Used mine for the first time on Sunday. Easy to use around the course. Didn’t register all my shots so my scorecard was wrong. Uploading my first round was awkward and had to reset my account but after that is should all be straight forward. On course thhe display was fantastic with accurate yardages and course information if definitely helped me make more educated choices.

I am loving the V5 and it certainly has some improved features compared my previous V3. I have not fully explored or utilised all the functions yet but so far it is proving a perfect golf partner.

Nice watch, great improvements to the V3, clear information, great options, improved data capture, just like having a caddie but without the nagging voice in your ear.

The watch is attractive, and the FMB yardages are bright and easy to read. Hole, par, and time of day, while playing a round, are too small for aging eyes and dimly lit. It would help if they were brighter. The same can be said for bunker and water information. Bring your reading glasses with you!

Context. I'm a 75 year old Senior Golfer playing off 14.7 at time of writing. I upgraded from the V3 model and thus get the added benefit of a map of each hole and the ability to "measure" various distances to any part of the fairway/hole. This is extrememly useful on away courses. As I play with a Seniors section many have different golf watches and frankly there is no difference in distances with all watches. So the Shotscope provides similar data with regard to distances as any other device regardless of cost. HOWEVER when one adds the tags to the clubs and starts seeing feedback re performance of one's clubs over several rounds the information provided is eye-opening, particularly regarding approach shots to the green. For instanc roughly 50% of my approach shots are short of the green and so I bring this into my thinking during current rounds. All in all I'm delighted with the product and definitely recommend it to other golfers.

Pretty simple to set up. Needed to charge out of the box, then update. Then download app and connect. That all went fine. I had an issue after my first round of getting my round to upload. Had to restart watch and delete and re-install the app. Then it uploaded. On the course the watch was pretty good. It missed a few swings, a few puts and chips. Actually we were 14 strokes off. The good news is you can correct this after you upload. Actually if you want correct data you have to fix this. It does take some time to fix. I think it will get better over time. For the price I think this will be a great investment.

I have used the V2 and V3 models of the Shotscope. Both of those worked, but not as well as the V5. The V2 and V3 missed too many shots, and some of their RFID tags failed after a few years. So far the V5 tags haven't had those problems. I like the new display, the longer battery charge time, and the "Last Shot" capability which gives me performance feedback in real time. My only significant issue is that the RFID tag is screwed into the rubber cap. Some clubs come with caps that aren't rubber thereby necessitating a bit of improvisation work. And, sometimes the RFID tags fall out during use which necessitates use of epoxy. But, so far I have enjoyed using the V5 and it does help my game. Highly recommended.
