Garmin Approach R10 Portable Launch Monitor

After using the Garmin Approach 10 for a little over a month, I could not be happier with this product. I had a driving range mat and net for the back yard but would only use it to hit 15-20 balls. Since adding the R10 both my son and I hit balls 3-4 times a week. It has increased my swing speed and I am now hit the ball better than ever. We are currently using only the driving range feature and it is unbelievably accurate! I love the swing capture feature. It has caused me to make several adjustments to my swing, all with positive results. My son has been using it to get ready for his High School season and I can’t believe how far he is hitting the ball. The data really helps you to understand your swing. We can’t wait to set up the garage for the winter and play ... MoreAfter using the Garmin Approach 10 for a little over a month, I could not be happier with this product.

I’m continuing to be surprised how awesome this R10 is. I honestly can’t believe it’s been out for a couple years and I missed it.I just recently got into shopping for a launch monitor and first tried a smaller basic unit from another vendor with less than impressive results. Inaccurate reads or complete misreads.A month later I thought I’d give the Garmin a try and was completely blown away by the results. I purchased the recommended Titleist RCT golf balls for added accuracy and realism. The R10 is now reading much more accurate spin and side spin rates.The RCT balls introduced my ‘normal’ fade on most every shot which tells me the R10 unit is reading quite accurately. I have the R10 paired with E6 Connect and it is quite close to my real course results and ... MoreI’m continuing to be surprised how awesome this R10 is.

I have the R10 paired with E6 Connect and it is quite close to my real course results and quite fun to play. I’ve since put a large driving cage with impact screen in the garage and have a nice simulator set up.The only downside of this is trying to keep everyone else from playing the darn thing. I’m about ready to begin issuing tee times to family and neighbors.If you want a quality launch monitor and a good sim experience, you can’t go wrong with the Garmin R10

Do not waste your money. Maybe it works great outdoors but like most people, I bought this to use in my home. I was very excited to use the driving range features and the simulated courses. Unfortunately, this experience has been a nightmare. First, they don't tell you that you can't use wiffle or foam balls. So I bought the Titleiest RCT special balls and indoor net. Now it picks up the shots but everything is about 50% the correct distance. They said to move the net back and I did to the safest possible distance and used a 5 iron to make sure I didn't go over the net; distance was still 50% off (on the pure shots, it said my average carry with the 5 iron was 110; while it should be around 160. My 8 iron was only carrying 90 yards according to the device. ... MoreDo not waste your money. Maybe it works great outdoors but like most people, I bought this to use in my home.

When trying to check you driving range session stats, the interface is either poorly designed or buggy. You can't click on a shot and then see the stats for some reason. Please buy something else and don't end up like me.
