Shot Maps post-round graphics incomplete.

7192993 — Wed, 20 May 2026 17:54:49 GMT

I'm new to Garmin, using the Approach S70 watch and iPhone Garmin Golf App v3.8.0.1. After my last round on 3.17.26, 'View Shot Maps' was incomplete. Holes 1 through 9 showed the hole graphic and shots with distances. Holes 10-17 showed only the hole maps, no data. 18 was OK. The scorecard data is provided and complete. I had read here that deleting the app and re-installing might help. I did that, along with the Garmin Connect App, just in case. No Joy. The Course Stats show my 'Longest Drive' as 223 yds on Hole 18, while in Shot Maps, Hole 3 shows my drive of 260 yds.

What's going on, and what's the fix? If I can't trust the data I'm paying for, what reason do I have to keep the watch AND CT10 Sensors?

Also, a housekeeping improvement: In Shop Maps, could Garmin please keep the hole score from moving around and blocking the Advance/Return arrows? It's frustrating, like swatting flies!

Thanks In Advance!

P.S. I've used and returned both Shot Scope and Arccos devices and sensors. They were too 'busy' to use and had incomplete data.

Is it possible to add some hole in the shot map

4567317 — Wed, 13 May 2026 19:04:12 GMT

I play a 9 hole match and I got hole map with all my shot for 7 holes. I know it's possible to add shot on a hole manually, but is it possible to add data for the remaining hole ?

Thanks

Garmin Approach R10 - Lefty Club Graphic for Ball Impact Screen

CM — Wed, 13 May 2026 18:23:28 GMT

Possible to get an update to show lefty club face on Ball Impact screen? Removing clubface entirely would be better than showing a righty clubface for a lefty golfer.

Garmin Z30 with Apple watch ultra 3

9834828 — Tue, 12 May 2026 10:56:25 GMT

I have a Z30 rangefinder and thinking of buying an Apple watch ultra 3, when I lock on to the flag will the data be sent to my phone then projected to the watch or does this feature only work with Garmin watches.

Feature Request - Integration with EZLocator

1141150 — Sun, 03 May 2026 18:57:27 GMT

Our course and a growing number of courses use EZLocator for the superintendent staff to use in order to plan out their daily pin placements and provide that data to members. Today they provide printed out pin sheets as well as an app that you can download onto an Apple phone. EZLocator also have integration with Club Car golf carts where you can see the pin location on the GPS screen on the cart that shows not only front/middle/back but also the distance to today's pin.

Request would be for Garmin to integrate with that data and expose it onto the relevant current and future watches/devices for both live play as well as post round data analysis for approach stats, putting distances, etc. Seems like the data is there and you should be able to consume it. Right now you need to eyeball it and move the flag along the green display prior to stepping on the putting surface and that is ripe for improvement.

For reference the relevant site is www.ezlocator.com/integrations

Stats not showing

4560698 — Wed, 29 Apr 2026 17:56:20 GMT

I‘m using the S42 and recently added 3 CT10 sensors. For my last rounds now no stats are showing for the round, even though it is activated on the watch. Not even puts or the strokes are added.

What can be done?

Tee box selection does not change

3163007 — Fri, 17 Apr 2026 00:54:50 GMT

new owner of the G82, so far, its amazing. i am a subscriber to get the heat maps.when im home, and start a round and select tee box Black, i get the distances just fine, but when i cancel the round and select the forward tee box, the numbers dont change.

do i have to be at the course for the tee box selection numbers update automatically based on what tee box you selected on the g82?

Feature Request- Tracking Golf Ball Data by Golf Ball Brand

9182844 — Wed, 15 Apr 2026 02:07:22 GMT

Would love to track golf ball data by golf ball brand. Would be helpful to determine the best ball for every golfer.

Why do see the par per hole on scorecard for my local golf courses (same issue for 2 courses so far I’ve played) but on the shot map, the map is perfect but the par for the hole is shown as par : 0?

Re adding device to phone app

5451502 — Fri, 03 Apr 2026 09:08:04 GMT

I am having problems connecting my approach s12 back to the garmin app on my iPhone. I had it before, removed the device from my Bluetooth and tried re adding but when trying to complete setup my phone app sees my garmin watch but then gets an error talking to the server? Tried restarting everything and still nothing. I also setup the app on someone else’s iPhone with mylogin details and the same issue happens. Is there a problem with the server, does it think my device is already registered? I could reset my garmin and delete all data but I don’t want to risk losing my round history? Any ideas?

