Thank You All 😊
Thanks all for watching. Subscribe, like and Comment. Any questions throw them in the comments and I’ll get back to you 😊
Just purchased an R10 and haven't even taken it out of the box. I did find this useful and noted your comment about needing a basis of comparison. Where I live there are several golf stores that will actually let you rent out a Trackman for given period. Since I don't have Awesome Golf app., I think I could still get good data by renting a Trackman and dialing in my numbers that way. Just thought I would toss this idea out for others who also don't have the Awesome app to provide baseline data. Thanks for all of your reviews; I will definitely be checking them all out. I already plan on making my own metal dots based on another one of your videos 🙂
You’ll love the R10 mate. It’s a fantastic unit and the best value for money 😊
I did this exact same test with GW through 5i and found 99% of the time my yardage was within 3 meters of each other without changing weather settings. Here is the weather settings I had in Garmin app. Luckily i still had an awesome golf trial time to do this comparison. I can be confident in my HTH numbers now, at least confident enough for a high handicap golfer.
Altitude: 4500
Humidity: 47%
Temp: 91F
That’s great 😁 it’s a good feature to the update
Hi David. I've been watching all your videos about the Garmin R10 and I just bought it. I'm wondering it the Spornia SPG7 net would be able to take 200mph+ drives. What do you think? I'm considering this net or the net return v2 pro. I wanted to get a simulator impact screen but my partner wont let me.
Hey mate, I’ve gotten up to about 180mph ball speed and it barely moves so I’m sure you’d be fine 😊
@@davidmaxfieldgolf thanks!
Genius- thanks mate. Love ya work. If you are playing gspro do you have a general set of numbers that you use for every club?
I don’t use GSPro for the R10 but I think now that time has progressed and updates have come through that you probably don’t need to adjust this as much anymore. Just use the RCT balls
@@davidmaxfieldgolfoh ? Still recommend using RCT even with the old metal tape trick ?
When you use the Awesome Golf app with the Garmin R10 is it as accurate as using the Mevo Plus?
I’m not so much worried about my distances as much as I am concerned with slices and hooks. My thoughts are if I have the numbers for my club path and face I can try to work on that to hit straighter shots more often. I’m just not sure if I need to spend all that money on the Mevo Plus Pro Package or if the R10 will be sufficient. Are you in any website forums? Ty I really enjoy your videos
I just did a video comparing it to the GC Hawk, check that out 😁
Any suggestions for getting accurate awesome golf numbers? I am getting consistently low distance even on awesome golf, 7i total for example of 110 and on the garmin app like 90ish yards
It’s all in setup, put the r10 on a stand and have at least 10 feet in front of you
This is cool but tweaking those settings to get accurate numbers is dumb. Awesome golf for me.
I don't disagree. I tried to emphasise that the only way I could trust the numbers was because I'm using awesome golf as a baseline and that to manipulate the numbers to suit what you want can be dangerous because you're just making them to be what you want and they may not be accurate 😊
@@davidmaxfieldgolf I’m sure one day garmin app will be accurate but I’m glad I found your videos. Awesome Golf App is the best. Better than E6 imo
@@zachlyyyy69 thanks mate
Just my 2 pence worth but honestly think i'll put my R10 on ebay. Garmin should be shot for this, why do we have to manipulate figures from a product that cost me over £500? My little pgr monitor is more reliable so if they can get it right why not Garmin ?
Should be better now if you’ve updated it
Bit of a hassle changing for every club especially if your playing a round . To much hassle be there all night fucking around with settings
I agree, it can be finicky
Thanks David
Is there a rule of thump or is every club deferent? Have had my R10 for a while But cant justify another £200 +10 a month
Could you post you numbers for each club Please!
I would use the numbers from the last shot of each club as they were the ones getting the closest results 😊
Thanks David for all these great videos. I have a very fundamental doubt and please pardon my ignorance, how are you basically saying that Awesome Golf is more accurate? What’s your baseline Launch Monitor for Awesome Golf compared to Garmin Launch Monitor with Awesome Golf?
I’ve compared awesome golf with GC quad and they were giving me basically the same numbers so that’s why I use it as my baseline
@@davidmaxfieldgolf Thank you for your prompt response. I ordered Garmin R10 and will share my feedback eventually.
