CT10 club sensors
You fitted Garmin CT10 sensors.
Now change your game.
Your watch knows where the ball went and your CT10 sensors know what you hit. Together they already hold the answer: AVA reads both and turns 'you miss greens' into 'take one more club', priced in strokes.
One CT10-tagged round in. Off the tee you lost 4 strokes. Approach cost the most, at −4.9.

Connect Garmin once and you're done
Garmin is a native sync, not an export job. Authorise it once and every round you play arrives on its own, scored in strokes gained next to your practice sessions.
That's one round. AVA reads your whole game.
Course rounds and range sessions in one place, trends over time, a progression that adapts as you improve, and a coach view when you want one.

The finding that needs a club attached
Look at the approach chart above: eight of twelve tracked approaches finished off the green, 10 to 50 yards offline, and seven of them started from rough or sand. That is not one strike fault, and it is not bad luck.
It is a yardage habit. You are playing to a carry number your best strike produces, not the one you can repeat, and the ball finishes on the front edge or in the bunker in front of it. Two or three times a round, every round.
You can only see that if something knows which club was in your hands. A watch alone tells you the approach missed; sensors tell you the 7-iron missed short by eight feet, which points straight at 'take the 6'.
Screw them in once and forget them
CT10s replace the grip-end cap on each club and tag the shot when the watch registers a swing. There is no charging routine, nothing to remember on the first tee, and no app to open mid-round.
That matters because the value of club data is entirely a function of completeness. Data for the clubs you remembered to log is worse than no data, because it looks like a pattern when it is really a sampling bias.
Automatic capture across a whole season is what makes club-level findings trustworthy, and it is why sensors tend to change a profile more than a more expensive watch does.
Driver is usually not the problem
The most common self-diagnosis in amateur golf is a driving problem. Club-level data usually disagrees, and it disagrees in a specific way.
Off the tee, the cost is concentrated in a small number of holes where the trouble is genuinely reachable, and the fix is a club choice, not a swing. The round above makes the point: one 3-wood off the 1st found rough and picked up two penalty strokes, −2.26 on a single shot.
AVA prices that decision hole by hole, which turns an argument about your swing into a plan for your tee shots. It is the fastest scoring change available to most golfers and it requires no practice at all.
CT10 questions, answered
How many sensors do I need?
As many as you want covered, but completeness is what makes the data trustworthy. Partial coverage looks like a pattern when it is really a sampling bias, so aim to tag the clubs you actually hit.
Do they need charging?
No. They replace the grip-end cap and tag shots automatically when the watch registers a swing: nothing to remember on the first tee.
What can AVA tell me with sensors that it can't without them?
Which club produced each miss. That converts 'your approach play costs you five shots' into 'your 7-iron out of the rough finishes 20 yards left': a description becomes an instruction.
Do they work with any Approach watch?
They pair with Garmin Golf-compatible Approach devices. AVA reads the round from your Garmin account rather than the hardware, so what matters is that the club tags reach the round.
Is it worth it if I already have a launch monitor?
Especially then. Practice data gives you your ceiling per club; sensors give you what the club does on real turf under real pressure. The gap between the two is one of the most useful numbers in your profile.
Put a club on every shot, then change the ones costing you
