Keep Track. And Keep Score
With more sensors to improve detection accuracy, AutoShot game tracking automatically detects¹ along the fairway and records distances for post-game analysis on Garmin Connect.
Know Your Course
Get precise distances to each location on the course, as well as PlaysLike Distance, which adjusts yardages to account for uphill and downhill shots so you can select the best club for the situation. And with Touch Targeting, you can touch any point on the map for precise measurement to that exact spot — including fairway, sand traps, water hazards and more.
Reach the Pin
Green View gives you each green’s true shape from wherever you are on the course, and it allows you to manually drag-and-drop the pin into the correct location for the day for greater accuracy. PinPointer even tells you the direction to the pin when you have a blind shot.
Know Your Swing
Pair your Approach S60 with the Garmin TruSwing golf swing analyzer to get swing training, including swing speed and club path angles. By understanding what your swing is doing and how it impacts ball flight, you can improve the consistency of each swing.

Sorry but very bad experience for me.
One thing I don't like is the size--a bit too large for my wrist, so it's not exactly a "fashion" watch that you can wear off the course. Still not sure how to see my steps/activity...will have to figure it out on my own or Google how to do it!

Ottimo
1. La pantalla estaba desalineado, poco pero suficiente para notarlo.
2. Las distancias de GPS para el golf estaban mal calibradas o algo estaba mal con el reloj, porque marcaba más o menos 10% menos que la realidad.
La entrega tardo más de lo esperado.
No vuelvo a comprar un producto Garmin si no me garantizan calidad.