@@harshar1878 you’ll love it mate 👍🏼
Hi David! Just bought mine after your reviews (Garmin should pay you a commission for my sale) and noticed a drop in my distances with Garmin Golf. Your video explains a Lot!
I just downloaded Awesome Golf to see how it goes tomorrow.
What I don't understand is, Garmin doesn't have to invent the wheel as Awesome Golf already (and your video) did!
Will I have to change everything, every time I use Garmin golf then?
And donit for every club?
If that's the case, is not fun... what's the case of using and paying Garmin the subscription?
Thanks for your help with your videos!
Thanks mate, I would suggest just using awesome golf to be honest. The Garmin golf app isn’t very good. Awesome golf corrects a lot of issues
@@davidmaxfieldgolf 100% agree!
I’ve used 5100, 65%, 85*F and my numbers seem to be within +/-3 yds to the same numbers as I got at xGolf with my 7 iron and driver for the Garmin app.
Do these adjustments affect Awesome Golf or does Awesome Golf work well with no adjustments?
The adjustments should affect awesome golf but if not you can adjust it in awesome golf also
Confusing part to me is awesome golf. Why is awesome golf accurate? Wouldn't like a GC Quad or Trackman be the most accurate, and then adjust your numbers accordingly?
I’ve compared awesome golf to GC quad. Checkout that video 😊
So you have to adjust every bit when you play the home tee hero?
Not anymore you don’t
Without putting this against another monitor or actually measuring each shot at a range you’re just making changes till your happy with the results. There is no accuracy here imo. I own a R10 and I’m quite happy with the results carry and distance wise when using the weather conditions native to my area. A lot of the other info I’m skeptical of but for the price I’m quite happy with this moniter. But will definitely be upgrading when it doesn’t brake the bank.
I agree 100% awesome golf and the r10 is definitely accurate though which is why I used it as a baseline
Well done mate 👍👍👍👍 Garmin should hire you to be the part of their team soon !!😊
They should lol 😂 hard to get in touch with though
all well and good that it can be adjusted, but you've still gotta pay for baseline numbers from a better source like awesome gold etc which is super frustrating 😬
Yeah or use e6
i actually sold my r10 a while back and bought some new irons 😂
looking at another r10 or mevo+ so I'm checking the r10 progress over the last 6 months.
your content is still top notch mate😉
@@kevinconnolly754 thank you mate, much appreciated. Can’t go wrong with the R10. It’s always getting better 😊
I'm looking into this unit for a basic launch monitor not really concerned about spin and all that mostly just looking for club /ball ,smash factor and carry yardages .how accurate in your experience are all those numbers to what you'd see on the course? Seems like one may be the move for me witb the added simulator bonus
It’s been spot on for me. The Awesome Golf App and the R10 is a fantastic combo
Great video, only had the R10 for 2 days and was suspicious about the distances, seeing your video explains it. I will use both awesome golf and Garmin. Very likely Garmin will see videos like this and change their algorithms. Great detective work.
Cheers
Yeah their algorithms are getting better and better which is very exciting. It’s crazy to think how good the unit it for the money!
David, what Altitude should I enter in Awesome Golf to start my baselining?
Just use you local weather settings
@@davidmaxfieldgolf Will do, thanks David.
My wife will only allow me to use foam balls in the house. Can you see if there is a big difference between foam balls and real balls? Thank you in advance!
There is quite a difference. I have done a video on the awesome golf balls but you could adjust the altitude to suit
@@davidmaxfieldgolf - Found the video! Thanks!
Do you have to set the weather conditions every time or can these be saved? Can you do the same when playing home tee hero? If so, do you have to just set one temp, humidity and altitude for the full round? Thanks for the info!
Not anymore 😁 will auto calculate it
@@davidmaxfieldgolf sweet! So you don’t recommend changing the weather conditions now then? Guess they updated their software to be more accurate?
@@patr6337 use the local weather conditions
Thanks David, got my R10 earlier this week and have been putting it through it's paces.
One thing I can't get my head around... if Awesome Golf is using the data that it is seeing from the R10, why can't Garmin get the same level of accuracy?
