Izzo Swami Golf GPS Rangefinder - Color Display & Scorekeeper

The Izzo Swami 6000 is an outstanding handheld golf GPS device that significantly enhances on-course performance. Preloaded with over 38,000 global course maps, it offers precise distances to the front, center, and back of greens, as well as layup and carry distances to hazards and doglegs. The vibrant 2-inch color display is easy to read, and the integrated magnet allows for convenient attachment to golf carts. With a remarkable 16-hour battery life, the Swami 6000 ensures reliability throughout multiple rounds. Its user-friendly interface and accurate measurements make it an invaluable tool for golfers seeking to improve their game.

The small size is great. Has a strong magnet which it makes it easy to attach to the golf cart. I like knowing the 3 distances for the green (front, middle, back). I purchased separately a zipper case for it.

It’s a good finder, but it came with a bad battery. It will not last 18 holes.

I'm a 69 yr. old avid golfer. Wanted to get more accuracy with the distances I had to hit, so I spent $349 on a laser range finder a couple years ago. This thing had the slope reader, everything! But what they don't tell you when you buy one....you better have a pretty steady hand when using it, or at least be able to brace yourself against something when you use it! Otherwise the "cross-hairs" bounce around like a jack rabbit! Was more frustrating than anything else. Great brand name - lousy performance! So I bought the Swami 6000 by IZZO. Imagine that - technology that does what it says it will, for UNDER $100.00! Easy to use, with 40,000 courses in their library, and it's magnetic so it sits right on the frame of my golf cart. When I get to my ball it tells me the distance to the green front - middle - and back! That's all I wanted it to do. Sure I could keep my score on it, and I could ever find out the "hazards" on each hole, but I'm playing courses I've played dozens of times before, all I need is "how far to get home?" Keep it up IZZO!!

2ND UPDATE - COMPLETELY FROZE UP AFTER TWO HOLES! ACTUALLY NOT EVEN HALFWAY THROUGH THE SECOND. NO WAY TO RESET OR EVEN TURN OFF! JUST HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THE BATTERY DIES. i REALLY HOPED THIS WOULDN'T BE ANOTHER FLAWED PRODUCT BUT I WAS WRONG. MY LAST REVIEW SAID I WAS GOING TO SELL ON EBAY - NOW IT'S COMPLETELY JUNK! NOTE THE REVIEWS, THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM! IF YOU GO TO THE IZZO SITE NOTE THAT ALL THE REVIEWS ARE CHERRY-PICKED, NOTHING LESS THAN A FOUR-STAR. IZZO WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS! (Initial review when new) Purchased this to replace my Golf Buddy. The good news is that it pulls up the correct course quickly and it's very accurate. There are two problems - one is that if you want to keep score you need to stay on the green of the hole you just played to enter that information. If you leave the green and approach the next tee box before you record your score it switches to the next hole and there is no way to go back. That's a real problem if you're being rushed or are in the habit of recording your score while waiting to hit on the next tee. I have never been able to complete a round without having to abandon the scoring feature and other players get really peeved if you stand there fiddling with your rangefinder. The other problem is that you can set the device to automatically turn off after about half an hour or stay on. Even though we're moving constantly and I'm checking distances or recording scores it seems to turn off after a couple of hours after setting the device to stay on. UPDATE #1: I changed this to a one-star rating because 1) the third time I used it I couldn't pull up the course I was on (major course in Denver suburb!). I updated the firmware at Izzo suggestion 2) Not being able to enter score once you leave green is a killer. Izzo response was "once you're 40+ yards down fairway you should be able to switch back and enter score"! Are you kidding? I'm focused on my next shot at that point! and 3) It keeps turning off after about six or seven holes. Gonna sell on Ebay.

This is a replacement for my much more expensive Garmin that died. I love the ease of use. So far every course I’ve played has popped right up. The large font size is great, much easier to read than my Garmin. I’ve been comparing the distances shown to the readings from playing partners devices, and it is very consistent. Really good value for the money. I did buy the suggested case to hold it and am glad I did.

I bought my husband this four years ago for Christmas. He has enjoyed it but last week it quit working. We realized that it is out of warranty but he contacted Izzo to see if it just needed a reboot to get it going. The lady gave him instructions which he followed but it didn't work so he contacted them again. She asked for specific info and he gave it to her. No complaining, no nastiness, just asking for help realizing there may not be a solution due to the four year thing. He only plays once a week so it hasn't been over used. After giving the info, no response. Nothing Now we have been blocked from their site. They apparently blocked our IP address. So he has no way to get on and access the help they were offering or even contact them. Very disappointing customer service. Again he was polite...no reason to block us. Just explain that it is out of warranty and there's nothing more they can do. We may have to buy a new GPS for him, but it certainly won't be an Izzo.

it has great interface with accurate distance readings. extremely easy to use. magnet is strong. battery lasted very well through long rounds. unfortunately the battery did not last long term, purchased about a year ago after i lost my phantom and decided to try this. as of today, i will plug it in and it says 100% charged but when its actually on it the charge shows probably 40%. died on the 8th hole after having it charging for the night and trying to give it one last go. definitely a great golf gps but quality control issues with the battery make it unreliable and too risky to buy in my opinion.

Battery has poor recharge

Received earlier than the promised date, looks solid and good quality. Haven't used but I think it won't disappoint me.

The first unit I received did not work. From that experience I learnt the following: #1. Amazon’s return policy is simple/easy to follow and worked seamlessly…..full marks. #2. Izzy Support was extremely professional, and although they were unable to repair the unit, they were great to work with…..full marks. The replacement unit was received in record time. The replacement unit is working well. It is simple to use and I enjoy the magnetic function that allows the operator to mount the gps unit where it is easy to view. I did hear about users who left the unit on the cart when leaving in a hurry. I have addressed this concern by using a storage case. I use an old eye glass case, that I put in the cart, with the belief that I will see the empty case and remember to grab the gps unit. We will see. I have found that the batteries last two full rounds before recharging.

Compre el articulo y muy bien, salvo que no trae el campo donde normalmente juego. Les escribi para darles toda la info del campo y despues de varios intentos me respondieron que seguramente saldria en una proxima actualizacion. A 2 años de distancia sigue sin aparecer el campo cuando muchas otros dispositivos de otras marcas ya lo traen, satisfecho con el producto decepcionado con la Empresa.
