Dynamic RangeVue™

Presenting Dynamic RangeVue™ with the SkyCaddie SGXw. Pre-set yardage arcs adjust dynamically over fairway landing areas and over greens to allow you to select the best club for every shot much more quickly. RangeVue™ provides more information, faster and more reliably than any laser rangefinder without aiming or requiring line of sight.

Optical Trackpad

The SkyCaddie SGXw Optical Trackpad avoids the operational problems faced by touch-screen users on a golf course, and provides reliable, precise on-screen navigation for more accurate distances without touching, scratching or smudging your display.

AutoView Technology

Utilizing “button-less” and “touch-less” technology, the SkyCaddie SGXw AutoView feature enables golfers to change between their most popular screens, including HoleVue, IntelliGreen and their Scorecard, with just a simple turn of the wrist from portrait to landscape positions.

TruePoint™ GPS Precision Positioning Technology

Your SGXw features a high-performance GPS engine for ultra-fast satellite acquisition and unmatched accuracy and reliability. You can't trust your club, if you can't trust your caddie.

High Precision Ground-Verified Course Maps 4

You can’t be sure of your yardages, unless it’s SkyCaddie. Only SkyCaddie walks every course to make sure you have information you can trust. No Tour player uses yardage books derived from satellite images or flyovers. Neither should you. Get unlimited access to the most complete, most reliable, ground-verified course maps in the game with a simple annual plan with no hidden fees or variable charges.

Interactive HoleVue™ With Zoom

SkyCaddie is creating, at a rate of hundreds per month, the only high-precision graphics library of every golf hole, based on ground-corrected data. With SkyCaddie HoleVue on the SGXw, you’ll know the distance to any point on a hole in order to play that hole with the fewest strokes. Need a close-up view to strategize your next shot? HoleVue includes a patented zoom function to dial into the exact area you need to see.

IntelliGreen®

With SkyCaddie’s patented IntelliGreen® technology, the exact shape of the green automatically rotates on your SGXw to match your angle of approach to provide all of the distances you need to hit more greens and avoid 3-putts. This proprietary feature gives you a chance to turn every shot into a scoring opportunity by providing front carry and back distances, depth of green, and distances to any other point on the green — simultaneously.

IntelliGreen® Pro™

Built on proven IntelliGreen technology, IntelliGreen Pro (another proprietary feature of the SkyCaddie SGXw) adds distances to major green contours, false fronts, front and back carry distances — plus to any other point on the green from your angle of attack. This kind of crucial scoring information is only possible by precision-mapping a golf course from the ground with sub-meter accuracy. It’s only available from SkyCaddie.