It can, but it’s just a work in progress. Algorithms for different apps are running off different calculations so awesome golf would have their own algorithms just like Garmin and that’s where the difference is
Thing is that’s a hassle is that you have to change settings every time you change clubs
It is indeed
Hi , which are the numbers for your Drive in Garmin Golf such as altitude Humidity and Temp?? Thanks
I use the elevation as the main driver and the others to fine tune 😊
@David Maxfield Golf thanks for your answer, but what altitude should I put approximately to have more precision in the data?
@@piloto8893 you can if you like. It’s a bit of playing around really but you can
I can't read the longer golf clubs
I can't read well from the 5 iron, and I can't read from the h4.
What should I do? I tried moving r10, but it's the same
Send me a pic of your setup on Instagram
@@davidmaxfieldgolf what setup? golf net?
@@davidmaxfieldgolf I wonder if it also affects the distance between the golf ball and the net...
Great video👍
Thanks mate 😊
Thanks David!! Do you think the same approach can be used to help fix the distances on Home Tee Hero?
I think it could but you just can’t change the values through the round for each club
Remember when you could swipe between shot analysis screens? Garmin, please bring that back.
Thanks for the insight and posting this video!
A lot of people did like the swop function that’s for sure 😊
Another great video. Appreciate the extent to which you dig into these issues. Interesting that one can manipulate the variables (altitude, temp, humidity) to get the distances one desires for each club, rather than setting the unit up for the conditions at one's own club/range location. Nice to see that you can get the desired distances on Garmin to coincide with Awesome Golf for each club. That's a lot of setting manipulation when you are hitting 8 or 10 clubs out at the range. Per Fdo Lobo's question, is there an average setting that would give more accurate Garmin results (than the standard R10 settings) yet not require manipulation of settings each time we change clubs?
I’d probably say the best average setting would be to enable the location settings and use those
Hi David, I need your help if possible, I only have a Samsung to connect with my R10, but I'm unable to get the new version uploaded into my unit. Any tips please
You need to plug it into a desktop and update it through Garmin Express
@@davidmaxfieldgolf Thanks for that mate 👍
@@steveharris5657 that should automatically update it to the latest version
no need to have awesome golf (especially considering it's price). you either need to have garmin watch and then you really know what are your distances or laser and check it couple of times. you don't really know that awesome golf numbers are ok... you have to know from the course and only then you can say they are ok but then you can also say that garmin app distances are off by certain number. 👊
That’s not really the case. See on my course, it’s a links course and plays different every day depending on the wind conditions. One day I can be hitting a 7 iron 165m and the next 145m so the elements play a big role. Where electronics are great is to give you base numbers. Awesome golf for me read the same numbers and data as Gc Quad so that’s why I use that as my standard 👍🏼😊
Thanks Dave, you the man!! Even GC Quad cane manipulated with Weather etc. You can only be really sure on course as conditions vary so much everywhere.
100% agree. On my home course I rarely his a stock number anyway because the wind plays a massive factor
My garmin intermittently not record the swing...frustrating
Have you plugged it into a desktop and updated through Garmin Express?
@@davidmaxfieldgolf yes...is yours working fine?
Thanks for the quick reply
I don’t really understand how having to change variables for every club is okay. First off it means that the weather settings in HTH aren’t accurate. I could understand that manipulating it once for the first club and then all clubs are accurate would be easily understood as a difference between apps. But having to change the variables for every club? You might as well just use Awesome Golf. And that is assuming that Awesome Golf is spot on. There is a video where a player and buddy with a flag laser every shot carry distance and compare to one of the apps. Can’t remember which. But that would be the only true measurement of accuracy. Just my opinion.
I agree with you. It’s more accurate with the RCT balls now
Do you have to do this every time for every club when using Garmin Golf? Or are these values saved in Garmin Golf. Also, how are you running both apps at same time?
Need to have the Garmin app running in the background and hit from the awesome golf app first
A couple questions; What prompts your decision to manipulate the altitude vs the relative humidity vs temperature to increase the Garmin's accuracy? Do you find that adjusting one parameter, eg. altitude gets greater changes (+ or - yardage) whereas another is better for fine tuning the numbers? I'm trying to assess when each of these should be appropriately tweaked. Also once you get the correct numbers for a given club--based on tweaking altitude, humidity, and temperature--do you find that you get equally accurate numbers for that club several weeks later or do you have to go through the whole process again?
