Alongside the new Approach S44, the Garmin Approach S50 is one half of a new duo of GPS golf watches to add to the already popular Garmin lineup. Considering Garmin makes some of the best golf watches on the market, I was excited to get my hands on a watch that could potentially serve me well as a caddy on my wrist whilst on the course and as a fitness tracker off it.
Both the Approach S44 and the Approach S50 are beautifully constructed, boasting a slim, lightweight build packed full of useful features. The crisp 1.2-inch color AMOLED display really pops no matter the weather, meaning you’ll never be squinting at your watch trying to read your yardage like a pensioner attempting to read the newspaper. 43,000 courses come preloaded with both watches and are complemented by key golf features like yardages to hazards and the front, middle and back of each green.
