My S44 worked fine for about a month. It recently stopped detecting all my shots. Every now and then it will pick up a driver shot. Everything else is fine.

I've had nothing but trouble with my S44. The latest issue mimics what you describe with a twist. It only detected my driver on two holes and shot maps are rarely displayed.
I've been on Garmin's chat to get advice at least four times, had the S44 replaced once under warranty, cleared caches, reset defaulrs, updated maps over and over, and am now on my final go with the watch. Last night on a chat with a barely helpful person I was directed to a page and instructed to do a hard factory reset.. I deleted both Connect and Golf apps and reinstalled. Deleted all bluetooth related apps and caches and reinstalled. Deleted the S44 from my account and added it back.
My problems started within the first few rounds back in February and are still ongoing. If all the reset, reinstall, delete and clear don't fix the problem plagued malfunctioning poor operating piece of hardware I will toss it in a drawer and be done with it and will be Done with Garmin products for good. I have been using an S20 for years without a hitch until the battery life became to short for 18 holes. I think they pushed the S44 out before it was ready and expect buyers to be Beta testers.
