Is there a way to make my SG3 "recognized" as a USB device? I get the message "unrecognized USB device" when I plug it in. I'm running Vista Home Premium. I have downloaded the latest version of the download manager as well..

Wehn I go into USB devices I do see the "unrecognized device" but then for everything I do still doesn' work? :(

Does the software that came with it include any drivers? Try a different USB port as well. If it is unrecognized, Vista should know to check the internet for drivers for it.

If you're using the front USB ports, I'd strongly recommend trying those on the back of your computer, directly connected to the mainboard. For some reason, many front USB ports tend to under-deliver voltage.

I spoke with the customer rep. and he is shipping out a new one to swap out with mine..he said that older versions of the SG3 may not run correctly on Vista..so hopefully that settles that.

I have to say the the folks at SkyGolf/SkyCaddie are legit. They cross shipped me a brand new SG3. I guess there's a problem with older SG3's and newer computers (I'm running Vista). The SG3 is running perfect. Kudos to SkyGolf.

      Yikes! Colin Morikawa withdraws on 11th tee after the practice swing made his lower back twinge.

      Short Game Chef (Parker McLachlin) Short Game Videos

      My flop shots are 6-7° down (AoA). Does that answer it? 😄  The longer answer is… You have to be able to do both shots.

      I hope you don't mind me raising this one from the dead. I got shortgamechef's video access thing for a few months in 2024. I watched his yip fix videos (the general gist is similar to the first video above, but with a lot more detail) and it made a lot of sense. I was working on it in my backyard off a mat for a while and my yippy thing was mostly gone. Aside from anything else, the flop shot using that technique is so easy and controllable. But I got onto a golf course for the first time of the year and found myself by the green on a downslope with the ball sitting down a little in the rough and I was, not to put too fine a point on it, f***ed. Shallow is all well and good from a good flat lie and I understand it, but you can't make that your be all and end all. I still don't know if it's a good idea to use steep all the time or just when you need to. I have a hard enough time with one technique, let alone too.  Just got a pitching skillest lesson with Erik and unless I misunderstood things some, he wants me a bit steeper. @iacas - where do you fall on the steep vs shallow argument and how do you vary it according to need?
