    NOTE: Because pin locations change, the watch calculates the distance to the front, middle, and back of the green, but not the actual pin location.
  7. Select an option:
    • Press UP or DOWN to scroll through the holes.

    • Press GPS to open the golf menu (Golf Menu).

When you move to the next hole, the watch automatically transitions to display the new hole information.
