Distance wrong on approach s60.

I have had measurements done by the course maintenance staff and fellow golfers using other garmin golf gps, and none ever agree with the distance from my fairway shot to the centre of the green. It reads on average 15 yards shorter. What can I do to get the right distance? For the cost of the s60 it should be much more accurate. May be you should send me a new GPS that shows the correct distance?????

I had the S40 approach, and that was totally in sync with my club distance, after I got the S60, I am always short of where I want to be, but the garmin golf app suggests the club distance is accurate. Obviously thr watch is not giving me the right distance on the course and I've tried this on different courses and with different apps, it's always short. I wish I had not sold the S40. Now I am repenting buying this watch

I have just played with 2 friends who both had older Garmin GPS watches and I found the same issue, my S60 is up to 20 yrds out on some greens, I also measured using my laser which confirmed it is my S60 that is wrong, how can I fix this? a GPS is as much use as a chocolate firegaurd when it is this inaccurate..
