Hi- I have been paying for the membership for several years and can get the contours on my app but not my S70- my version is 17.28. I have followed all the steps with no joy. Are there any know issues with that version?

Ensure the following steps outlined below are being followed:

Make sure to start the round on the Approach S70 and not through the Garmin Golf app when you are at the course straight away.
When starting the round on the S70, have the Garmin Golf app open, and make sure your Approach S70 is showing synced and connected in the Garmin Golf app.
The watch should then display that contours are available and will then proceed to download the contours to the watch allowing you to then select the tee box on the watch and other round options. The contours will then display on the green view screen on the watch directly.
The steps outlined on the Garmin Support page linked here: Updating Green Contours for Garmin Golf Products are followed...specifically in the section on the page of the article sub-titled: "Updating Green Contours on a Compatible Garmin Device".

If you are still not seeing contours download to your watch, please reach out to me via direct message so I can gather some additional info to submit a ticket through your account for the issue.

- Thank you
