Very interested having just watch Mr Crossfield's video lessons with Game Golf comp winners. Can someone confirm a couple of points. How does it recognise you are chipping and it isn't just a duffed 7 or 8 iron (or whatever club you are hitting) and do you have to tag your putter and do so on every putt?

Re chip vs duff vs full shot. I can't tell the difference between a duff and a chip but it does tell the difference between a full shot and a duff / chip so neither of the latter compromise the full shot stats.

It does give GIR / sand save % and scrambling % though so I guess the insight is via those states.

Re putter, yep, just tag each putt and it will give putt for round / per hole etc (can force a putt to be taken as being off the green when uploading round so stats will be true etc).


EDIT: Doh, too slow. Well done Jake!

Yes you putter has a tag and you need to tag every putt. It's very easily done, though it can be occasionally annoying when you partner gives you a putt in a friendly and tosses your ball back, as you still have to walk over to the flag and tag your shot!

I just tag it where I am and sort any oddities out when I review the round

I am using one of the spare tags for anything which isn't a full shot. I just keep it in my pocket and use it when the time comes.

I dont get why you would do that, check your stats you will quite clearly see that it discounts short shots?

It still shows them as far as I can see. Maybe the figures discard them but this is the way I like to do it.

Used the iPhone app to do my round this morning. It's pretty tedious doing it on the phone. Also played my worse golf in a long time.

Got my unit after I got home, unit is charging tags into the clubs ready to go

Just got the App for Android, is it pretty much the same, but without the "tagging" of clubs?

 

[Paperboy]

Just press the plus button, then select the club. I imagine it's a lot slower and annoying.

Do you tag again with your spare after a duff and edit later, or do you only use this to register special shots?

Anyone got an old cheap spare laptop/tablet with anything other than XP on it so I can join in please

 

[Paperboy]

Robin no luck on eBay or gum tree etc?

I just use it for chips and punch shots.

I'm confused. Why do you need a spare tag for chips, pitches and punch shots. Doesn't it get registered if you use a PW, SW or LW for anything other than full shots. Doesn't this get covered by my question about the system differentiating between a chip/duff with a 7 iron around the green and skewing the numbers

Yes it does, but Martin70 prefers to use a spare tag, that's the flexibility of Game Golf that you can do this, either way works😃

Had my first experience with it today, thought you could tag any part of the device. So didn't tag a shot until the 10th 😡

So trying to sign off the 9 holes I've got tagged but keeps saying 'Error, please try again later', anyone else have this if so any tips?

I have had that before...normally I just log out, close my browser, and then go in again....magically it always seems to be signed

Quick question. What happens to the tags in the grips when you want to re-grip the clubs. How easy are they to remove and how permanent are they on the club. No danger it'll fall off and loiter in the base of the bag?

No trouble to get them off Homer. Can be a little bit tough to screw them in 100% I found but again no issue really.

Also I found replacement tags on ebay if ever needed and they are 3 quid each.

I've had my clubs regripped and during winter tried another set of clubs, tags have moved 4-5 times and had no issues at all with tags.