It was just to match awesome golfs numbers, however now I would just use the location settings
@@davidmaxfieldgolf using the location will now match accurate numbers of AG? Just started my research of the apps. Excuse my ignorance. LOL
@@FloppyMusher it will yes
I really don't get why it's taking so long for Garmin to sort out the short distances issue. It's been there from day 1 and it's still there today. We shouldn't have to do calculations to get accurate data. If Awesome golf can do it, then surely Garmin can. It may be a cheap unit as these devices go, but its still a very expensive device. We shouldn't have to fork out hundreds of pounds more for third party software. Very frustrating.
I hear you. I think they’re trying and really they aren’t far away. At this stage maybe 5m across the board on average
Hi David and thanks for all your videos :-) I've just purchase the R10 and tried the Awesome golf App, it's really nice ! (It's just a bit annoying that you couldn't download all your datas to do a post analysis at home as I'm using it at my home club driving range. If you know how to extract all that, I would be happy to hear about ;-) ) Anyway, concerning the accuracy of the Awesome App distance. Do we know in which weather condition the app is calculating it ? If it's cold outside, and hitting range balls, will that affect my distance in the app ? I'm playing today for example, it's gonna be cold, but I don't know if I should relate on the distance data from awesome golf app. Or if I should consider that are the datas in perfect condition (sunny and hot day) and therefore, adapt the awesome golf calculated distances to the weather/temperature condition when I'm on the course ?
I’d say in that aspect you would need to check the settings of awesome golf. E6 and Garmin golf can definitely manipulate to your local conditions.
Entertaining video once again! However, I am honestly more concerned with accurate numbers for lateral movement of the ball. That might be because I live in Japan and the courses here are built into the sides of mountains and even hitting 20 yards off target can be an OB. Since I installed the latest upgrade I have also found that club plane numbers have changed a bit even in Awesome Golf. I am finding the it reads the club coming from outside in more than it used to. Have you encountered anything similar to that?
Yeah awesome golf is by far the best and I agree with you. What some people don’t realise is that awesome golf is not restricted to just the R10. It’s also on flightscope Mevo and a bunch of other units. So with just that alone the software has to be more accurate
Adjusting per club? That seems ridiculous. How are you supposed to play an HTH round if you have to adjust for every club? Beyond tedious and will take forever. Glad garmin is rolling out updates, but hopefully they keep improving upon this as my numbers are completely out of whack now. Thanks for videos, as always.
It is tricky yes. For HTH aid just suggest using the current location settings
Wonderful, but you said it, E6, how does that compare instead of Awesome as baseline?
The squawking birds in the background is a beautiful touch as well. 😂😂😂
E6 was actually very close for me with the base numbers to awesome golf so that would work fine 😊
Thanks for showing this method to adjust Garman app, curious to know what the difference will be using my driver?
Hard to say, think that would change individually.
Good one, would also be handy to know all your settings for anyone that has about the same swing speed
I went through them through the video each time I adjusted them so if you go to the last shot of each one that should give them to you 😊😁
Love the videos. About to purchase a R10 so I've been watching tons of you, good content! Can I ask why you would need to go back and fourth to get the accurate numbers? Is it just to play the garmin courses? Why wouldn't you just only use the awesome golf app?
Well I just collate them for people. In most of my practise and videos it’s Awesome Golf 😊
Another killer video!
David: what enclosure and screen are you using in this video? This looks like a setup that might work for my space…thanks!
Thanks Matt, it's a 24/7 golf simulator. You can use my promo code DMX200 to save yourself a couple hundred bucks. link should be in the description :)
Thanks for showing the visual display on awesome Golf, shows you the important stats in quick easy to read format. I would think Garmin and E6 could or should fashion something similar without getting copyright infringement lol.
They could
Maybe I have ADD here, but are you connecting both Awesome Golf and Garmin Golf App to the same device simultaneously?
