Review on Improve Your Golf Game With PlayBetter Swing Caddie SC300I Launch Monitor - Choose From Accessories Bundles For Accurate Distance, Smash Factor And Ball Speed Readings by Alvin Bonifacio

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great Value for Indoor or Outdoor use.

My primary use is for my indoor net, I used my pops level to make sure the SC300 is level with the ball just as the instructions suggest, also used a laser measure to make sure it's exactly 5 ft away from the ball for consistency.Device: Build quality feels really good, compact design helps store easily in the golf bag. Very easy to read all the info from 5ft away, audible notification also helps.Battery: Man does this thing lasts for a while - I used it to hit 200 balls the first day and of the three bars it was still full, Day 2, hit another 200 balls and went from 3 bars to 2bars - Can easily be used for 4-5 sessions of 200-250 balls.Accuracy: Initially used indoors, was skeptical of the yards so went to the backyard and did a full test on distance with a rangefinder - NOTE: set your loft and lie for every club - So my PW is my 100-105 club kept getting 96-98 on SC300i both indoors and outdoors which made me skeptical, I would measure with laser and even did a full walkout with yards tape, then I updated the club's data via the app, updated the loft and lie and now getting accurate yards to within a few feet. Ran some tests with various club brands some with stronger lofts/lies vs others where both yardage, launch angle, and spin rates will vary and it was really accurate.Remote: This has to be the handiest feature, quickly change clubs without touching the device from a distance. Also, the ability to change the modes from Practice to Target mode. In target mode, you can also change the target yards directly with the remote.App: The app for sure requires some improvements, nothing that is a deal-breaker however. Data gets stored within the device till you sync with phone or tablet. All the data points are available and can be exported to excel.Wishlist of app1. Ability to remove clubs that are not in the bag2. Desktop version to easily export the data or view within the online portal3. Ability to update a session's data - for example, I hit 7i but forgot to change club on the device so the data recorded as W1 or Driver, so I ended up just deleting that session's data vs having skewed data.4. Flight Path or Side spin would help understand strike a bit better (can't have it all at this price point but would be sweet)Overall very happy and I can see it being used long-term. If you are an avid golfer and stats and numbers play a big part in your game or just want to figure out your carry and total yards per club, this device will do that accurately.
