How do I update my GolfBuddy Voice 2?
The Voice 2 GPS can be used right out of the box if it has charge. But eventually, you might have to update the course database to get the latest course maps.
For this, you must download the GolfBuddy Pro Course Manager to your Windows PC. You have to register your device and create a new login if you don’t already have one.
The update tool is available on the GolfBuddy website.
Once updated, you can switch it on near the course, and it will automatically recognize the course from its database and arrive at the correct hole. The operation is pretty much intuitive.
Distances
The Voice 2 shows/speaks distances to the front, center, and back of the greens. You can select whether you want the golf buddy voice meters to yards.
In the original Voice, the screen only displayed the distance to the center. You had to toggle through the distances one by one by pressing the Menu button. Now all the distances are displayed on the screen, the distance to the center of the greens being in a larger font.
The hole number and battery information are also displayed above this. Unfortunately, the Voice 2 doesn’t add hazard distances to the yardages it can tell.