Sharing scorecard feature not showing stats

3389879 — Tue, 31 Mar 2026 18:03:20 GMT

First of all, thanks so much for adding badges to golf and the ability to share your scorecard like any other garmin activity.

Love the idea, but when I shared my scorecard it does not show my scores for each hole, only the total. It also did not show my GIR or FIR stats with the round stat gross card either.

Golf App version 3.7.0.1 maps are appalling.

And away — Fri, 27 Mar 2026 08:17:37 GMT

The golf maps now used with the Golf App version 3.7.0.1 are appalling. Far too many trees right hand map and the definition is extremely poor. Fortunately I still have the old version on another device which are near perfect so fingers crossed I can protect it from being updated. Please can Garmin roll back to the original maps used in version 3.5.0.1b

When will there be a map update for Ballina golf club, NSW Australia

4784565 — Thu, 19 Mar 2026 06:44:21 GMT

I purchase an Epix Gen2 pro 4mths ago to use for Golf. My local golf course, Ballina golf club NSW has outdated mapping for many of its holes.

I have sent through 3 forms notifying of the outdated course info with no updates as yet.

Any info on when this course will be updated would be appreciated.

Easily delete driving range shot

Jimte — Fri, 13 Mar 2026 14:19:14 GMT

Feature request: to easily delete a driving range shot, instead of having to click a number of times (click on overview, edit shots, scroll to last shot (would already be easier if shorting is last > first), click on shot, delete, save). Having a delete option (with confirmation yes/no) would be 2 clicks and a lot easier/faster.

S62 and garmin golf app

7039273 — Sat, 28 Feb 2026 10:41:30 GMT

Golf app not showing shot maps correctly, it’s just a fuzzy green/black background.

never updates the weather conditions and has haphazard recording of distances

Ipad

cedriclekine — Sun, 22 Feb 2026 07:05:49 GMT

Hi there,

could the dev team think about a native ipad version of garmin golf?

And also garmin r50 live integration : could see what you are curently doing. Much easier if you are a pro and want more data without moving your golfer from the r50 screen

Thanks :-)

Skip to next hole, quickly

8621653 — Sun, 15 Feb 2026 16:26:31 GMT

Probably the most regularly required feature on a Fenix during a round of golf is the ability to progress to the next hole. We need a simple fast-track method to do this. Please God.

Black shot maps since Garmin Golf app v3.6.1

1356250 — Tue, 03 Feb 2026 16:10:27 GMT

Since the Garmin Golf app update to 3.6.1, several shot maps are black, or appear first and then black again. This is one of the most important features in the app for me. Can you fix this asap?

Vivoactive 5 won't link golf as an activity to Strava

IanHall25 — Sun, 01 Feb 2026 16:30:56 GMT

New watch won't upload golf as an activity on Strava. Run and walk data flows as usual but not Golf. Previous Venu watch did this automatically.

Sync with Clippd not working, anybody else having issues?

Jimte — Tue, 27 Jan 2026 21:59:51 GMT

I signed up for Clippd to see if this provides better/more info then Garmin does, however the data is not syncing from Garmin -> Clippd. Anybody else having issues?

Dispersion dots all the same color now

3524581 — Fri, 23 Jan 2026 20:35:15 GMT

Different clubs used to have different color dispersion dots. Now they’re all the same color? Looking back at past practice sessions, the app has changed those to all 1 color as well. Please make different clubs different color dots again 😞

Garmin Golf not calculating up and down properly

4170269 — Sun, 11 Jan 2026 06:05:20 GMT

After a round of golf with an up and down I realised the golf app wasn’t capturing it properly.

As you can see, on hole 12 I missed the green (X on the GIR row), but made par and had only one putt.

However, the overview of the round doesn’t show any up and downs.

Golf App - Add notes to Scorecard

3581551 — Sat, 20 Dec 2025 00:53:21 GMT

How can i add a note to my golf scorecard such as who I played with, weather, etc? If this is not an option, how can I request an upgrade to allow that feature?

Application upgrade

8257810 — Fri, 19 Dec 2025 06:40:00 GMT

I have spend a lot of money on garmin hardware for golf but unfortunately have to admit that on th software development sode youbhave let me down. Garmin has not made significant improvements. If i look at the competitors I think we are way behind and in terms of capital outlay some of my fellow golfers has spend not even half of what I have spend.
