I just bought this and I own 4 launch monitors… I bought it mainly for angle of attack The new software connects immediately to my phone, the latency issue is about 1 1/2 second… so far I am impressed much easier to connect and set up than my Mevo plus and very portable. Not…

I have several launch monitors I have a Skytrak on my simulator in the garage… I bought this to take to the range and on course… so far the accuracy is as good as my SC4 original which I am selling… I wanted the attack angle. Just ordered the golf speaker that pairs with it!

I had the Blue Tees Rainmaker for a few weeks and it was bad. It literally took 7-8 seconds for the ball to register on the screen while playing GSPro. It also did not pick up short chips. I literally had to blast one away from the green if I was close to then hit on the green…

Just a quick note of support for the Eye Mini Core - cheaper than the Lite which makes paying for the Uneekor Gameday subscription more tolerable. Not all the club data, but perfect for those that are trying to dial in distances and map their bag (PC req’d). I have the Rainmaker…

I used the Blue tees rainmaker a month or so ago and also have played with the LM1. I liked both (especially at their price points). I may end up picking up the rainmaker as it seemed to do really well at the outdoor range at Chambers Bay where I do most of my practicing. I…

I own one and to be honest I’m convinced all it tracks is club speed and ball speed. My spin rate with driver averages 2800 on a gc quad. Rainmaker claims my driver spin rate is around 5500.

I had similar results. ball speed was about the only "accurate"/consistent stat. I returned the product within a week.

Iv got the sc4 pro as well. It’s great but for some reason I keep getting error code so I can’t sync any information or use the app. I’ve tried different email addresses different phones different iPads deleting my account restarting the account. Nothing works and voice caddy now…

Returned mine as it couldn’t give me accurate distances and shot shape. Felt like an early beta tester and the app didn’t even have full Functionality with the game app for distances.

Just started the return of mine. First I was feeling like a beta tester with software that wasn’t yet comparable with all the devices it stated. Not all functions working at the time it arrived and was wishing to test it. The unit just wasn’t accurate, as many shots hit let’s say…

@bigbucksbitcoin2883good catch. I meant 3 weeks. Got it right around father’s day. I used to rent the Full Swing monitor at the range but spin numbers were always way off. I’ve only used this one about 5 times because my son stole it but it seemed fine in my testing and spin…

The second I saw the shot delay it became completely pointless for sim golf. Atrocious, inexcusable delay.

The product was just rushed to market. MLM 2 pro is the overall king in budget monitors in my opinion. I’ve had it for a month. The combine feature is really helping me improve.

I had it for a week and sent it back. Didn’t read half my shots. It got a lot of them wrong. BIG delay after your shot. No IPHONE APP is crazy. I was thoroughly disappointed man.

I just had this thing for a couple weeks and sent it back. If you swing over 120 with driver it couldn’t read my balls. I was outdoors. It’s a cool device but not very accurate. Go buy a used flight scope Mevo+ for the same money.

So far with mine, I would say it is very inconsistent. The reason, I believe is line. If you hit your shot right down the line the numbers are solid. If you hit the ball right of the line (draw or fade) it reads probably 20% shirt and real high on spin. If you hit it left of the…

In my experience after 4 sessions outdoors, it’s been a pretty big let down. I’m meticulous in my setup and had a hard time getting consistency from it. The biggest area for concern for me was club path. This was the main reason that I bought it and the metrics were ALL over the…

There is no on board camera for alignment. However, we agree, alignment is absolutely critical for some of the data parameters, such as club path data and horizontal launch data metrics.

I bought one and received and returned in 6 days. Terribly accuracy, the non integration with e6 yet advertised as such as well as buggy app and reading the ball. No one pays $599 to be a beta tester.
