  1. I can’t say for sure but when I had the mevo I sat it in the ground just like the plus. I can say without a doubt though that I’d get more realistic readings from the regular mevo for distance with the driver
  2. I was told by CS that you want the Plus in the ground. Not on something to level it. Then you adjust the tee height and hitting zone in the settings to match the mat.
  3. Do you adjust your tee height? By leaving that at zero even though I’m over an inch above and set to 7’ in the setting but 8’ actual distance has helped slightly. Im content with adjusting the Temp, Humidity, and Elevation for my sim rounds. For me all the other numbers on the Flightscope range are more for comparing clubs than actually dialing in clubs.
  4. Got some more swings in today. Still not seeing numbers I usually do on the course unless I manipulate the Temperature, Humidity, and Elevation. It’s easy enough to do just wish I didn’t have to. Need to get it outside to see if that helps. I’m inside a metal building so I’m hoping that’s the culprit. I do find the e6 range closer to what I see on course as well but still slightly short. I did find that even though the Plus sits on the ground and my mat is about an inch thick, setting the mevo to 0” lowered spin by about 500 on average compared to the 1” setting. That upped carry distance a little better.
  5. The explanation for some heads is up in world of wunder https://worldofwunder.callawaygolf.com/waste-management-phoenix-open-tour-report-gallery-and-breakdown-of-all-the-tour-heads-plus-ai-one-cruisers-hit-pre-order/
  6. Take a peak at the Flightscope progression test going on. The Mevo is tough to beat imo for the price.
  7. I believe the radar picks up the ball. I’ve yet to have the mevo or plus read a practice swing
  8. I’m not on the slow swing speed end but I played the 5s last year in a Paradym TD and it was good. If I wasn’t such a club ho’ it’d probably still be in the bag. Had really good feel. I know that doesn’t help a ton but it’s a really really good lightweight shaft.
  9. Gonna be mia this weekend for Valentine’s Day with the wife so I took tomorrow off. Gonna get some numbers and a round in.
  10. Gotta say first night with the Cobra was impressive. It came with a 70X linq white which was too much for me but my local guy gave me a 6x proxima shaft and wow. EASILY the longest combo I’ve hit on that simulator. I was centering everything. Center contact and center fairway with nice tight baby draws. Carry never dropped below 270 and spin never got above 3000(I think I had 1 that was 2900 majority were mid 2’s). My swing was in top form as we played the back 9 at TPC Scottsdale. 2-man scramble. Shot -8 with 2 useable shots from my partner. The Darkspeed LS is definitely one of the lower spinning drivers I have hit in a long time. Gotta get some swings in on the Mevo Plus for the review but it has a real shot at staying in the bag.
  11. If you want a quick bandaid continue to move your right foot back until you are hitting hooks. I don’t mean widening your stance though. Don’t stop when you are hitting it straighter either. When I fixed my bad slice, I read that to fix it permanently you had to go past straight flight to draw/hook and work back to straight from there. Pair this with the feeling that you are trying to hit the ball to “right field” with your follow through.
  12. I can’t really give a good alternative. Your best bet would be to drop a message to @JohnnyCallaway and he may be able to shed some light on the Smoke TD Max
  13. I can’t say for sure but I’d be surprised if it comes to retail.
  14. For those curious about the shape of the 8*. Here is a pic next to the Paradym TD.
  15. I didn’t get that far into it. I use an all fit adapter so I don’t have the standard callaway draw setting.
  16. Honestly for me the Smoke was slightly longer though we are splitting hairs there. I ended up moving on from it as it was more fade biased than I prefer.
  17. Very well done on the unofficial review. I’m tempted to pick up a regular Mezz but haven’t pulled the trigger just yet
  18. I love how everyone is using the Mevo Plus differently. Shows how versatile is.
  19. Nice. When you are ready to upgrade keep an eye on their twitter and instagram pages. They seem to do trade in bonuses for the mevo towards the plus periodically
  20. PGA show savings are already on flightscopes website and it’s basically 15%
  21. Ok got an 18 hole round in at Stone Canyon. Wasn’t terrible but I was using my BIL driver as my Darkspeed LS will be here tomorrow. Pretty happy with the +7. I will say this, the impact screen is much better than the target. I think my shot shape will get even better once the projector is up. Same ball for 2 rounds and a little range time @Josh Parker Only mark I could find and it did hit some open concrete. I did a quick experiment for what I was seeing for numbers. I change the tee height from 1”(actually right) to 3”(cuz I was hitting driver). Holy cow it was crazy. Spin jumped up to 6500 from just that change. 3”- 1”-
  22. No scuffs at all today on my ball or the BIL’s ball. Used a new RCT ball and it still looked better after all my shots today than one shot with the target. From what I’ve found they want no more than 7’ from ball to mevo plus for putting. I’ve been tempted to turn my 5x10 matzilla sideways to try it out but haven’t taken the plunge yet. Maybe that’s what I’ll do tomorrow.
  23. Interesting data. I’m seeing the Mevo Plus understating the numbers I usually see. Again this could be due to the mat adding spin
  24. I believe it’s just over 1” think. When I get the permanent build going in my garage, I’m gonna build a hitting area then cheap felt/turf between the mat and screen for putting. I thought about making something quick and cheap for now but not sure I wanna worry about it right now.