Yup 👍🏼 😊
The left and right deviations are just to low ; even what you call a bad shot the left /right error is 6-10 meter for a 200 meter shot . Join the tour with those numbers . The garmin is a toy and might be ok for distance but left/right is just bad data
Same as what I saw in GC quad when I did the comparison there. I also have another comparison coming up with the Mevo+
Thanks David, your videos are amazing as an r10 owner. What do you think is preventing Garmin from getting their calculation algorithms more accurate? If Awesome Golf can do it, Garmin should too, right? It's a software issue.
Think it’s just an algorithm thing. Interestingly the total distance is often very close to awesome Golfs Carry distance
David, are you running both Garmin and Awesome Golf simultaneously, on the same device? I tried that on an iPad and split screen was not supported for these specific apps. What devices are you using?
I’m using an iPad. You need to have both apps open at the same time and hit from awesome golf first the swipes across to the Garmin App
So…basically carry on using awesome golf?
Yup 👍🏼
Nice Work, was thinking a change would affect all clubs at once, not be able to have a setup per club, question though does it remember after you have turned it off or do you you ahve to tweak again each time you use.? thanks again
Gotta tweak it each time
Thank you David! I had seen alot of people talking about this, but it's great to get your thoughts on it and also your settings. 👍
Thank you mate 😊👍🏼
Great video, my question is how can you open both apps at the same time to record same shot on both. I run both awsome golf and garmin range on my android phone.
On Apple you need to have them both open at the same time and then hit the shit from awesome golf first
Do you think that tinkering with these parameters could get better results with the „almost golf balls“ ?
Yes for sur e
Any new holes in the garage roof?
Not yet 🤞
Thanks for the video! Bought an R10 and just wondering which app would be most accurate for the driving range. I saw a video demonstrating that E6 Connect is more accurate than Awesome Golf. Wondering if that would be the same case on the range or if Garmin Golf is better. Thank you!
I like awesome golf personally. I find e6 fade bias but whatever you’re comfortable with. I think they’re all quite good
@@davidmaxfieldgolf Thank you 🙏🏻
To be able to play the Garmin courses accurately, do you have a general elevation increase you suggest for all clubs?
I would just play them on face value without adjusting anything and just hit as though it was 1 club short personally 😊
So…. You have to know what the right numbers are in order to get the right numbers. Hmm.
Yeah it’s a bit of a tricky balance but you don’t want to just make them up
Hi David. Thanks again for another video. Very appreciated. So once you have your « settings » for each club, are we sure that it is constant ? If you try again in a week and compare the numbers, will we be spot on again…
Before the recording I was trialing it with a 7 iron myself and the numbers were spot on then when I got to those same numbers here in this video they were spot on again. Where that may change is if Garmin has an update and the numbers get fixed
Hey dave do ya get awesome golf free with the r10 or is it a subscription?
It’s a separate app that you’ll have to pay for 😊👍🏼
David thanks for this video... much appreciated. Assuming that the Garmin Golf app allows you to save each custom setting to the specific club your testing? I see you adjusting weather conditions for each club but don't see them being saved
No it doesn’t but I will say with the update the local settings are very accurate now.
@@davidmaxfieldgolf when was the last update? Just purchased Garmin R10
It was surreal to see you hitting balls like a real human, rather than a cyborg. Did you take a week off beforehand? 😀Thank you for your efforts to inform the Garmin R10 community. I knew about fiddling with the altitude, but it was striking to see the comparison with Awesome Golf, and the acknowledgement that some adjustment might be needed in the first place.
Yeah had some time off but also started a new gym routine, no excuses though. Some days are off
@@davidmaxfieldgolf I saw one of your workouts. I'm a long time gym rat too. Have a gym at home, one at the office, and a couple of additional memberships. Like you said, that's golf.
Would you need to do this after each Garmin update to ensure your numbers(elevations/Temp) haven't changed with the new algorithms?
Yes 👍🏼
@@davidmaxfieldgolf just saw the update on RCT balls for the Garmin R10. I'm sure you will do another video on them..... Hopefully soon! Thanks for the quick reply
Thanks for the video I was just about to cancel my subscription and get GSPRO but I’ll keep it for now thanks to you. Do you know if you have to change these factor at driving range too or just when you are indoors hitting into a net?
You will have to change them there too 😊
Ok thanks
Why would you do this . Why not just use awesome golf?
