Sent from my SM-G960U using MyGolfSpy mobile app Yeah I've been concentrating on making good contact with the ball and that's why I haven't been getting to the hole.

perseveringgolfer Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 one other small gripe about the watch size (sorry, another gripe but overall it's an excellent product) but it's worth everyone knowing our honest reviews particularly as a user and not a seller or marketer. I saw a shotscope review by 2 golf magazines which were gushing and only had all the marketing positives. This is where MGS and us fellow spies can affirm or contest some real world user experiences. Anyway, it's now raining here, a lot, so waterproofs everytime I play, the watch prevents putting on and taking off waterproofs quickly due to the cuffs not easily passing over the watch.

Small issue but worth noting if you play in consistent wet environments. Yeah, I'm with you on this. We've had a beautiful summer, so in polo shirts it's been great. I like small watches normally, but I've found the Shot Scope watch just disappears while you play and it hasn't bothered me at all. It was a cool morning the other day when I went to play, so I put a jumper on and suddenly had the same experience as you. I was playing with my left sleeve short and behind the watch, it wasn't comfortable to lift over the watch. It'll be interesting to see how I feel if I have to wear waterproofs over the top.

Nunfa0 Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Played in a two man Ambrose yesterday so the watch was just used as a GPS. It was the first time I have done that and the only slightly annoying thing was I had to manually change the hole at each tee but it wasn't that much of a hassle.

Har in the Hat Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Continuing to not like this device on many fronts. I know it's working great for the testers. But for me it's become a $190 or whatever I paid for it paperweigjt. Too much editing required. Menus are horrible to navigate. Totally guessing as to what button to push to find a feature. Tags come off easy. I have lost two tags, well don't know for sure it they are lost. And j secured them very well. Could be at the very bottom of my 14 way cart bag. But who wants to go to to troubke of emptying out a full cart bag and then it upside down to see if they are there. My thought is because they are midsize grips in a 14 way divider they may be running on the slots on the way out and loosening. So I shouldn't have to deal with this just because I have one of the more popular grip styles around. And the worst part is the whole joke of having to take a practice swing to activate it. I think someone else hit it when they said. They believe it's the technology in the tag and watch requiring a few extra moments to sync up and they are trying to BS you into it being an activation thing. I don't take practice swings. Never have and never will. I take a couple waggkes to get my swing path thought correct but not a full swing. You shouldn't have to change a major portion of your game to get a device to work for you. it gets a big F from me. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Very interesting thread guys.There have been a few posts about having to take a practise swing. to me that seems to be a major design flaw. As an engineer,it looks like some one at Shot scope did a poor job on understanding their end users. If this is true that you need to take a practise swing to allow it time for the watch and tag to sync is a big screw up. Can you imagine sitting in a car and having to wait for 30 seconds for the car to sync with the key fob before it will start (on the new vehicles that have keyless ignitions and use a button to start the engine)? And now I am thinking,is it 30 seconds? That seems to me inexcusably long and I am wondering if the technology is limited due to the size of the tags or due to $$$$. Are they using outdated technology?? This 30 seconds does not make sense in today's time frame where things happen in nanoseconds Think of debit cards(tap) and the card readers. would you wait 30 seconds each time?? As an Engineer,this doesn't make sense as to why they would go this route? I don't always 100% of the time take practise swings. Someone also said that the watch needs to be worn and cannot be in the bag. This has me thinking about the limitations of this. Would the watch stand up to a torrential downpour if you had to keep it on the wrist? Do GPS watches need to be worn or will they work in your pocket?

I use a rangefinder so I can't answer this Thanks guys I have read 12 pages of posts and have enjoyed it all Point 1- the 30 seconds refers to the time it takes to go back to 'course mode' if you walked on or near a green and it automatically demands putts entered, even if you still have a chip to get on the green. I don't believe theres a time specified for it to link to the sensor and shot. (at least none offered by the company) point 2 - I have used a gps watch in my pocket and also attached to my bag, works fine. The Shotscope needs to be within 10cms of the sensor on the end of the club to work. Shotscope themselves told me to take 2-3 practice swings beside my ball to ensure it will pick up the shot and club used. Not ideal as I usually take a practice swing behind the ball then walk into the shot.

Jon Brittan Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I think the "practice swings" is just to give them some breathing room. If you were in a golf cart, driving quickly between your shots and just jumping out to take them then it's going to be difficult for the system to be accurate as the GPS wouldn't have "settled" by the time you were wanting to record a shot. I really do think it's mostly just to buy them some time for accuracy so you're stood by the ball for a moment and the GPS can settle to a location. I played a "fast" round of golf tonight, 18 holes in 2 hours on foot, accelerating as I went as the light disappeared. I started the round with my usual practice swings, I do tend to take one or two.I finished the round stepping over the ball and taking my shot just to keep up with the dying light. I did have the club in hand, within range of the sensor, as I walked to the ball, but just settled over the ball and swung.Every shot from tonight has been recorded perfectly.

