No line. My ADHD and OCD brain would blow a gasket trying to align 1 inch with 10ft. I'm doing my best currently to shorten my routine and suck at golf a little faster 🤣🤣

You're that short with the blades for a few reasons. 
 
1. They're shorter because theyre older.  Your Atomic 180yd 7i is the same loft as that blade 5i, most likely. 
2. The Atomic has WAY more tech in dealing with any shot not dead center on the face.  In fact the blade probably doesnt even deal with a dead center strike.  Modern "blades" are "musclebacks" and have a bit of meat behind the sweet spot.  But even most of those have perimeter weighting, tungsten plugs, invisible things under the pretty surface that deal with GC, MOI, COR.  
So your blades falling short are probably a combo of loft and less power due to missing the sweet spot.  
I bet it's super fun to play them though.  Don't let anyone stop you.  But knowing why is good 🙂

Congrats! 
When I signed up for this one, I was going to comment that I likely had access to a hitting bay at home. We were under contract for a property down the road. Alas, the septic inspection yielded total replacement. Seller balked so we cancelled 😞
This would have been pretty neat though.

Not to side track but that is crazy, in our state you can't sell a house with a failing septic. Someone we knew had this happen when they went to sell there house and indeed they had to replace the whole system before they could finalize the sale.

Without a doubt this was one of the most requested items for member testing and we are so happy that Rapsodo agreed to come on board with this member test. It should be a lot of fun and a great test to follow along with!
A lot of you already know me and my intro so I will go over with the short version here and stay mainly to my golf game. 
My name is Jamie and I am the Forum Director here for MyGolfSpy Forum. You will see me all over the forum posting way too much and doing my best to be the most active person here. I am originally from Canada, but moved to Switzerland just over 3 years ago. While it may seem impossible and many think that I am a bot I do have an actual day job as an Ice Technician making ice for curling events and halls all over the world. It is essentially my dream job and I truly love what I do. 

When I moved to Switzerland it took me a while to get back into golf. Changing countries, different languages and all made it quite difficult. However I have found a home at a course called Otelfingen Golf Park near Zurich Switzerland. 
I played a lot of golf this season despite my wife and I welcoming our second child (Audrey) in June. It was an up and down season, however a little later in the year I started to find a groove and play some proper golf. Now that the season is cold golf is still available, but I have enjoyed more practice with my son and using my at home setup more. This is where the Rapsodo MLM2Pro came in. 

My Initial Impressions were to be straight up stellar. I had the original MLM and gifted it to a colleague as while I enjoyed the unit, in the end I found it to be a nice to have device and not something which I found had a lot of longevity to its use. 
The ability to work with android was also a game changer for the MLM2PRO. Although I have an ipad and other apple devices, my daily devices are all android based. 
In terms of setup, the setup of the unit couldn’t be easier. With phone in hand everything is marked and within a matter of seconds you can have the whole unit aligned for your session on the range or at home into a net.
The carry case is awesome too. I am not sure if anyone mentioned it prior, but I love the size and how it keeps everything organized has a little pocket to hold charging cable or other devices you may have. Only pitfall is maybe it would be nice to be a shade bigger so it could hold a couple of the RPT Golf Balls. 
The app is largely the same and I do have some suggestions for improvement, some of which have been addressed, others I am still waiting on which I will go over later. 
The unit itself is very sturdy and feels like a high quality build. The change in color and out of the box is everything I had been hoping for. With that I am awarding the Rapsodo MLM2PRO a 8/10 for First Impressions. 
Aesthetics

So I covered a bit of this prior in my first impressions, but I want to touch on a few other things other than the build of the unit itself. 
I got so many looks and questions at the range with this device. I had dozens of people wanting to try it out and see how it worked. This included a pro coming up to me and asking if we could take to the Trackman and compare the data. Unfortunately I was packing up and didn’t have time so we are going to try and do that later. 
Bottom line this thing is an eye opener and with it grabbing so much attention there is definitely a lot of positives to say from that. 
The build again and looks as well as color scheme is exactly what I like. Not too flashy, but solid and the fact it is as small as it is and can fit in the bag is an extreme positive. 
Truly nothing to knock here 10/10!
The Numbers -

