You did a GREAT review! I wish everyone would do reviews like you did. Right to the point, examples of how it works, your own thoughts and then end the video. I hate it when people literally show the packaging in the review. Who gives a $hit what the package looks like? Thanks and keep up the great work.
Really appreciate the feedback, thanks!! I've been thinking similar about reviews, tend to think it's better to just get straight to it. Thanks for following and commenting.
Got one last season to help practice wedge distance control. It is pretty accurate but throws in an odd reading every now and then but it’s accurate enough to be worth the money
I got one and love it so far. Seems accurate and provides meaningful feedback when tinkering around with your swing. Let’s you know if a change is improving outcomes or decreasing performance.
I had the first model of Swing Caddie and it was terrible. It showed you shot numbers even with no ball. After a while it just started reading out numbers at random times with no swing at all. Have you tried a swing with no ball? Maybe i had a lemon Hopefully this doesn't have that problem.
They're all great but this is more your entry level, budget option, so it's bang for buck and not all the features. You might like something like the Garmin or Flight Scope if you're after this type of features.
That's great, I'm excited for you! I've always found it to be a very solid unit and great value, I hope you enjoy it. It also goes really well with SuperSpeed Sticks if you ever look at doing some speed training. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thanks and welcome! In that video the net was called something like a hakket. Since then, I've changed to a Net Return Pro - you can probably catching a glimpse of it in my recent video about the PRGR vs Mevo+. I'm pleased I switched to the Net Return, it seems more sturdy, was easier to build and I've generally got more confidence with it. Hope that helps.
Hi I was just wondering if possible can you pass on the information or brand of your practice net as it looks like it is stand alone, also thanks for the info on the PRGR i,m after one to use with the stack system i just purchased ,thanks mal
No worries, sure you'll love it! The net is a Net Return (V3), theres a video on my channel about it if you want to know more. I got mine from a place called The Net Return Australia (but they're in the US etc as well). I have a Super Speed discount for PRGR devices if it helps. But all good products, hope you find what you're after! Good luck
I'm looking at getting this along with an optishot 2 so I can save money on going to the driving range, I seen it does carry distance and total distance, but can it give you both simultaneously, or is it one or the other?
Hey, you can toggle between total and carry for the shot you've hit, but you can't see them next to each other at the same time (you'd need to toggle). Totally up to you but if you do get one, you can save some extra money with this discount code for the Super Speed website: superspeedgolf.com/discount/JONPERKINS Discount Code: JONPERKINS Just if it helps! Cheers, Jon
Hi Gary, I think the one I had then was called a Rukket. I fairly recently changed to the Net Return. Got mine from the website called the Net Return Australia. It's great - I'm much more comfortable with it and it packs away very easily as well. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the review, idk what this bloke is on about, I know I don’t want to spend that kind of money without knowing what I’m getting lmao…this guy is into blind faith I guess.
Great review Jon. Smash Factor is simply ball speed divided by club speed. 1.5 is ideal for driver. We really like the PRGR, and we wanted to track our practice sessions / speed training in more detail. So we created a dashboard that summarizes all of your practice data. All you have to do is take pictures of the device and upload them to input the data. It makes the PRGR monitor all the more valuable in our opinion. Check out the first video on our channel if you are interested.

I think that sums it up well!

Yeah I agree with all of that - solid little unit.
Thanks for this review exactly what u was looking for. Like you touched on, hitting balls into a net isn't ideal without true feedback numbers
No the numbers makes it so much more valuable!

John’s wife sipping tea ☕️ watching John record his videos from the pantry window: “that net area in the corner would be a wonderful Sheshed.” 😆
Hope my Wife doesn't get that idea!
What about spin? Side spin, deviation? These are useful when hitting into a net and you can't see what direction the ball is going
They're all great but this is more your entry level, budget option, so it's bang for buck and not all the features. You might like something like the Garmin or Flight Scope if you're after this type of features.
Hi, can you use it just as a swing speed device, as in not hitting a ball? Thanks.
After watching this vid i ordered one. Looking forward to using it at the range to get a sense of how far I’m hitting the ball per club. Nice review 👍

Hi, new to the channel. Excellent review. Can I ask what golf net you are using?
Thanks and welcome! In that video the net was called something like a hakket.

Nice review - just what I needed
Glad it helped!!
Can you just swing driver infront of it without a ball to track club head speed?
Yep!

I have one, and it's very accurate.
Great little device!
My PRGR lasted three year, the calibration is off both yardage and swing speed.

What net are you using?

My monitor is not showing the yards on shots under 70 mph. Is this a common issue?
I'm not sure that I've seen that before (?), maybe other have?

Just another sales advert.
Sorry you feel that way, I really rate this little device. Great bang for buck.
