Swing Tempo Training
The Tempo Training activity helps you perform a more
consistent swing. The device measures and displays your
backswing time and downswing time. The device also
displays your swing tempo. Swing tempo is the backswing
time divided by the downswing time, expressed in a ratio.
A 3 to 1 ratio, or 3.0, is the ideal swing tempo based on
studies of professional golfers.
The Ideal Swing Tempo
You can achieve the ideal 3.0 tempo using different
swing timings, for example, 0.7 sec./0.23 sec. or 1.2 sec./
0.4 sec. Each golfer may have a unique swing tempo
based on their ability and experience. Garmin provides six
different timings.
The device displays a graph that indicates if your
backswing or downswing times are too fast, too slow, or
just right for the selected timing.

To find your ideal swing timing, you should start with
the slowest timing and try it for a few swings. When
the tempo graph is consistently green for both your
backswing and downswing times, you can move up to the
next timing. When you find a timing that is comfortable,
you can use it to achieve more consistent swings and
performance.

Jumpmaster
The jumpmaster feature is for use by experienced
skydivers only. The jumpmaster feature should not be
used as a primary skydiving altimeter. Failure to input the
appropriate jump related information can lead to serious
personal injury or death.
The jumpmaster feature follows military guidelines for
calculating the high altitude release point (HARP). The
watch detects automatically when you have jumped to
begin navigating toward the desired impact point (DIP)
using the barometer and electronic compass.
