I'm getting one. 100 yards and in won't be a glaring weakness next year :banana:

Ah, this isn't a regular offering.  Then I need to decide sooner.  I'll look into the footprint -- hopefully I don't miss something super obvious like I did with the other thing.

No, I'll have them going again in January. No need to rush.

Right now they've still not yet set up their reseller stuff. They hope to have that in 30 days or so. They're doing a single bulk order for me now prior to that program being set up because I've pestered them a little. :-)

So you can still do it in mid January or so.

I am going to pass right now. I would be more interested in spring when I can actually use it. 

Yeah...I'm in the same boat.  It's silly, because it's not like it matters if I spend the $$$ now or later, but buying something that I know is going to sit on the shelf for months seems odd.

There is a 100% chance that I buy one next year, though.  I'm particularly interested in using it to tune my partial wedges.

You go to the range, though, John. And don't you, btw, @saevel25, during the winter?

Doesn't matter to me. I'm not making money here… and in fact I'm already putting several thousand dollars on a credit card here, so… fine by me if you want to wait. :-)

Those who don't want to wait, though, I'm calling and ordering tomorrow morning, probably before Tiger plays.

This is why I'm getting it now. Supposed to be a mild winter for NJ so I'm hoping for plenty of opportunities to use it.

Awesome, I'll look into it then too.  I'll see how hitting balls in the room ends up too.  Thanks.

I will have to wait until after Christmas. I'm spending too much money already plus I would like some thing with some winter games, like the more advanced flightscopes. This might be able to do this in the future by the looks of it.

Looks like I'm ordering on Monday. They're having their Christmas party today. :-P

Ha - shame. Glad I've placed the order so I don't have to waste time deliberating on something I was always going to buy eventually...!

I never actually worked out, by the way, does it have any sort of normalising function for range balls or is the discrepancy just not worth worrying about? I guess it would be difficult due to variable quality of range balls, but I have seen the function on ProTracer bays, so wondered how that works whilst keeping the data useful.

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

It doesn't, because it doesn't measure the whole flight. It measures the first bit and then determines the rest.

So… the end result is that there's not a ton bad about that. It also means it's not affected, really, by hitting balls into or downwind. It'll tell you what the ball would have done.

Thanks, really helpful to know and makes me even happier about the purchase!

Order placed for ten (all spoken for) today. If you have not yet worked out details on how to get the money to me, please do so soon.

Thank you.

If they arrive by the end of the week I will try my best to get them mailed out. I leave on Sunday for FL for some PGA stuff, though.

Sweet! I'm in no hurry, so if you don't get mine out, no worries. Weather supposed to get cold soon and I sprained my left middle finger on Thanksgiving so I can't really hold a club for a full swing for a little while longer anyways.

Awesome. Just as it's starting to get cold and transition to indoors. I'll try and post Mevo generated vids in the MySwing thread.
