I have picked up some from courses when I lived in Phoenix, AZ.

Now I just use my Sky Caddie. It's so nice. No more searching for sprinkler heads and no more guessing.

Nope - sky caddie all the way.

However - I would be interested if they sold books that had very detailed layouts of the greens. Slope, grain, dimensions, etc would be very nice to have. I keep meaning to start making my own "green slope" book since I have a hard time remembering the nuances of all the different courses that I play.

There is one course where the overall slope of the land is one direction and it really makes reading the greens very tricky. They look level or sloped relative to the terrain but since the terrain is sloped very gradually to begin with, it's easy to completely mis-read some putts. Unfortunately lack of time and general laziness is preventing me from doing the work to make a detailed book to help myself with this...

Like most, I only have bought yardage books for playing courses I have never played before. I will keep and use them until I have played the course enough where I don't need it

If there was one for the course that I play at, I would have one.
