@PrecisionProGolf I live at 6300’, and have a couple of questions.
1) When I put in all of my launch monitor numbers, can I put them in for my current location, or do they need to be normalized to sea level?
2) if I do put them in for my current location, will the R1 give me adjusted readings when I go play at sea level? A rangefinder that can do that would be huge for me, instead of trying to calculate the altitude adjustments in my head. It’s quite challenging to know what club to hit when you’re used to playing in the mountains, then try to play in the dense, humid air at sea level.
Hi @scott80109, we have some answers!
1) That depends on the launch monitor you used. Most will normalize the data for you automatically. So your data should be good to enter!
2) Once you enter your data the R1 will do the rest and adjust according to your environment even if you are in the mountains, at sea level, or in humid conditions.

I was really interested in getting one of these until reading this thread. I may still get one to try eventually, but not until all the bugs are worked out.
Can this be connected to Bluetooth on a phone and have a speaker connected as well? I didn't think more than one thing could be connected at once.
Hi @mikewohlwend glad that you are still interested! As for your connection question, you are able to connect to the R1 and to a speaker at the same time.

I'm immensely grateful for the reply here. For the most part, I had kinda given up on using the app during rounds, because it wasn't giving me any numbers on the rangefinder.
But my issue is that this is what I see in app permissions right now:
I'm not seeing an option to allow the app to have access to my location all the time. For reference, I'm running a Galaxy Note 10 Lite on Android 11.
@GolfSpy MPRThank you for the screenshot and information. Android does a better job of running apps in the background compared to Apple so the settings you have it on are correct. Do you mind making sure the app is completely updated?

Went ahead and sent the R1 back today. The deciding factor was when I went to go play 9 at the drop-of-a-hat and the R1 wasn’t charged… It’s too much bother for me to always have to have it plugged-in “just-in-case” I might run to the range or go play.
It really is a great product from a usage standpoint! The optics, speed, magnet, etc we’re all just as good as anything out there, so this wasn’t a decision made on quality or performance, just convenience for me. If I were retired and played every day, it wouldn’t be a factor because I’d just keep it plugged-in!
@PMookie @GolfSpy MPR Thank you both for the honest feedback. We are constantly trying to improve and hearing your experiences helps tremendously. A couple of things we have noticed is first, the battery life is increasing after initial usage. Once you have played a couple of rounds and recharged it, it will begin to hold the charge longer which means it will last more rounds. The second is allowing the app to track your location when it isn't being used. This allows us to get your GPS location on the course when your phone is closed that way you don't have to unlock it. Changing that setting keeps your phone and R1 connected at all times and provides GPS for front, middle, back at the click of a button.

Sounds like great information. At the worst case it should be considered educational on how wind actually influences the shot. Does the device measure the wind real time, is it based on weather forecasts, and is it at the location of the device or general wind information for the course as a whole?
Great point on how helpful it can be for someone to see just how much wind affects a shot! Our app uses a real-time weather API to get the most up-to-date wind information based on your GPS location.

Took the R1 out for a quick 9 tonight. I didn’t select the wind and slope on the app… Ugh. Question though: if those are turned-on in the app, is the distance I see in the reticle adjusted for the wind? I know it is for slope…
Wind Assist isn't calculated into the distance. It is a separate number you see alongside your MySlope and distance. For example, you could see + or - 11 yards depending on if you are into the wind or down breeze.

Great! Thanks!
I just gotta figure out how to get the info the cheapest/most accurate way possible. Indoors on Trackman isn’t great due to spin being a “guess”, now after MGS Ball Test, using range balls outside isn’t great either except with driver, and I know no one with a GC Quad. So, will the numbers I enter even be accurate? I’ll probably not worry about it for awhile. I used Arccos for the wind calculation, and a laser for the flag distance, and combining info from both worked just fine since I know my iron distances. I should be good without it for now.
Thanks!!!
Great question! If you are worried about your Trackman data make sure to select the normalization option when exporting. This will allow your data to be adjusted if you are using a range ball, if there is bad weather, or if you are inside. Even if your data isn't as exact as you'd hope our MySlope formula still does a great job giving you accurate readings for your swing!

