At Bogey King Golf our goal is to inspire, educate, do product reviews and have fun! I have been an on & off golfer for a number of years, but during the pandemic really began to golf regularly - sometimes 3 times a week. I've taken lessons, partnered with my local club to gain advice and made some new friends along the way. Join me in my journey to become a better golfer. I don't hide that I am not a pro. I am just like you - someone who loves golf and wants to improve. If you're new to golf - welcome! If you've been around golf for a while I hope you can learn something new and have fun in the process. Be sure to subscribe to our channel, like our videos and share with your friends!

Thanks for the review. I see this all the damm time on FB LOL. BUT thanks to you I didn’t know you had to have a subscription to use the Bluetooth

@BogeyKingGolf Ай бұрын

You don’t need a subscription to use Bluetooth. That unlocks additional features for tracking your data and stats. It comes with a year for free so you can determine if you want to keep it or not.

@erichirons4081 20 күн бұрын

I bought one and love the sound and the display. On a negative note, Im struggling with the app staying active on my phone during the round. Do you have any suggestions?

@ericsmith2769 9 ай бұрын

I was excited for this but it’s just OK to me. I think it’s over-priced for the product, because there are cheaper alternatives. The speaker is fine, but like he says, not Bose quality. The distances are accurate, I had no issues. But..the app is not as good as others, IMO. I expect it to get better, but, to me, 18 Birdies and Grint are superior. Where this excels is the display showing distance to green being large and easy to read. Strong magnet. Scoring right on it is convenient, if you have a membership to do so (I was locked out first time because I wasn’t logged in on app). This is expensive golf tech that I just believe you can find comparable alternatives much cheaper, especially if you need to keep a membership. I like it, I just don’t love it for the price (at $200).

@BogeyKingGolf 8 ай бұрын

Thanks for sharing your feedback! There are a number of options out there that can be found for less or more. I think this hits a sweet spot for functionality and price. I think a lot more companies are jumping on the subscription service bandwagon because it ensures additional income and longer term revenue. As a consumer it can be a bummer, but if they offer worth while features I don’t mind making the investment. I know from my interactions that the team at Blue Tees is constantly working to improve their user experience and tailoring products for all golfers.

My concern with this is that there are unprotected speakers on each end. They may be passive radiators, i dont know but the point is id be worried stuffing this into a side pocket of my golf bag and possibly hurting one of these speakers.

@BogeyKingGolf 8 ай бұрын

I haven't had any issues with that so far. I usually play on a pretty dusty course and I've been able to clean it off easily and it doesn't seem to impact performance. I played a new course yesterday and took it with me in my bag with no issues. I think they are recessed enough that it would take a lot to really damage it.

@waynejones3592 6 ай бұрын

Just got mine as a gift. Been researching this for quite a while and did not understand there was any subscription fee involved beyond the 200.00. Also the immediate problem is the yardages seemed to drift back to some other hole and you have to refer to your cell phone and open the lock screen to get the cell phone to read each and every hole. That's ridiculous. This thing should change holes automatically

@BogeyKingGolf 6 ай бұрын

The subscription is optional after the first year. You will still get a lot of functionality if you don’t renew. As far as the automatic hole detection I would recommend sharing feedback with Blue Tees through the application. In my experience they are quick to respond and have made several updates that have improved my experience with a few things I noticed weren’t working or correct. I hope that helps!

@BogeyKingGolf 9 ай бұрын

I like that it combines both and is easy to see on the cart without needing to look at my phone. It comes down to personal preference. Features like the large screen, really strong magnetic strip and long battery life make for a compelling device. I have one other bt speaker that straps on to the golf cart roof strut, but the others I’ve used are hanging or sitting somewhere awkward. I say try it out and then make a decision. They have a great return policy.

I think it really depends on personal preference. If you don't want to wear a device or keep something in your pocket I think this is a great option.

Thanks for review video. This is a BIG “NO” for me. If it relies on my phone why would I pay $200 for it. In my opinion it’s worth about $50 to maybe $80 for the device and no subscription should be required. I can already do what it does on my phone with a free app and no subscription. So at the end of the day it’s a speaker with a display of data tracked by your phone. Not worth the expense in my opinion!

As I''ve continued to use it I've noticed the sound quality can change based on the source or eq settings. When I use iheartradio it sounds way better then when I use Spotify. I've changed some eq settings in Spotify and it sounds a little better now. Regarding bass I think it really comes to life at higher volumes which could distracting on the course if you are not trying to disturb others.

@reyesjaramillo1111 2 ай бұрын

So, after having this speaker for some time, here's an updated review . So I do like the speaker, and the distances are very accurate. Sound quality is ok but stronger on one side, so I'm not a big fan of that. The app to me is still something I don't use often as you have to save your score every time, and I forget. I fing myself still using my other app as it syncs to my watch and makes it easier for me to use. I always tell myself I'm going to use the Bluetees app but never truly do. There was an update for more players, but they too must have the speaker, and at times, it won't find the other user so I rarely use that feature. In all honesty, I'm pretty much using this just as a speaker and visual distances for whoever is riding with me. The magnetic stip is strong, and that's my favorite feature because it frees room in the cart. Also, there's no case for it . Overall I'd say it's ok
