Summary: "GolfBuddy World Platinum Disappoints"
The Golf Buddy World Platinum is a slick, sleek product that has lots of promise. The large screen display was easy to read, even in bright sunlight.
My disappointment was in the form of technical service response (I left two messages in mid-Aug and have yet to receive a reply) and the actual number of courses with full hole layouts. The ads claim thousands of courses, my experience did not bear that out.
My home course in Maryland was not a full hole layout so I had an expensive GPS that only gave me the features of a much less expensive GPS. Very few of the courses nearby were full hole and most of the Hilton Head Island courses were also not the full hole layout.
I returned the Golf Buddy and purchased a Garmin Approach G3. Not quite as sleek as the Golf Buddy BUT all the courses loaded are full hole layouts.

Summary: "Golf Buddy World Platinum GPS Range Finder"
Overall I like this GPS, but the battery life is too short. I can't get through 36 holes on one charge. That is disappointing. My previous GPS could get through well over 36 holes.
