The boundaries of the green based on satellite photos don't always align perfectly with where the green actually it. I find way more value in pacing off the distance from the flag to edge of green and then to the ball to get a better idea of the carry vs roll numbers for the chip. Walking around the green would also be slower. I agree and walking around the green doesn't always work for me. I simply navigate the pin collect screens and return to the distance screen or leave it on pin collect and just keep going. tony@CIC, cksurfdude and MattF 3 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: XCG7 Beta 15* w/Fujikura Fuel Hybrids: 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54/12D, 60/8M w/Accra iWedge 90 Graphite Putter: Sacks Parente MC 3 Stripe Backup Putters: Milled Collection RSX 2, mFGP2, Futura 5W, TM-180 Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks but I have the Arccos free trail from my Ping clubs, was deciding whether to stay and pay the sub or move across to ShotScope as I got the V3 or if I should return that now I got the new Apple Watch that can handle Arccos (as don't like to play with phone in pocket) but only watch would only just about make 9holes with Arccos battery drain. Can probably do 54 with this new watch before it would give out. cksurfdude and tony@CIC 2 Quote Driver - G425 LST, ALTA CB SLATE 55 STIF TSR3, ACCRA TZ6 60g M4 3 WOOD - G425 SFT, TOUR 75 STIFF 3 HYBRID - G425, HZRDUS SMOKE BLACK 80 RDX HYBRID 4 HYBRID - G425, HZRDUS SMOKE BLACK 80 RDX HYBRID IRONS 5-PW - T150, KBS TOUR 110 WEDGES - GLIDE 4.0, KBS HI-REV 2 , 50degree/54degree/58degree PUTTER - Special Select Newport 2.5 BALL - -ProV1 RANGEFINDER - Z82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryB Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I was a tester for the V3 last year and still use it. Can't speak for the Arccos system but the subscription model is a no go for me, though I know that's not an issue for you. I've used the watch on a full charge on a Friday, left it on all weekend and played another round on Sunday afternoon. The watch was at 2% charge when I finished. Like others, I like the stats and the customer service is top notch. I do have occasions where the watch struggles to connect or find the course I'm playing, but nothing that would make me change my mind. All that being said, if you have already used Arccos a bit and are happy with it, I would probably return the V3 if I were you. cksurfdude, Paul Hedrick and tony@CIC 3 Quote Cobra Aerojet Max driver Cobra Aerojet Max 3 wood and 7 wood Cobra Aerojet 4/5/6 hybrids Cobra Aerojet 7-PW, GW Cobra Snakebite 52° and 58° wedges Cobra King Stingray 20 putter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony@CIC Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Another reason why I love SS customer service and hate ARRCOS. Last year (September 2021), it took several calls to cancel my wife's ARRCOS subscription at renewal time. They begrudgingly credited my CC account even though it was cancelled well in advance of the new subscription year. Well guess what... I just got a text notification from my CC company that they put through a charge of $155. today for next years subscription. WTH . Now I'll probably have to spend an hour on the phone Monday to straighten this out. I was going to tell them to get their act together but then decided otherwise since the more they F$%# up like this the more popular SS will become. cksurfdude, Paul Hedrick and MattF 3 Quote Left Hand orientation SIM 2 D Max with Fujikura Air Speeder Shaft Cobra Radspeed 3W/RIptide Shaft 410 Hybrids 22*, 26* Cobra Speed Zone 6-GP/Recoil ESX 460 F3 Shafts SM7 54* Wedge Glide 3.0 60* Wedge O Works putter V3 NX9-HD - 4 Wheel EZGO TXT 48v cart - too many shoes to list and so many to buy And BAG Boy Golf Balls: Vice Pro Plus 2020 Official Tester Beginning Driver Speed - 78 2019 Official Tester 410 Driver 2018 Official Tester C300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Hedrick Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 I have had my V3 since July and this past Sunday I experienced a problem I did not cause. Just the week before I played and used my V3 successfully. When I started the V3 and tried start a game, I received a message indicating no courses were found within 1KM. I tried all the usual things; power cycling the V3, logging out of the app on my iphone, restarting it and attaching to the V3 for any update, and using bad language; nothing worked. Yesterday evening I emailed customer support and explained the situation. Today I received the following: 'I have now re-mapped the course for you, could you please manually log out the app and back in (closing the app doesn't log you out), there should then be a course update available for download. Press the sync button and this will start the download. If there is no update showing please unsubscribe to that course and re-subscribe to see the update.' This seems to have worked, but I have to admit I was more than a little annoyed this happened. As far as I know nothing had changed since the previous week when I used it successfully, and yesterday when I could not make it work. I mean, how will I know from day to day whether or not this might happen again when I want to start a round?

Was explained by customer support that the course really isn't on the device even though it says it is. Since you can't manually sync a course CS has to update the course so it indicates a change was made. There is no way to know that it will happen until you try and load the course.

