With the Education discount + Trade In of any smartwatch the Golf Edition Watch 5 (Bluetooth) is 180.
The Gold Edition is the same Watch 5 in a specific design with the added Lifetime Membership to the Caddie App which comes preloaded. Generally this version sells for 50 more than the standard Watch 5. If you don't mind not having color/size choices, you can get for less than the standard Watch 5.
Select the Education discount at the top left where it says Samsung Offer Programs.
The trade in is for: Any Smartwatch, Any Condition, Enhanced trade-in credit, $70.
Total will be 179.99 + Tax and Free shipping

Correct me if i'm wrong but this is another trash walled garden product like my Watch 4 Classic with features locked to owning a galaxy phone?

It appears the golf option won't work without one, which is RIDICULOUS. Samsung phone UI is terrible, and I prefer the Pixel vastly over it. Every smart watch these days has compatibility with a ton of golf gps apps.(GHIN, GolfPad, etc).

Regret buying the 4 Classic all the time.

The toughest shots made easy
Track your shots, score, see the course, and take your game to the next level with Galaxy Watch5 Pro Golf Edition.
*Requires Galaxy smartphone with Android 8.0 or later, 1.5GB RAM or more. GPS accuracy may be affected by weather, atmosphere and other obstructions such as buildings and tall trees.
I own it without a Samsung phone. The ECG function won't work and it many times wanted to force me to use the Samsung apps but other than the ECG and finding alternative apps/settings, I haven't had any trouble using it. It's a great watch, far superior to the first WearOS watch I used some years ago. Looks nice with the included band, though I did swap it out for a metal one since that is the look I wanted.
The Caddie app seems to load ok. It let me set up an account and loaded the nearest course, though I don't golf so I can't say if any functionality past that is missing without a Galaxy.

Smart Caddie premium membership is $100 for 3 years. So the included "Lifetime membership" is really the lifetime of the watch, and you hope it'll last 3 years.

Customers who purchased Galaxy Watch5 & Watch4 Golf Edition (SMART CADDIE Exclusive) cannot transfer it to the Galaxy Watch5 & Watch4 (SMART CADDIE Non-Exclusive).

FWIW, I have a Samsung Fold 4, watch 5 pro and Note22 for work. I am technically savvy and know how to adjust the settings and apps running in the background. I have great battery life on all my phones and watch. I use my phone to wirelessly charge my watch when I don't have the charging adapter.
It's the age old Android vs Apple debate. Both camps are loyal. And if you have to switch, the learning curve can be painful.
So don't unintelligentlly say all samsung phones are crap and other phones are amazing. Every mgf has pros and cons.

I have EPP, and after an "any watch" trade in($70), it comes to $160 before tax.
Also comes with a "free" extra watch band.