Could you just take 5 shots with each club to get those gaps even if it does not produce a report. Also that feels expensive, I am paying 50 and hour for GC Quad time, but that's another matter.
Spot on! You could even take one swing with each club on a launch monitor as long as you believe it is your stock shot. We suggest you take 3-5 swings with each club that accurately represent how you typically hit the ball. Then enter your average carry distance, spin rate, launch angle, and ball speed for each club. This will provide you with the most accurate MySlope possible!

Are there any discount codes that apply to the NX9 as there are for the other range finders in this line?
It just so happens that you're currently in luck! The NX9 HD is currently on sale for $40 off!
The NX9 HD is our latest, greatest rangefinder. It has a wider, brighter display that makes reading the distance to your target even easier. It's also faster than our NX7 series rangefinders -- which means it's almost instantaneous, because the NX7 series are already pretty dang fast -- and it comes with lifetime free battery replacement services with purchase.
The NX9 HD is also one of the few rangefinders that has the magnet lock feature that means it has a powerful magnet inside the casing that allows golfer to secure the rangefinder to the side of a golf cart.
Hope this helps! -

Did a search and couldn't find anything on this topic, so excuse me if this has been brought up before.
I'm having LCD issues with my rangefinder where the distances aren't displaying. The laser and jolt work just fine. But when a distance is supposed to appear, I either get nothing or maybe 1 bar that is supposed to be part of a number.
It's the Bushnell TOUR V3. I bought it a little over a year ago. I've already contacted Bushnell CS. They were pretty short and not very helpful in both emails and over the phone.
From what I gather, even if I were to send the product in, it could take them up to 5 weeks to have it back in my hands and even then, it's not a guarantee that they could even fix it.
So has anyone ever had this issue?
And no, the rangefinder never got wet. I always keep it cased. I already changed the battery, left the battery out of it for 3 days, and have never dropped it.
Hi, @KronosPaul. We hope your rangefinder was either fixed or replaced by now, but if that's isn't the case, we'd like to help. (And help everyone on MyGolfSpy who has had a bad experience with another rangefinder company.) We're offering a 20% discount for all of our rangefinders when you trade-in your current rangefinder for either the NX7, NX7 Pro Slope, or the all-new NX9 HD Slope rangefinder by Precision Pro Golf.

NX7 Pro Slope -- List Price: $249.00 | 20% Off: $199.20
NX7 -- List Price: List Price: $199.00 | 20% Off: $159.20
If you're interested, just email [email protected] and we'll get this taken care of. Every golfer deserves a rangefinder that they can trust! Thanks!

One of our guys bought a Laser Range Finder few weeks ago. The grumbling has started about how slow he’s gotten checking, dbl checking distances. He was a little slow to begin with.
Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpyIn our experience, a slow player is a slow player. A rangefinder isn't going to really exacerbate that issue if it's already an issue. He'll just be a slow player who actually knows which club to hit.

Rangefinder Issues
in General Q&A
Posted
Sorry to hear that you've had trouble with your Gogogo rangefinder, @ndstrand. We're obviously a bit biased when it comes to which rangefinder we think is the best, but we still wanted to share our thoughts on the subject.
First off... a couple of people on this thread used the words "confidence" and "trust" in regards to their rangefinders. This is how we think about it, too. A rangefinder doesn't just measure a distance; what a GOOD rangefinder truly does is instill confidence. Our goal is that golfers will trust buying from Precision Pro and they'll have confidence in their rangefinder. This is why we have invested so much in our customer service and now have the industry-leading protection plan. It's also why we recently released the NX10 rangefinder.
The NX10 is our newest rangefinder. It's customizable and interchangeable, which means you can have one rangefinder with dozens of different designs. (Image attached) However... what golfers will appreciate most is the all-new industrial design and the build quality of the NX10. You'll immediately be able to feel the difference between this rangefinder and other rangefinders -- even over our previous models. It's the best rangefinder we've ever built and, in our tests, outperforms the competition in terms of reliability, durability, and picking up the flag. (Especially at picking up the flag at over 150 yards out.)
Happy to answer any questions you might have about it. We're in the works with the MyGolfSpy team to try to do some MGS Forum Testing with the NX10, so keep your eye out. Thanks, all!
