Garmin Approach S2 – A GPS Smartwatch for Golfers

Any extra edge can help you win the game. Thanks to technology, there are always new devices that can improve your performance. The Garmin Approach S2 will provide golfers with a library of 30,000 course layouts from around the world, without needing a mobile data connection.

The Garmin Approach S2 weighs 1.8 ounces, and is much lighter than carrying a dedicated GPS unit or relying on your phone. Thanks to GPS, it’s able to measure the distance of a shot as well as measuring the yardage to the hole. There’s also a pedometer and a digital score card.

Worldwide Courses with Free Course Updates
Approach S2 is preloaded with more than 30,000 courses from around the world. Whether you’re on a course near home, a course at a holiday resort or the Old Course at St. Andrews, the S2 knows where you are and how far you have to go.

Every Approach S2 includes free lifetime course updates, without additional subscriptions. Updates are added up to 4 times a year and are available through CourseView Updater.

The Garmin Approach S2 will launch in March 2013 and will cost $249.99.
