Garmin Wrist Watch
Wednesday May 13, 2015
I purchased this online from Golfsmith for $100 on special. I thought I would finally join the 21st century after never having any type measuring device. It is easy to use and holds a charge for about 2 rounds. It is also easy to recharge. So far, so good, I am getting used to wearing a watch during the round. The accuracy seems good, it is rarely off more than a yard from what a cart's GPS has the yardage as. The downside is that it is limited to only front/back/middle yardage to the green.

Garmin S1 Watch
Wednesday June 12, 2013
I have been using this or about 8 rounds now and really love it. I was using a range finder and still use once in a while, but this is really quick and easy to use. I agree with other who have said that the charging connection is not the best, but really like it being right on my wrist, it is so convient, and I don't where things on my wrist.

This is a game changer!!!
Tuesday January 29, 2013
I recently picked up the Garmin S1 watch and love it after only a couple short rounds. It is super simple to use and requires zero setup. The time/date is updated automatically by satellite. It only takes a minute or so to locate position when starting a round.

On the course, I am loving the ability to know my yardage at a quick flick of the wrist. No need to get wrapped up with operating and carrying a handheld device, laser or gps. I see it speeding up my PoP since I no longer have to search for markers and guesstimate the yardage. Plus having the accurate yardage has already saved several strokes for me with better club selection.

Got mine for $179.00

You have to try this one

Im surprised that Im the first one to review this great item. This distance finder is great. I recieved a S1 approach for Christmas. I also have a Callaway range finder and it works great but if your behind a large hill, a tree or anything that blocks you from seeing the green/pin. This S1 will give you the distance to green. All you need is a line to your target. This S1 also acts like a watch when not being used on the Course. You almost forget you have it on until you need it. Doesn't get in the way of your swing which is great and the price is right at $169.00
