Absolutely a terrible product
on May 16, 2023
Posted by: DivotMaker07
Can't use it in the basement, it disconnects every time the furnace or A/C kicks on.
Disconnects on the Range and takes forever to reconnect. Misses half of my shots.
I would never buy this again or recommend it to anyone

First time user

Finally purchased and tried out the Garmin R10 after reading several youTube videos on golf simulator devices. The Garmin was well-recommended based on flight results and price point. By no means a scratch player so precise accuracy was not an issue. The access the Home Tee Hero program and the fancier E6 Connect capabilities was the main reasons. Easy to set up and still experimenting with HTH options. Haven't figured out how to record your swing during a driving range session, but I have time.

Perfect for my game

I play every few weeks in the summer only and this device is great to keep me swinging in the winter months and keeping my attention. Use GSPro mostly, loads of fun and helpful statistics to improve my game a bit (15 handicap).

The device seems to work well

Initial problems but just seemed to be due to the app. Now works fine. Useful having all that data. Cannot check the accuracy but the numbers seem reasonable.

Great help for beginner
on May 26, 2023

I have been playing golf for less than a year and the Garmin has helped me tremendously to better my contact and my overall confidence in playing the game. It would have very difficult for me to be able to purchase a more pricey launch monitor so the R10's price is also of great value.

Does not work inside
on May 28, 2023
Posted by: Glberg52
I bought this to use in my basement in the off-season. It works fine at the range but I cannot get it to work at all in my basement despite consulting with Garmin customer service. The readings it gives are ridiculously off. Attached is a screenshot of the data it gave for a well struck sand wedge shot. I know my swing speed was not 159 mph! And if it was, I'm sure it would have gone farther than 38 yards carry. 5 stars for range but 0 stars for indoors.

Very Good Information
on May 29, 2023

I bought the Garmin R10 about a month ago. I set mine up for outdoors hitting into a net. Initially I thought the yardage was short. As I kept using it, the statistics captured allowed me to better understand how to tweak my swing to minimize pulls and pushes. Then my yardage went significantly higher, which seemed to translate onto the course. As other users have commented, there are times that the R10 goes to sleep even before I start my sessions. Although frustrating, the R10 eventually wakes up and I have always been able to record my driving range practice sessions. I believe the R10 has really improved my game and am glad that I purchased it.
