Cruzer 1,993 Posted August 22, 2011 Anybody ever try and/or use this? I have heard about it, thought I'd give it a try - literally downloaded the app waiting on the box to go off. Got to say, it's pretty damn cool. The graphics and details are great, the yardage intel dead on. I upgraded to the Champions membership, was only $19.95, but you can use the free membership and it works pretty good too. Highly recommend for quality and way cheaper than any GPS range finder out there. http://golflogix.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shovelheadt 67 Posted August 22, 2011 I thought it was illegal in Golf to use devices like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgumm23 2 Posted August 22, 2011 Used it. Like it. I happen to have the handheld golflogix-8 so I use that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cruzer 1,993 Posted August 22, 2011 It's illegal in tournament play on the PGA and other various professional tours. But such devices are legal and allowed in most local tournaments and events, and certainly in our weekend money games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not allowed on the PGA Tour, but legal and allowed everywhere else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfalcon 824 Posted August 22, 2011 No, mullis are for poosays .... Oh yeah, I totally agree if they aren't from the tee box. Taking a mulli on an approach are putt is a total poos move. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NorthernVike 2,081 Posted August 22, 2011 I own a Skycaddie SG5 It cost about $40 a year but it is more accurate than the ones that give you yardage based off a map. Really like it, it has improved my game by a couple of strokes a round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drobeski 3,061 Posted August 22, 2011 Oh yeah, I totally agree if they aren't from the tee box. Taking a mulli on an approach are putt is a total poos move. No, they should never be used ever ...if you actually plan on considering you're score at the end of the round to be accurate. Breakfast balls, mulligans, fluffing in the rough ...all no nos with my group. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edjr 5,784 Posted August 22, 2011 I use nRange Golf GPS for the blackberry. I don't golf without it. 1st 3 courses is free, anymore after that is 20 for the life of the phone. I haven't had to pay yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Breakfast balls, mulligans, fluffing in the rough ...all no nos with my group. Totally agree on breakfast balls. If the course doesn't have a driving range or you don't have time for a full warmup, then yeah you can have one. But otherwise they are a big no no. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Breakfast balls, mulligans, fluffing in the rough ...all no nos with my group. Lift, Clean, Place = in your own fairway. I don't like the idea of hitting an approach with a glob of mud on it, or out of a divot some lazy fock didn't fill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted August 22, 2011 I use the free version. I like it a lot. The course where I keep my handicap apparently uses a competing app because it is not available on Golflogix. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IAMWood 6 Posted August 22, 2011 Totally agree on breakfast balls. If the course doesn't have a driving range or you don't have time for a full warmup, then yeah you can have one. But otherwise they are a big no no. Never called it breakfast balls. But yes, two off the first tee IF you need it. If you hit a 150 yard playable, you don't need it. In the woods, yes you can take it. Gray area on the IF, we try not to take it. Never been an issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzer 1,993 Posted August 22, 2011 My group of guys are all single digit, pretty salty golfers - you come in with an 81, better bring the checkbook. They aren't total sticklers, but damn near. Unless it's Winter and the grass is dead we play it down, no exceptions. We observe all the local rules and basically all of them in the book. About the only one I know we let is slide on is the one ball rule - maybe even the 14 club rule if somebody got a new stick and hasn't hit it yet or something.

If I am not playing for money, I don't really care too much what someone does. Move it off a rock or root, roll it in the fairway, I don't really care one way or the other. If we are playing for something, you should follow all of the rules (with the exception of the aforementioned 1 ball rule). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
