Garmin Approach S70 Detailed Review! || Is it worth $700?! || Did the best get better?!

Спорт

I literally JUST reviewed the S62 from a long term (2 year) usage perspective and now the S70 makes it's debut! I managed to snag one while it was available from Dicks Sporting Goods - check out my detailed review of the S70. I used the watch in every aspect of my life over the last week and have a lot of information to share!

At Bogey King Golf our goal is to inspire, educate, do product reviews and have fun! I have been an on & off golfer for a number of years, but during the pandemic really began to golf regularly - sometimes 3 times a week. I've taken lessons, partnered with my local club to gain advice and made some new friends along the way. Join me in my journey to become a better golfer. I don't hide that I am not a pro. I am just like you - someone who loves golf and wants to improve. If you're new to golf - welcome! If you've been around golf for a while I hope you can learn something new and have fun in the process. Be sure to subscribe to our channel, like our videos and share with your friends!

    Great review...I haven't had a golf watch in so long and think today is the day that changes...the screen and battery life along with all the great info you get, and it just looks sweet...done deal.

    Bought a used S62 ($290)about a year ago (s10) was my previous watch.. I love it. It's my everyday watch. Virtual caddie is the best thing ever, but I must admit seeing the s70 come around made think about buying it.. thanks for the honest review #newfollower

    Thanks, I pulled the trigger on the S70. This is my first golf watch so I thought it was worth the investment. I’m an Apple Watch ultra guy (lte version) and really disappointed that I couldn’t find an app that would allow me to use it with GPS tracking from the watch. I don’t like having my phone on me while playing and while golf apps would display distances on my watch it was actually being calculated from my phone which isn’t near my ball location.

    Apple Watch guy here. What golf apps have you tried and liked? I tried the Arccos and it never made a complete round without freezing the app or missing multiple shots. Never worked with my putter. So, I’m done with them. SwingU is all about a subscription fee. Free features are worthless. I tried 18Birdies and didn’t like their “social app” feature. I have the USGA GHIN and Bushnell, MyTaylormade+, V1 Game, and a couple more. I am about to give up. I just use my rangefinder and settle for my current game

    I really liked using Hello Birdie. I did a review a little while back. It's a solid app and never froze for me while I was testing. I liked that you could plan your round before hand on your phone and transfer that info to the watch. It has a subscription cost to unlock premium features, but would still be a lot less then buying a 2nd watch. Thanks for watching and commenting!

    Can you copy all the settings from the s62 to s70? Or do you have to set the s70 up from scratch? Like favorite activities. Data points. Watch faces. Etc etc.

    As long as you sync it to your pc or mac using the Garmin Express app everything carries over. If you just sync it to your phone then you'd have to manually move stuff. I make a habit of syncing and updating the watch via Garmin Express. I find just using my phone doesn't do the same full software update and install process.

    I just sent my S70 back after almost a month with it. I think it's great on the course, but after the round it is not great. The Garmin Golf app is legitimately terrible compared to other apps when it comes to helping you improve as a golfer. Yes, it does a good job tracking shots and giving you club yardages, but every GPS golf app does that and that's where it stops with Garmin. I've used Arccos for almost 3 years and the post-round analytics is so much better than the Garmin golf app.

    @@BogeyKingGolf Garmin should just make their GPS tracking available to 3rd party apps since they don't want to invest much into the Garmin Golf app. I want advanced analytics like Strokes Gained that other GPS tracking apps provide.
