I have found my Approach R10 easy to set-up, pretty accurate, and easy to use. Love it.
I had ES14, Rapsodo, SC200, SC300i and lastly I got the R10 but even though I spend the most with the R10, I have the best experience and also have fun playing the simulator after a short practice session at the local range. Of course I would love the putting feature but can't ask that much for $600 priced device. I tried all the courses I am familiar with and are pretty accurate on distance and bunker locations, etc. So I love it!
Well done. I had an R10 for a minute and cannot disagree with any of these points. Why I spent the money for a GC3 - well except the putting.
I am torn between mlm pro2, voice caddie sc4 and garmin r10. Which shows the most accurate slices, hooks and swing path angle?
I just ordered mine yesterday. Look forward to the 5 reasons why should buy it! I like your stuff keep it up!
Nice! You're not going to be disappointed :)
Where did you buy it?
@@truejayoh Carl’s Golfland they have a web site
How do you like it ?
I was all about buying an affordable launch monitor and went through everything 2k and below (Mevo, Mevo+, Rhapsodo, Garmin R10, SC200+, SC300i, and last, but not least, the PRGR). They all have their plusses and minuses…you pointed out some for the R10. I would add it’s a pain to set up on the range. Because it measures (or calculates - like you, had a tough time tracking down facts) curve, if you don’t have it set up exactly square, your shot shape will be way off. If you hit off mats, not that big a deal until you change targets. I hit off grass, so you have to keep adjusting it whenever you move around your ball position…PITA and took away from the experience…as for the algorithm…I didn’t find it very accurate many times and it was just too much to deal with, never knowing if you captured accurate data or not…sent it back. Stuck with the PRGR for a while as I found it easy to set up and very accurate. Even took it with me to my club fitting where they were using a Trackman and set it up side by side…it was within a few digits on what it measures…However, you can’t scroll through individual shots, so I bought a Mevo for that and it works great. Just set and forget except for club selection. Just put my airpod in, and it tells me the data I want without having to read it…
Did you find the MEVO PLUS better than just the Mevo?
@@prochr0744 I found both to be very accurate compared to all the others in the price range. For me, though, the Mevo+ had more parameters to look at, which is what I was looking for. I geek out on golf gear and always swapping grips, shafts, heads, etc…so, the Mevo+ makes it very easy to input all those different combinations to track, as well as all the parameters to compare.
All those reasons for me are like... The 5 reasons why i bought the Garmin R10, Best bang for your buck ! (But yeah, kinda hard to find one...wonder why?) aye, cause its so great. But its true, if money is not a thing for you, then get launch Pro, uneekor or mevo plus
Can't believe you didn't mention that it needs LOTS of space indoors. If you don't have 15 feet or more between ball and net then the output is very inconsistent
Yeah that's a really good point, and one I literally just brought up in a Bushnell Launch Pro video...
If you are a mid to high handicap golfer this the R10 is perfect for you. If you are a pro or high level amateur competitive golfer go spend the money on a high end model that gives you numbers accurate to the foot or yard, you need it. The R10, with subscription, gives you all the sim courses and sim tournaments as well if you want to go that route for about $100 a year.
and a comment for the algorithm (liked and subscribed)
I love the R10 but there is one issue that I do have with the device. I am a 'club waggler' in my pre shot routine and this messes with the R10. If you have a pre shot routine that you go through and have been doing it for a long time it might give you fits.
Thanks for pointing this out! I haven't had issues with this, but great to know for others who might have a similar pre-shot routine.
never miss your videos you convinced me not to buy the r10 interested in the swing caddie 300 i looks easy to set up
Glad you enjoy them! Happy to answer any questions about any of these devices. The reasons TO buy the R10 video will drop later this week.
You cant broadcast to a projector. With R10 you can. And properly set up, the numbers are good. And the new titleist ball picks up the spin rate ...legit.
Great stuff buddy.
Got mine last week, after waiting since February.
I used it for the 2nd time on the range today, and distance and flight path seem spot on, which leads me to believe clubhead speed & ball speed are equally spot on.
However, spin rate, angle of attack & other metrics are a bit all over the place, sometimes.
Also, the device seems to struggle with wedges (perhaps because when I hit full wedges they go towering into the air?). Distance & flight path again are OK, again club head speed & ball speed seem pretty consistant, but spin rate of 1000?, or 12,000?
I think it has to do with the fact you have to enter your club (& loft), and tries to extrapolate the numbers from that.
E.g. my 7-iron is a 12-year old Taylormade r9 TourPrefered, with 34° of loft, where as my buddy has a 31° Ping 7-iron 525 or 424 (I forgot what exact nr), which should give completely different calculated spin rates & the likes.
BUT, it did get me to the range twice this last week, which I hadn't done in ages & I looked back at my swing & ball flight, which already saw some minor improvement in grip, alignment, takeaway, club path & ball flight. So yeah, totally worth the money for me.
Question, did you try the R10 on course as well? And if so, how did it work for you?
Because, so far I've only used range balls & I know I hit my Honma TW-S balls about 10 yards further for wedges & 30-40 yards further for driver.
I've never used it on the course, but have used it a bunch on the range, and have had pretty accurate results for the most part - more so than I expected for the price.
I love it. It’s good for what you pay.
does anyone use their R10 with 'almost' golf balls? If so, how accurate do you think it is? thanks!
... all you had to do was type that into the search bar and there tons of videos comparing them. I cant imagine asking this instead of watching videos when your already on youtube, is the concept of the internet a tough one for you to grasp???
@@yummybong148 Wow, you sound a lovely guy. Personally I can't imagine sitting around insulting strangers on the internet. What do you get out of that? Pretty sad. It's 'you're' not 'your' by the way - is the concept of basic English a tough one for you to grasp?
Really really wierd video......Replace everytime he says "Garmin R10" with any other sub 1000 launch monitor (except the part abt a screen) and this video can be used!
I'd bet my house that your a salesman! hahaha
I think you are just a hater :) I have had mine for a long time and it's awesome and accurate and does things in the same way that the track man systems do and that is and has been the gold standard, plus all of the other devices that give you comparable data are 4 to 20 times the cost, a good and bad comparison video would have been better
haha go watch any of the other like half dozen videos I've done on the R10. I think it's an excellent device, and a no brainer at the price. But as with all of these products, there are pros and cons, and nothing is perfect. But if you watch my dedicated review of it, you'll see I go over all of it in a pretty balanced and unbiased way. th-cam.com/video/URmcIDwnFB8/w-d-xo.html
Team Rapsodo MLM all day
Rapsodo would have been my choice all day long, but no android app. Still. After years of people asking for it. R10 it is for me.
@@TempleOfFive Does the R10 have a simulator option? Curious to know if any of the $500-ish dollar options have that capability. I know the $3k sims have them... but I'm not sure I'm ready to commit to those just yet
Yeah pretty surprised Rapsodo doesnt have an Android app to be honest...
Yeah the R10 is the only simulator in this price range to have full simulator features. It comes with a mobile e6 subscription that includes 6 courses you can play in full.
@@breakingeighty same here. I can understand right away, they want to get the product on the market to recoup development costs, but it's been 3 years since it came out and they've been promising it that entire time. I got sick of waiting, even though I had to wait 7 months to get the R10, I finally did. Moving though this week so haven't had a chance to use it yet.
Lol such pathetic reasons 😂
You just want clicks with this title
Hi Sean, Purchased the R10 from PlayBetterdotcom and recieved it in 2 days. Love the unit. Great Review!
