GARMIN APPROACH R10 REVIEW:

Garmin is the clear winner here given the fact that if I bought a $2000 golf tracker tool my wife would flat out murder me.
The Garmin has landscape mode now. So it’s not just portrait mode now.
Your comment just sold me on the r10
I use the Garmin with awesome golf and GSpro (gs pro at home on the sim and awesome golf on the range or at home when I cbf getting the PC setup) …. BUT I really want the mevo+ $$$’s matter but still
Sound video. I bought a mevo+ and a powerbank is a must. Anker Power Bank 20000mAh is identical to the Mevo supplied rebadged powerbank.
Great job man that was exactly the kind of detailed but not too lengthy review and comparison I was hoping to find. For me personally I think the Garmin will give me everything I need. Thanks again!
Small world . I’m in the Hillsboro area as well. I’m a new subscriber. Cheers! Our photography studio did the grand opening photos for Pumpkin Ridge back in the day.
That's awesome! They used to have some killer shots on their website. After the ownership change, apparently, they lost the rights to use them so current ones arent nearly as good...
I have GSPro for my R10 and it's amazing. I just went to X Golf for the first time last night and I honestly enjoy playing on my r10 more. X Golf's game play software kinda sucks compared to GSPro, which is sad for a commercial simulator.
I went from a 34-38 handicap to 16-20 handicap between fall 2021-spring 2022 using my R10. (Before 2021 I only golfed maybe 1-2 times a year for outings)
If you buy the Garmin R10, also buy the Pro V1 RCT balls.
I bought the MEVO plus just a couple weeks ago. I did know that the Garmin is doing a lot of all those things similar, but I like the more professional style of the Mevo. The FS Skill App ist great and the limited E6 iOS package is great. Downside is the battery life and the WiFi connection that I need to switch around all the time. But the Garmin is still not available in Switzerland, nobody knows when it comes.
Same here! Just ordered the MEVO plus. Can’t get my hands on the Garmin and I enjoy the professionalism of the Mevo plus and the continuous upgrades from the company.
@@brendanschriber3242 I'd lean that way however I am a Garmin guy, I have the c10 sensors in my clubs and I use a Garmin Epix Pro 2 watch. So that makes me want Garmin, just not sure it has the features to do what I'd consider "club fitting"? It's 100000% just me tinkering, I'm no club pro, I'm not winning tournaments or anything, just a tech geek who likes golf too :D If Garmin has what it takes then it's a no brainier since I have their stuff already. But something inside me says the Mevo+ is just flat out better... so not sure being in the ecosystem already should trump that or not?
Nice Video, really good comparison. Just two additions: Fusion Tracking comes with mevo plus, Pro Package is not needed. And there is a nice feature with mevo plus: Video Recording combined with your swing data including the use of up to four cameras simultanously. That makes it really easy to analyse the swing.
Oh you're right! That's awesome! I haven't downloaded that update yet. Will need to do so and check it out. Thanks for the heads up!
I was minutes away from pulling the trigger on a FlightScope. Then I found this video. Really glad I did because it answered some key questions for me. Based on what I learned, I'll continue to wait for the R10 I have on order. Well done & nicely produced. Probably could've been edited down to 12-15 minutes, but still worth the time to watch. Keep up the good work.
They may have similar features but accuracy is more important. Mevo+ all the way, the Garmin is a toy
@@williamgreen8375 really depends on what you want it for. While the Mevo+ is more accurate, there's a significant difference in the price. The difference in money could get you a new set of clubs or put towards a proper projection / impact screen setup. Some people don't need perfection and just need something to give them some important information.
@@williamgreen8375 and you're still shooting 90's so really I'm not sure where that leaves us.
Have both. Would buy the Mevo+ with Pro Package EVERY single time.
Good to know! Definitely the pick overall...just one small caveat of being 5 times the price ha
Any reason in particular?
At that price.... why not put money into an even better monitor??
Just the information I need to make a decision. I will be comfortable with the decision to spend a few bucks more for the Garmin R10, rather than the cheaper alternatives.
