Drive - Missed Short -

To be honest I'm not sure why this question is asked at all (I have a S62 watch).

Based on the position of the next shot Garmin app should know if Your first shot was in the fairway, left, right, short or long.

That is assuming accurate maps, which I in general find quite accurate.

To me it would be way more useful if the watch asked me if my shot was OB left or right, or ended up in a penalty area.

If I answered OB then it could register my next shot from same location as my third shot, or if in penalty area add a drop shot unless I chose to play from the penalty area.

Even more annoying is the lack of ability to add a shot from the landing location of the previous shot. Typically chip shots that the watch doesn't register.

And the possibility to change shot order. If I hit my second shot over the green, and then overshoot the green to the front going back, it is impossible to have shot 3 from back of the green and shot 4 from the front.

The edge of the fairway depends on the greenskeeper's grass cutting from week to week, so there's no way a map could tell that.

6 inches one way or the other makes the difference between fairway and rough.

If I missed left, in the creek, my 2nd shot will not be from in the creek, so Garmin has no way of knowing where I landed.

Which is why I would prefer that the watch asked me after a shot if the ball is still in play..

Would be an extra click after club selection, and not always possible to answer directly. 

Maybe ask if provisional?
