Garmin CT10 club tracking sensors - are they worth it? can they be better? connecting to my S62

You all know how much I like my S62. Thought would give the Garmin Club Tracking Sensors CT10 a try. After using it, I have some ideas on several improvements that would bring even more value to all golfers trying to improve their game!
@garmin, I have more ideas on how you could enhance a future product and I would be happy to test it out!
Let me know your thoughts in the comments below. What would you like to see?
And those with the CT10, how do you like them?

    Not sure why so many people give this a negative review...I absolutely love this product. It might not be the most accurate but the price is great and really enjoy the data it gives. Everytime I test the distance accuracy with range finder it's nearly spot on. If you think a yard or two will change your club selection you are delusional.

    Isn't it just using the watch to still track the shot distance. I have the s60 right now, I take a shot and select the club. Then when I hit next, the watch records the distance on the previous shot and makes me select the club for the shot I just hit. Don't these basically just automatically select the club, removing that step. This should be just as accurate as any golf watch but without the hastle of choosing a club. Play away and get data. Also auto score. Basically this should auto record the scores minus penalties.

    I used them for 2 rounds with my S62 and I thought they are more trouble than they are worth. I got so many false hits. The S62 is really good at detecting contact with the ball and prompts you for what club you just hit.

    Would love to know how this works on a putter. I've used GameGolf and Arccos before switching to the S62. Both tag systems wouldn't screw into my putter because of the counterweight. I managed to attach it by cutting off the stem and gluing it on. But really curious how effective the putt detection is.

    Hi EK just got my S62 watch (3weeks) ago, And was thinking 🤔 of fitting the ct10 (3pack) to Putter & both wedges to get the data for chipping & putting, Was thinking about your putter problem (you could get an old grip cut the top of the grip off screw in the ct10 & glue to the top of your putter) i see i am a bit late with this fix😬but it might be worth a try, Do you think I should fit the sensors to the 3 club’s, Thanks Dickey 9hcp 75year Senior Golfer UK

    I’m left handed also and I have the Garmin S60. In order to record your swings with it you’re supposed to wear the watch on your lead wrist and for me, it’s so awkward on my right wrist. So I currently sacrifice by not getting any distances recorded on my shots because I wear it on the left. If I added the CT10’s, would they sense each shot and wearing the watch on my trail hand shouldn’t be a problem anymore? Or even with the CT10’s do you still have to wear on the lead wrist?

    So - this sensor tells what club you hit for the yardage needed. I can keep track of that myself. Does this sensor tell you how far you hit the ball by subtracting the yards from your last hit? How does this work?

    I believe you have it right. When you hit the next shot, it asumes that spot is where your last shot landed and it knows what club you used. These take out the manual entry that you’d have to remember to make after every shot. Dunno if that’s worth $300.

    It's more useful to attach them to the clubs that you want to record the distance. So putter is the last club you want to use it on. Garmin also states that it's less accurate on a putter.

    Hi, since the watch can track full swings I didn’t use it on those clubs. I put it in my putter so that it could automatically track how many putts I took, and also roughly where I started my first putt on the green. Without it, not always can the watch pick up from where I started my first putt, since it’s too soft of a strike.

    I have the Garmin tags and watch, probably the most expensive out of them all and to be honest I’m disappointed. The club tracking seems to track all shots, so things like an 8i chip around the green records and reduces the average yardage, really poor they don’t sort this. Also, I find the app a bit messy in the performance center and not very clear what your stats are. Anyone feel this?
