would perform.
Upon completion of the round I am happy to say that I am VERY pleased. Not only did the Swami do as advertised,
I was able to shoot one of my lowest scores of the season so far with it. The yardages it gives are very accurate
and the best part in my opinion is that it doesn’t take a huge amount of time to “settle” down when you get to your
ball to acquire a yardage, which helps with your pace of play. (Unlike the skycaddie which takes a fair amount of time to “settle” on a yardage.)
The $35 activation fee is definitely reasonable in my opinion as well, because it’s really only a one-time fee if you choose. You
can download 10 courses that you play on a regular basis and then that’s really all you need, unless you travel a lot.
All in all, I HIGHLY recommend this GPS to both amateurs and scratch golfers alike. It’s probably the BEST GPS for the money on the market right now.

I had a Garmin GPS map60 before and was always losing signal in tree cover. Haven’t had that problem since I got the 60 CSx. Most of the features are the same exept for the compass and the altimeter. Color is nice also. Worth the extra money.
