Garmin Approach S10, Lightweight GPS Golf Watch, Granite Blue

I had been looking at these, but not too much as I have a rangefinder. Also this is available on the Apple Watch right?Then I played with a guy Franz he had this watch and was using it. It looked simple to use.I saw it here on Amazon for $99.99, I researched it and figured why not try it.Well worth it! The yardage constantly updates, no need to scope it. It also has yardages to hazards and also lay ups.A range finder won’t do that. Plus this measures your shots and also keeps score if you want.It doesn’t have a touch screen like the specs say. That’s fine by me. I prefer 4 simple buttons.I did try a few of the watch apps, they were not worth the trouble. This is simple and automatic.It updates the satellites and lets you choose your course where you are. It even changes the holes as you move to a new tee box.I really really like this watch. You can also wear it just for a watch. It shows the time in 12 or 24 hour mode.The distance can be yards or meters.It shows the date or sun up and sun down times.The colors. I got the blue originally thinking it was Navy. It’s a gray blue or blue gray color. A lot of dark gray in the color.The gray is a light gray, called powder gray.I prefer the black. Nice and dark. Navy would have been nice as well.Lastly the display is reversible black numbers on a white background or white number on a black background. Very easy to read, even for an old man. Easy to see in sunlight. You can also change the language on the watch if needed.Just buy it already.

This Garmin S10 watch is something else!  I was a laser rangefinder addict, and I will be retiring it soon. Now, I'm a numbers guy, it's in my blood. I shoot distances every where from 300 to 10 yards in. It boarders on absurd. I've used the watch to try and break this habit, and it has. I've had it for 2 months, and used it in tandem with my rangefinder, because I just didn't trust it. Well, my last round, I left the rangefinder in my car on purpose. I played strictly with the watch and had a great round. This watch has a very useful feature that is not advertised. It will measure your distance from anywhere with any club, from point a to point b. Read the instructions, it has this feature, and no rangefinder can do that. I now know the average distances with most of my clubs. It really surprised me how off I was. This feature alone makes it well worth the price. I don't keep score on it, so I have that feature set to off. I use the Garmin app for that or any of the other umpteen scoring apps installed on my phone. Well, it was a great purchase for me, it broke me of a bad habit. It's also very inexpensive compared to a name brand laser. Now, from 50 yards in, you can see the pin, and you will know the numbers to front, middle and back and can add or subtract a few yards to get the distance just about spot on. Don't worry, it's very accurate as well. A yard or two difference from my rangefinder. If you need to be that exact, carry the rangefinder too. I'm not Phil, and I'm not that accurate, where I need an exact distance, within a couple of yards is fine for me. I really like it, and have had zero problems with it in the last two months and about 10 rounds. I wear it as a regular watch too. The extra bands in different colors are also on Amazon. It's the same case on the outside as the Garmin Forerunner 35, and lots of band styles and colors for it. Ive only needed to charge it 4 times. Battery life is great. I also connected it to my Apple iMac computer with the included USB charging cable to upgrade the firmware, not sure it was even necessary. Garmin Express is the computer app I installed on my computer to do the update. hope this helps anyone on the fence about buying it.

I normally use a free app on my android phone but it is cumbersome to use because I constantly have to wake up the phone and get past the lock screen on almost every shot. When I saw my league playing partner simply look at his wrist to get yardage, that's when I became interested in the Garmin. As it turns out the Approach S10 is not the most feature rich Garmin model. It is not an activity tracker and does not have Bluetooth to automatically pair with a phone and app. This is OK as it is not the most expensive model either. I am mainly interested in yardage and it does that well. Also gives layup yardage as well as hazards.Accuracy seems to be good as it measures closely with course yardages. It des have a quirk though. One course I play has #1 Tee box located near #9 green. The Garmin thinks I am on #9 when actually teeing off on #1. Hole location can be manually adjusted and, once done, the Garmin has no trouble keeping track of your hole position.As mentioned, the S10 doesn't have Bluetooth capability and therefore, does not automatically pair with your phone. There is a setting to keep track of your score however, and you can manually upload scores using a USB connection to a computer. I have not used and figured out this feature yet but I have updated software on the device using this connection method. It requires you to download and install software called Garmin Express and create a device account to use these on-line features.All in all, I would recommend the Garmin Approach S10 if you are mainly interested in shot yardage at a glance like I am. If you want more advanced features like activity tracking, auto pairing, color screen, etc. You will want to research other models.

I previously had a high end touch screen garmin that did everything except make my coffee but it gave up the ghost while on a golf trip. Honestly, being a high handicaper, most of the functions were over my head.This one is simply easier to use and gives me everything I need. The gps readings are not always accurate, sometimes being 5 to 10 yards out when compared to a scope

Mi sto divertendo molto sui campi golf con questo Garmin!!
