Why haven’t I ever had one?
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.

Ion GPS watch review
Watch is easy to set up. Charge holds for several rounds. Found it to be accurate with other players range finders.

Buy this but don’t buy the S10. This is better golf watch.
Great IMPROVEMENT over the S10 Approach watch. It’s worth the extra money. Having said that, it is clear that Garmin could use some advice from users on how to improve their features. Still too difficult to easily locate distance to hazard or from hazard to hole. Users will find that it is not intuitively designed. Kinda wonky. GPS works reasonably well. Much easier to view in sunlight than the S10. Much, much better battery life than the S10.

Golf GPS Watch, no BS.
I’m 67 years old. I want a simple, reliable, accurate, look down and read the yards in big numbers, on a sunny day. I previously owned a S10 which did the same thing but the S12 does a bit more. I can add the CT10 sensors to the S12. I can pair it to my phone to look at stats afterwards. I can look at where the traps and water hazards are by a quick push of a button. It pairs quickly to the outerspace GPS machine floating around the earth. A black and white number screen, not color. I dont need color – I know what color the green is. I also like the price. I tried the S62 and didnt have the patience to remember what buttons to push to see info. All I need to know is how far the hole is and how far a hazard is. The S12 does it.

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.
