you are going to take your shot. The “Mark New Ball
Location?” screen will display. Select “Mark” by pressing
the Right Key to record your current location and then
take your shot.
When you get to the location where your ball came to
rest, press the Mark Ball button again to record and

screen by selecting “Exit” or choose “Mark” to mark the
distance for another shot.

3.6 Digital Scorecard
3.6.1 Turning on the Scoring Feature
By default, the Digital Scorecard on the SGX is set to OFF.
To turn on the Digital Scorecard from the Main Menu:
1. Scroll down to “Settings” using the Joystick, then press the Right Key for “OK”
2. Navigate to the Scoring icon, then select “OK”
3. Under Scoring preferences, make sure that “Scoring” is checkmarked. If it
is, either press the Joystick or press the Right Key under “Set” to toggle
Scoring to ON.
4. Press the Left Key to save and exit to the previous screen.
Once the Digital Scorecard is activated, the SGX will ask
you if you would like to use the scoring feature before
each round you play.
3.6.2 Using the Scoring Feature During Play
Once activated, whenever you select “Play Golf” or
“Courses” you will be asked if you wish to use scoring
for the round. Three options are provided:
• Yes: Continue Round:
Select if you started a scorecard
for a round, were interrupted during the round, and
want to get back to the round where you left off.
• Yes: Start New Round:
Select if you are starting a new round and wish to maintain a scorecard for the
round.
• No: Skip Scoring:
Select if you don’t want to use the Digital Scorecard for the
round you are playing.
Maintaining your score with the Digital Scorecard is a manual process. In other
words, you need to manually input your scores to the SkyCaddie after you play
each hole. The SkyCaddie does not automatically track your scores.
At the end of each hole, you will be prompted with the Digital Scorecard where
you can input the number of shots it took to complete the hole. You can enter
your total score for each hole by moving the Joystick left/right on the Scorecard
screen (the score will default to par). When you are finished, simly press “Next”
using the Right Key key to continue to the next hole.
Note
If you select “No: Skip Scoring”
the scoring feature for that round;
therefore, the rest of the information in
this section will not apply.

Note
The SGX will only hold scoring data
for the round you are playing while
the device is one, unless you have
signed up for a Membership plan.
If you power off the SGX and turn
it back on during a round, you will
lose that scorecard data. With a
Membership, you will be able to
store 10 rounds on the SGX. Syncing
regularly will allow your rounds to be
stored on ClubSG
BETA
so that you may
free storage space on the SGX.
