The G5 watch is ready to play straight out of the box for quick and simple set up.
All you need to do is charge the watch and skip the connect to app screen
(top left button) to start using your G5 device.
We do however recommend connecting your G5 watch to the Shot Scope app before
you play for the best user experience. This will allow you to update the golf courses you
play to the most recent map data and check for any rmware updates. Running the latest
rmware will ensure you have the best experience using G5.
Shot Scope provides both an Android and iOS app.
To download or install the Shot Scope app, simply search for
Shot Scope on either the App Store or the Google Play Store.

If you have just completed the tutorial the watch will reset, you
then need to reconnect the watch to the mobile app. Ensure
Bluetooth is turned on in your phone settings, log into the app
and then press the ‘Connect’ button at the top of the screen.

Step 4: Check course maps
We recommend that you check the mapping status of any courses
you intend to play 48 hours before your tee off time. This is to
ensure that the course is in the system and has been mapped.
While most courses will be mapped and already downloaded to
the watch, occasionally there will be a new course that isn’t on the
system or your course may have an update pending.
To view the list of mapped courses on the Shot Scope system,
navigate to the ‘Courses’ section in the app. This is present on the
tab bar of the iOS app and the main menu of the Android app.

Step 5: Searching for, subscribing, and adding a course
You can search our course database by entering the name of the course
or using your location to nd nearby courses. Either use the search bar or
the lter at the top right of the screen to nd courses by proximity to your
current location.
To make sure you always have the most up to date course maps,
subscribe to any course that you play frequently to get notications when
the map has been updated. To subscribe, tap on the ‘Subscribe’ button
next to the course name and it will be added on the sync waiting list if
there’s an update available for the course.
If your course is mapped but not yet on the watch, the course will have
an ‘add’ button beside it, tap this and the course will be added to your
ready to sync waiting list.
We may have your course in the database but it has not yet been
mapped. In this situation, the course will have a ‘request’ button beside
it, tap this to request the course be mapped. This will notify the mapping
team who will endeavour to get any course mapped within 48 hours.

If you can’t nd the name of the course,
press the ‘Request’ button at the bottom of
the screen. This will bring up a form that
can be lled out and sent to our mapping
team who will map your course.

Step 6: Syncing course changes
If you have any course maps that need to be uploaded to the
watch, or any updates that need to be transferred to the watch,
you should see a red notication at the top of the courses
screen. If you wish to perform a sync then tap on the ‘Ready
to Sync’ button to navigate to the ready to sync waiting list.
On the resulting screen, you will see the list of courses that
require a sync. Press the ‘Tap to Sync’ button next to the course
you want to update and sync will begin. You can sync as many
or as few in this waiting list as you wish.
