RIDGELAND, Mississippi – SkyGolf, maker of SkyCaddie, the most-trusted rangefinders in golf, announces the SkyCaddie PRO 5X rangefinder was named one of the Best Golf GPS Devices of 2024 by MyGolfSpy.
The PRO 5X heralds a new era of GPS rangefinders with both the advantages of a Tour yardage book and the accuracy of a laser, but much faster to save strokes and lower scores.
“SkyCaddie says the PRO 5X is like “a professional tour book with laser accuracy,” noted MyGolfSpy. “If accuracy, vivid graphics, and a large display are important to you in a GPS, the PRO 5X ticks all the boxes.
Testers noted how “extremely detailed” the courses and holes were. One tester said, “This thing is spot-on for all distances.”
According to the MyGolfSpy expert take, “The SkyCaddie Pro 5X will have you plotting your way around the course like having a tour caddie at your side. The Pro 5X’s views and features will have you pulling the right club with confidence. While it is the size of today’s smartphones, maybe you should put down your phone and focus on your game with the SkyCaddie Pro 5X showing you the way.”
“We’re really thrilled that the team at My Golf Spy recognized the quality and accuracy of the information and data that we provide in our PRO 5X,” said Jacqui Surman, SkyGolf Senior VP and COO. “They also pointed out that, ‘The lowest statewide subscription rate (at just $30 a year) will probably run you less than the 18-hole cart fee at your favorite course. So get some exercise and walk a round to save some coin and pay for your subscription.’ We couldn’t agree more.”
The PRO 5X is becoming popular with competitors on the European Legends Tour, where SkyCaddie is already the official Distance Measuring Device in an official partnership which started in summer 2023. “75% of the Top 20 on the Legends Tour already use a SkyCaddie, and many have now upgraded to the new PRO 5X” added Surman.
“It gives them absolute trust in their yardages. The PRO 5X enables them to select clubs and hit shots with more confidence than with any other rangefinder in golf.”
The SkyCaddie PRO 5X Tourbook was introduced in early 2024, and retails for $399.95 including a 12-month SkyGolf 360 Double Eagle Plan. Available in all quality golf stores and online at www.skygolf.com.
