Measuring a Shot with the Garmin AutoShot Feature

Your vívoactive® device features automatic shot detection and recording. Each time you take a shot along the fairway, the device records your shot distance so you can view it later (Viewing Your Shot History).

TIP: Automatic shot detection works best when you wear the device on your leading wrist and make good contact with the ball. Putts are not detected.
  1. Begin playing a round.

    When the device detects a shot, your distance from the shot location appears in the banner Callout number one at the top of the screen.
