Rapsodo MLM

I like mine.. I've yet to use it indoors with a net though ... I need to buy one for my garage b/c the weather we've been having I haven't been able to swing a club in almost a week..

Are the RPT balls required? OR, does that give you more data like spin rate ?

Just for spin.

The current bundles give you two dozen balls, which is great. Mine only came with three, and they cost $70 per dozen.

I’ve had one for over a year. Zero issues with it, easy to use.

I haven’t tried it indoors, but it works great on the range. You can adjust between 10 metrics, it will display 4, but records all 10.

Carry
Total Distance
Side carry
Club speed
Ball speed
Smash factor
Launch direction
Launch angle
Apex
Shot type

I usually go Carry, Smash factor, carry and launch angle. Overall distance I spot check.

You can also carry it with you on the course, since it takes about 10 seconds to set up if you aren’t being pushed you can see how shots actually match up when it counts.

Amazon had them for around 200 on Cyber Monday.

Was asking about the MLM not the pro. I have heard the Pro is a great device .

do you think the Pro is worth the extra cost? I’m trying to decide between the base mlm and the Pro.

If you are just interested in basic data points on the range then I would say the mlm is plenty, but if you have any inclination to set up a sim or hit into a net then absolutely go mlm2pro instead.

I’ve logged over 15k shots on my mlm2pro in a little over a year. If hitting into a inclosure you definitely want the pro for the spin data with the RPT balls for accurate ball flight. Without a spin reading any of the low end launch monitors are going to show you hitting a pretty straight ball just push or pulled into a net because it only has 10-12’ for the camera to track the flight before impact. When in actuality with an accurate spin reading you may be draw or fading it back around. You also get AOA and club path with the 2pro over the original.

I find the Rapsodo to be the most accurate in comparison to trackman numbers of any of the offerings beneath the GC3.

Now if you are strictly looking for an indoor or net setup for sim golf and do not need the behind the ball setup for Right/left handed golfers I’d recommend the Square LM. Less space needed with a beside ball LM, no yearly membership, and has putting.