Let’s be honest here we could go on and on for days with the numbers. Several of our other testers have done an excellent job of highlighting the accuracy and finer points. So here are my highlights.
On the Range
Data points are really good. Whether comparing to top tracer or shooting yardages with my range finder I found what Rapsodo was showing to be extremely accurate and following the ball flight with great accuracy.  Missed shots? Yes there were a few, but  not enough to make note of. The additional updates to chip shots has made a big difference as well.  This is both a good and bad thing for me. There are 13 data points available for your viewing. On the screen (phone or tablet) it will show you the 4 which you select. If you want the other pieces you need to stop and press and hold or highlight the shot to view the full data. It is all there, just takes a bit extra viewing.  Into the Net
Some found data to be a little less reliable here, but the key is the RPT balls. Use them and this thing is money. I have spend the majority of my time using the MLM2PRO into my net and love it. I will say I don’t 100% know about the driver data. I do trust it, however sometimes I felt it left me a little short. Or maybe that is more my ego.  While I did struggle for a bit of time on shorter chips this was remedied with the most recent app update.  Simulation
Again I used this into the net and Csiders13 did a great job of highlighting the options available. However I loved the simulation feature and this was the complete game changer for me.  Of the 3 options I have stuck mainly to the Rapsodo courses. I have played several rounds all on various courses, some I have played some I have not. Most importantly I used the MLM2PRO as a warmup for a tournament at a course that I had never played. The course design overall was great, however I noted the elevation changes didn’t come off as accurately and trees acted like walls and there was no chance to get through them. However I can honestly say that it helped me prepare for the round and without question saved me several strokes. Options within the simulation and for the price is just top notch. I will have more updates on this as the season progresses. 
Overall the numbers here are very reliable and at the price it gives any purchaser a lot for their money. The main thing again is use the RPT balls. It makes a world of a difference. 
Given all the above I believe a fair rating of 17 out of 20 is fair. 
On Course - Adapted
I will admit I haven’t been able to use this on course as yet. Between rain, course density and availability has been too limited. 
However I will take this space to share my thoughts on the cameras and features. 
The ability to take one swing and have 3 different and usable camera views of the same swing was game changing. Being able to breakdown and analyze your swing from down the line, impact and face on using your phone or tablet is simply the best.
Being able to see deflection on the club face via the shot vision is astounding and humbling. However it is the ability to go slowly frame by frame that is the difference marker. I can breakdown my swing, release, takeaway and strike frame by frame and see the changes that cause each action. As someone who has been working on swing changes this is another standout feature which all golfers can benefit from.
The App

While there is so many great features on the app, it may be the area where I am most picky. The basic features are there and carry over from the original with some obvious additions. There are a few things I would maybe tweak or change with the app, however Rapsodo has continued to push through regular updates that addressed any initial qualms I had. These include in their most recent update a bulk club add feature. The one time I had issues connecting it was remedied by a quick app update and off we went!
So what I liked

Cloud Storage! The ability to hold and go back view previous sessions for reference is a true standout.  Session insights - When finishing a session if you have taken at least 5 shots with a single club it will provide you with a insights which gives you additional data comparing your game vs a pro or handicap of your choosing. It will help you know where to focus your next practice session with those clubs.  Dual cameras I have already messaged, but should be said again. So good.  Gapping sessions and overall data available to dive into.  Simulation which again I have gone over.  What I didn’t like as much

Adding Clubs and switching club inventory. This is where I think the most can be done. While some updates have added being able to do bulk clubs. I haven’t found how to use the inventory as I wish to.  Simulation club input. Now maybe I need to do some more digging, but when I have done simulation and just simply played. When I ended the round all the clubs were listed as driver. Not the end of the world, but I think I need to select each club each time which I understand.  I did not have any other issues or hiccups throughout the testing period. 

