Approach S50

If your budget is is the $400 range and you're looking for a golf specific watch, I use the Garmin S50 and I love it.

S70 - 42mm because I love golf...but have been doing a lot more riding, running, swimming, strength training and other stuff.

In the same boat here. Exact same switch and exact same sentiment.

Got an S50 coming from a Galaxy watch 3. Will never go back. It's lighter, battery is 10 days compared to 1, and does everything I actually used the Galaxy for except make/receive calls and honestly that was more a novelty than a useful feature.

If you look at the new S44 or S50, they are great watches, but require a subscription to get both the green map and the high resolution hole maps. It’s 10 bucks a month or $99 a year. I bought an annual subscription when I bought it… But I’m seriously questioning renewing it. I don’t like the idea of paying the entire cost of the watch in 3 years of sub fees. I’m seriously considering switching to an Apple Watch and using The Grint app. I would rather pay that subscription fee for the stat and handicap features. I’m also looking at shot scope watches for the single reason they are subscription free.
