Just wanna say that I would LOVE a video that goes over how to best use the data from one of these to improve, and included in that how to figure out the data missing from the GCQuad in other ways like you mentioned. Planning to build a home sim and the extra spend is so hard to justify for the Quad.

Got mine yesterday Matt can’t wait till extensions done to use it 👌👍 look forward to your videos going forward with the gc3 👏

Ugh, Matt! Now I'm over here doing calculations in my head, trying to figure out how to work one of these into the budget! 😂 Thanks, great review sir.

Nice acquisition Matt. Feeling a tad jealous of your indoor simulator set up there; looks sweet as molasses.

I use a voice caddie, as I cannot afford those, still gives me good info. I have actually used mine for my wedges

Great video Matt. Would be interested in videos on the numbers. I was tossing between flight scope and the R10 and ended up with the R10 due to availability. From a Brit Living in China

I currently use a Swing Caddie SC300 hitting into a net. I have noticed that the SC300 gives me carry distance that seems to be less than actual playing distances. Would be interesting of you could compare this using your GC3. Thanks

It fit perfectly for your videos! Wise buy!

I have the SC300. I put it up against the GC Quad. Very very close. For shots up to 200 yards around 5 yards max difference. The SC 300 costs around $500

when you use it outside is it hard to set up to get correct club path? we just got a quad but i havent tryed it ourdoors :)

Ive been contemplating this for some time, after my mevo+ and ipad were left on roof of my jeep and ended up roadkill on I-90. Originally it was $3000, thought and thought, got some $$$ for the bday and see it already creeped up to $4000. Thats the Bushnell launch pro, same a GC3, but you have to buy annual subscriptions.

Matt, what do you use for your shot tracer when playing on course ?

An explanation of the numbers would be great Matt 👍👍

Nice video Matt! May I know which projector are you using?

Fantastic review.

I got the Bushnell Launch Pro version & LOVE it. Same exact monitor, just doesn’t come w/the Foresight golf course simulator (can buy that separately). Got mine for $2,999, which is MUCH more doable.

The problem with this is 2 fold. Its not Apple compatible and to unlock all of the features you have to spend $3,500. Which is the same price as GC3. Also GC3 has in house support. The Bushnell is a great product though.

what if I want to play those virtual courses, but i don't have a projector screen? Can i use my computer screen? Also do I have to hit a real golf ball or can I swing at a foam one indoors?

I bought the Rapsodo MLM. Which is great for me. I decided that if I ever hit the lottery I'll put a sim room in and grab the gc3. That way we can golf 12 months a year!

Can you tell me how it connects to a projector. And is it compatible with apple computers? Thx

So... can I have your GC2, Matt?! I'll pay for shipping, my friend! Lol. Super jealous of your home simulator and GC3, but I'm also extremely happy for you and I know you deserve it, Matt! It has been my dream for years to have my own golf simulator at home so I can practice throughout the winter months. My wife tells me as soon as we win the Powerball I can have one, but like I told her as soon as I'm confident about the numbers I've chosen to win it they change them again! It's almost as frustrating as golf!

Hi Matt Do you notice much difference in iron and wedge spin when hitting from the turf instead of indoors? Thanks

Matt, how had the wifi connection been working for you? I can’t keep my iPad and GC3 connected for more than two shots it seems. Makes it almost useless for taking to the range or on course etc. would love to know if you have any hot tips on connection issues…I’m ready to throw mine to the curb it’s so bad.

Hi Matt, you sounded really impressed when you did the video. Are you still just as happy with it?

How much is the data for the courses ?

While I'm am avid follower and like your videos, and I can see that as they've given you this unit you may not be the best person to ask but.....What is the advantage of this unit over the Mevo+ (except if you use it indoors with potential liimitations for the set-up)? The club path data that the Pro-Package provides in the Mevo+ seems to be a better option than this unit at half the price...

