I love to golf, and even though my game is hotter and colder than an overly complicated hotel shower, just being on the links brings me immense joy. That said, I'm always looking for a way to improve my golf chops, and outside of private lessons and/or retiring to a Florida golf course, picking up a Garmin GPS-enabled golf watch is one of the simplest ways to do just that. 

Right now, three of Garmin's best GPS golf watches are on sale, including the flagship Garmin Approach S70, which is marked down to $599 for the first time ever. If that price makes you queezy/gives you the yips, worry not. There are other more affordable deals too.
