Scoring and Automatic Hole Transition - Anyone else having this problem?

I have been having an issue with the keeping score function on my Fenix 6 while playing a round of golf (scoring on, stat tracking on). I know it is a different watch, but the software for the Golf activity is substantively the same. I would like to know if this has been an issue for anyone with an S62.

The score function itself works fine, and I am able to enter a score for a given hole. However, after the automatic hole transition occurs and I am on the next hole, frequently the keeping score screen from the previous hole pops up. It remembers the values I just entered, but I have to click through all of the screens to confirm. If I don't see it before I take a swing, then automatic swing detection does not work, or it puts the swing on the previous hole.

Initially, I thought this was occurring only when the tee box of the next hole is near the green of the previous hole. However, after playing many different courses over the past four months, I have run into the same problem multiple times.

I previously contacted support about this issue over chat, and they recommended a full reset of the watch, which I did. It has not resolved the issue.

  • I am sorry your Approach S62 has been behaving poorly. Please reach out again to Golf Product Support so we can warranty replace your watch. Your watch behavior is not being reported otherwise. I checked worldwide reports to ensure no patterns are being reports and found nothing.

    Unfortunately, everything points to your watch having its own issue.
