Unfortunately I was originally planning to do 3 sets of 10 shots each and find the averages from all of them but Rapsodo isnt ready to be connected longer then 3 minutes so its just not feasible at this time, the biggest data set I could get for now is 6 swings each. Easily able to tell you that the Potamus stickers are durable and they do track really well its just a question of if its actually worth it to you! Once you factor in the cost of the stickers, shipping, golf balls, and time to apply the stickers it might be more worth it for you to just buy the Callaway RPT Balls.

Ya, marking balls with markers does not work. I originally ordered a 3d printed plastic template off of eBay that you can take any ball, place the template around it, and color in the circles to give you the same pattern as the RPT balls. This was great in theory, but after just one use I had marker smudges all over the balls themselves and on my club faces. I returned. Did some more research. Found these Potamus Stickers, made up 12 balls; 6 Callaway Chromesoft's, 3 Titleist Pro V1's, and 3 Topflites that I had. The onlly thing left is to start using them and see how long they last. I assume that because the stickers are raised, raised enough that I can feel them with my finger, they will not last as long as I hope...maybe they will prove me wrong.
I’ve tried both marker and potamus stickers, and I’m not a big fan. The marker doesn’t work well, and the potamus stickers don’t last long. Plus, I don’t think they give as accurate information. I recently removed all of my potamus sticker balls from rotation because of their inconsistencies. For me, it’s way more worth it to pay for the premium balls. They last a long time, and I have plenty of time to use them. I bought a 12-pack 1.5 years ago and still haven’t burned through all of them, even though I don’t play much. In conclusion, I would order the rapsodo-branded balls and stop trying the cheap alternatives. It’s just not worth the time and effort if you’re really short on money. Spend the time you would be coloring in balls working, and you’ll easily be able to pay for them. Sorry if that’s blunt, but that’s just my opinion.
Yes I do and they haven’t I actually just replied to someone else about this I don’t think they are worth it best bet is to order the rapsodo branded balls from Callaway don’t use a marker either waste of time.
Why didn't you put the stickers on a Chrome Soft ball to compare? The RPT ball is based on the this ball and therfore you could actually see if there is a differnce. Between ball types and manufacturers you already know that there are going to be differences.
Good idea boss tbh with you I dont play chromesoft i play pro v1's so I would need to go buy a sleeve for it but not a bad idea I might do that for a video this week, the editing of videos like that is not fun but surely its something some people are interested in.
Sorry, but these stickers are Amateursville! I just don't get why anyone would waste their time on applying these. Yes, I get the fact that you can choose to use the ball you use on the course but let's be honest, we are all amateur players and it's not going to make any noticeable difference what ball you are using on a launch monitor so long as it is a quality ball, which the RPT ball is. Just buy the damn things and get on with it.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Even someone that is regularly breaking 100 is going to notice a difference between different balls. Carry distance and total spin numbers can be way off.
I personally don't feel like paying 70 dollars for 12 balls when I can pay 25 for 20 stickers and get 20 balls instead of 12 it's not ab. Playing better its about time
It's not just about the differences that we amateurs see using different balls, or the ball that we feel we "prefer". It's about spending $13 and having the ability to use whatever 12 balls are in my bag at the moment, vs. spending $70 for a box of Rapsodo RPT balls. Not to mention, Rapsodo states that the RPT balls will last roughly 600 shots, which would mean you would have to drop $70 every year, depending on how much you practice. $13 seems like the better call to me.

Do you still have your MLM2Pro? If so, how have the stickers held up?