@@Mattfryergolf Yes I'm aware that they use different technology but they seem to produce the same data. I own a Mevo+ and have used it indoors and out. Like others, I find the outdoor data from the Mevo+ is very accurate when compared to other systems, including photometric systems, and it has certainly helped me in taming my in-to-out path to limit my big left misses... Unfortunatley I haven't been able to upgrade to the pro package to get club path data from the Mevo+ but with this, I can't see that the GC3 offers much more data. I do agree that the Foresight software is superior to that offered by Flightscope, but I'm not sure that alone merits paying double the price. I would love to try both to compare them, that's a great suggestion....Perhaps you could send me your GC3 to set it up against my Mevo+ and if you could foot the cost of the upgrade to the Pro package it would also be appreciated.....😆 Alternatively, bring your GC3 over to Madrid and we could do the comparison together.... and get in a round or 2....😉

Is your old one for sale?

I have searched for months, but can't find the result anywhere. Every video clip on youtube compares Bushnell Launch Pro to Trackman and GC Quard indoor, and yes, it is on par with those. The thing is nobody compares bushnell data to real ball flight. Such as, if the ball fly 3 degree to the left, does bushnell show 3 degree to the left? If ball flight has a draw, does bushness also show a draw. I had Skytrack, distance and backspin are all about correct, but the direction that skytrack shows can be off quite a bit. Would you please take Bushnell on the range outdoor and compare the data to real ball flight? If confirm good, I will buy Bushnell.

The question is, how long did you really hit the ball

Mevo+ w/ Pro Package is better for the common golfer. And more importantly.. No subscription fees! Plus when you have lefties and righties come over to play during the winter Optical is a PITA.

These monitors are crazy high

You should really have talked about us dollars prices and how to get it.

You gonna' sell that GC2 on Ebay? Let us know... ;)

I wish gc3 and GCQuad had a better display like full swing has…

Not in the realm of a normal players budget. For about 5% of the GC3 cost, you can get a Swing Caddie SC300. More in line with what the average golfer (and your fan base) needs.

Have you ever tested how accurate these things are .. ie. Hit a ball out on the course and then have someone on the fairway to capture the landing point .. recorded if the ball flight is as shown in the software .. you'd probably struggle with Apex and spin etc ... To test how accurate these are, But I'd love to know just how accurate these things are since they cost so much

What features do you want? The Garmin G80 can double as a launch monitor.

Face to path is something I believe would be really important, but yes, not worth 13K.

Hope it’s good for 7500 dollars. Even though my wife golfs I can never talk her into spending that kind of money for a “personal” launch monitor. That is full on professional money for that. The bus he’ll one might be a little bit easier to swallow price wise.

It's £8400 now

"Personal" hahahahahahaha

I find it difficult to justify paying this kind of money for a thing that has lot of its features gated behind pricy software. My closest simulator center has a price of about $45 for an hour of simulator time. I'll keep the money and spend it on lessons, balls at a toptracer range and hours in simulators.

Hey Matt it would be cool to see a comparison of different launch monitors compared to this one. For instance the mevos or sc300 or some other type like that. We as amateur golfers don’t play enough to justify that but maybe one of the less expensive ones.

$$$ 🤪

$8,999 US. Ugh

Way to expensive to be a personal launch monitor, great for clubs to buy, useless for most club golfers

Really? Reviewing a monitor that STARTS at $7500 USD? Matt, do you really think that is within the budget of the average golfer? I suppose I could go for the demo blowout on the Foresight sports site for $6K.

Imagine how many lessons from the best coaches you could have for that sort of money. You'd be a significantly better golfer spending a 10th of that money. Sorry but someone had to say it.

GC3/LaunchPro's software/App is terrible. Foresight's technical support is bad to non-existent (at least in the US), simply cannot compete with TM and Flightscope's professional services. Compare the "soft" side of these launch monitors before you shelll out thousands$ on the hardware.
