The option to manually edit and change average or max distance for clubs is currently not offered by design, and the inability to make an edit to those distances instantly is not an issue with our products…
In the past two years, Garmin has made many improvements and updates to the software and features on the Approach S60. The Approach S60 was first released back in 2016, and in the past two years Garmin…
The Approach G80 offers the ability to measure and assign the club to shots:
Currently this option only available using the AutoShot and Club Prompt features that record GPS distances to the scorecard during rounds of golf.
If there are any recorded shots contributing to outlier…
Garmin is always working to innovate features for products...so there is always the possibility of new features, and improvements to the methods of managing or recording your golf data.
The club distance…
Totally agree with you. At least show which course that MAX is recorded. This is a pretty simple feature that can be done in few days for one Software engineer.
I feel like Garmin did not put much attention…
Thanks for the message, but it’s not giving any confidence to the users that it’s being taken seriously. I’m not sure what your app developers are working on, but there’s not a huge amount changing or…
It is really frustrating that Garmin doesn't take this seriously. The product manager must not play golf or use the products they create for golf. Perhaps wear one on their wrist and that is it.
What is needed is a way to easily throw out exceptionally low distances and exceptionally high distances for every club. My putter sows I hit it 519 yards, sand wedge 521 yards, 9 iron 540 yards, etc...
Garmin not caring or prioritizing something this simple to fix gives me just one option... Vote with my wallet and buy something else.
I agree Phil I deleted all data and started again but that can all be undone by forgetting to enter club during a future. Garmin clearly dont care Bout this problem and i am not that impressed with my s62.
I reached out to you via direct message to get your feedback submitted through your account. We are still reviewing users wanting more options to correct distances.
Reply through to my DM if you would like your feedback submitted through the proper channel on our end.
Out of curiosity, with the new S70 no being released is this a feature that is available on there in some shape? Maybe gives you an option to ignore certain shots when playing if they have been duffed or not a full shot. Like it’s been mentioned above it records the distance as if it was a full shot but doesn’t give any option to record the shot type, such as a pitch shot, flop shot etc where you won’t be going the full distance. Be interesting if there is something that we are asking for on the S70 and whether it’s a way to try and push their new products
Garmin uses a proprietary equation to achieve club averages. We utilize a percentile system which allows us to more closely estimate the average distance for different clubs in your bag. Our equation does automatically remove erroneous shot data with certain clubs such as half shots and misreads from the watch or sensors (mishits, duffed or chunked shots, thin or bladed shots, etc.)
This is not exclusive to the Approach S70. Users taking (for example) a rescue shot, punching out to the fairway, using a longer distance club type...you can exclude the club by exiting the club prompt selection window that appears after the shot is detected. So if you tap the Back button on the lower right side, you can opt out of assigning the club. Users can also edit the shot if using CT-10 sensors, after the round when the scorecard is synced over to the Golf app.
Typically the outlier distances affecting max distance displayed for clubs is a result of the watch continuing to measure a shot because a prompt was not confirmed resulting in the hole not transitioning resulting in a longer distance being measured.
Please direct message me if you have questions/concerns, so I can get some additional info for your specific concern related to the max/average distances.
Garmin-Cody I think what we, as users, are looking for is a simple update to the App that allows the user to manual delete these rouge shots and data. Currently the answer has been you need to do this either on the course immediately after realizing the data is rogue (unlikely to happen), or by editing the round after you have finished. The latter is unlikely also, as requires you to go into the app and do the deleting / updating whilst it's still fresh in your mind.
What I would like, is a way of being able to see all my shot data, under an "edit data" option for each club, then to be able to mark a shot as either erroneous (so that it is not counted in my club data), or be able to delete it if it is so incorrect.
Having this function should be really easy to add, as all the data is there, and would then bring your app in line with other apps that already provide this function. I would further suggest that it is an easy bit of coding that could be done rather easily and quickly, so i would ask has this been put to the update team yet, or is this still being debated.
Please add me to the list. Manual editing of the distances is what I need and want

unfortunately I tried using the solution above but when I removed the shot it was the only one on the hole and now I can't replace it with another shot. Look at the TopTracer Range app. You can see every shot recorded for a club and remove outliers. It makes no sense not to be able to remove 300 yard shots with a 9 iron.
Same for me. Would really appreciate some action on this as well, without it suggesting a club is completely useless.
