SkyCaddie SkyCaddie SGX Operator's manual

Introducing the SkyCaddie SGX
This Players Guide covers some of the powerful
features of the SGX so that you can start playing
golf with the SkyCaddie right away.
Each new SGX has been preloaded with basic
green information for up to 30,000 courses. This
preload is available for 30 days. After 30 days,
you will need to have a SkyCaddie membership to
continue to play with the preloaded courses or use
the Advanced Course Maps, which include features
such as Interactive HoleVue™, IntelliGreen® or
IntelliGreen® Pro.
While this Guide should provide you with SGX basics,
if you have any other questions about the SGX or its
features, please feel free to download and review the
PDF version of the SGX User Guide at http://www.
skygolf.com/skygolf/support/userguides.aspx.
We hope you enjoy your SkyCaddie experience and
that you play better, play faster, and have more fun!

Course & Hole Selection
STEP 5
The SGX will auto-select the course and hole
that you are on. Verify the course and hole
and select “OK” to play.

Interactive HoleVue
STEP 6
Interactive HoleVue™ with Zoom will appear,
displaying the true image of the hole.* Distances and
views will auto update as you walk down the fairway,
or as you move the cursor to any point on the hole.
* HoleVue available only on Advanced Feature course maps. See
www.skygolf.com for course and feature availability.

STEP 7
Marking Shot Distance
To mark shot distance, press the Mark Ball button
before you take your shot, then confirm. The distance
from that mark will show on the upper-right corner of
the HoleVue screen. When you arrive where the ball
landed, it will show the total shot distance.

STEP 8
HoleVue: XTarget
XTarget allows you to create a personal fairway target
between you and the green to help plan your approach.
To use XTarget, use the Joystick to move the yellow
target to any point on the fairway. The distance will
display from your location to the target and from the
target to the center of the green.

AutoView Technology
STEP 9
AutoView allows you to easily switch among the
most common play screens — Interactive HoleVue,
IntelliGreen and the Digital Scorecard — with just a
simple turn of the wrist.*
AutoView is made possible through the SGX’s
built-in accelerometer to display the three screens
without pressing a button.
* You must have a SkyCaddie membership and have already
downloaded an Advanced Feature course map to the SGX in
order to view the Interactive HoleVue and IntelliGreen. See www.
skygolf.com for course and feature availability.

AutoView Technology
STEP 10
Turn the SGX to the right to view IntelliGreen
Turn the SGX to the left to view Digital Scorecard
To maintain optimal GPS accuracy, return the SGX
to the portrait position after using the landscape
IntelliGreen or Scorecard feature.

STEP 11
IntelliGreen Pro
IntelliGreen Pro shows you
the true shape of the green,
automatically rotating
to match your angle of
approach. It shows front
carry and back distances,
depth of green, and
distances to any other point
on the green. This feature
also displays major green
contours and greenside
hazards. You can move the
crosshairs using the Joystick
to get a custom distance on the green.

STEP 12
Target List
The Target List displays a list of distances to
hazards, carries and layups located ahead from
your position on the hole. You may use the Joystick
to scroll through the targets manually, or let the
SGX automatically update the list of targets as
you move down the fairway. The Target List also
calculates and displays the “Leaves” distance to
the Center of Green from the highlighted target.

STEP 13
Entering Score For a Hole
At the end of each hole, the scoring option prompts
you to input the number of shots it took to complete
the hole. By default, the SGX displays par for the
hole. Using the Joystick, you can adjust the number
of shots and putts taken. You may also select whether
your shot hit the fairway or missed it (i.e. missed left
or missed right). Select “OK” when finished.

STEP 14
Viewing the Scorecard
You may view your entire
Digital Scorecard on the
SGX during play by turning
it to the left.
Alternatively, you can press
the Info button and select
the “Scoring” option to see
the Scorecard in portrait
view. The Scorecard shows
the Pars and Handicaps for
each hole, plus the scores
you entered. Use the Joystick to highlight and select
any hole you wish to edit.
