Features:

• Preloaded with Available Courses
  Auto Play eliminates the downloading process by preloading all available courses. However, because new courses are continually being added, you can update your course list any time by registering a free membership.
• Distance Calculator
  By using Sonocaddie's Mark function you will have a quick and precise yardage in your hand. Simply press one button after taking the shot, then walk to the landed ball and you will see the result. The Mark function, of course, may not only be used for the driver but for every other club as well. It really provides you with an excellent tool to know your distance for every club you use.
• Personalized Course Information
  You can make changes or corrections to the reference points right on the spot. You may also change the given course information and add or delete some of the reference points as the course may change over time.
• Green View
  By providing two additional coordinates other than the distance of the front, center, and back of the green, the yardage will change up and down continually until you find your ideal spot. This powerful technology gives you a better chance to choose any point as the perfect landing zone and turn your shot into a beautiful landing. Sonocaddie can give you all the critical information you need and help you swing with confidence.
• Automatic Course Finder
  A powerful and convenient search engine in Golf GPS, Automatic Course Finder can automatically find and list all the courses within a range from 5 miles to 50 miles. That means you can locate your course right on the spot and don't have to go through all the courses in your device.

This unit is advertised as auto hole advance. It only does it on an average of 2 holes per round of golf, no pattern to it, just at random. Distances ore off when compared to yardage markers and other brands of Golf GPS units ( Sky Caddy, Golf Buddy, etc.). Customer service replies are only after multiple requests and their final response was to send it to them and they would fix it or replace it. Not satisfied with unit at all.

Sonocaddie is a good device but it's not what The picture shows. There is no fairway detail, which I wanted. If you don't need this than it is a good buy.

This review is from: Sonocaddie Auto Play Golf GPS (Sports)

After an extensive online search for a golf GPS I decided on the sonocaddie auto. The unit arrived in an extremely timely manner and was as advertised. I was anxious to review the list of preloaded courses and was pleasantly supprised to find the courses I have played in the past were indeed already loaded with the exception of one. The download process for the one missing course was simple and the instructions were easy to follow, course loaded. I also checked the availability of courses I have played out of my local area and they were also preloaded.

Unfortunately I have only had the chance to play one round of golf since I received my unit. Once at the course I turned on the unit while changing shoes in the parking lot and by the time I arrived at the first tee the unit was able to identify the course and hole. The auto feature seemed to be able to track which hole I was playing with little difficulty. The course I was playing has a gps unit mounted on each of their carts so I was able to cross check the yardage and found it to be right on 99% of the time. The rare occasion when the yardages differed the discrepancy was only by a yard or two at the most. For a high handicapper like myself that's pretty darn close.

When I registered my unit with Sonocaddie I opted for just the basic plan. I do plan on upgrading my membership to take advantage of the scorecard feature.

I am pleased with my purchase and find dealing with Amazon to be a positive experience.

For the casual golfer who only needs to know how far to the hole this unit is what the doctor ordered. I would recommed this to the budget minded golfer out there.