I just put a carbiner on the r10 case (it has the little fabric loop) and clipped it to my bag
Love the content, keep it up! Buying the R10 today
Nice! Hopefully you can find one, or that the wait isnt too bad.
On my golf bag I have a "valuables" zipper compartment that is padded and lined with some kind of ultra plush material. The Garmin fits perfectly and there's no need to even use the bulky case. Garmin is the ultimate in portability also considering the battery life.
Totally agree. Super portable.
Great Review !! Thanks for digging into the details for both devices.
1) Will both show the ball flight path? Specifically showing my slice. I feel I can correct if I get real time data back.
2) Also can either of these be displayed on a TV screen I.E. 42" 4k screen??
Again Super job!!!
This video just saved me $1,400. Thanks!
Having had the Mevo+ (switched to GC3 recently as we have longer winters than not) I can say that the battery life is less of an issue than someone might imagine.
If you're using it at home, you can leave it plugged in or get an inexpensive power pack to charge it from. However, the intended application is pretty clearly meant to be taking it to the range for a session or pre-round practice and 90m is plenty of time for that.
why the gc3 update
@@clints8888 because GC3 is objectively better indoors and we only get 4 months of golf season here, so the sim sees far more use inside than it does on a range.
don't know, which one better but R10 bought since May 2022, it could not work at least one time. So my idea Flightscope is better.
If you can only pick 1, which one would you purchase for indoor use?
My buddy has a mevo+, i have an r10, I've used both quite a bit. We did some side by side comparison last night in the basement. They're pretty close indoors.. biggest differences was driver backspin (always reads higher on garmin) and some dispersion/carry discrepancies of 5-10 yards (driver) but you're hitting into a screen 10 ft away.. doubtful either of them is "right", there is so much estimation going on. Also, we were using 2 different apps. Bottom line, if you're just playing indoor golf with buddies on the weekend, not sure the mevo+ is worth the extra money. Outdoors on the range if you're really trying to dial things in, Mevo+ for sure is more accurate. R10 only can read up to like 100M of flight.
Once again another great video! This was exactly the review i was looking for. I think I’m going to pull the trigger on the Mevo+. I was so hesitant because I thought I should wait it out and get the Garmin due to the price. However, with the Mevo+ pro package, I really should be comparing it to a more professional launch monitor rather than the Garmin and based on that, its also really good value. I plan on using the device to capture my swing videos/data and sending it to my instructor for evaluation and training as I am often not based at the same location as he is. Honestly, still giving myself reasons (excuses) to buy the Mevo+ … haha. Thanks again!
Any have best recommendations for using the R10 in a simulation setup with a screen? Is this possible using just the E6 phone software?
Thanks Sean. That was extremely helpful. I've been looking at launch monitors for a while. That hit every question I had. I really appreciate it. Cheers.
Thanks Marc! Glad it helped.
Nice comparison, thank you so much!
so if i wanted to project and hit onto a screen with Garmin i would only be able to have it in portrait?
thanks for the video. great information. great value :)
Great review as always….not sure why you don’t have more subscribers!!!! Question. I had a Garmin R10 when it was first released and getting it lined up on the range was a PITA with just the red line on top. I found it took about 4 or 5 shots every time I moved it to a new target to get it right. during that time, others were having the same issues and many after market alignment aids were popping up to sit the device on and put alignment sticks in,etc…did they fix that issue? I’m currently using a Mevo and would like the extra data the R10 or Mevo+ provides, but would rather pay $600 and buy a golf club membership with the difference!
Hey Pete, I have the R10 since first release. I didnt have as many issues setting it up, but agree it was still a pain with no aftermarket stand. I dont use mine at the range though, only at home into a net in my garage. I bought a little levelling stand which came with a laser and that has made it so easy to set up correctly - literally 30 seconds. It cost around $30 USD. The laser gives you direction and as it sits in a cutout in the stand, it makes it much easier to move around/aim the stand/unit. BUT you wouldnt be able to really see the laser out on the range in direct sunlight so dont think thats a solution for you!
