Garmin Approach R10 Launch Monitor works great
on April 25, 2023
Posted by: Bagster
I bought this 8 months ago and am finally writing a review on it. I use this when I was going to the range to see how accurate it was in measuring the ball flight and distance. It did really well and I was happy with it. I really like the club path, ball path, and the attach angle to show me when it's a good hit ball vs a poorly hit ball. I use a couple of different apps with it. For golf range simulation I will use the standard Garmin golf range but will mainly use Awesome golf App. It shows you a lot of info in regards to club face, club path, ball flight and of couse carry and total distance. Awesome Golf Launch monitor for the cost. Much cheaper than those more expensive launch monitors.

Great tool but lacking some accuracy
on April 26, 2023
Posted by: Danasnacks
Its a great tool to practice with however I question some of the metrics. I can hit in my garage and it shows spin rates of +6000 and driver distances of 170. Then I go play for real and my distances are more like 210-230. Maybe its my lighting but something is amiss.

Great for indoors, outdoors--not so much yet.
on April 29, 2023
Posted by: AgentInvade
When using this in an indoor driving range, everything works well. It appears to be tracking and projecting my shots. It makes me think I'm a better golfer than I am. When I take this outdoor, the unit only picks up about 12 shots out of a bucket. I've brought out a tape measure, a laser level, tried sunny days, cloudy days, and moved positions around the range in case the backdrop was causing interference. Nothing seems to be working. I may try the mounting plates people are using online but if one is needed, why doesn't Garmin just include it? I'm not picking on Garmin either--I almost exclusively buy Garmin products for anything requiring GPS. Maybe I got a dud.

Easy Setup & Nice Teaching Tool
on April 29, 2023
Posted by: Old Swinger
I've used it at the range twice and from the data I've been able to correct a swing path issue with my wedges. Should help my scoring 5 to 8 shots a round.
It has also been humbling to learn how short I am hitting my driver!

Great device but app needs to be better
on April 29, 2023
Posted by: Ndav51
The device is great. Setup was easy but a bit finicky to pick up RCT balls at first. The Garmin Golf App is atrocious however. Yardages are significantly shorter than E6 and Awesome Golf (which are pretty dead on with yardages). Also the app should have an iPad version to help with simulation.

Really enjoy using my R10 at the range
on May 1, 2023
Posted by: Ghassea
It gives me great feedback for the price point. Sometimes have erratic measures, but I know they're misreads. Would love to have no-ball tracking enabled to practice inside without a net/screen.

Overall quite happy!
on May 1, 2023
Posted by: Timp
Bought ir a month ago and i am quite impressed overall with the unit! The only issue I am experiencing is when playing a simulated round, it does not want to register soft chip shots of 30 yards or less. Hopefully I can figure that issue out, but overall very impressed.
