Battery goes dead before 18 holes of golf are finished

On certain course the Garmin Approach S60 dies before 18 holes are completed. The S60 was charged fully prior to the game and only 5-1/2 hours had elapsed from full charge to "dead'

Just started happening in the past 2 months.

How old is your S60 and has it been updated to the latest software. There was an issue sometime ago but a firmware update solved the problem. If it is not that then have you changed the watchface to a downloaded one? I did have an issue with one watchface (can't remeber which) that did drain the battery quicker than others.

I am sorry your battery is dying so quickly. Please ensure your watch firmware software is fully up to date using Garmin Express. If the battery issue continues, please contact Product Support and we will gladly work with you to resolve the issue.

I have the same issue. The watch is 5 years old. I have seen that the battery can't be changed. Are these considered disposable after a certain amount of time? My issue stater about 6 months back. I just got through 7 holes before it died. Seems to hold up decent when not golfing.
