R50 review
on March 20, 2026
Posted by: Al Marne
R50 is excellent but can stand a few upgrades: 1.being able to connect to an iPhone/iPad so I can hear the shot readout instead of having to look at the unit. 2. In home tee hero in order preview holes on my downloaded home course holes I have to put in a score or pick up the ball instead of just being able to progress or choose a hole. 3. Adding dynamic loft to the features.

Just a lot of fun and helpful

We have had the R50 for three weeks and it has been great. The ability to play almost any golf course around the world is a lot of fun. In less than a week I was able to bring my average score down a good ten strokes. Now I want to see if it will translate to a real course. In short, I can not recommend the R50 more.

I bought my R50 about a month ago. It has really been enjoyable dissecting the data as I complete more practice sessions!

Good features, but not very realistic courses

It works great except after I turn it off. I have to reset it, to get it to restart every time. Also not much detail on the courses or graphics to make it look more realistic