@@tezzlacoilz Yes! I wound up buying a stand too and it has an opening for alignment sticks to fit…But, after using it a bunch, I am now using a Mevo+. The ability to review the shot data on the R10 is absolutely terrible…there’s no way to cull through the data, collate it, compare it, or save it/send it outside of Garmin to do anything with it…I do a lot of club/shaft testing and it’s impossible to compare data between two different clubs…
@@petegalindez9961 yeah alot of people complaining about that exactly and agreed, can't believe the shot data on the Garmin app is 1. So poorly thought out, and 2. Can't be exported. I use e6 as it's much more friendly for reviewing a range session but still not perfect. Do you use the mevo+ indoors? Tho to be fair to the r10, the mevo+ is considerably more expensive
I’ve seen other reviews that say the Garmin doesn’t accurately track distance and direction with long woods. Is that true
I have a general question for both devices. Do they need active internet to operate? I am in rural area where cell service is spotty in my shop where I am going to build my indoor range. If I download the app on an Ipad or my Iphone and go to my shop will the units work for both range and course play? Good video.
With the Garmin you do not need active internet. As long as the apps are downloaded you're good to go. Can't speak for the Mevo but would assume it's the same.
Garmin R10 out of stock everywhere...
nice video keep em coming
Thank you! Appreciate the feedback - still early days with it. Plenty more to come.
What about other golf Sim software like gspro?
Q: any thoughts on the Mevo (mini)? Does that work as well?
Yes it works great, and in many cases may be more accurate due to the fact that it directly measures certain metrics vs. using an algorithm, which is what the R10 does for many of it's stats. That said, it doesn't have any lateral data, which is the big knock on it. So you won't be able to see if you have a giant slice or hook, for instance.
Thanks mate, appreciate your thoughts. The fact that you can use the R10 as an indoor launch monitor is a big plus, as well (big knock is that waiting time is 8-10 weeks here in the NL).
Garmin does allow landscape on my phone/TV
Great to know. Is that in the Garmin Golf App or in something external like e6 or Awesome Golf?
@@breakingeighty both, it wasn’t at first but a few weeks ago it started going into landscape when you rotate the phone. I use it with an HDMI adapter/iPhone 8 and if you rotate the phone it does on the Tv as well.
Does the FlightScope have shot tracer for the video it can record from behind the line?
It does since the last update (late 2022).
Hey, the only thing I would be curious about the comparison is the data parameters, are they measured or calculated? I thought I read a bunch of the parameters on Garmin aren't actually read, but calculated based on others (I know mevo plus does it as well in some cases). For things like the club information or spin that could really effect accuracy.
Many of them are calculated on the R10, which is why it's so much less than the Mevo+. That said, I've found the calculations to seem pretty accurate as best I can tell.
Please, on all your reviews, would you state whether the device needs a ball to be hit or dry swings without a ball?
Hahah …you’re funny 😂
@@IverKnackerov Many do not do dry swings period optical shot does because it is uses the club only period
Period flights, go flightscope. Flightscope mevo Has a swing only.
mode But it doesn't respond the same as if there is a ball Being hit in front of it . not sure what they Are you using to read the scene
Good review. However I disagree with your ease of use, why you stated you can take the attend to the driving range however there are 10 does not track range balls, flight scope does.
It does track range balls, it only doesn't do limited flight and foam balls
I have used the R10 many times on the range with range balls with no problems
Completely incorrect comment! 🤦🏻♂️
Doesn't matter. The garmin cannot be found anywhere.
tHE GARMIN R10 IS SIMPLY JUNK AND GARMIN WILL NOT HELP YOU OUT. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND BUY SOMETHING THAT WORKS!
More info here please? I’m looking to buy r10, what issues did you have??
@@Hamlocks disregard that. I’ve had the r10 for a year and it pretty nice. Garmin is constantly adding enhancements and features.
I think this comment may come from the alignment issues early on, and how they manifested in lower ball speed measurements and shorter distances calculated with R10. It’s true, you need to make sure alignment is spot on for accurate distances but I’m amazed how much work Garmin is doing on a continual basis with this thing. One huge recent add is measured ball spin with Titleist RCT balls - afaik only Trackman could do that previously and it steps up accuracy significantly. Its popularity is what I believe will make it continue to pull away further from the competition at the same pricepoint
