Garmin - Approach S70 47mm

Garmin S70 + CT10 trackers.

Have an S70 and love it as well. I bought a different strap off Amazon and it came with a rubber plug for the charging port, helps a ton.

Approach S70 is such a great everyday and golf watch. Only ever take mine off to shower and I don’t even need to actually do that since it’s waterproof. It is pricey but I’ve found it very much worth it.

If you just want to use it for golf, S70. If you want to use it for everything, the AWU. If you want better battery life, with a little less of everything but focused on more than golf, Fenix. I have the S70 and AWU. I only use the S70 on the course, and the AWU for everything else simply because I like the focus better on the S70 and I use the garmin sensors. You will probably have to pay a sub for the gold functionality of a S70 on the AWU, so you have to see if it’s worth it.

Garmin S70, love it

I also have a Garmin, use the Approach S70 and you can move the pin around and get exact distances to pin locations as well. Something you have to pay for on most Apple apps I believe. My buddies use range finders and I just move the pin to where I think it is on the map and I’m also +/- 1 yard or bang on with them. It does have some features like being able to read notifications (think the Fenix can send pre made responses) or answer calls on your phone. Spotify built into it so it’s handy if you don’t want to bring your phone to the gym or on a run etc. But because it doesn’t have a ton of features and apps the battery does last a long time. I can get 3-4 full rounds of golf on a charge or it’ll be like two weeks if I don’t golf. On the minimalist side of the Garmin I do appreciate features like sunrise/sunset times and weather. You can just scroll and see data very easily without ads or messing around. But if you want full connectivity from your watch then the Apple is the way to go. Just be prepared to charge every day/other day

I have an S70, and love it for golf. I enjoy the golf features quite a bit. The only issue is that newer courses aren't on there and it's very tricky to get them loaded on. I played Pinehurst 10 in April and it wasn't in the course library. In terms of the fitness stuff, I find that the heart rate monitoring doesn't work great for weightlifting, especially when you're holding on tight. I ended up getting a heart rate monitor strap to wear across my chest for workouts. The sleep monitoring, stress detection, and general overall feedback that I get from the watch is fantastic.

So the TheGrint and Garmin watches do not seem to integrate in anyway I have S70 and have to use them independently of each other.

Another s70 user and it’s amazing. It also does a wonderful job of “gamifying” exercise so it’s really helped me out overall.

Upgraded my s60 to an s70 before this season and love it. I really like the fact that it tells you how far you are from your previous shot which helps with finding wayward balls. The health features are great too. Never had the connection issue myself.

I have the s70, but have used garmin watches in the past. Fenix is a great watch and if you can get it for that price go for it. I had a fenix 5 and it was a beast.

I have a Garmin Approach s70 and love it. My only issue with it is they way it charges. Sweat can get into the contact area and make it hard for the connector to get a good connection. My solution is to rinse it off every time I use it. Since I started doing that, works great.
