Selling a basically brand new GameGolf Live. Used only twice. Works fine, just decided it wasn't for me. Selling new for ~$100 currently, looking for $65. I have all of the original packaging.

For info on the system..... http://www.gamegolf.com/products/en-us/live?v=6354a30

I found myself too focused on how far I hit every shot, as opposed to just playing golf. Maybe I'd eventually get used to it and it would just integrate into my routine, but my lack of attention span and/or patience is highly likely to get in the way of that. ;-)

I used a laser finder and GolfShot GPS app previously, and that combo works really well for me. Being a tech guy, I liked the idea of the tagging, and hoped it would be a better system. But, for me anyway, it just wasn't. By the way, I definitely did not give it enough rounds to work everything out, but I never do......

Thanks for the feedback. Was it at least accurate? That’s my biggest hang up is wondering how accurate it is in terms of my position on the course. I want to go back and be able to see the round and not worry about it being accurate or not.

Yes, very. The only issue I ran into (and it wouldn't be an issue very often), was temporary greens. Being February in the northeast, I played on a course with 5 temp greens. I had to move the pin location to the temp green area or it got all confused. Not complicated, but something to remember. Other than that, it seemed dead on.

I figured I'd put it it in a box, slap a label on it, and off it goes. :-D

I'll cover whatever the cheapest method of shipping is, either USPS Priority or UPS. We should take this to PM.

Their are many great features using GG, with either the basic or the New Live.

You can create a user profile for free on the website and view other members data/rounds who are equal handicap to you for detailed info.
Once you make a purchase and start utilizing GG you will discover many aspects of your game which you can focus on for improvement.
I own both units, although my wife swiped my live unit and she was using it for a while.
I really do not concern myself with the live features while I play, I just tag and hit my shots.
After the round, you will need to view the round and make any changes or adjustments.
It's easy to edit the round, the detail which is most important will be adding penalties or shot locations and pin positions for better accuracy.
I have taken the data and use it for a Game Improvement Spreadsheet which give me details of my game to observe over any selected time period.

View the GG threads for other thoughts and comments and you will see the many advantages of using the device.

If I didn't already own them, I would jump all over this sale, :whistle:

If you were obsessed with distances, you could have tried using it without pairing it to the phone. That's what I do.

Locked because it was sold. Congrats, @HJJ003. You can add your GG account to your profile.

      Just listened to episode 19 on grip strength. Very interesting stuff. I missed what the long drive competitors grip strength is, but presumably very high.  I suspect that part of the correlation between grip strength and speed is that general body strength is likely correlated well with club head speed and it's difficult to do a full body workout without going to town on your grip. Deadlifts are frequently recommended as a good exercise to do for golf and for a lot of people grip strength is the limiting factor on what they can deadlift. Doing deadlifts will improve your grip strength, so quite plausibly grip strength and club head speed are both caused by making yourself stronger.  Do you have any charts about how grip pressure changes through the swing? I'd be interested to see that.  Lastly, last week I played a tournament round and as I played was thinking about my grip strength and I noticed I was gripping it pretty hard. Then I realized after the round (I did not play very well at all) that I had been very tense throughout my body and I'm now wondering if that tension is the cause of my poor play. I have five tournament rounds and three casual rounds in the last three months. tournament rounds are 84, 81, 80, 81, and 81. Casual rounds are 71, 70, and 72. I wonder if that's caused by tension making it past my wrists. That's a long way of saying the last little bit Erik added rang true with me.  Great episode!

      Eric, Man, I'm sorry. This video is just too damned boring. I don't know what's going on like half the time. I've tried to watch it a couple of times but I get like 5 to 10 minute in and realize I'm thinking about what I'm going to make for dinner or if I should do laundry on Saturday or if I should do it on Sunday. Then I try to restart it and pay attention and my mind wanders again.  I just can't get through it. Sorry, man.

      Physics

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I think I remember reading that Wilco Nienaber broke some record for having the fastest hands at around 27mph. His clubhead speed is probably of the order of 130mph or so, so that's roughly 5 times as fast. As Erik said, the math gets very complicated - it's at least a double pendulum system, but also with the "fixed" point moving and all the forces and torques applying to the club and the hands and the rest of the player start to get very complicated. My coach works with a biomechanist and between them they've put out a few books on the physics of the swing and it's hella complicated, but fascinating.
