I played a round of Golf yesterday whilst wearing my Garmin S62 watch. Previously the activity uploaded to Strava which included a map of the activity i.e walking route taken. However recently the activity map is not uploading to Strava whilst the basic details are.

Garmin’s default golf settings for an activity have the GPS recording turned off and thus your watch didnt record the distance. You need to turn this on in the golf activity settings within the watch. Then should work for next round (had the same issue my first time trying it).

Ciao ​@Coggy79. Have you checked your privacy settings? Maybe is it something related with the address hidden details? 

Anyway is the activity correctly recorded on your garmin?

Building on the above, which I think is the reason, can you let me know if you see a map for your golf activity in Garmin Connect?

My Garmin Instinct2 Solar has completely stopped uploading golf activities to Strava  everything else uploads just fine.
