front, back and center reading issues
on September 29, 2022
Posted by: Rayb
I bought this about 2 weeks ago. I put in the 18 holes of golf and after 9 holes the G12 does not display the back or front green distance. It only shows the middle. Normally when I get to the green it will ask me for my score and that does not even work. I have to manually enter my score and go to setting to go to next hole. It continues to have that problem until I end the round and then enter the 9 holes again.

This unit picks up my golf course in a matter of moments,and apart from checking out the distance to hazards, I don't have to touch it at all.
Very happy indeed.

Potentially this should be very helpful. Could be operator error but haven’t gotten it to work correctly so far.

Worth the money

I got this for Christmas and was able to get out and try it. I played two different courses that the carts had GPS. I regularly compared the two throughout the day. I was really impressed. They were usually within a yard of each other. I couldn’t be more happy with this product.

Very Easy to Use and Accurate

I bought this after deciding I was tired of paying the yearly charge on my SkyCaddie, which I had been using for over 10 years. The Approach G12 gave me all the information I needed as well as allowed me to keep score for later posting to my USGA Handicap. I am very satisfied and would recommend to everyone.

Very unhandy to view
on March 3, 2023

The Approach G12 seems to be accurate, easy to read with nice features. The problem is viewing the golf yardage. Attaches to your belt, so it is very unhandy to take off the belt and then reattach to read yardage on every shot. Very Unhandy

Useful and affordable

Bought the approach g12 a month ago. I love it. However- it should come with a lanyard since it’s designed for one and I also think the users manual could have a little information. Otherwise
Works great and as advertised
