Foresight Sports GC2 Smart Camera System

Is anyone familiar with this device? I am wondering if there is a calibration or way to vary settings. The titleist and Cleveland fitters both used this device the day I tested the Titleist my ball speed was averaging about 159 and the carry 273. The Cleveland measurement showed a ball speed of 152 and a ave carry of 262.

I thought that maybe I was not swinging the same, possibly tired or sore from working out and the ball speed was down or the shaft was it. Then I remembered that I hit various different shafts at each place and not much changed.

Does anyone know if these machines vary per device?

Obviously the titleist is just a better driver.......

There is some variance between machines but the foresight is considered pretty accurate.  Ideally you would want to test clubs on the same machine. The predicated numbers (i.e. carry) I think can be tweaked by changing the temperature and altitude assumptions but things like ball speed and spin should be good. I find swing speed is a lot more consistant for me than ball speed which is what you would expect. I think most of the cleveland drivers are longer (~46") compared to the titleist (45"). Some people get more ball speed with the longer driver. Most don't.
