United StatesGarmin R10 = Entry Level
I’ve only had the Garmin R10 in use for a week. Overall it works and is lower priced than most competitors, but it comes with some performance inconsistencies and limitations on game modes. I’d say when playing for every hour of use, you have to readjust the devise because it stops calculating and there is no putting available in game play with this monitor. I purchased off of a few friends recommendations, but had a done more research I would have spent more for a better launch monitor.

United StatesGarmin Approach R10 Launch Monitor
It's cold outside and a little chilly in the garage but I'm still hitting golf balls. It is plus /minus 5 yards on my average hits with any club. Hit 400-500 balls and it's great to stay in the groove this winter.
