Played this past weekend with a buddy who had a range finder. It was always within 2-4yrds of the finder. Never tested inside 100yrds because that part of the game is blended with art. After a little 4 wheel driving for a shanked ball it only slid down the golf cart frame a few inches. Overall a fun decent product. Haven’t compared it to any other “golf” speaker. Also agree the app isn’t user friendly but after a round it starts to make more sense. Thanks for doing the review.
That button is what is needed to make the speaker tell you the yardage from the speaker. So you dan put it in your pocket or buy a belt attachment for the button. Or leave it on the speaker. But the speaker does it all. The button again will make the speaker tell you you are 150 yards or what ever from the middle and so on.
So the phone is what is “marking” the GPS yardage. The button just activates the speaker. I never walk up to a T-Box with my phone, I leave that in the cart. So wherever the cart stops is where the yardage will be from. Thank for your video. Very informative
Mine won’t charge either. Sent it back to bushnell still under warranty. They say the micro usb is broke and will not fix it or replace it. Offered me 25% discount on a new one. I’m calling BS. There are at least 10 pages of negative reviews on their own site referencing this exact issue. My stuff is not abused or used hard. I’ve never had a USB port fail on anything I’ve ever owned. Won’t be supporting them in the future.

Glad you enjoyed.
Had mine 2 years and never found it to be that far off within a 100yrds.
Love my wingman
Can this device measure in meters and does it have Ceres golf Course in South Africa as a loaded course?
Just got the Bushnell GPS Speaker for my BDay. Does the removable button act as the gps or is it off the phone.

@@kbolecho the app will give a visual if used
I lost my remote if I want to turn it on, it Hass to be connected to a charger. Do you know how to fix it?
You can buy a new remote any sync it up to the speaker
How do I keep it from ringing through the speaker when my iPhone is on silent?
turn off ringer
Where is the distance from? Is it measuring from the button, speaker or phone?
Speaker. The button just forces the speaker to announce a yardage
@@markthegolfaddict9051 so if you're playing a course that is card path only you need to take your speaker with you to your ball?
@Marty Seed yes. Or else you would get a yardage from where the speaker located not your ball.
@@musiccalgary the button is removable and can be carried in your pocket
My wingman is not charging do you have any suggestions because I charged it for two days and like it literally stays on read it did not turn green😮
I'd try a new charger. Also the small remote does not charge. It takes a battery
Mine wasn’t charging either. It was still under warranty, after talking with Bushnell they sent me a packing slip to send back.

Wait until it quits working at all, and you try to get Bushnell customer support 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
I sold mine. Wasn’t a big fan. Bought some generic speaker
