Jeremy,
I only use the google maps method. I try the landmark here method today.

Yeah, google maps works good for static points.
The real use I can see for this thing is being able to tell relatively exact yardage from where you're currently at to the pin/green/whatever. If I'm standing in a fairway...how much further do I have to the front of the green?
While the method of inputing lat/long for the front/back of the greens works great...testing the accuracy of the gps by inputing a landmark and then moving away from it seems like a valid test case. If the number changes sporadically from the same spot, this questions the accuracy of the gps no matter how you're using it.
Perhaps there is something funky going on with the landmark here function. Either way, it shouldn't affect what I'm trying to do. Using google maps and putting the landmarks in manually should work great.
Wonder how much the battery gets drained after 5 hours of gps usage
Again man...thanks for the app. It's awesome. I'd still like a way to export/import lat/long
