Really like this review/demo. So many other ones I saw were with pros hitting all these straight shots in the fairway. This demo gave me lot better examples of when you don't end up in the fairway - which is more like my real game. My Garmin R10 just arrived two days ago but it has been raining here since so have not had the chance to try it out yet. I'll be outside using a net, but it should be very similar I suspect. Thanks for the video.

First off, really well done video. Very in depth and excellent demo. My thoughts on the unit are this: you’ve basically got Mevo, SCaddie and Rapsodo MLM all at $500. The Garmin R10 seems to do all the things those do just as well, but ALSO has ball flight and simulation capability for $100 more. This is what differentiates it. Now, how accurate the ball flight is, imo determines whether this product is nothing more than a $100 more expensive Mevo or a ridiculous deal. Distance seems really accurate from all videos I’ve seen. Ball flight… I can’t tell. Firmware might need some more time in the oven but if Garmin can get shot shape right 9 out of 10 times, this would be product of the year. Not that it matters for the majority of us - its already out of stock till 2022 and is being scalped as bad as PS5s last year. Honestly, I feel like by the time I can walk into a store and buy this, a competitor like Rapsodo will have its own equivalent. This is really a missed opportunity on Garmin’s part. By allowing a shortage this bad they’re buying their competitors a lot of time and probably missing out on a ton of sales they could have locked in on the R10 before any equivalent is announced.
@GarageGolf 2 жыл бұрын
Crazy on the people buying them up and selling them on EBAY. I wish that kind of stuff could get cracked down on hard. I've been trying to get a PS5 for over a year!! LOL. I look forward to testing out ball flight more on this and keeping everyone posted. I agree there is a lot of good competition in this price range but Garmin has something here if they can keep the shelves stocked!!

I’m a Garmin fan and have the S62 GPS watch, so I really want the R10 to work for my setup. I hit into a net in the backyard, so I’ll look forward to your outdoor net review. My primary concern is hitting over the net, as it’s only 7’ high. I tend to hit much closer to the net than the recommended 8-10’, especially 8 iron and shorter, and from what I’ve researched, most people say the farther back, the better. Your 9’ setup worked fine, so I still may give it a try. I bought a Skytrak on a trial basis, but returned it after 30 days. I really liked it, but Skytrak doesn’t include any simulator access, other than a 30 day trial to 1 E6 course. Ultimately, if you want simulation, you have to pay a Skytrak subscription plus a simulator subscription - a minimum of roughly $500 annually. If it included a few free courses, like the R10, I probably would have kept it. Even though the Garmin Golf courses look cartoonish, I like being able to play local courses.

I bought the Mevo Plus around 4th of July and have used it almost every day. It has improved my score by about 3-5 strokes per round, mainly because I know my iron distances so much more accurately now. I hit into a net with about 8-9 feet of ball flight with the Mevo+ set 7 feet from the ball and I really, really get accurate distance. I do not use the putting feature although I do chip when playing my sim rounds. I should really love my purchase, except about a month after purchasing the Mevo+, the R10 came out. Given that I don't putt, did I overspend on the Mevo? It seems the R10 can do most of what the Mevo can do plus give you club path and attack angle. Any input would be appreciated.
@GarageGolf 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Chris, thanks for watching. While I don't personally own the Mevo Plus due to the restrictions for distances and my lack of space in my sim I have tested it and know it to be a quality product. Many of the features that are calculated and accurately measured on the Mevo+ are actually just estimated on the R10 so I still feel that the Mevo+ is the superior product, thus the difference of 1400.00 in price basically. That being said I have been nothing but impressed with the Garmin R10 and it's features. I don't feel you overpaide for your device at all but I also feel you probably would be very impressed with the R10 if you had the opportunity to test it out. I loved how I did not really have one misread in my testing and look forward to continue testing it out as we go. Thanks again!

I had it and returned mine. It was fun, but while there was a lot of stats, I had to scroll through multiple screens after each shot to see the numbers I was looking for for example swing and ball speed. I would prefer that they put more information on the main screen or allows you to pick what information you want to see so you don't have to scroll after each shot. I think a landscape view especially if I wanted to use an Android tablet but also be of great value. So hopefully in the future they will address a few of these issues and I will re-examine whether I should get it or not.

Great set up man. Quick question. I just opened mine up today. My distances are like 20 yards off. What would you say is the cause? I tried adjusting several times and it only got worse from the 20 yards. 8’ from net, 6-8’ from behind was the Garmin. Alignment as close to 100% as possible. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
@GarageGolf 2 жыл бұрын
Would you say 20 yards off from what you see outside or 20 yards off from another launch monitor. Have you repeatedly swung indoors before? Sometimes there is an adjustment there that needs to be made before you are swinging the same inside as you would outdoors. It's called Indoor Swing Syndrome and honestly everybody experiences this at first for a month or two until you get fully acclimated. Let me know when you have a moment.

