More so marking the putts, going to pin collect then realizing he forgot to mark the first putt. Manual putting was bad for me for the first 2 rounds, then it was second nature and I almost never miss a location or putt. But those first 2 rounds were rough. tony@CIC, MattF, cksurfdude and 1 other 4 Quote WITB: Driver: SIM2 Max 12° - Accra TZ6 M4 FW Wood: Gen5 0311 7w Fujikura Motore X F3 Irons: ZX7 PW-7i, ZX5 6i-5i Wedges: Zipcore 50°, 58° Putter: MySpider X Cart: Onewheel XR+ Ball: Z-Star Diamond/ Z-Star XV 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony@CIC Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Just ordered a V3 for my wife and I'm going to download the app tonight onto her ipad. Just curious - is there any or much difference in capabilities between the app and the desktop dashboard. I just use my phone to edit since I don't have an ipad.

They both now offer strokes gained across various handicaps, though shot scope is in their app only. Arccos visuals are much better personally, but nothing to get over there. I found neither to miss many shots, and personally I wear a watch all the time anyway to that's no big deal for me. I find both still take some time to edit the putting correctly. One other small note is that I use manual putt tracking on the watch which I find a bit easier, so I have not use the putting tag so can't speak to that accuracy. cnosil, Vegan_Golfer_PNW, cksurfdude and 1 other 4 Quote Epic Max LS 9° Ventus Blue 6X (2021 Official Review) | Epic Speed 18° Evenflow Riptide 70g 6.0 816 H1 21° Diamana S+ Blue 70 S | SMS 4-5/SMS Pro 6-PW Steelfiber i95 S (2023 Official Review) Glide 4.0 50°.12°S/54°.14°W/58°.6°T PING Z-Z115 Wedge Flex | SOFT 11S Super Stroke Mid-Slim 2.0 Hoofer Bag | Pro V1 | Right Handed | Tracked by V3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her subscription is up this month and I bought her SS V3. She has also been using Golf Buddy for distances and I have more negative comments to say about that device than any other technology on the golf course - sometimes she has to reboot it 2 - 3 times before it acquires the course. So she was looking at the watch as a substitute for the Golf Buddy and additionally she doesn't like the subscription model. There were other issues for the switch besides the subscription, like having to wear the phone (the Link was always an issue even after being replaced) and missed shots, etc. Both of us use shot tracking primarily and found only minor editing required. We use the putter sensor and so far it's worked well. While stokes gained is available, we're not at a point where we are using it - that's not to say we won't in the future.

Attached is a pic of one hole played yesterday - two questions: 1. Each of the club numbers have distances in 2 columns. What I'm interested is in the second column ( one on the right). 2. I have a number of holes where the putter distance is logged as 2 feet. In this example - you can see in the pic 2 putts at 2 feet. I do have the sensor on my putter and on most putts it does show the actual distance Just catching up on this thread so don't know if these questions have already been answered........ #1. Distances, in grey, in the right column are yards remaining to the hole (in a straight line, to the center of the green). #2. All putts under 2 feet are recorded as "2 feet" (you can adjust that in editing if you prefer, but the current putting performance stats will not show you your Make% at 2 feet vs at 3 feet, for example). tony@CIC, MaxEntropy and MattF 3 Quote WITB of an "aspiring" play-ah ...

