If you’re still pacing off your yardages by walking to the nearest stake in the fairway, it may be time to get with the program. Thankfully, Garmin’s made knowing your precise distance easier than ever before, introducing their Approach series. With two new smart watches, S42 and S12, equipped with loads of on and off-course features, and G12, an easily clip-and-go GPS for quick-check numbers, players can feel confident on every shot.
But it’s more than just a numbers game with Garmin. The company’s added significant tracking features in their Approach series offerings, all of which can be connected with the Garmin Golf App, providing key insights to improve your game. Upload rounds instantly, utilize live scoring and keep track of key stats so you know what areas of your game need work. With Garmin, it’s all about improving your game and enhancing your enjoyment of it.
A Trifecta of Trackers
S42
If you’re wanting the latest technology that delivers key information on the course, with the versatility of a day-to-day smartwatch, you’ve found it in S42. Track everything from your exact yardages to specific flag locations, to your heartbeat, daily steps, burned calories and more. Approach S42 uses an ultra-modern touch screen with 15 hours of GPS battery life. Wearing it as your everyday watch? You’ll get 10 days of battery life from it. The ultimate wrist companion for golfers with active lives, S42 offers so much more than just a yardage.
S12
Clean, easy to use and highly practical, the S12 offers a slightly streamlined offering than that of S42, but with the same exacting precision and on-course functionality. Easily readable yardages made possible by larger numbers and a sunlight-friendly display screen, S12 is the ideal on-course caddie for players of all skill levels. With 30 hours of battery life, it will be several rounds before you need to park it at the charger.
G12
The ultimate in no-fuss easy to use tech, the G12 provides just what you need—accurate yardages in a conveniently small package that can be clipped to your waistline or looped onto your golf bag. But don’t be fooled by its diminutive stature, this little gem connects to the Garmin App and offers the same functionality of S12, just with fewer accoutrements. And just like S12, this model also comes with 30 hours of battery life. The G12 will be available late spring.
