The Garmin is exactly what I was looking for. Compact and perfect on the go. I use it on the range to get accurate distance, ball spin, and ball speed. Very easy set up and I loved that it connects to the Garmin Golf app. The Garmin is perfect for all levels of golfers. I highly recommend.

Great device.

Have been using this for almost a month, and really enjoy it. It is great fun with all the courses you can play in Home Tee Hero. The E6 courses you get for free are awesome too!

Awesome!

The R10 is awesome for on the course, practice, or a makeshift simulator. It's easy to use and set up, I use it in my garage with a net and a mat. Although home tee hero is about 80% of the actual distance, it's still incredibly useful for practice and getting swings in.

Good enough for the price

I like this launch monitor mainly for the price. As far as the accuracy, seems pretty good. The only complaint that I have is every time I start up for the first few minutes it keeps going in and out of connectivity. Other than that myself, and my boys are enjoying it.

Good things come in small packages

I have owned a stationary simulator in the past but the R10 offers more shot information for game improvement. And it fits in my golf bag always ready to provide valuable feedback wherever I am.

Doesn’t work for outdoor range!
on September 30, 2025
Posted by: Dembo34
The unit I received was so sensitive on ball placement and leveling that unless it was all perfect the speed and distance data was wildly off course. When you hit balls on grass you necessarily place each ball in a different position due to divots. Unless you adjust the Garmin for each shot you will get wildly inconsistent shot data.
Note I am not referencing any spin data here because I know that is modeled rather than measured by the unit. I am talking only about the basics of club and ball speed. Some of the shots I hit with wedges were off by 30 yards or more.
The unit might work fine in a controlled, indoor setting but it is essentially worthless for outdoor use.

Ok when it works
on October 1, 2025
Posted by: NateGolf
When you can get it to work its OK. Constantly losing connection or won't work at all. Constantly having to reset it. Wish I would have bought the Rapsodo MLM 2 pro. Disappointed in Garmin.