Geeeeesh Well, with my V2 having gotten soaked in an unexpected downpour last week, and now showing moisture inside and acting a bit squirrely when plugged in, I'm looking at either the V3 or G3. I came to this thread for some thoughts on which one to get and see @Paul Hedrick's post and wonder whether Garmin (other mfg.) is the better route? The V2 has performed really well. I stopped using the RFID tags soon after acquiring it and have no need for them moving forward. I've used it in the "GPS Only" mode since and it seems to always be very close to what most other players scopes read for yardage. I simply want an accurate, reliable, watch style distance device that includes hazards. From what I've read on the SS website, the G3 looks like it provides everything but RFID and shot analytics. I can get one for $119 from several sources. If I'm missing something here and should really consider the V3 (or another make/model), please lay some knowledge on me .

Rec3ntly got a new ban$ and suddenly all my probs with club communication disappeared. As for Arccos, I bought a new Apple Watch (Series 3) to handle Arccos.

I agree with Matt, if all you're using it for is FMB distance you don't need to spend the extra $100 for the V3. Now having said that most of us on this forum are regularly upgrading equipment some of which has adjustable settings. Having a V3 you could see the performance distance with the new equipment. I have a new driver this year along with a new 3 wood and wedge. Intuitively, I knew I was getting better distance with those clubs.

Hard to do distance into a dogleg since it could be a very wide area depending on hole shape and tree arrangement. There is a hole one of the courses I play that probably has 100 yards between the far right if the fairway and the far left. Need a rangefinder or a watch with the hole layout that has touchscreen and the ability to mark a spot. This is why I said if you don’t want shottracking I’d go with a higher end GPS watch with more features. cksurfdude 1 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: XCG7 Beta 15* w/Fujikura Fuel Hybrids: 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54/12D, 60/8M w/Accra iWedge 90 Graphite Putter: Sacks Parente MC 3 Stripe Backup Putters: Milled Collection RSX 2, mFGP2, Futura 5W, TM-180 Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've received email offers from SS a couple of times since getting/registering the V2 for discounts on upgrades to the V3... but had no compelling reason to spend the money. In fact, I just recently dumped the latest email from them. I would send SS support an email with the specifics. I don't know how often they check comments on the support site but I'll bet you get a response to your email within 24-48 hrs.

Paul Hedrick Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 It happened again this past Sunday; I got the error message that no course within 1KM. The same thing happened the previous Sunday, at a different course. I emailed them and the said the remapped the course and that I should log out of the app on my phone, log in and update...which I did. It seemed to work. Well it happened again last Sunday at another course I play frequently. I was pretty pissed off when I emailed them again. It seems this is a 'known issue' and are sending me a new V3 cksurfdude, MattF and tony@CIC 1 2 Quote Bag C130, 14 way Cart Bag Driver TSR1 Fairway GBB Epic 5 Hybrid Epic Flash 4H Iron 2 iron Irons Launcher HB, 4 through PW Wedges CBX2, 54 & 60 degree Putter Seemore Si1 Putter Ball Titleist pro v1x Other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I check the courses on a regular basis to make sure I've got the latest updates.

HAC Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 I bought a Shotscope V3 and would never buy anything from them again. The batteries do not last. For the first V3 I had, the battery lasted less than a year. Shotscope replaced it and with the new one it lasted about 2 months. Piece of junk IMHO. cksurfdude and fozcycle 2 Quote Sim 2 Driver Fujikura Ventus Blue 6R shaft Sim 2 5 wood Fujikura Ventus Blue 5R shaft 0311 Gen 5 Seven Wood Project X Cypher 50 5.5 shaft.

I've had my V3 since the release date and the battery is fine.

JerBooth Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 As a Shot Scope user and having been lucky enough to be chosen as a tester for Shot Scope here at MGS. I can say with certainty, I love it. The interface is really nicely setup for either use on a computer or your phone. The ability to use the watch without any thought of what's ahead (water, bunker, etc.) is really settling. Golf is hard enough sometimes. The GPS is really very good for shot dispersion and shot location. I've seen the ARCCOS stuff and yes the analytics are a little better but for the initial cost of a watch or new rangefinder that tracks your golf, it just seems so much better. And no monthly or yearly fees to use Shot Scope. tony@CIC, MattF, TR1PTIK and 2 others 5 Quote Driver - Mavrik w/ Aldila Rogue White 130MSI 60X 3-Wood - RocketBallz 3 HL Hybrid - Apex 2 w/ Kuro Kage 65g Stiff Irons - Steelhead XR's w/ KBS Tour-V 90 - 5-PW, AW - Stiff Wedges - Kirkland Signature 52*, 56*, 60* Putter - Spider S #1 Platinum/White Grips - Golf Pride Tour Velvet Midsize Ball - Srixon Z-star.....Q-Star in Spring and Fall Jeremy Booth Swing easy.
