What I've learned from 6 rounds with Arccos..

[Nutsmacker]

I wish you had contacted me first, I would have sold you my arrcos 360 for 100 bucks.  I simply can't deal with it while I am playing golf.  I have to constantly be messing around with my phone to get it to work.  No thanks...if anyone wants these things, let me know.  They are for sale and barely used.

really?

I don't even take my phone out of my pocket the entire round.   Just have to go back and add a few putts when its over.   It never misses anything except a putt for me.  
just delete the app and re-download it.   and make sure you're phone is in your front pocket.  should be no problem.

That's really odd, like @lastings, I get it started, and leave it in my pocket the entire round and it picks up pretty much everything except the occasional tap in putt that I go back and add.  If I have to wait on a tee box, I might go back and check the previous holes to be sure it gets my first putt distance pretty close and make sure everything else looks right, but at most I look at my phone 3-5 times during a round.

Maybe I will try it again.  I didn't like that I had to download golf courses on my phone and it seemed like if I didn't hit a button that it wouldn't log which club I hit.  I don't understand why I need to download a golf course.  There are thousands of free apps that just use your location to figure out the course you are at.

you don't need to download a golf course.   Maybe they've made a lot of updates between when you used it and this year.  But, I've never downloaded a course.   just go to the course, and when you're on the tee hit start round.

Maybe so.  Like I said, I tried it last year and I gave up real quick.  I had to pick the course I was at, download the golf course info, and the thing never seemed to log the club.  I gave up real quick and thought this was a total ripoff.
