And though there are a number of improvements beyond the S4, Garmin curiously hasn\u2019t reduced the price of their S4 from $249 list, even with the release of the sub-$200 S20 (though the S4 is available for less from Amazon).<\/p>\n<p>We recommend researching the Amazon product pages for a variety of golf watches and reading a good amount of reviews and all the product features before making your final decision.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"tve_image_frame\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wejustgolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/71IzDF5d2NL._SL1500_.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"tve_image wp-image-843\" alt=\"\" style=\"width: 276px;\" src=\"\/\/wejustgolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/71IzDF5d2NL._SL1500_-252x300.jpg\" width=\"252\" height=\"300\" data-attachment-id=\"827\" title=\"71IzDF5d2NL._SL1500_\" data-id=\"843\"><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B01AX444EK\/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=wejustgolfngm-20&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B01AX444EK&amp;linkId=9b87d3c9aabc374f64ec6218c23b5541\" class=\"tcb-button-link\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-css=\"tve-u-16053ea2317\" data-tcb-href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B01AX444EK\/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=wejustgolfngm-20&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B01AX444EK&amp;linkId=9b87d3c9aabc374f64ec6218c23b5541\"><span class=\"tcb-button-icon\"><\/span><span class=\"tcb-button-texts\"><span class=\"tcb-button-text thrv-inline-text\">View\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b It On Amazon.com<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Product Features for the Garmin Approach S20 Golf Watch<\/p>\n<ul class=\"\">\n<li>Comprehensive monitoring<\/li>\n<li>Tracks sleep metrics such as sleep patterns, hours slept and time taken to fall asleep.<\/li>\n<li>LCD display<\/li>\n<li>Delivers clear visual readouts.<\/li>\n<li>Delivers accurate, reliable location info<\/li>\n<li>High-sensitivity GPS receiver.<\/li>\n<li>Waterproof design<\/li>\n<li>Offers comfort and durability to support an active lifestyle.<\/li>\n<li>Built-in rechargeable lithium ion battery<\/li>\n<li>Offers up to 15 hours of use on a full charge.<\/li>\n<li>&nbsp;on a full charge.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"tve_image_frame\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wejustgolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/81XbwkthlGL._SL1500_.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"tve_image wp-image-845\" alt=\"\" style=\"width: 383px;\" src=\"\/\/wejustgolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/81XbwkthlGL._SL1500_-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" data-attachment-id=\"828\" title=\"81XbwkthlGL._SL1500_\" data-id=\"845\"><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B01AX444EK\/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=wejustgolfngm-20&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B01AX444EK&amp;linkId=9b87d3c9aabc374f64ec6218c23b5541\" class=\"tcb-button-link\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-css=\"tve-u-16053ea4d81\" data-tcb-href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B01AX444EK\/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=wejustgolfngm-20&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B01AX444EK&amp;linkId=9b87d3c9aabc374f64ec6218c23b5541\"><span class=\"tcb-button-icon\"><\/span><span class=\"tcb-button-texts\"><span class=\"tcb-button-text thrv-inline-text\">View It On Amazon.com<\/span><\/span><\/a>The Approach S20 is built entirely from plastic, and is available in black, white and midnight blue. The plastic watch is matched by a rubber strap, the design of which comes from the company&#8217;s line-up of running watches. It&#8217;s not ugly, but it&#8217;s not much of a looker either, and while it&#8217;s fine out on the golf course, it hardly stands up visually as a golfer&#8217;s everyday timepiece. &nbsp;It gets the job done for use as an everyday smart watch, but if you\u2019re looking for something more flashy we recommend something different. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The screen is a pretty dull monochrome affair, similar to any of the existing Forerunners. The 128 x 128 panel just displays texts and super-basic graphics, but it&#8217;s legible in bright sunshine, easy to read and does its job solidly.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"tve_image_frame\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wejustgolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/71xQn-AqJQL._SL1500_.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"tve_image wp-image-844\" alt=\"\" style=\"width: 397px;\" src=\"\/\/wejustgolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/71xQn-AqJQL._SL1500_-273x300.jpg\" width=\"273\" height=\"300\" data-attachment-id=\"833\" title=\"71xQn-AqJQL._SL1500_\" data-id=\"844\"><\/a><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B01AX444EK\/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=wejustgolfngm-20&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B01AX444EK&amp;linkId=9b87d3c9aabc374f64ec6218c23b5541\" class=\"tcb-button-link\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-css=\"tve-u-16053ea712a\" data-tcb-href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B01AX444EK\/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=wejustgolfngm-20&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B01AX444EK&amp;linkId=9b87d3c9aabc374f64ec6218c23b5541\"><span class=\"tcb-button-icon\"><\/span><span class=\"tcb-button-texts\"><span class=\"tcb-button-text thrv-inline-text\">View It On Amazon.com<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Autoshot \u2013 Although there were a few users that loved this feature, there were several complaints that it didn\u2019t track a fair number of shots and there was no way to manually input a shot when the watch didn\u2019t pick it up.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"tve_image_frame\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wejustgolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/81xZ3S2y9jL._SL1500_.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"tve_image wp-image-846\" alt=\"\" style=\"width: 382px;\" src=\"\/\/wejustgolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/81xZ3S2y9jL._SL1500_-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" data-attachment-id=\"831\" title=\"81xZ3S2y9jL._SL1500_\" data-id=\"846\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wejustgolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/81xZ3S2y9jL._SL1500_-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wejustgolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/81xZ3S2y9jL._SL1500_-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wejustgolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/81xZ3S2y9jL._SL1500_-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wejustgolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/81xZ3S2y9jL._SL1500_.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"bold_text\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"\"><\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"\"><\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"\"><\/h3>\n<h2 class=\"\"><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B01AX444EK\/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=wejustgolfngm-20&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B01AX444EK&amp;linkId=9b87d3c9aabc374f64ec6218c23b5541\" class=\"tcb-button-link\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-css=\"tve-u-16053ea996c\" data-tcb-href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B01AX444EK\/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=wejustgolfngm-20&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B01AX444EK&amp;linkId=9b87d3c9aabc374f64ec6218c23b5541\"><span class=\"tcb-button-icon\"><\/span><span class=\"tcb-button-texts\"><span class=\"tcb-button-text thrv-inline-text\">View It On Amazon.com<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Garmin Approach S20 is an excellent choice for a golf watch for golf geeks like us, and it\u2019s a no brainer to give you an extra edge on the golf course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For most golfers, golf watches tend to be strapped on just before a round and removed immediately afterwards.