toehold57 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Well, first big problem cropped up today. Mid-round, on 13 or 14, the display stopped updating. It showed 5xx yards to go even as I was on my second and third shots. But it was registering which club I was swinging. After a couple of holes it never changed so I powered it off. Powered back on, now the display shows 999 in place of any other number. I’ve turned it off and on several times, still see the triple nine’s. I’ve opened a case with SS, fingers crossed there is a way to reset the watch. tony@CIC, MattF and cksurfdude 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cksurfdude Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 On 7/31/2021 at 3:31 PM, tony@CIC said: However, I find the GPS less accurate - not sure if that's typical of GPS devices. The way I have checked it: say the pin is in the middle at 150 and I laser it at 150. when I get to another mark - say 50 yards via laser the always be off a several yards. So for me the Laser is still an important tool in my bag. I think you have to be careful with what you think is the "middle" by sight .. plus the V3 is supposed to give you what they call dynamic yardages to F/M/B depending on _your_ position relative to the green .. eg. you're in front of a green that's long front to back and narrow side to side, vs you're off to one side of the green. But as I understand the "middle" yardage it's going to be the geographic center equidistant (as possible) to the edges of the green .. ie. a fixed coordinate on the green. Also if you have a slope adjusted laser that might account for a few yards of difference? Also, fyi, re: accuracy - in Settings there is an option to change GPS from "L1" to "L1 + L5" .. they say this *may* be more accurate (and use more battery), but - it depends on the GPS signal your watch can receive in your area.

But as I understand the "middle" yardage it's going to be the geographic center equidistant (as possible) to the edges of the green .. ie. a fixed coordinate on the green. Also if you have a slope adjusted laser that might account for a few yards of difference? Also, fyi, re: accuracy - in Settings there is an option to change GPS from "L1" to "L1 + L5" .. they say this *may* be more accurate (and use more battery), but - it depends on the GPS signal your watch can receive in your area. Interesting - I didn't realize there was a GPS accuracy setting - so I learned something new today - thx. As to slope - yes I do have slope on my Precision Pro NX9 HD. Also I use an app called ezlocator which I have on all the time in my cart which also helps. cksurfdude 1 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...

Just curious - is there any or much difference in capabilities between the app and the desktop dashboard. I just use my phone to edit since I don't have an ipad. Occasionally I do go onto the dashboard on my PC but haven't paid much attention to the differences if any. Yes they're pretty different; the desktop version has more graphs and it's all presented in a different way. Interesting, the URL contains "V2" - I'd asked support if that meant there is .. or if there is under development .. a V3 version of the dashboard. Have not heard back (I suspect it may be in development?). For editing your round - it may be me starting to get arthritic fingers but I CANNOT do it on my phone .. I always use the desktop. tony@CIC 1 Quote WITB of an "aspiring" play-ah ...

Mid-round, on 13 or 14, the display stopped updating. It showed 5xx yards to go even as I was on my second and third shots. But it was registering which club I was swinging. After a couple of holes it never changed so I powered it off. Powered back on, now the display shows 999 in place of any other number. I’ve turned it off and on several times, still see the triple nine’s. I’ve opened a case with SS, fingers crossed there is a way to reset the watch.

I wonder if the course mapping is off - eg. course was updated / re-routed - so SS would need to re-map it in their database..? Dr Strangelove 1 Quote WITB of an "aspiring" play-ah ...

tony@CIC Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 For those just starting out with SS - here's a great link on shot/hole editing. This is a desktop version, I think there's a mobile version also.

I went to manual putting a few weeks ago. After a couple of rounds having to focus on pushing the button before I walk away from the spot of the putt, it's become 2nd nature. I often had missed putts on auto so I much prefer this method. cksurfdude, ejgaudette and MattF 3 Quote Dark Speed X Driver w/ Motore X F35R shaft, ZX 5 Wood & 7 Wood w/Evenflow Riptide 5.5 shaft, Fli-Hi 24 deg Hybrid Iron, JPX919 Hot Metal 5-GW w/Project X LZ 5.5 shafts, SM9 54D & 58M deg wedges, Sabertooth White Ice, -Pro V1X (preferred) or Tour X ball, X5 Watch, Nikon Laser 500 range finder.

Ok I confess - I don't know the difference or the benefits of manual putting over auto. SS instructions only show how to change the settings from one to another but not explain the difference. FYI I do have the Putter tag installed, my watch is set on auto and I have been recording the # of putts over the hole.
