Good Golf Watch that could be great
on August 22, 2024
Posted by: Brion
I bought this watch a few months before gold season to get familiar with it. I love the near two weeks of battery life for most weeks. I was being misled initially on the golf course for remaining distance because it was showing meters and not yards. I find that it reports steps much more conservatively compared to FitBit, that I have used for 8 years, but I can just deal with adding 30 to 40% more steps than it shows. It seems to get fooled by steps on gym equipment. See 9,347 steps in picture, compared with 14,053 on my FitBit. I do wish it showed remaining battery life in the phone app because the numbers are small on the watch face and require me to put on reading glasses to make them out and often when I check, the minute hand is obscuring the battery life numbers. But those are minor issues and the watch generally has been very good. If there is one thing I would like improved most of all, it is recognizing when I have left the green on a hole so it would automatically switch to the next hole or realize my round has finished because I am no longer at the golf course. I have found the watch still showing the last hole hours after I am home from golfing because I was distracted and forgot to end the round on the watch.

S62 has been a great addition to my golf

I had my S62 for a couple of years and not had any problems with it. Using it for golf the distances seem correct and stats. Also, the summary afterwards is beneficial to any golfer.

Not so hot

This watch is way too many complicated features that lead you down rabbit holes. Not user friendly.
Yardage doesn’t agree with my other Garmin watch and the golf cart screen and my phone app. Sorry I bought it. I would return it but it’s too late.
