Our take on the Approach S44 GPS Watch

The Garmin Approach S44 is an entry-level GPS golf watch with more than 42,000 courses preloaded, so there are no downloads or subscriptions before a round. It shows front, middle and back distances to the green and keeps a scorecard with basic stat tracking. Its clean, minimal case is meant to pass as an everyday watch, which sets it apart from bulkier golf GPS units. It suits golfers who want quick yardages without a rangefinder or phone, though it lacks the shot-tracking and advanced sensors of Garmin's higher Approach models.

About the Approach S44 GPS Watch

The Garmin Approach S44 is a GPS golf watch. It shows distances to the front, middle and back of the green on your wrist, so you don't need a phone or a rangefinder.

It comes with more than 42,000 courses preloaded, including Gunnedah Golf Club. No subscription or download is needed to use them.

A built-in scorecard and stat tracking let you follow your game over time. The design is clean and minimal, so the watch can also be worn off the course.

Questions and answers

Do I need a subscription or phone to use the course data?
No. The courses are preloaded on the watch, so you can turn it on and play without a subscription or a paired phone.
Does the S44 track shots automatically?
No. It gives distances and keeps score and stats, but it does not auto-track shots or suggest clubs the way higher Approach models do.
How is it different from Garmin's more expensive Approach watches?
The S44 focuses on front, middle and back distances plus scoring. Pricier models add full-color maps, shot tracking and more sensors.
Can I wear it as an everyday watch?
Yes. The design is clean and minimal, so it is meant to look at home away from the course as well as on it.
What is in the box?
The watch and its charging cable. Courses are already loaded, so nothing else is needed to start playing.
Where is the Approach S44 GPS Watch cheapest?
At Badlands, for $299.99, as of our latest check.
