golf Autoshot not detecting swing Vivoactive 6

Golf season recently started up and the new VIvoactive 6 watch does not detect my golf swing for autoshot prompt forcing me to manually add shots every time. Has anyone else experienced this issue? The watch is on the correct wrist and am making full swings. I am no pro golfer by any means but what does it take for it to register a golf swing? Or is my watch have a bad sensor on arrival? Could this be a software problem and not a hardware problem?