That’s a great question. Personally even though you can get accurate numbers, doing this all the time would get tiring. I agree, just get awesome golf
A limitation here is my home course where I’d mostly use the r10 on the range is at 3000ft but I often go to the coast to play as well. I’d love to be able to use the weather adjustable to adjust for this…so I can understand how that change in elevation will affect my distances.
Yeah I hear ya mate, it’s a fantastic unit but it’s not perfect. Still great for practice though
Thanks David, great video. I think I will just use an average for weather conditions. This may be somewhere else but is there a similar adjustment for range balls versus regular balls
I’m holding that being that algorithm in. Flightscope has an adjustment for range balls and it’s very good
@@davidmaxfieldgolf sorry David don’t quite understand first sentence
@@driankatz sorry, I’m hoping that they bring that algorithm in. There is one on flightscope
@@davidmaxfieldgolf do you think you can manipulate weather conditions to take into account range balls versus normal balls?
@@driankatz you could yes
So I get changing elevations and what not for the range but is there a good way to do this on an actual round of sim golf? Can you change elevation on every shot based on club (assuming you know your numbers)?
Also, is the E6 range similar to awesome golf in the sense of accuracy?
E6 is similar yes, and unfortunately not during a sim golf round. You’d just have to set your elevation at your location and play from there
@@davidmaxfieldgolf thanks for the content. I set elevation to 4500 and humidity to 65% and 85 F. It seemed closer with all of my clubs than before. I might have to just run that setup for HTH. If it’s 5% off I can justify it for the cheap subscription price compared to e6, awesome golf, and tgc19. I want GSPro but I don’t think my computer can run it unfortunately. Someday…. Thanks again.
@@stevenscott3881 I’m the same with GSPro they need an IOS version and App.
So, do you think you can now use Almost Golf balls and tweak the settings to get something accurate? New video!?!
You could yes, and that would be a good video 😁
@@davidmaxfieldgolf I hope you do it, I don't have all that gear. Just took the clubs out for the first time in over 10 years yesterday!
@@joeslatt that’s awesome mate, hope it went well
Great video! I still am running into issues and thinking it may be the nature of the set up... I have my R10 8ft behind my ball which is 8ft from my hitting net. The R10 is on a stand that is level with my mat and a laser pointer for accuracy so I know that is bang on. My issue is that both the Garmin app AND Awesome Golf are showing distances 10-25yds short than what my stock shots are. I'm curious if it may be due to my net since it is simply a mesh golf net unlike the Spornia that you used which had a flat black material. Have you seen any issues with the R10 reading shots hit directly into a mesh net? I'm curious if I would see better results with a solid target-maybe it would work better if I hung a bedsheet in front of the net...? Let me know your experience and thank you so much for the videos!
Hey Dean, maybe send me a pic of the setup on Instagram and I can trouble shoot with you 👍🏼
How did this pan out ? And luck with better numbers ?
@@dat67 I took it on course and reviewed it there also
Your welcome for the comments on the previous video that lead to this.
But I saw another random video that showed this info and wanted you to be aware.
Your video is more in depth then the other so this is very much appreciated.
I’m preparing as we speak as I have my R10 but waiting for my monster mat and net return pro to arrive to finally start using it.
Thanks again for all the videos on R10 … you just got my Sub! 👍🏼
Thank you mate, yeah I did make sure to mention and say thanks to those who commented on the last video and for the request of this one 😊 gotta give credit where it’s due.
@@davidmaxfieldgolf Ya I saw that at the end ... for me I stole the info elsewhere and just let you know. Weird how this works and I wish I knew my actual true yardages per club so I can find a good average but I guess in time I will figure all that out.
Looking forward to seeing more R10 videos moving forward .... and now I'm scared of putting a hole in my finished garage roof! LMAO :)
@@chrisimes478 LOL 😂 easy patch from the hardware store and no one has to know. e6 will give you pretty close numbers in my opinion. Awesome Golf is still the gold standard for me but if that's not an option then e6 is near enough 😊
Thanks! Do the changes you make carry over to Home Tee Hero?
I believe they do but you can’t change it for each club
Thanks for the video.
May I ask how you turn Garmin App on landscape mode? Is it the new update on Garmin? or do you have to install another app to run it?
