Garmin Approach S12, Easy-to-Use GPS Golf Watch, 42k+ Preloaded Courses, Black, 010-02472-00

I’ve been golfing a long time. I don’t know why I never had one of these gps golf watches? It’s rare I would say “it’s a game changer” for things. But I gotta say after researching golf watches and come upon this one in particular I’m sold. To the S12 now, I’m not a stranger to electronic devices we all have them. However on a golf course while playing it needs to be: easy to use and navigate through functions, easy to read in rainy or sunny conditions with a lot of glare, accuracy is key also looks and feels good wearing it along with tough durability. Definitely all of these things and more. I played my first 18 (pouring rain first 4 holes) with it after getting accustomed to the functions and being familiar enough to actually use it. I was thrilled with the performance and ease of use. Funny I only somewhat generally knew how far I was hitting each club.. now I know for sure. Big help cutting scores just that alone. On only two holes I noticed it didn’t move to next.. so I manually kicked over to next hole pretty easily. On another that was close to last green as well.. just walked over to tee box and it flipped automatically easy peezy. If that’s a negative thing I’ll take that all day every day no problems here. All in all I’m super happy with the S12 from seller to fast delivery to actual accuracy and simplicity of use it’s been a very good purchase. Hopefully I get even better at using it’s functions and that it holds up for a long time. In closing you can spend a lot more on a gps golf watch for sure. So far this seems to be well worth the money. I can pretty much guarantee you won’t have to ask anyone for yardages again. It does enough and well enough in my book not to be a major distraction and balances high tech and useful features to up your game and joy of playing golf.

This has replaced a Bulova golf watch that I used for at least 10 years but suddenly quit working. It has more features. Most of which? I won't use. It's a very good basic golf watch. First thing I noticed is that the battery life in this watch is amazing. It lasts multiple rounds. Fairly easy to set up. It advances as it should hole to hole. Yardage is accurate. Very comfortable to wear, super light.

Great watch, on the course. Long battery life in a charge

I have been using a handheld range finder, and this is so much easier to use. I compare distances with my partner, and both of our watches (he has a different brand) give about the same reading all the time. If you have a range finder and are looking to update your technology, this is a good way to go. I am not technological, but going to this watch was an easy move. I am very happy that I made the switch.

Very nice watch; perfect for golf with appropriate information; battery life is much longer that my old watch.

Easy to use, accurate, and yardage is almost instant. Great watch for golfers

Love this thing. Years ago I had a Sky Caddie. Then I got tired of spending $60 per year for the subscription especially when more and more of my golfing buddies were getting range finders and watches that cost nothing and worked just as well. This thing is great! Intuitive to use and navigate and can just be worn as a timepiece when you're off the links! Worth the investment.

Garmin golf watch does the job. I'm only disappointed that by changing from my old watch (approach-garmin) to this one, it no longer tracks my shot locations. It did that for no extra cost with the old watch. I would have to buy the CT10 golf club accessories for a lot more money to get those shots registered. So I'm losing statistics like average drive distances. I understand why Garmin went this way, since players can get a lot more detail about all their club distances. I could pay significantly more for the CT10s but I'm not going to do that. Thus the drop off of one star for this watch. Just on the merits of this watch, I like the functionality of it as it matches with what I had before in the Approach S20. Very similar functionality. Distances to hazards is a big plus, along with distances to layup (e.g. 120 yards to get to the 150 yard marker). Keeps score, along with number of putts and whether or not you hit the fairway. Band durability seems solid. In short, if you're looking for a golf watch that helps you play a round without taking the time to mess with a rangefinder, I highly recommend this Garmin watch. Just don't expect to have shot locations without the CT10s, otherwise you'll be disappointed. UPDATE: While battery life is great, yardage calculations are inaccurate at times. Very frustrating. Garmin customer service couldn't provide any wisdom as to why. Dropping this rating to 3 stars because of this key feature issue.

Used this for golf has heaps of courses downloaded.

Die Inbetriebnahme war einfach, die Bedienung ist es auch, meine Frau kommt sehr gut damit klar. Die Abweichung zu meinem Laser ist typisch 2 m oder weniger.

Fué un regalo y le encantó

Very accurate and easy to use, highly recommended
