Rapsodo MLM

I got my Rapsodo last week, charged it up and hit the range! It worked great and was so cool to see my numbers. I’m a newer golfer and I really need to get the range of each club dialed in. The stats are incredible for the price and seem to be incredibly accurate. It appears that they are working on an upgrade that will allow this to be used indoors too and I can’t wait! The only issue I had is it’s over 100 degrees in Arizona right now so my phone got too hot and I had to stop using it with the Rapsodo device. Without the phone it won’t work...nothing We can do about Arizona heat...it is what it is!

The concept is amazing and the device seems to work perfectly, but the app crashes too often. I’ve had two practice sessions since receiving the MLM. Both times I’ve had to restart the MLM device and app multiple times because the app will crash and quit just before practice starts. Once it gets going, I can hit between 5-15 shots before the app crashes again, and I have to start over. Please fix this because it has so much promise... Two more quick observations that may help others. First, beware of hitting towards the setting or rising sun. The camera loses the ball and won’t register a shot. Second, although the camera based club selection seems like a cool feature, I’ve yet to get it to work. I’ve tried different clubs, lighting conditions, etc. to no avail. Save yourself the frustration and just select the club on the app. Better yet, enable voice command 😄

After a few sessions, getting enough swings in with each club for a good sample, I used lifetime stats view to see how far each club carried on average. Noticed a 30 yard gap between my shortest wedge and Gap. That necessitated a partial swing between 85 to 115. I knew there was a sizable gap there, but didn’t think it was near 30 yards. Retired a 5-wood I barely ever used and added a wedge that carries around 100. Feel like I’m using the extra wedge more often (and for more valuable shots) than the 5-wood it replaced. Overall club selection is easier knowing how far each carries on average. Love it.

The Rapsodo MLM has been instrumental in making the most of my practice. I’m new to golf and the ability to monitor swing speed, capture launch conditions and reviewing my swings to track my progress has been game changing. It is compact and super easy to setup and use. The app is intuitive and I love the export video feature. Who doesn’t enjoy sharing their great (and equally horrible) shots with their friends? The product also allows for some friendly competition at the range with friends (long drive, closest to the pin). Definitely get one!

I love the product. The launch monitor incorporates video so you can look back and see why or why not a shot was good. I have owned the MLM for 2 weeks and have already received an app update and firmware update. They are working really hard to keep this on the cutting edge. I love that your iPhone has all the data on it. It comes in handy if you want to you show someone your swing it stats, They are always with you. I am anxiously awaiting the ability to use this in a net. They say it’s coming very soon. Great product!
