Very nice watch the garmin. But very xpnsv 🙁
GPS, as if play isn't slow enough, 90% of golfer don't know how far they hit each club, yet spend forever checking yardage and fiddling about deciding on clubs, then come up 20-30 yard's short, and so it starts again, ridiculous
I have the Tag Heuer Connected E3 watch. It’s a lot cheaper than the Tag Golf watch by nearly £700, but has the same operating system and Golf app/features that the Tag Golf watch has. Also looks great to wear away from the course. Even the person in the Tag Heuer shop said the Golf watch is a bit of a gimmick as the standard watches are exactly the same and it’s really only the bezel that’s different as the golf one has numbers 1-18 on it.
Joel, although the Garmin golf watches don’t come with the CT10 sensors that go in the end of your grip (like ShotScope), it would have been good to mention that they are available at an extra cost. I use them with a Garmin Venu, which is a much cheaper watch and not quite the level of golf info on it, but keeps score, and tracks shots so you get all the stats you need for a reasonable price (oh, and Garmin pay on the watch is very handy at times, plus all the other health/sport tracking if you’re into it)
Should’ve had the apple ultra watch in there too. It’s dual gps system makes for a very good golf watch
i am trying to decide between the Garmin s70 / Garmin Epix Gen 2 / Garmin Fenix 7x sapphire …….. all amazing watches for everything including golfing….just keeping an eye open for a sale on one of them……..the Epix and the s70 are the front runners in my opinion….cheers from Canada
14 Garmin sensors are an extra £200, wow.
The game would be better without all this expensive and distracting tech. If you never use it, you learn to picture what each club in your bag will do.
