Hey @MattMacKo - great question. The Rapsodo will still track the ball but the data will not be the same. Ball speed and club speed are still tracked but the majority of the data is calculated using an algorithm so it’ll be close but not the same data. For example, spin rate is tracked accurately using an RPT ball and is part of the carry yardage calculation. Without the RPT ball, you still get a calculation for carry yardage, but it won’t be as accurate as using an RPT ball.
when using it at the range or on course, will it track a regular golf ball the entire shot and provide all the same data as the rpt ball into a net?
