I watched that video a few days ago. I chuckled at him saying it is so much easier to set up than plopping a GC3 down and turning it on.

I love how he did his test hitting AlmostGolf balls, too. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Do I think this is remotely accurate? No. It's measuring ball speed. It's not getting spin or anything like that. Certainly not in dim conditions outside at night.

I feel like that video was an incredible waste of time. Because the guy kept saying carry and clearly the device is saying total distance. With carry distance also on there, but he's not calling that out. They when he's comparing it to the Trackman he continues to say "carry", when again the device says total. With his being so inexact in the use of the terms carry and total distances I literally have no idea how accurate or inaccurate that thing is. 

I will say the putting was kind of neat. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

I figured it was questionable as well. I too thought it was funny when he said how easy it was to set up compared to ‘more expensive devices.’ Yeah, it’s a real mess turning on my Mevo and setting it down. Maybe it’s ‘useful’ for someone who doesn’t want to spend a dime on a monitor and only wants to know distance, on a clear day.😗
