Features: Swing Metrics Use S6 to train your swing with swing metrics, featuring SwingTempo and TempoTraining. SwingTempo measures the relationship between upswing and downswing and expresses it as a ratio. In studies of successful golf swings, an ideal ratio of 3:1 has emerged, even with individual variations of speed. TempoTraining uses the 3:1 ratio and gives you audible tones to synchronize your swing mechanics and fine-tune swing tempo. Which makes S6 as valuable on the driving range as it is on the course. CourseView Get full-color hole-by-hole details for more than 39,000 international courses, even before you play them. Preview doglegs, hazards and green shapes from wherever you are on the course, or even from home. Smartphone Notifications Receive emails, texts, alerts and more right on your watch. S6 displays whatever your iPad(r) or iPhone(r) (4s or later) can display wirelessly via Bluetooth(r). Stat Tracking Input strokes, putts per round, GIR and fairways hit while it's still fresh on your mind. Then later, when you access your printable scorecard, you can view the information there. Instant, Simple and Precise Rugged and water rated to 5 ATM (50 meters), it displays yardages to the front, back and middle of greens on a high-resolution, glove-friendly color touchscreen.

First off, I am never on the cusp of new technology. I do not like to be the first one to fork over my hard earned money while the manufacturer works out the kinks. In other words, I do not want to be your guinea pig. That being said, I couldn't get my mind off of buying this thing so I finally caved in and bought it last Friday. Used it twice this past weekend and so far I am thoroughly unimpressed. There are a ton of features on this watch, problem is, they don't live u..
Despite some of the negative reviews, I still purchased this watch and am sooooo happy I did. First, I want to address a few criticisms I read and then I'll give my own impressions of the watch.Screen:Some have said the screen looks nothing like the pictures advertised by the manufacturer. I do not understand what these people are looking for! The screen is fantastic! No, the pictures don't show EXACTLY what you get, but neither do other GPS screens look EXACTLY li..