All done in post production. All I see when I am filming is the green screen behind me. It is just literally a green rectangle projected onto a normal golf sim screen.

@GarageGolf Жыл бұрын
Since I could not get my phone footage to show up on my screen behind me, what I did was hit into basically a green screen. I replicated an image of a green screen and had it behind me on my projector screen. I then recorded the footage as I was playing the game on the Garmin R10 on my phone and then in post production I overlayed the image onto the screen behind me. Not easy to do at all but lots of tutorials out there for that. If you look at some other footage on my channels you will see I normally have just the actual projected image behind me. Not as clear but still pretty clear overall I would say.

Great review thanks. I think you said you were looking at a green screen then viewing on your ipad? Presume you can just project from ipad to impact screen via projector so you can see the shot and course? Why would you you a green screen rather than the course? Sorry if it's a stupid question. I've just got an R10 and am interested in creating a basic golf sim using R10 & E6 connect. Thanks again, you've got a new follower.

Thanks Simon. I addressed it in the beginning of the video but I was trying to screen mirror it to my pc screen and then my projector but for some reason I was getting a ridicilous delay of more than 30 seconds which obviously wouldn't work for video purposes. Since I had used Green Screen in the past and know that the image comes out super clear I decided to go that route instead. If you have a good program for screen mirroring you would be just fine I am sure.

Great in depth video. Watched another video comparing EYE XO with R10. As pointed out earlier, spin is determined by a mathematical formula and not measured? Would having a metal dot like Mevo+ for indoor use improve accuracy in general and more specifically spin data. To have have club-head data at this price point is amazing. I’m seeing people just getting recently. Any advice on how to grab one? eBay would be $900. Thanks for the great review!!!!

@@GarageGolf That would be great. Today I was able to test the Rapsodo MLM from a friend. In my home setup with the "Almost Balls" I had good results up to the gap wedge. the pitching wedge with the rapsodo was already 15m less. I had 8 iron 20m less and with 6 iron it was 25m less than my normal strokes on the round. With the woods the difference became even clearer. But I think that the R10 has the big advantage that it also has the simulator in addition to a launch monitor. I'm really curious to see how the Almost golf balls work with the R10. Almost balls have the same speed, spin and take-off angle as a normal golf ball. As such, it could really work well with the R10. It is important to believe that it is the white almost balls. In addition, they are glass break-proof. I'm looking forward to your answer.

The R10 is like your other video that I watch PhiGolf vs Skytrak the distance is way off, R10 being Phigolf. I know that it does not compare to a 2K launch monitor but all I want is the same result from what I am getting at the driving range.

I unfortunately don't have a net yet but working on it. Wonder if there would be a difference if you covered the net on the back to make it more like a screen such as adding a sheet or blanket behind it?? These are all things I hope to test personally as well.

how did you connect R10 to projector?
@GarageGolf 2 жыл бұрын
For this video I used a green screen and overlayed the image in post on Adobe Premiere. If you wanted to connect your R10 to a projector you would do so with either a phone or Ipad and use either a lightning to HDMI connector or a USBC to HDMI Connector or something equivalent depending on your connection type for your device.
@Jimmythepin 2 жыл бұрын
I download the scorecard for every course I play. The handicaps for each hole are right there. The spin factor of the R10 is done with math analytics and is NOT accurate, so distances are largely shorter. Hopefully Garmin will fix this in a future firmware/software upgrade.

Can I ask, did you upgrade the firmware before this test. Its now on 3.60 The reason I ask, is when you did the last chip shot on the first E6 course, it was calculating (because it had detected your club waggle before hitting it). That could be why it didn't work too well. They say that has been fixed on 3.60 firmware. Thanks

I can't see those working at all (but I haven't tried) I have this unit. It very accurately measures the actual ball speed. If you hit it slightly fat (particularly on driving bay mats, where you can feel the mat stopping the club) your ball speed comes right down. You look up, and that's exactly what happened to your ball flight, and your 150yrd 7 iron has only gone 130yrds Those foam balls will never achieve anything like the ball speed of an actual golf ball. So it may measure it, but the stats will be so way off as to make them useless.

No, it's not even close to the skytrak or mevo plus. Skytrak and mevo plus are on another level. I love the features but if you want the accuracy it doesn't read the spin as well. It cant.....you can't use a battery pack. When the battery dies you have to charge it and can't play. So basically ifs going to give you shots that are much straighter than they should be.
