I am observing during last week's much longer time needed to find satelites. In the past it was 1 minute now it last much longer. Can someone confirm my observation?
yeah i noticed it also. it's always been a bit slow but the last couple rounds do seem much longer. i played on saturday and it seemed to take a good couple minutes. and it was bright and sunny day in southern california without a cloud in the sky. i know some days when it is cloudy and overcast it can be more difficult to get a satellite signal like WAZE gps or satellite radio in my car if i am under a bridge and it's super cloudy.
i usually try to launch the golf app once i park and then once it displays the course list i will back out and then wait till i am at the first tee to select the course.
One remark from from last round of golf. Time of searching was quick, but GPS position of my shot from 1st Tee box was shifted - not correct. On attached screenshot it looks as if I made my drive from different place. S60 was started just before start of the game next to 1 tee box. Next holes where correct, so I hope that it was just single error of reading GPS at the beginning of my round.ciq.forums.garmin.com/.../1406779.jpg
ive had this happen to me before. it happens when you pick the course before you are done on the range or on the putting green.
i bet the location it marked is where the putting green or the range is.
thats why when i am in the parking lot of the course, i start my s60 searching for satellites. once i see my course listed then i just back out. go do all my practice shots and when i am done practicing and headed to the 1st tee i will select my course.
most likely it captured a practice shot or even swing w/o ball. i have had it think i hit a ball by taking a swing that hit the ground during practice swings. doesnt happen often but has happened before.
In my case I started my S60 when I was of the left side of the tee box 1. My first drive was recorded from the right side of tee box 1 where I have not been in that day while it is area of green of the hole 9 on that course. I know that practice swings might be recorded, but it was not in that case.
I recently upgraded from my S42 to th S60. The watch connects after around three holes and today I'm on my sixth and it hasn't conneced. How can I get it replaced. I feel I made a very wrong choice
