Mike Sardee (ID: 000000e715ef056d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/27/2023 Awesome! Thanks James. This has bothered me for years. I use it for golf exactly as you described. Now if you could add a feature that would allow me to start from the green out to a lay-up distance, then start over back to the tee box. Right now, I have to clear measurement then start a new distance. I know, not a big deal, but now that you have spoiled me...