It’s finicky but you have to swipe your screen down, click screen monitoring then swipe back up and it will appear with the option to turn into landscape mode
@@davidmaxfieldgolf Thanks, it works.
@@prakitkaewkaorop8196 awesome mate, glad I could help
just curious how close are you to the impact screen?
about 7 foot
Is awesome golf driving range always free?
No you’ll get a free trial. The Garmin Driving range is free
I try to understand why the result with awesome is accurate but not in garmin app ?!
Different algorithms
@@davidmaxfieldgolf And e6 is also a different algorithm ? Because for me it seems to be close to Garmin
They all have their own algorithms on how they interpret the data 😊
Good tutorial. But how do you get both apps running simultaneously to compare data?
Have one running in the background 😁
@@davidmaxfieldgolf can you explain how you do that?
good timing 👏 👌
😊👍🏼
Assuming you have access to Awesome Golf and you know what you want your final numbers to be, how do you know which metrics to adjust? How does elevation affect the number vs humidity vs temperature? Is it all just trial and error?
A little bit yes. Unfortunately it’s not perfect but it’s getting better
Hey, great videos! Question, can you look at past range statistics using awesome golf?
Unfortunately not, I just screenshot or screen recording
@@davidmaxfieldgolf Thanks for the suggestion, that should work fine for now. I just received a reply back from Awesome Golf regarding this, and they informed me this feature would be added by Q4 of this year - something to look forward to.
@@stevestotter4339 that’s great. It’s a popular request
Nice work. It seems ridiculous that the user community needs to do this manipulation, this seems a relatively simple adjustment to their algorithm.
The idea behind it is to use the location settings. But they’re still short
I agree with this. Can’t they just have an adjustable parameter like ‘Add % distance’ that could be moved up and down for these adjustments?
So the R10 will connect to two devices at the same time running different software? I would like to do this with my iPad running E6 and phone running Garmin app.
You need to run them both off the iPad. Just have both apps open and hit from e6 first
Thank you very much for your Garmin R10 videos. It would be nice if you could make a video or two about things to try in the setup for people like me that haven't been able to make it work indoors. Thanks.
I’ve got a video on my channel about how to setup for accurate numbers have you seen that? I set up the same indoor as well as outdoor 😊
Yes, but it doesnt work for me. I contacted with Garmin and they answered that they know about indoor problems and they're working on it. What I mean is a video about things to try if your setup doesnt work, like placing the ball further than 8 feet from the net or rising the R10 much above, whatever. Thanks.
@@DiegoPerez-ot5jl could you send me a photo of your setup on Instagram? I’ll take a look and trouble shoot with you 😊
That would be fantastic. I'm at work right now. As soon as possible I will give all the information I've got so maybe you could give me some clue about what's going wrong with my setup. Thank you very much.
@@DiegoPerez-ot5jl no probs mate 👍🏼
Great video David. Thanks
Thanks mate 😊
Hi David! Just set up my Garmin r10 in the yard and it worked very good. One thing i wondered.. I see people talk about it showing their shots doesnt go as far as irl. With me its the oposite. I thought my pw normaly carried about 110meters, but on the r10 i carry it around 120. Thats on awesome golf. Some settings Im ignoring? Cheers!
WhT you’re probably finding is that you’re just hitting it further in the simulator because there’s no consequences like on course. In a simulator I’ll hit my 7 iron 165m carry but on course it’s always about 155-160m because I’m trying to place it rather than just hit it
@@davidmaxfieldgolf Thanks mate. That makes sense. I am smahing it into the net rather then placing it like on the course. Btw, im trying out the callaway rogue st pro’s this week after watching your and some other reviews! Not shure ill be able ro get any pure strikes with them but lets see 😂
@@fore8735 you’ll be super surprised at how easy they are to hit. They’re incredible. I think the most versatile iron on the market for the largest handicap range. Everyone from scratch to 25 handicap could play those.
@@davidmaxfieldgolf Cant wait to try them out! Tried the p790’s from a buddy of mine but didnt hit them any better than the cobras i have now so just hope i wont be disapointed.
@@fore8735 you wont 😊 they’re much better than the P790’s and way better looking too. Much sleeker and thinner sole for better turf interaction.
Life saver my dude 🤟🏽
Thanks mate, glad you like it 👍🏼
🙌🏼🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Yes!!!!
