          most of the decent courses in North Florida already have GPS. The only ones that dont are the private country clubs which I seldom play. I have always wanted a hand held GPS and most of the apps I have seen for my phone are garbage anyways.

          Good Luck to you with your new GPS though

            The courses I play on have the markers. You know the red,blue and white ones. You just wasted money. I went to this lighted par 3 course and shot a 61.

                  Great purchase Jim. I'm an avid golfer myself.

                  I purchased SkyCaddie, http://www.skygolf.com/Default.aspx , a few years back. Definitely took a few strokes off my game.

                          You from Peoria or UofI ? If Peoria, one of the toughest courses about an hour or so North of you....40 bucks for 18 holes with cart and steak dinner....bring your own beer. The Bourne, in Norway, IL

                          The 18-hole Bourne course at the The Bourne Golf Course facility in Marseilles, features 6,355 yards of golf from the longest tees for a par of 72. The course rating is 70.0 and it has a slope rating of 123. Designed by Dick Wherli, the Bourne golf course opened in 1990. Dick Wherli manages the course as the Owner.



                          One of the coolest in Illinois for sure. Tough to shoot a good round there, especially your first time.

                            I use the laser from Brunel (sp).

                            Its a huge help. If you hit the ball straight it doesn't really help. The course markers are fine then +/- for pin placement. But they are huge if you knock it left/right. For years I under estimated my distance if I was wide of the fairway. Even today if I'm right of the 150 I'm thinking hmm maybe 155 but put the laser on it and fvck its 168 or something.

                              bought an god app on my iPhone but seems to be off and drains my battery like a mofo. 24 bucks is a deal might have to get one too.

                              I'm a single digit, and boys I have a huge tip for you... buy a RIFE putter. got one about a year ago and since then I have shot a 74 twice!!! usually Im low 80s, high 70s. no joke I tried ALL the putters, Scotties, 2 balls, heavy putter... blah blah blah, I literally bought about 20 putters in the past 5 years. never liked one as much as my RIFE Aussie black. try it

                                                      I play the Whistle about 5 times a year. One comped and the others 2 bucks. Best course I have played bar none. Toughest also. An 80 player will shoot low 90's if lucky. One key is a good caddy. I try to get the same kid Mike. He has fun with the crew and knows the course well. Beaner, I would bet you would not break triple digits.

                                                        I bought a Rife putter about 2 months ago from a suggestion here. But I'm still using my Ping Answer which I have a serious love/ hate relationship with.
