For decades, launch monitors were tools reserved exclusively for PGA Tour professionals and elite academies. Today, thanks to technological advancements and accessible pricing, every golfer can bring this once-exclusive equipment into their home.

A launch monitor captures the true essence of your swing by measuring critical data points: ball speed, launch angle, spin rate, carry distance, and total distance. These metrics provide an objective, data-driven understanding of your performance—something no “feel-based” practice session can match.

There are two primary types of launch monitors:

• Radar-based systems, which track the ball’s flight path in 3D, ideal for both indoor and outdoor practice.

• Camera-based systems, which analyze impact and ball flight in confined spaces with exceptional accuracy.

Choosing the right launch monitor depends on your goals, available space, and budget. Whether you’re a beginner looking for feedback on consistency, or an advanced player fine-tuning spin rates with your wedges, a launch monitor transforms your training into measurable progress.

With the right setup, you’re not just practicing—you’re practicing smarter.
