Well the V3 arrived yesterday, and I was able to run over and play 9 last night. As you all had been helpful for me, I figured I would give my first impressions.
Set-up went straight through, only small hiccup was the original Bluetooth connection to my phone after entering the code, the app seemed to hang. Closed the App restarted it, ran the procedure again had no issues. Completed the firmware update with no hiccups. Subscribed to all my local courses and had 8 course updates, which all loaded fine. Installed the tags and to the course I went. As other people had said the first time connecting to GPS was slow. I was only using the L1 mode. I might change it to L1+L5 next time just to see.
The only problem with shot tracking, was the person taking shots. The only shot it missed was a 7i little punch shot that happened to hit a tree and come to land about 6 yards from where the shot took place
Data was successfully recorded even when user error crept in. At one point I walked across a green and it went into Pin Collect mode, even though I had a little chip left that I had bounced over the green. Couldn't immediately figure out how to get out of Pin Collect mode (Found it later), and collected the pin standing about 10 yards off. I moved the watch back to the hole I was on, completed the hole as normal and at the end of the hole stood over the Pin and went into the Menu and chose the Pin Collect option again and completed it. Was expecting this to be a disaster when going back to review the round and was pleasantly surprised that the data was actual perfect.
All in all, device works as expected for me. I was making sure not to necessarily tap the sensor to the watch band, but before taking any practice swings just flexing my wrist so that the tags would get relatively close to the band, then started the routine.
It fits well on the wrist. I didn't have a problem seeing the screen or anything on the course. The button lock feature, is nice but I may turn it off if I don't have any problems with the buttons, as having to unlock the watch to be able to get to the Hazard view was a little annoying, but not overly so. All in all I am happy with what it did for me, and not having to fiddle with my phone to see GPS info for every shot was pretty nice.
