Not everyone is particularly interested in swing data, particularly the deep dive technical stuff that most casual (and many serious) golfers don’t understand anyway. Being able to record your swing and have all the relevant data overlaid onto a video that you can send to your friends or post to social media is just a really cool thing though. It’s also pretty damn useful as it allows you to chart your progress in a way that’s more entertaining than just looking at a load of numbers. Seeing your swing with all the data overlaid on top of the video just seems a lot less boring for the casual golfer. And finally, the third mode is "Simulation," which might be the real golden nugget here. If you just took the MLM2 and combined it with a net and an iPad, you could play thousands of courses, even your home course with the provided courses that come with membership. The details aren't mind-blowing, but each hole is accurate in terms of terrain and distances. Plus, it's likely your home course is on the list. I did that when I tried Memorial Park in Houston, and while it didn't exactly make me think I was there, I could definitely practice all the holes to prepare for playing the course. The GC Quad is portable and convenient with no need for time-consuming calibration thanks to its in-built accelerometer, and as you would expect, provides powerful data analysis and visualization. More than a decade after the debut of its GC2, Foresight Sports has announced the product’s successor, the GC3. The latest addition to the Game Changer (GC) family will provide more golfers than ever before with the unmatched data accuracy and true-to-life simulation experience guaranteed only with Foresight.

If you are seeing your MLM change from green>blue>green but no data is appearing, please see the below steps to ensure proper set up and alignment: Overhead GPS view is a nice touch. The MLM app on your iPhone will determine your satellite location and provide you with an overhead view. You just need to pinpoint where you are (for instance which end of the driving range bays, unless you are out on the course) and then you select which direction you are hitting the ball. What this means is that when your session is finished you have an overhead view of the range and a breakdown of where all of your shots finished up. Why is this so portable you may ask? Well, it comes with a charging cable and nice carrying case and, whilst this redesigned unit is a little bulkier and heavier than other models on this list, it easily fitted into our golf bag. This meant we could use it prior to our round or for a practice session, with the SC4 featuring an easy-to-use remote control that magnetically attaches to the unit itself. That remote makes it super easy to change modes, clubs, and adjust other settings while you’re hitting balls. This product is incredible and rivals launch monitors that cost thousands of dollars! I have used all of the primary competitors and the MLM2PRO is just as accurate at a fraction of the cost. It is incredible to see shot vision and impact vision after a range session, along with the range session insights. I used to just go to the range without a plan and mindlessly beat balls for an hour, but the Rapsodo units have allowed me to get so much more out of practice sessions.

We cannot stress enough how convenient this monitor and for such a small - and well priced - launch monitor, the PRGR gathers a decent amount of data. The device gives you data on swing speed, ball speed, carry distance, total distance and smash factor. For us, this was just the right amount - not too much to overwhelm and not so little it's pointless. Sure there are more comprehensive devices out there, but not at this price point. This launch monitor works outdoors, but it's suited more towards golfers that have an indoor hitting space and screen available as it also doubles as an impressive simulator where you can play some amazing courses from the comfort of your home. Not only does the launch monitor have to be clear in displaying data, but you the player needs to have some understanding of what those numbers mean. FAQs Is it worth getting a launch monitor? The latest version has a higher-quality dual radar sensor, an improved processor and algorithm to increase accuracy, a larger, high-resolution display and improved wedge measurement (especially on higher-lofted shots) to capture more shots, as well as the ability to switch between yards and meters. You can also use it with any SuperSpeed swing training clubs to see if your exercises are increasing the amount of speed you can generate.

The Mevo+ includes ownership of 10 different golf courses in simulation mode (including The Belfry and Bay Hill), and 17 practice ranges that each provide unique skill challenges, with no additional license fee required.Linking with the above point, there are models with more features compared to others. Of course for most of the models we tested, measuring the golf ball's flight was the main purpose but some units offered the opportunity for simulator play, GPS functionality, or the ability to record your swing. Some also have games too. Bushnell is one of the market leaders when it comes to measurement devices in golf, and is renowned for producing some of the best rangefinders, trusted by the world's top players. Their Launch Pro Monitor combines the measurement expertise of both Bushnell and Foresight Sports (makers of the GC Quad) to deliver outstanding performance on and off the course.
