The device's measurement seem right on level with my other personal launch monitor that I own. I purchased a bundle of three lessons from her for $150, which was a bargain to work with one of the best coaches in the country for three individual lessons. The coach I used charges $60 a lesson, which includes a swing analysis and a video message of what to work on. Users can go into the app's coach feature and select from a number of Golf Digest-approved coaches to research them, check out free swing tips, and read about each coach's philosophy before deciding whether to purchase lessons from them or not. One of the Rapsodo Mobile Launch Monitor's best features is its CoachConnect compatible app which allows everyday golfers access to some of the country's best teaching pros.
The downside is that this can only be done using an iPhone or iPad as there's no compatibility with Android products quite yet. The easy-to-use launch monitor sets up in 30 seconds and covers all the standard metrics you need to understand your swing like shot distance, ball speed, club speed, and shot shape (among others).īut aside from its ease of use, the Rapsodo can also record videos of each of your shots and provide you with shot-tracing lines and shot measurements.
I wouldn't normally add two items so similar to a list like this but the Rapsodo Mobile Launch Monitor is highly touted by professional golfers, and with good reason. It's a remarkable tool for the serious amateur who wants to significantly improve their game, make the cut on a team, or start competing in tournaments. It now also features an AI caddie to help you choose which club to use by analyzing all your shots. Arccos has expanded its universe to provide a Caddie Link ($129) that allows you to leave your phone in the bag (without it, you'd need to keep your phone nearby while you play for the sensor to record the data). That's where the Arccos Caddie Smart Sensors can help by giving you all that information to help you know with certainty how far you hit each club while also letting you replay each shot you took during a round.īy screwing the sensors into the butt end of your golf grips, the Arccos Caddie Smart Sensors can replay each round via its corresponding app to get a sense of how you. It's hard for golfers to truly estimate how far they hit with their clubs, and especially so when they're in the middle of an all-time round or coming off an adrenaline high of a big birdie putt. Memberships start at $30/month and can be reduced by buying longer memberships. Memberships to WHOOP grants access to your data, helping you to know how hard to train each day, when to back off, and when you might be pushing yourself too hard. Version 4.0 is smaller than previous generations and a new line of wearable garments is also available that eliminates the need to wear the bracelet at all. The band then offers up useable feedback and specific things the wearer can implement to improve the readings.
This includes skin temperature, blood oxygen levels, and sleep activity. This wearable bracelet isn't unlike a fitness band that tracks you throughout the day. Soon, the PGA Tour bought WHOOP straps for everyone. He'd felt sluggish the day before during his first round at the RBC Heritage Tournament and although he had no symptoms, took a COVID-19 test which came up positive.
The WHOOP strap made headlines in 2020 when PGA Tour veteran, Nick Watney, woke up one morning and noticed that the strap's corresponding smartphone app indicated his respiratory rate had increased overnight.
