Good features but lacking in one area
on October 1, 2023
Posted by: Sierra Tom
The unit works well. The wealth of information is impressive. Now, if I can put it all together that will help me with my swing mechanics. Two things need improvement. First, the instruction manual is grossly inadequate. I went online and got the "more" detailed manual but it still leaves a lot to be desired. This is a complex device, it needs better documentation. Secondly, alignment of the R10 is somewhat problematic. I try and follow the directions but even then it is not clear to me whether the data I am seeing is correct or if their is an alignment issue. It would be nice to have a laser pointer type light coming out of the front of the device which would be pointed at the ball so you knew when the Rq0 was correctly aligned.

20-30 yards short

Connection is great, setup is easy, seems to track ball well. But All of my clubs are very short. Hoping an update will help. There is no way to update manually, it does it in the background.

Still working on it

Doesn’t do well with short irons, maybe 1 out of 3 shots gives feedback. Inside vs outside, doesn’t matter. Bought the 12 month golf package but have tried to use other compatibility apps. Same thing. I’ve calibrated and tried different “tricks”, nothing has helped. If I had to do it over again I would save the money and buy the Bushnell. It’s a shame too because I felt like my next purchase would be a fenix.

Easy to set up and a great time to play in the yard when you can't get to the range or on the course

Easy to set up and provides instant feedback on shot. Interface is intuitive and adds a new dimension to hitting golf balls. Worth the money.

Fantastic product, works very well with RCT balls. Set up is key, but can really add that next level to your game!

Great product
on September 21, 2023

It's super easy to set up, it's a great budget item for any golfer that wants to improve. The only problem is you need a little bit of space behind you when you are hitting balls. It comes with the charger and phone mount, I also love the fact that you can make notes about your swings. The item better suits the more expert golfer but it also helps the newer golfers that are just getting into it or have been playing for years.

Too early to give it 5 stars

I have had good luck so far using a net n mat in my shop. Irons seem accurate, but driver does not show correct yardage. I have used different distances between equipment n R10. Still experimenting... I have had more trouble with pairing and missed shots, which always seem to be the best ones. Once I get my impact screen setup, I hope for better results.
