    I'd love to see a special video on putting practice for the winter months! I'm just starting to explore the Stack putting app now and have a Birdieball matt, but would love to level up my indoor putting practice

    I have a Mevo+ and am currently looking at swapping it out for the SkyTrak+. The main reason being is just I find the set up of the Mevo+ is very specific and if, like me, you don't have a permanent area to leave it all out it's just a massive hassle. I was put off the original SkyTrak as it wasn't meant to be much good outdoors but those issues seem to have been resolved on the + so will almost certainly be making the switch. BTW, I find putting on the Mevo+ incredibly hit or miss as well.

      Totally get those issues! My least favorite aspect of the Mevo Plus is the setup process, which depending on where you're setting it up, can be relatively painless to quite frustrating. And putting on ANY launch monitor (except maybe the Golfzon Wave) is not going to be great. I wouldnt expect it to be much better on the SkyTrak+, so set your expectations correctly. And as long as you're not hitting off grass outside, the SkyTrak+ should be great!

    I just got Skytrak+ and love it. So far it has been very good. No launch monitor is perfect but this one reads our shots 99% of the time. Only in rare cases does it miss. Usually lightly or some other issue.
    Price was $1000 less than the uneker mini. Yes no numbers on the device but having a screen is NOT a downside for me. We have a full sim space with projector.
    Having it side mounted really helps. We can sit more people behind to watch.
    Compared to the MLM2Pro P.O.S. that I had this thing is a dream. We have, since I purchased it, had 3 solid 18 hole simulation rounds with lots of practice before and as well. It's been great.
    Is it for everyone. Certainly not.

      @@Mike95lude It picks up most just fine. It does not like low runners of any kind. It is camera based so having good lighting at the ball contact area is fairly important.

    Great factors…having owned a SkyTrak and Mevo+…wish the Mevo+ didn’t need so much room; otherwise it would be a no brainer…the data parameters and layout is brilliant. As for the delay on the SkyTrak, I actually like it…It allows my brain a moment to determine what I think the ball flight will be based on where I think I hit the ball off the clubface…

      BLP subscription $700 vs $130 or $250 per year. Also it does not after club path to club face I believe they call it, but ST+ does. Does BLP offer E6 access? Or just GSPro? So, there a few reasons leaning against what appears to be a simple decision for you.

    The BIGGEST PROBLEM for most people to tackle IF the want to use it in sim is SPACE. SKYTRAK, BUSHNELL, EYE MINI, solve this problem and the latter 2 provide great putting & chipping as well. Now that the Eye Mini is selling for less than 4k and its subscription model is so much cheaper than the Bushnell it has to be considered as a contender as well - how about a review?

    • @unitedbacon
      @unitedbacon Рік тому +1

      Eye Mini haven’t tried yet. Their site says it’s $4500. Packages are $199, $399/year or $2k unlimited - can’t tell if that’s $2k/year or lifetime/onetime. I don’t consider that in the same price range as ST+ nor BLP, plus most everything else is less. The one video I watched shows it coming with its own mini suitcase but even just the unit looked larger & bulkier, so the least portable of these 3. Have you tried & compared it?

      --> Seems like $199 plus GSPro makes it much cheaper over the long haul than Bushnell
      My Understanding is the $199 - is basically a supported connector to E6 and/or GSPRO which is purchased separately.
      $399 is all of 199 and their Refine software and more cloud data
      $2K is one time with Refine+ and all of $199 but unsure if it includes updates.

      Uneekor Eye Mini owner here. The Eye Mini with ball and club data is $199 annually. $399 gets you a handful of golf courses that are vastly inferior to Gspro. The EM plus GS pro is hands-down the best portable combo in golf simulation (IMO). Annual subscription on the BLP is $699. Too much in my opinion.

    The Skytrak+ has no real downsides, except price. R10/Awesome Golf is a great budget alternative, but requires more physical space.
    Your complaint in your previous video about the lack of a case is absurd. Just buy a $30 case for your $3K launch monitor; golf isn’t fair. A more legitimate complaint would be the fact that they charge an extra $250 for the protective cage.

    A few more downsides I can think of which may outweigh one of your top 5’s:
    - Requires a screen - iPhone, iPad, computer, etc.
    - Setting up a simulator E6 is not straightforward. Extremely cumbersome and needs an “easy button”
    - On a Mat vs on grass - I’ve heard the red dot it displays it’s hard to see in the sun. Also that it has accuracy difficulty if blades of grass are involved. When I asked their support I was told debris & grass gets in the camera lense’s way - so Jury is out
