    I just purchased a Square precisely because it makes an excellent, budget priced, launch monitor. I'm not interested in playing simulated rounds. The fact that I don't have to pay a yearly subscription for the launch monitor software sealed the deal for me. I'm sure I'll play a few of the included 55 rounds of sim golf. But I know I won't be playing 55 sim rounds per year. So I'm quite happy to have that as a pay-as-you-go option, especially since it might take me 2 or 3 years to use all of the initial 55.

    If they could put the club data as tiles on the same screen as the range/course that would be great. And/or the ability to have the club data info on a separate screen ie. the tv screen on the wall. That, and ability to use the open api to connect to GSPro. Sort those things out and I’d sell my SkyTrak and buy one. Am looking at ProTee VX at the moment, but this is amazing value to include that club data.
    How are they getting club data? Is it calc’d?

    • @GolfSwingSystems
      @GolfSwingSystems  3 месяца назад

      They use a reflective tape around the club shaft allowing for tracking in the same way other camera options work (GC3, Uneekor Eye Mini etc).

    Can I use a course to practise the same par 3 hole repeatedly (like on a range). e.g. will it give me a mulligan option so I can play it over and over?

    • @GolfSwingSystems

      You can but it is fiddly. You have to manually enable unlimited mulligans and then use a mulligan each time.

      @jaykallenbach1846 3 месяца назад

      $20 per 1000 credits is what I saw. So if I understood it - it's basically $20 for 55 rounds, whether you use them up in 3 months or 3 years.

    • @GolfSwingSystems
      @GolfSwingSystems  Месяц назад

      If you are an elite golfer the data may help but for the majority of players (5 handicap and above) the best thing you can do is get a reliable source of practice time that shows your ball flight accurately.

  • @jaykallenbach1846
    @jaykallenbach1846 3 месяца назад

    Is there an "auto-putt" option if you don't want to putt at all?
    Do credits charge double if you play two people on a round?
    Would be curious to see thoughts on their balls vs. your daily every day ball.

    • @alexobrien5565

    • @franktherookie6580
      @franktherookie6580 3 месяца назад +1

      And yes, you do get charged double if you play with 2 players... The credits are calculated as 1 credit per player per hole... so with 3 players playing 9 holes means 27 credits...

    what i learned from buying the rapsodo. is that. i would never again buy a product with software as a service again, aka subscription. the device itself needs to have the basics built in to it. like all the telemetri it can measure should be free when you bought the unit. Having to pay for. spin numbers and other stuff is simply not worth it. I realise that third party apps could cost a subscription
    also the software that comes with the unit should be avaible on more than an ipad, and with good graphics. not 1980s graphics . btw. get a mike, the sound is very hard to listen to.
