SkyCaddie SG4 User Rating: 3.33 Stars 3.33 out of 5 (112 reviews)

Score compiled from multiple sources.

The Skycaddie SG4 doesn’t get the same scores at more expensive models, but there are quite a few users that absolutely love this device. Take a look below at our summary of pros and cons.

Most Mentioned Pros:

  • Good customer service
  • Ease to use
  • Durability
  • Easy to Read
  • Accurate
  • Ability to move the pin for more precise yardage
  • Several users felt their scores had come down as a result of using this unit.

Most Mentioned Cons:

  • Poor power cable design – this was the most frequent complaint.
  • Slow to acquire satellites
  • Loss of signal during round
  • Inaccurate – this happens with many GPS units. Some users think it’s really accurate, while others do not. We noted more users felt the unit was accurate or (“close enough”), but a few were unhappy with accuracy.
  • Battery life
  • Subscription fees
  • Poor customer service – Again, more users were pleased with customer service than displeased, but as more than one had problems, we felt it appropriate to mention in both pros and cons.
