Completed about seven rounds of golf now with V5. Really pleased with results. Counts most shots as expected, apart from the duff shots where you only knock it three yards. That said, it's easy enough to override the suggested score when you finished a putt. The only real gripe I have, it fais to recognise temporary greens, but I guess that is to be expected. You can drag the flag to your desired location, but it's very difficult via the App. It's much easier in you log in via browser. Overall, really pleased at the early price, and the overall performance. Battery usually last about two nine holes games, depending how early you switch the watch on prior to starting a game. Couldn't see it lasting two 18 holes as advertised. Would definitely recommend.

Overall very good GPS watch. When I first started using the watch, there were a few times when it wouldn't register the hit with the appropriate club, but I changed the routine to make sure the sensor touched the strap first and it has worked perfectly since then. The GPS is quite reliable and marks the distances correctly with enough precision. I usually finish the round and still have more than 60% battery left.

I am very impressed by the V5 after 6 rounds. Had a little trouble picking up club tags on my second and third rounds but that seems to have resolved itself. I still have clubs that don't get picked up but it's only one or two per round. I'm shocked at how well it picks up my putts. The app provides much more information than I expected. I previously used Arcos but was turned off by the annual subscription fee. My only wish is that I would like to have Shotscope calculate my (unofficial) handicap in the app so I'm not guessing. I know its a bit of work but many other apps are able to do it.

First of all, I am very satisfied with the new V5. What has happened to me a few times is that the V5 does not indicate the 2nd club you are using. I have also noticed that before you can enter your putts, the V5 is already on the next hole. Of course, these things can also be my fault for registering the putts too late. But for the time being very satisfied.

I have both the V3 and V5 GPS watches, both are superb with the V5 being more stylish and faster.I would recommend both watches as the product is reliable and related app are reliable and give all the stats you need.

I have about 15 rounds in now with the V5 and I am very satisfied with it. The yardage has been consistently accurate and updates quickly. I have only had a few occasions where the V5 didn't pick up my club. My only issue has been when my approach lands close to the green (mostly, when I am long) the V5 puts me on the green and it isn't readily apparent how to back off of the green (on the device) to record a chip.