Other questions I have seen asked are about battery life and for the phone. I use a Pixel 6 Pro and could use it for a full hour session or simulation on HD and only lose 35 to 40 percent of phone battery life. The unit itself I charged once every 3 sessions which seemed suitable. 
We also have a section called The Good, The Bad, The In between. I have covered a lot and rather than rehashing I will trust you can understand what I see as good or bad so far. Therefore I am going to skip through a little bit and go straight to the Play it or Trade it?
Is there any question? No, I am playing this. I am thrilled with this device and it is becoming a centre piece for training, my swing changes and my home setup as well as range practice. 
Easy 20/20 here. 
Conclusion
I am going to sum this up quickly by saying I really enjoyed the original MLM, however the MLM2PRO has taken Rapsodo from a nice to have to a must have piece of equipment for me.
The data you get, the video analysis, cloud storage, price, camera options and simulation have made this a go to device for me and I will highly recommend it to anyone considering this device for all facets of their game. 
Final score is 92/100
Update: November 20, 2023
I have touched on this prior, however the addition of the new R-Cloud system is a deal breaker for me. If there was anything or anyone on the fence that kinda made me feel that the MLM2Pro was falling short it was that there was no way to view my stuff on PC and limited to the app. This changes that for the better in every way. 
 

TESTERS ANNOUNCED!
The personal launch monitor space has grown immensely over the years and Rapsodo is introducing their new MLM2Pro. 

The original MLM from Rapsodo consistently came top of MyGolfSpys most wanted testing in a variety of categories since its original launch. The Rapsodo MLM2Pro looks to build off that foundation while bringing new features and abilities to help golfers improve their games and practice while not breaking the bank. 
Here are some of the highlighted features straight from Rapsodo.
“The all new MLM2PRO™ Mobile Launch Monitor + Golf Simulator
Dual optical camera vision + radar processing for precision accuracy
Shot Vision and Impact Vision for multi-option swing replay
Simulation at 30,000+ golf courses
13 metrics - 6 measured metrics - including spin rate and spin axis
Apple and Android compatible
Rapsodo Combines - 24 total shots - 2 approach targets - 1 driver target
Full functionality indoors and outdoors”
Where the original Rapsodo MLM was great for practice and training, the addition of being a golf simulator and being able to read spin rates is very intriguing. Not to mention it is now Android compatible! 
Please welcome and congratulate our testers for the Rapsodo MLM2Pro!

42 still a great score for me, especially the way my game has been. 6 pars 🙂

It's rad that you all have the option to mix the sets. I'm currently playing 2021 t200 5,6,7 and t100 8,9,PW.

Agreed. Should lead to all of us getting a set that is perfectly tuned to our games. To say that I’m excited is mildly understating it. 😬
Did you have to do anything for the loft gap between the 7 & 8? Or did it work out without changing the lofts?
How do you like them?

I love them. 
1) my first true fitted set. I booked an appointment w Titleist fitter at our course, hit off grass outside with trackman, got into a few shafts. He started me with a T300 but after 1 shot (which went amazing) I asked "what about a T2/T1 combo?" And he was on board. Though we based it off hitting a t200 7i. I did get to try the T100 PW and hit it just fine. 
2) the T100 are bent 1° strong to blend with the T200. Through email I inquired about T100-s, because the lofts are closer to T200 than T100 and the fitter said something about the tungsten weighting I didn't quite understand, but I trusted him. It worked out. My gaps are right on. The only drawback is that the soles now have 1° less bounce, and the T100 soles are stupid-thin to begin with.  For this test, I had signed up for t150. I was super torn between T150 and T200. I would totally recommend trying T200/T150 split set if it's anything like what I have now. 
 

It really goes to show what Titleist is looking for and how well they have thought through this testing opportunity.
They don't simply want to ship out whatever stock set to our testers. They want the real deal and want to make sure testers get a Titleist experience along with being setup appropriately for their reviews. 
Could lead to some surprises, I hesitate to say disappointment, but maybe just unexpected results (similar to what happened with my t series fit). 
I recall (the pm chat has almost been as bad as the cobra one haha) 2 of the testers should have fits today (Thursday).

Was anyone selected for the driving iron??
