    Hey David,
    I finally logged in a few hours with my MLM2 and I am completely blown away! I brought it out in the yard to hit some wedges so I could compare the ball flights and they were spot on! And I wasn't using the RPT balls, still perfect shot shape. I will say though after using it inside, the spin numbers without using the RPT were off, but it was still giving me a very accurate shot shape and numbers ( Just not spin rate) .
    Thanks again!

    • @davidmaxfieldgolf
      @davidmaxfieldgolf  Рік тому +1

      Agree, I should have been more clear in that section. When you use the premium ball setting in the Rapsodo app it’s not that far off but in awesome golf it was this time

  • @10KenHall
    @10KenHall Рік тому +6

    Great comparison video, I am sticking with the R10 and awesome golf, the subscription to use the mlm2 is a a marketing ploy, free for a year is a trap, better to go with the Sky Track, because with the mlm2 you will need at least Awesome Golf so that’s 2 subscriptions and probably need a third for playing courses, that’s close to 600 bucks a year plus the rpt balls .
    So the best budget option is the R10 plus the subscription to awesome golf best top feature choice would be the Sky Track. As golf sims become more widely used costs of these units should come down, till then I will most likely end up with just the R10 and GSPro for my indoor sim, also I think Garmin will release another unit to compete with the Sky Track but more affordable. Garmin has a huge investment in golf with their watches and other devices so I doubt they will allow someone to beat them, so very positive times for golfers. There are golf sims popping up all over the place, it’s never been easier to get into golf and reach a level of proficiency that makes for a satisfying round.
    Cheers

      Agree Ken, if costa are an issue then the Garmin R10 is the most affordable option. The MLM2PRO does have advantages with the duel camera and spin axis on the ball but like you’ve mentioned there’s an extra cost. Skytrak is the best option for indoor sims for sure but it’s a higher cost again

    So Dave I need some clarification (BTW finally got my MLM2PRO) on the RPT balls (Very funny pun in the video :) ) - when setting the MLM2PRO app to use the RPT ball will that then show the Spin when using the integrated packages such as Awesome Golf or do you not get any spin - I am asking as I want to get a subscription going with the next few days but wanted to be sure that if I used the RPT balls that I would get spin when using Awesome Golf, E6 etc. - TY - Great vid cant wait to see the upcoming vids!!! Cheers Mate!

      Yes 100% you can change from rpt ball to premium ball in the awesome golf app also and it does give you the italics where it shows an estimated spin for the non rpt balls. Not sure why it didn’t work here but I tried after and it was there as an option

      @@jaradcohen Hello Mate! My main issues with the MLM2 are missed shots and buggy performance. I do most of my practice indoor into a net. The MLM2 misses a LOT more shots than Skytrak. From what I have heard, the MLM2 works much better at the range, I have not tried that yet. My Skytrak misses a shot maybe once every 50 shots or so. I have also had some crashes and software issues with the MLM2, but I think they will get it fixed. Overall I think it is a good product and very portable! I think it will be great to take to the range, but overall, for the type of practice I do mostly, you can't beat the Skytrak for the price(pretty cheap used now). I will keep the MLM2, I think it will get better with updates, as far as accuracy goes they are both pretty spot on and the camera function in the MLM2 is pretty cool too.

    Ok David - say I made the call and purchased the Garmin R10 and subscribed to Awesome golf and have a pack of RCT balls. Through my research I have a set of target stats I want to measure my practice sessions against- how do I do this. If it’s not a present feature in Awesome golf can you make a suggestion to them to include it. In fact, it would be great to have my (static) targets against carry distance, swing speed, smash factor, spin rate, launch angle, attack angle, and apex. I can then look at the practice session and the variation to my targets… to me this is now the focus of the equipment

    So I want to take a LM out to a range since I don't have a setup at home. As you mentioned, the Skytrak is nice because I don't need to set it so far behind me. I'm looking on eBay and see many selling for ~ $1200. I know to use the best features of the MLM2PRO you most likely need to get the annual $200 subscription, which is included free the first year. My big question though is out-of-the-box, with no additional packages or subscriptions, what features do each provide and is it worth the extra $500ish to get a used previous model Skytrak for the range? I was considering the Mevo+ as well, but would prefer not spending upwards of $2k-3k for now.

    I'll keep saying it when you have to spend 200 yearly subscription to unlock the rapsodo for what you get is terrible. Topping that with potential e6 or awesome golf subscription makes this unit go to the bottom of the list. Same really. The new skytrack seems good with being able to place the ball down easier, but the cost is way more than the other 2 units. I play with lefties and to try and move the unit back and forth to play a round is not possible. So that would leave the R10 as the unit of choice for the money. Thanks for the video.