😊👍🏼
What other launch monitor are u using besides the R10?
Here I’m just using the r10 and I do most of my stuff on it. But I have used Mevo+ and GC quad a lot
Do you use the R10 to run awesome golf? I thought u were using the R10 and another launch monitor when you were comparing? I have an R10 and I have been trying to figure out how to do this, I was going to take it up to an indoor golf simulator and see if I could get a baseline of numbers, then I would know where to set it when I’m home outside hitting balls. My R10 also shows a push on most of my shits and I’m pretty certain they are not. Thank you for all the info on the R10 and all the content!!!!
*shots…..Lol
@@johnnyhershberger6294 Thanks mate, I use the 1 R10 unit for both apps and run the apps at the same time. You just have to have the Garmin Golf app open and make sure you hit from awesome golf first then it will work perfectly 😊
Awesome! Thank you! Great discovery, that’s a little easier than going to a simulator! Appreciate your videos!
Hey David, love your videos reviewing R10. I feel like I'm almost on the verge of buying one after all your videos, so thanks for the info. Quick question. I'm somewhat new to golf but keen to get more practice in and think this will be perfect. However, do you think it'll measure shanks etc. fairly accurately/ easily? Clearly, you're a good golfer so your 'side' movement is fairly minimum . I guess I want fairly accurate information on side-to-side / ball flight data so I know I'm improving. Basically, is there more error for someone fairly raw to golf? Hope this makes sense? Thanks in advance.
Hey Travis, Absolutely and I've hit plenty of shanks don't you worry LOL! for the most accuracy I like to have at least 8 foot from ball to screen/net. the more the better in that aspect as it reads the ball flight longer. and about 7 foot from the ball to the R10 unit. A few of my pro mates use the R10 and love it
@@davidmaxfieldgolf Thanks mate, appreciate it. Good to see an Aussie creating some good golf content ;) I was definitely concerned that because it doesn't seem to read side spin all that well (in some circumstances) it may draw instead of a fade etc, or won't show a slice when I hit one bad. Not that I expect it to be perfect for an $879 device, but definitely want it to teach me some things (while having some fun).
@@TravEnglish I'm about to film a video tonight that will help all that. This will blow your mind, stay tuned for that when it drops
Wow. Go you. Thanks.
While you can mod the values, how does that work when playing the garment courses?
You’d have to adjust it as a whole. It is a limitation
Again these videos are great. One thing i would like to hear is what is your awesome golf firmness setting for roll out beyond carry distance, the options are 1-5 for me the roll out and the area I play 4 is a more accurate assessment from what i see on the local courses. Secondly HTH I don't like the idea still of having to slide the altitude, weather, etc. settings to try and dial in each club. I mean its better but i should be able to say my elevation is 1200 ft (like where i live) and set the weather to what i see on the course and see the same results not way off results. I still like Awesome golf better, but good to see Garmin is at least giving it some attention on the shortcomings of HTH.
Yeah it’s finicky to adjust it all the time and it’s not perfect but they’re adding some cool stuff to it. My ground firmness I think is set to medium
way to much if you have to do this for each club
Agreed
nearly fell over when i looked at the price of awesome golf, hopefully it becomes a little more affordable
I think a subscription model is coming
Hi David - I'm enjoying your content. How did you initially conclude that Awesome golf had the more reliable/accurate metrics for your baseline?
Compared it to gc quad with the same ball at the same time 😊
Is there any adjustment required in Awesome golf or is that just correct off the start?
I haven’t got an R10 yet but would prefer to have peace of mind with numbers off the start rather than manipulating what I don’t know to be correct
@@User1326655 awesome golf is correct from the start
@@davidmaxfieldgolf thanks mate. Keep up the good work in your vids. New to the channel but enjoying what I’ve seen 👍🏼
@@User1326655 thank you mate, appreciate it and glad you like the content
You might want to look up what the word Accurate means. The fact that you have to "manipulate" the settings calls into question the accuracy of this unit. Additionally, you're trying to make the distances from the two apps identical. How do you even know your "baseline" is accurate? I'll be buying a Bushnell and be done with this whole nonsense.
Checkout my comparison against GC Quad using awesome golf 👍🏼
