Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
The Pro XGC is equipped with a large, 2.2-inch high-resolution sunlight-readable screen display. The screen has a backlight so that it can be used in any light conditions. The color screen allows you to download detailed color maps for the easiest to read GPS available. Designed to make your game smarter for fewer strokes, the unique hole up tracking feature gives you a "down the fairway" perspective, for easier and better course management. The Pro XGC is also equipped with a custom green map feature that gives you the distance to any point on the green, as well as course images for each individual green on the course.
The Bushnell Pro XGC GPS is accurate within two yards, offering the best accuracy available for the game--and the same degree of accuracy as any other golf GPS devices on the market. Unlike a laser rangefinder, the Bushnell Pro XGC GPS allows you to determine the distance to objects that are not in your line of sight, providing you with distances to the green that are difficult to get with laser rangefinders. With rangefinders you can overshoot the green, and struggle to hold the rangefinder steady. The Pro XGC GPS gives you immediate feedback so you won't have to worry about holding up play and your concentration can remain on the game.
The Bushnell Yardage Pro XGC allows you to store up to 100 golf courses at a time on one device. A membership to iGolf.com gives you access to the world's largest golf course database, allowing you to download up to 100 courses yearly, that all can be synced to your Pro XGC through a simple USB connection. The Bushnell Yardage Pro XGC offers you the birds eye view of the course so your play can be more deliberate, accurate, and successful.
Using Bushnell Yardage Pro Sync and the iGolf Database:
Bushnell and iGolf have partnered to provide Bushnell Yardage Pro XGC users with the world's largest, most accurate database of GPS course files available. A free membership on iGolf.com enables you to track your handicap, catch up on golf headlines, and find reviews of your favorite course. A paid membership with a low one-year subscription fee allows you download and save up to 100 GPS course files annually.
A one-year membership contract with iGolf allows you to download and save any available golf courses onto your computer to use with the Pro XGC. Since all golf course files are stored on your computer you can easily swap course files on and off the Pro XGC as needed. The currency of the information on the iGolf website is updated regularly with any renovations or changed holes so you have access to the most up to date information possible.
Locate golf courses on the iGolf database using a simple search tool--just enter one or two keywords within the course name to produce a list of results. An advanced search option is available to narrow results further as necessary. After you have located your golf course in the iGolf database, you will see the GPS Enabled area of the screen. The program will let you know if Front/Center/Back measurements, Custom Points with measurements for the hazards on the course, and Course Images for each individual green are available.
Transferring downloaded golf courses to your Pro XGC from your PC is easy. Simply open the Bushnell Sync Application, connect the Pro XGC to the USB port on the computer, and power up the unit. Select the golf course that you want to transfer off of the computer, click send, and you are done.

Customer Reviews
- works like a charm
-battery life is excellent. I'd say I burn about 20% of the battery life for a round of golf.
-the golf course map and the scorecard features are really cool and very useful.Most courses I've played have the map feature. Some do not. At any time during the round you can get a scoring summary (birdies, pars, bogeys, putts etc).
-the contrast on the color screen is excellent. Plus you can change the contrast at any time.
-yardages are right on. A stroke saver.
-real easy to download the courses from the Bushnell website to the unit.
-price is really good for what you get.
I will update my review after I played with it this weekend.
Update: 03/14/2010
Finally able to take it out for a round. The device is accurate. I was using the scoring feature and after I enter my score for each hole, it automatically changes my map for the next hole. It's awesome that it keeps statistics of your game like number of putts, number of pars, bogeys, double bogeys etc. but as soon as you turn it off all that information is gone. It would've been nice if it had a score keeping feature that I could download to my computer for analysis later on.
The device is small enough to fit in your pocket and not be bothered knowing it's there.
Pointing to a custom point on the map is not that great because you can only move the target by up down and sideways and it moves by a fixed scale. I was actually disappointed with it. But all in all it does what it advertises.
Update: 08/08/2010
I have now used the device for about 15 rounds or so. I noticed that the device now no longer gets fully charged, battery life has been noticeably shorter and I'm one of those people who are really careful about not overcharging devices. So I know I took really good care of my GPS unit. The map feature doesn't always work, maybe 1x per round I'll notice that I can't point to a custom point on the map because the pointer does not appear.
Cons: The interface to download courses is a little slow. Be patient when donloading, then check downloads to make sure the course was fully downloaded. For $35/yr you get 100 course downloads (credits), BUT if a course has 27 holes, that counts as 3 credits used. If a course has 18 holes, its only 1 credit.
Overall, I saw the value in this unit over the others. The hole maps, distances to hazards are great, and using the unit was easy. It fits in my pocket without being distracting and battery life seems great.
Of these, the XGC was the only one that worked properly. Read more
