And with winter… because I think a 10-15 in a full-time-playing location could get use out of it.

How much do you think temperature affects the readings? I feel that when it's 40 and below, the readings seem low for distance and spin, but good for launch. The balls are cold. It may be that I am just more bundled up too.

Makes me wonder how much a Mevo would fetch on EBay.

I’m very interested. It’ll definitely do better than the ancient aboutgolf we have in the shop.

I don't get who is buying them for $700. Guess it involves WC Fields.

My guess is nobody. I should have pasted this link instead:

I kind of feel that way, too. Trying to talk myself out of this purchase for now. Maybe next year.

This is the most interesting post yet. Is the guy swinging a WLD champ? If so, 6k+ spin rate with a driver is odd. 191 ball speed and only 260 yards carry, is also odd, but not that odd if the spin rate really is that high. Is it the device that is inaccurate, or just a horrible strike?

It sounded pretty windy in Orlando there. Guessing it’s chilly too by the clothing.

There were/are experiencing temps in the 30s .   The water parks were closed.   I too noticed the high spin rate, but it sounded like the wind was blowing pretty good.

He said "yeah, that was about right." So, a mis-hit. Also maybe not even his driver? He reps FS, so I don't think he's going to post a bad number on purpose.

More data. What, your guess is as good as mine. Maybe the actual path and face numbers?

Measure swing speed without a ball?

Of course, since I only have a non-plus Mevo, doesn't help me.

    • The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
