Reportedly it's base is titanium which will allow it to be compatible for the new body composition function. It may come with it. The amoled screen is the one big thing I liked about my Samsung better and why I wanted the Epix gen 2. This is a no-brainer for me. I just hope it's has the same size band so I can use the ones I already have. I'm sold on Garmin. This 955 is awesome.

Are either of you familiar with Garmin’s “Body Battery” tracking? I’m curious if it’s something useful, or just silliness that they put on their women’s watches.

Yes. It along with the sleep tracking are as important as anything else I use.

the sleep tracking and recovery parts are my biggest things to monitor, but it is interesting to follow the body tracker. But basically I sleep, go throughout my day and watch it slide

Yeah, I decided to post yesterday mainly to share that link with you. Didn't know if you keep up with all the new info or not. I'm not sure if it's a hobby or an obsession, or both, but I keep up with it daily, on Samsung and Garmin.

I have an excel sheet I fill out every morning with about 45 lines of info. It's just something I do. Guess I get it from being in the restaurant business for so long. It's all in the numbers. It's been so important for tracking certain things side by side for improvement, accuracy and consistency. The Garmin is amazing. Seriously.

I've been bed ridden, on vacation and on an eating binge over the last couple of months and watching the numbers do their thing has been invaluable to my trust in its accuracy.

I use to fish the Oregon rivers (McKenzie, Rogue, Umpqua, Deschutes, Willamette mostly)for rainbows quite a lot and occasionally for Steelhead. Lots of fun on a light rod. Built two Sage 4 weights and two 5 weights. One for myself and one for my wife. Always fished barbless and dry.

Over the years we had a 12 ft Maravia and a 14 ft Highside self-bailing rafts with a rowing frames. Rowed the rivers for over 30 years.

I'm 75 now and my wife has physical issues so her rafting and flyfishing days are pretty well over. I still want to get back on the river, but it's hard to leave her behind.

Bless you both. I finally decided after 20 some years I can't hit a golf ball but I can tie a #22 puppa and cast a fly rod.
