  1. Hello Friends, good morning, and I hope everyone is having a great week. I am going to print this picture and carry on my wallet to give it to my doctor every time he tells me that I should lose some weight.
  2. Hello Friends, Good morning. I hope everyone is having a great week so far.
  3. Him making the putt, I rather win, but if I'm to lose it would be better to lose to someone else's skill than my mess up.
  4. Hello there Friends, good morning and happy Friday 13th. I hope everyone have had a great week so far, and will have a great weekend.
  5. That is awesome, congrats on the engagement anniversary. And some people think that Friday the 13th is unlucky.
  6. Adding a couple of new areas to the review Aesthetics (9 out of 10) This device is an absolute beauty! Its sleek design is a real eye-catcher, and it's got me hooked from the moment I laid eyes on it. The aesthetics are spot-on; I can't help but appreciate the sheer elegance of this gadget. But, hold on, there's a small hiccup – those legs. They seem a tad flimsy, and I'm the kind of person who tends to be a bit rough with things, not on purpose, mind you. I'd much prefer legs that exude robustness and steadiness, just to put my clumsy worries at ease. The size of this device is perfect – it's compact enough to carry around with ease, making it a breeze to take to the range or on the course. And the carrying case? It's solid, and I can't help but feel that it's the guardian angel for this unit during transportation. I mean, I'm a little clumsy, and accidents happen. Dropping it? No problem. With this case, I've got full confidence that the unit will come out unscathed, ready for action. Now, sure, there might not be any custom options for this unit, but who needs 'em? This gadget is purpose-built for training, and it doesn't need any bedazzling. It's all about getting the job done, and this device is up to the task. Speaking of durability, I have faith that this unit is here to stay for a good long while. Well, as long as I don't have any clumsy incidents with those legs. I can easily picture this becoming my go-to gadget for range sessions in the upcoming seasons, as long as it continues to be supported by Rapsodo. It's the game-changer I've been waiting for. The Numbers (20 out of 20) It's essential to be transparent, so let me address a few observations. I did notice some variations in the data between different types of golf balls, such as range balls, RPT balls, and regular golf balls, including those with the RPT pattern. The RPT balls seemed to provide more consistent feedback, even on mishits, while occasionally, range balls yielded slightly different yardage and shot shapes after a mishit. This unit's precision is commendable, as I've mentioned previously. After a few rounds on the range, I took it to the course, and I was genuinely pleased. The unit's responses regarding shot direction and distance proved accurate, making it easy to locate my ball. The distances measured were spot-on with what I've tracked over time. However, on rare occasions at the range, there were outlier distances. I suspect this might be due to my own setup or human error rather than the unit itself. The abundance of data available for analyzing your range sessions is impressive. It's an invaluable tool for those with strong control over their golf game, but even amateurs like myself can benefit from this data. I've been particularly attentive to my driver, using feedback on launch angle to ensure a consistent ascending strike. I've realized that near-neutral or negative angles were costing me distance off the tee. During range sessions, I practiced various shots and distances, and the unit consistently captured the results. For instance, in simulations, I had to hit 40- or 25-yard shots with half swings, and the unit performed admirably. Setting up this unit is remarkably straightforward, as mentioned earlier. It typically takes less than a minute to get it up and running. The sturdy USB-C cable doesn't require any special charging brick; a standard iPhone charger does the job. After a few hours of initial charging, subsequent charges only take a couple of hours. I've also noticed the unit's impressive battery life. After an hour and a half on the range, I still had about 70% battery life remaining. I encountered no issues during the setup process, so there was no need to seek online assistance or contact customer service. However, I did encounter a minor hiccup with the code for the e6 courses, as the email generated post-unit registration was blank. I reached out to Rapsodo, and their response was prompt. They provided a new code and assured me they were addressing the issue with e6. Their response time was excellent, even when I emailed them on a Saturday evening; I received a response first thing Monday morning. I'd rate their customer support a solid 10/10. Out of the 13 available metrics, I believe each of them has its importance for my game. However, the most crucial metrics for me are clubhead speed, total carry, and launch angle, as they collectively contribute to improving my tee-off game. I've used the shot type metric less frequently, as my primary focus is on maintaining straight shots for now. Another aspect I appreciate about this unit is the session insights it provides, allowing you to review your accuracy, distance, and consistency for each club used. Trust me, this unit is a valuable addition to any golfer's toolkit.
  7. We got way too many sharp and blunt things around the house for me to even try to mess around this weekend.
  8. Hello Friends, Good morning, I hope that everyone is having a great week. A couple special days today and tomorrow here are home. Today is our 10th wedding anniversary. And tomorrow has been 17 years since my wife and I met, coincidentally it was a Friday 13th back then too. I guess no golf this weekend.
  9. Hello Friends, Good morning. I hope everyone is having a wonderful week so far.
  10. Hello Friends, good morning, I hope everyone have a great Tuesday.
  11. Cold here today. Still got a chance to go to the range, this wind was whipping hard. A new feature unlocked on the MLM2Pro, I got the swing vision, since now I can set my phone front facing camera to film me. I love the side by side video feedback, I absolutely enjoy that you can get more metrics on that view, I just wish I could export the swing vision videos. Cool to see my set up. I did change the loft of my driver mid session, I'm trying to improve that launch angle. I think it helped a bit. I had to use the screen recording on my phone to be able to show the swing vision video. RPReplay_Final1696793631.mov Despite being cold, it was gorgeous out there.
  12. Hello there friends. Good morning and happy Friday to everyone. A cool 58 degrees to start the day here in southeast Michigan. I hope everyone have a great weekend coming up.
  13. I am hoping that Lexi does really well, and make it to the weekend, I do not think that she will contend for the win, but I am hoping a top 25 for her, she got a great deal of talent.
  14. Hello there friends. I hope everyone is having a good week so far.
  15. Hello Friends, Good morning. Happy Tuesday to everyone.
  16. Hello there friends, good morning and a happy Sunday to everyone.
  17. Hello friends, good morning. A happy Saturday to everyone, watching these 4 matches, and hoping the US to do a clean sweep and taking it to Sunday with a chance of a come back.
  18. Hello Friends, good morning, what a rough start to the cup. Still go US.
  19. I wish I had started with the combine, it is a great mode and I'm really happy about the feedback from it.
  20. I completely understand, seeing where your club actually is at impact is very informative and humbling.
  21. Hello there friends. Good morning, I hope everyone is having a great day. And even better it is Ryder Cup time.
  22. Busy day today here, so a very late good morning to everyone. I hope all had a great day and great evening.
  23. No, I am never happy with my swing, I have been working on it all year, first to try and tame my slice, I have been working on the clubhead delivery, making sure it is square at impact has been my main goal this season so far. With that finally working I need to work on the alignment, checking my self and remind that I do not need to aim far left anymore, I have that build feeling and I am most time s than none find myself holding my shoulders and club path to the left of the target. I also need to work on my swing plane, and ensure that my club is on an upswing at delivery and that I am consistently standing the same distance from the ball, I have had issues with topping or swing under it with my driver as of late. I love the impact vision on the rapsodo, because I can see that perfectly, and can work on my stance and distance to the ball. You can see the under the ball hit and top hill shot perfectly here. I do want to work with a coach on getting some training to develop a proper full swing, where I can tie it all up.
