    I've been a long-term Garmin user - I will be very interested to read the tester's thoughts on this and hope some folks are coming from Arccos. I absolutely love the quality of Garmin's hardware product, but the analytics/performance stats side for golf leaves a LOT to be desired compared to Arccos and even other free platforms like The Grint. I really hope this review will send the message loud and clear to Garmin that they need to drastically up their game on the SG side of things.

    Game changer if I have the opportunity to use the Garmin.

    Thanks for the opportunity! I currently use a Callaway rangefinder, but it would be so much easier to just have glanceable information on my wrist to make decisions more quickly. My LOWEST score thus far is a 102, so the shot-tracking data would definitely help my game. I’m also on a weight loss journey…70 lbs down since a pretty significant health scarelast year, but hit a bit of a plateau, so I think those metrics would also be useful to me as well!

    It’s really cool to see this as a long test and having the testers dive into the data. As a numbers guy, it really warms my heart 😂. Good luck to everyone applying!

    I have used an apple watch for a long time and have dabbled with a Whoop. Would love to see how this compares. I started using Scott Stallings/Matt Frasers HWPO Golf Program a few months ago (very solid programing) and would be very curious to see how effectively this tracks both the workouts and the rounds. Cheers!

    This would be perfect for me. I just bought new irons and would love to have grip sensors across my bag - and I'm in the market for a smart watch that does the golf & fitness combo the best. Had been looking at the Samsung but maybe I need to look this way.

    This would be a cool test. to do. I've started consistently walking as of last year and I do notice on tired days my golf game being affected quite a bit, much more if I were to drive a cart. I use the Shotscope presently and besides counting my steps during the round, it has no other use for me outside of the course.

    This one would be a lot of fun! I'd love to see how this stacks up against my current setup (Arccos sensors with Apple Watch). I love digging into the more techy stuff and would be excited to see how the stats compare.

    I've worked in IT for over 20 years so this one is right in my wheelhouse. I'm always playing around with technology and it's no different when it comes to golf. I would love to check out one of these and compare it to my galaxy watch 6 classic paired with the Hole19 app.

    I would love to see how this watch could help me be a better player and/or help me be a healthier me.  I currently have a list of ailments that I think this watch could help me track. 
    I have a sleep track system with my c-pap machine which is extremely rudimentary. My friend has this watch and showed me the capabilities of its tracking system and I would love to have the type of statistics it provides. I’d like to see how sleep affects rounds of golf.  
     
    I consider myself active. I am a member of 18 strong. It’s an incredible golf fitness program. I’ve been a member for many years and my entire purpose of working out is to be a better golfer and to live healthier . I don’t have any smartwatch to track my activities. Again, I see that this watch is capable of monitoring  some of your vitals and wonder if I could change anything to help produce better rounds of golf. I’d like to track my workouts, my basketball mornings, my evening pickleball games, and of course golf. I have to stay moving due to a herniated disc. That is what prompted me to begin to workout regularly in my early 30’s.
    I have thought often about getting a watch, a tracking device, but I really just use a laser and free apps on my iPhone. Last year I received the arrcos system for Father’s Day but returned them because I felt that it was too expensive for my family to buy for me. I love the game of golf and want to do more. I want to see my stats. I think when you put together everything…the stats, the awareness of your health, one can begin to perform better on the course. This is why I’d love to be a tester.  Thank you for the chance.

    Dying to get my hands on one of these. Almost pulled the trigger on the Taylormade Garmin that dropped last week but couldn’t justify spending $700+. Fingers crossed for this one!

    Hey guys. I’d love to test this. I started using the shot scope x5, but don’t love it. I think this is a comparison the community would be looking for!

    I love looking at data and numbers and seeing how they corolate with real life. Being able to see how day to day affects my ability on the course would be fun for me.
    Doesn't hurt that I'm looking for a new gps watch/fitness tracker right now.
    Good luck to everyone who applies!

    This is an incredible opportunity. I have been using the Garmin Fenix 6 to track scores for almost three years. Just last year started tracking clubs selection. Two weeks ago, I purchased the starter set of three CT10 club trackers. Having only played a couple rounds with them I'm excited about the feedback in the Garmin app. My fingers are crossed that I get this test, I've been on the fence about upgrading to the S70 since the Fenix is limited in certain capabilities regarding golf. And I know the Garmin app very well. Been a Garmin user and have converted several people to Garmin devices. 
    Whoever ends up with this watch and has never used a Garmin watch...you're in for a treat. These stat tracking devices are second to none and will not disappoint anyone who wears one.
