Golf doesn't appear as an activity

It’s “the” main activity. Just click the huge flag surrounded by green to enable that function 

Let me elaborate.  

After an activity, i.e. walking or exercising the watch will sync with Garmin connect and that 'activity' will appear with statistics such as heart rate, speed, pace, duration, etc.

When I used to use the s60 to record a round of golf it would also appear as an activity after syncing with garmin connect.  It would have all the stats (except heart rate of course) and would appear in the list of activities I'd done in chronological order, and that is in addition to recording the scorecard and shot history which appeared elsewhere in Garmin golf.

Now with the s62, I only get the scorecard and golf related data appearing in Garmin golf.  Round doesn't appear in activities list......    No step count, calories, distance, etc for walking the course, no nothing.

I’m sorry, I completely misunderstood you. That’s bizarre as I have all of that info and I don’t recall doing anything special to enable that. Have you tried a factory reset? This is something that should work out of the box. 

It is in Settings-->Golf Settings-->Record Activity (you should "slide" the bar until it is green). 

Page 12 of the Owner's Manual: "Record Activity: Enables activity FIT file recording for golf activities. FIT files record fitness information that is tailored for Garmin Connect."

Interesting that it’s not enabled by default. 

It was. However it "slid" into off after the last update in January

That would be the culprit, thanks all
