The R10 does exactly what I hoped it would! Analytics is everything!

Disappointed

I’ve had this for about a month. I’m using it indoors in my garage. I have plenty of space. It’s great when it captures a shot. But it only captures about 50%~60% of the time. Pretty disappointing! Also difficult to download data from a session.

Works well indoors (Outdoors is TBD)

It's January in WI, using this outdoors won't happen for a while.
I set up a net and mat in my garage for some practice. The net has a black tarp behind it so the R10 (I'm guessing) will see the ball more easily. I seem to miss around 1% of the shots I take, could even be my fault. The issues I am seeing and trying to correct are rather consistent with things I experience during game play.
I also take this to my buddies house and use it in his simulator. The numbers don't always match up between his photo launch monitor and this radar based one. The two units will usually agree on data, just the specifics might be off: 16L vs 9L, or 3450 spin vs 4275, etc. There are more time of the numbers being so close that I accept the differences.
Looking forward to taking it to the range once the snow melts.

Not accurate yet

Distances are reading about 20% short. I tested against a trackman system and was disappointed with accuracy. I am hoping a software update helps.

Unbelievable

Closest thing to a simulator you’ll ever get. The range mode is awesome and if you’re feeling fun get the membership and play whatever course you want to play. The accuracy is out of this world. I am very satisfied but also shocked at how great this product is. I was very skeptical.