Nunfa0 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Har, the watch has to be worn to collect shot data but if you wanted to just use it as a GPS you could attach it to your bag. If you put it in your pocket it could lose the signal but it could be worth a try. As for the 30 second thing, I always take 1 or 2 practice swings then hit. That whole process takes between 10 to 15 seconds and I have no real issues with it collecting the shots.

BMart519 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 There is no issue about the time it takes for the club and watch to sync or the time to get an accurate GPS reading. If you were physically able to play that fast i'm not sure how you would choose a club (or judge distance yourself) as you would have to be in constant motion. Practice swings seem to be needed for putting however, as I have had results show i putted from 6 feet away to 20 feet and sunk that for a 2 putt. This is disappointing since the PinCollect feature was a primary draw for the purchase of this device. One of the larger issues I have experienced is putting/short game accuracy. Post round editing often requires dragging shot locations 3-5 yards off the green so the system doesn't track me as chipping with a 9i on the green. Similar issues with sand traps and fairway boundaries. Putting from the fringe or rough also seems to create issues. I'm not sure if it is the Map overlays up here in Canada or what but I am pretty OCD about using pin collect. Given the detail level and amount of stats provided, you ideally need 50-100 rounds of data to minimize the errors with the stats. But that is the trade off versus using a more manual system where you can select fairways hit, GIR, etc. MattF, Nunfa0 and russtopherb 3 Quote G425 MAX Driver & 5W Baffler Rail-H 3H-4H 699 Pro Utility V2 - 4i APEX CF19 6-AW INDI Wedges 52, 56, 60 EAS 2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree totally that the more you play a course, the more accurate your stats become 😀😎 Quote In my cart Bag: Driver: King F9 9° - LH - Atmos Blue TS 6 Stiff Woods: King F9 - LH - 3/4 Wood - Atmos Blue 7 Reg Z U85 2 Iron Irons: T200 4 Iron AMT White S300 T100S - LH - 3-48* - AMT White S300 Wedges: Indi FLX- LH - 52° 56° 60° - True Temper Spinner Wedge shafts Putter: 2 Bar Hybrid Ball: Pro V1x Testing: Haywood CB/MB Combo Iron Set, 4-7 Cavity backs, 8-PW Muscle Backs, True Temper Dynamic Gold 105 Stiff, 2 Degrees stronger lofts.

Jon Brittan Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 This hole was played with no practice swings at all. Every shot location is correct. It was dark enough you could only see the ball when you were stood over it and I wanted to get finished (this was my 18th hole) so was just walking up to the ball, drawing my next club, getting set over the ball and taking my shot. Obviously, I'm only sharing this to show that ShotScope can get it's positions correct without "practice swings" And, yes, I really did duff that gap wedge following that tee shot, worst strike in my entire round by a long margin. I'd intended to play past the hole onto the sloping green and suck it back to the hole, didn't quite work out that way.

Nunfa0 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Nice Jon, one big advantage Shot Scope has over Arccos is you don't need sunlight for it to work. So if you're lucky enough to play night golf somewhere, ie Turkey, Portugal, UAE etc, it will still work ðŸ˜ðŸ˜Ž GeekingGolf 1 Quote In my cart Bag: Driver: King F9 9° - LH - Atmos Blue TS 6 Stiff Woods: King F9 - LH - 3/4 Wood - Atmos Blue 7 Reg Z U85 2 Iron Irons: T200 4 Iron AMT White S300 T100S - LH - 3-48* - AMT White S300 Wedges: Indi FLX- LH - 52° 56° 60° - True Temper Spinner Wedge shafts Putter: 2 Bar Hybrid Ball: Pro V1x Testing: Haywood CB/MB Combo Iron Set, 4-7 Cavity backs, 8-PW Muscle Backs, True Temper Dynamic Gold 105 Stiff, 2 Degrees stronger lofts.

Har in the Hat Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Is this to early or do you guys have any comparisons ( ie- with friends or playing partners) to the Arccos system?

Nunfa0 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 ie - using the cell phone? No the Arccos sensors have to have enough light for them to turn on. They are battery powered and when you put the club in your bag and it goes dark they turn off. So if it's too dark when you're playing the sensor won't turn on when you take the club out.

dhartmann34 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I'm still Loving this thing. Very little editing... And when there is it's usually because of user error. In regards to someone saying a practice swing is needed to activate it, that's complete crap. I have had plenty of swings without a practice swing and they all pick up. I honestly can't think of one time it hasn't picked up a shot of mine. It's been great with distances and stats. Still comfortable on my wrist. Distances are great. Definitely the best option it there if you want a GPS watch and want to keep these type of in depth stats.
