Garmin enters the world of golf simulation with the Approach R50, a portable, data-driven simulator built for players who treat practice as seriously as play.

TO THE CASUAL player, the idea of spending thousands of dollars on a golf simulator may seem extravagant. But ask any serious golfer and they'll tell you that investing in a home set-up is no frivolous pursuit. Their argument is simple: what dedicated player would let bad weather, short days, or closed courses stand between them and real improvement?

It is in this spirit that Garmin steps into the world of golf simulation with the Approach R50. Although the brand isn’t traditionally associated with golf, the Approach R50 represents a natural extension of Garmin’s data-driven philosophy: delivering performance insights in a practical and accessible form.
