So/so

This is second year using the Garmin 44. It is very accurate in distance and scoring but does not fully charge up. Also, too many buttons to push to get the information you're looking for.

Excellent Golf Watch

My Garmin S44 is an excellent golf watch. It does all that I wanted and more. Another bonus is how long the battery lasts before recharging.

Happy with the golf. I can’t figure out how to use the walk mode. Also if I keep score for golf, why does it not add my total score.

Garmin Golf Watch

I bought this about a month ago. It took a little effort but o get it running and understand how to use it because it does not come with a manual. You have to look up everything online and that was not so easy. Otherwise, I really like it.

Awesome S50 watch! So glad I went this route over Apple. I’ve been wearing it all day and I’ve never been a watch person before, but I forget I have it on. Plan on getting the Garmin Z30 rangefinder to sync it up and only have to use the range finder once a hole.

Great Product.

I’ve had many watches and this one is great. Does a lot of features beyond golf. I would really recommend going onto YouTube to learn what Garmin product fits your lifestyle. I wanted one that did a lot of fitness and heart health features which this does. The fabric band is okay. I still though prefer the old band style.

Great Range Finder And Watch.

I've gotten to where I wear my approach s44 almost every day. Great features. Worth every penny. Wish I had this years ago.

Great Watch (Light, Thin, And Minimal”ist”

I really enjoy how light and thin the watch is. Similar to my whoop you almost forget you’re wearing it. With Garmins ecosystem of products this is a great watch to improve my time on the course. Not needing to have my phone with me and find instant ranges is great to disconnect and play 9 holes walking. I do find it cumbersome to take the watch on and off due to the small wristband. This was an easy fix as there are a ton of 3rd part options and I prefer a silicone band for sweat.

Did Not Work

I used it twice then after that it would not work. I had to return it.

Great

I love the watch and step counter but haven't tried golf yet it's still winter. Can't wait until this spring

Love This Watch

I've had this Garmin Approach S44 for a month now. I've played up to 7 different courses in 2 different states and had no issues with the watch immediately finding my course. The distances have been spot on. No longer do I need to carry my phone with me to get distances. The watch band is very comfortable and comes in different colors. I would definitely recommend this watch for the price. You can find and pay more for added features but for me it wasn't necessary.

Amaxing Watch Love It Great Options For Sports

Great watch good for golfing and any sports been using it for my swimming and records your every movement amazing great device!

Size Is A Factor.

I purchased this and as a woman I thought that the smaller 42mm would be fine. It really is BUT since I have a 47mm Forerunner and Fenix 8, this watch felt very small. I will keep this as it does cover all the golf basics but I have now also purchased the S70 to replace it. I should have known better. There’s no doubt this S50 is great thought and pairs with the R10 well. Good on course info is really what I need.
