TESTERS WANTED (4) INTL WELCOME OUR TESTERS! @JerBooth @greggarner @JerryB @Chip Strokes --- From day one, Shotscope changed on-course data collection. The company developed technology that lets RFID club tags communicate automatically with a wrist band to capture shots. However, the wrist band itself was a problem. Shotscope’s original V1 band featured no GPS functionality, just data collection. It was also roughly the size of one of Her Majesty’s aircraft carriers. Shotscope V2 was a considerable improvement. Unfortunately, while considerably smaller, V2 was still the size of a Royal Destroyer. Now with the V3 GPS band, Shot Scope offers a full slate of stat-tracking and peformance management features, including strokes-gained analytics. With that, we'd like to get feedback from MyGolfSpy readers. We are looking for 4 dedicated, hard working testers to try out the newest version including the RFID tags! Added bonus - V3 comes in fancy new colorways to match your golfing outfit! A feature I know all of you are most excited about

With the recently posted Forum Test for the Sub70 849 Pro Driver I feel now seems like the perfect time to share a Strokes Gained Spreadsheet I have been working on. I will also state upfront that this was made using the bones of another SG spreadsheet and is by no mean was created from scratch by myself. This particular version is set up for Drivers but could be changed to work for any tee club. Everyone can feel free to make a personal copy of the attached Google Sheets file and have at it. Feel free to edit it, use it for personal performance tracking, club testing or whatever you can come up with. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ew_dxOBtpp7Lp4nT88m-LBLAE2hTvSzEyHfOT8IvOQU/edit?usp=sharing Note: If you are interested in a full SG Spreadsheet shoot me a DM and I can send you what I have. Be warned that the full version is a beast of a spreadsheet though

My bebrassie test I don't like sensors on the club or belt. I just want to record my game using the phone. Besides, I don't want to have to get my phone out every shot to enter something. So I tried bebrassie ... First I have to say that there is a free trial period. I think that's good. The principle is simple. Go on the tee, start round on the app, put the phone in your pocket and off you go. If you like, you can use a range finder, a yardage book and an electronic scorecard on the phone. I didn't do that because I didn't want to use the phone during the round. At the end of the round (I only played 9 holes for the test) I finished recording. Then I was asked to enter my score ... which I did (including the number of putts). Okay, I remembered it well. Then you see a short summary and then upload your round. Until then everything is easy. But now you have to edit your round. This is necessary to get the advertised Strokes Gained statistics. The edit process works very intuitive. For each hole you can see the hole from top view. And there is one white dot per shot you made. The putts are already on the green. To make it easier to understand where you made your shots, you get shown your walked way (GPS) and (at least full swings) there are large red circles located where the phone has detected a shot/swing. Now you drag and drop the white dots where you had hit a shot. During the installation, I have defined my personal shot lengths in the settings, so in the table on the right (on the iPad, on the phone it is synonymous - but I have not tried), the clubs are displayed, which I should have taken for the according distance. For example, I had to change my driver twice, because I hit it so short that bebrassie proposed a wood 5 for me. I needed more than 10 minutes for the 9-hole round ... but on the first holes I had to look all over the functions to get an overview. I'm sure in the future I'll make it in 5 minutes. At the end you have to sign your round (like in a tournament) and then get directly to the statistics. And here comes the real value of bebrassie: you get really cool and meaningful statistics. Even though a 9-hole round still does not provide enough data for all categories, bebrassie shows me what a hacker I am ... but I also see that I putt really well. All in all, bebrassie made a good first impression. But you realize that the developers are sitting in Germany ... real engineers, everything is very precisely adjustable.
