1.6 Benefits of SkyPlayer Club Membership
During registration of your SkyCaddie, you’ll be given the option to select an annual membership plan
designed to fit how many courses you play. You can significantly increase the value of your SkyCaddie
with these member benefits for a small yearly fee:
• OnlineCourseStorage. CaddieSync™ provides safe storage and easy access to courses obtained
through our website. Your courses are managed and stored on our servers as Favorites, so you do
not have to maintain files on your computer. Additionally, you can use any compatible computer in
the world to access your Favorites.
• EasyWebsiteAccess. The Sync process within CaddieSync links your SkyCaddie to our website
so that you can easily add courses to your SkyCaddie or update your software as new updates are
available. This was formerly called “DirectConnect”
• SkyCourses
®
. SkyCourses are golf courses that have been mapped for use with the SkyCaddie and
contain unique information on each course layout. Each membership plan provides different levels
of SkyCourse access and storage in CaddieSync. Thousands of published SkyCourses are available
online, and we keep the SkyCourses up-to-date for you. Our SkyCourse library is growing daily.
SkyCourses are either Published or Unpublished:
• Published SkyCourses are golf courses that can be accessed with purchase of a Membership
Plan. The quality of each published SkyCourse is rated on our website as follows:
– Four Star: recorded by one of our SkyGolf GPS professionals; contains information on up to
40 targets per hole plus an IntelliGreen.
– Three Star: professionally recorded prior to implementation of the IntelliGreen feature; does
not include IntelliGreen graphics.
– Two Star/One Star: recorded by other members of the SkyCaddie community that have chosen
to share their personal courses.
• Unpublished SkyCourses are golf courses created by you using your SkyCaddie. These are
courses that only you can access and play with; they are not viewable by any other SkyCaddie
users unless you choose to submit your Unpublished SkyCourses to SkyGolf. Our database is
growing daily through the efforts of SkyGolf professionals and SkyCaddie members.
• ShareCourseswithOtherUsers.Members can submit courses they have created with the SkyCaddie
to us to share with other members. The more members share, the more courses everyone will have
access to.
• IntelliGreen
®
. IntelliGreen graphics are part of our exclusive, professional 4-star SkyCourses. They
provide an eagle’s eye view of the green, with an indicator representing a direct line-of-play from
wherever you are on the course.
• TheftDeterrent. Registering the SkyCaddie’s Electronic Serial Number (ESN) deters theft by protecting
your investment from unauthorized use. If your SkyCaddie is lost or stolen, contact SkyGolf so that
we can flag your ESN as “lost” or “stolen” to prevent unauthorized use.
• “OwnedBy”Screen. This screen allows SkyCaddie personalization.
• OnlineSupport,SoftwareUpdates,andUpgrades. SkyCaddie software is automatically checked for
upgrades and updated when you do a Sync (formerly “DirectConnect”).
1.7 Downloading Courses to Your SkyCaddie
As defined above, SkyCourses are golf courses that have been recorded for use with the SkyCaddie and
contain unique information on each course layout. Thousands of published SkyCourses are available online at
the SkyGolf website for you to download to your SkyCaddie. Once you have installed CaddieSync and selected
a Membership Plan, you will have access to our rapidly growing database of professionally mapped courses.
To search and download courses to your SkyCaddie, connect your SkyCaddie to your computer using the
supplied cable, then launch CaddieSync. When the welcome page comes up, turn on your SkyCaddie and click
on the “Sync” button on CaddieSync to log in. Click on “Courses” in CaddieSync to search for SkyCourses.
