What do you use (like)?
General cost?
Any annual or subscription fees?
Best place to purchase?

Thanks so much in advance for your responses!
I have mostly owned the SkyCaddie series, in total 3 different models, but tired of paying the subscription fees. Last year I bought the Garmin SG watch which displays the yardages to the front, middle and back of the green. No subsription charge. If you want more information then that I would recommend the Garmin G6, the latest model, very small but packed with information...it will tell you automatically how far that trap is from where you are standing. No fees. Got one as a birthday present in August love it!!!! These models when new were right around 300.00
