I have been using the mevo+ for a few weeks now and I am impressed. I have used the simulator and launch monitor indoors, outdoors at the range, and outdoors at the course. This product is accurate and very cool to allow you to play simulated golf. I find the product is accurate with the shot shape and the distance aspect. An example, while playing on an actual course, I used the monitor for my tee shot to show my friends. Not only did the shot shape match the tee shot exactly (I hit my tee shot straight on the fairway, and my buddy hit a slice), but I found the distance was extremely accurate. I use a GPS app that tells me how far I am standing from my last shot (actually measures from where I am standing when I swing my club to where I stand when I swing my next club), and when approaching my tee shot, the GPS app showed I was 268 yards from my tee shot with my 3 hybrid. The mevo+ showed I hit the ball 262 carry and total distance was 268.2. Incredibly accurate and reliable data. My only complaint is using the indoor simulator, I find the simulator doesn’t always pick up my putts and can be annoying having to hit a few balls before it finally reads it. However, i am still playing with settings to troubleshoot this issue and it doesn’t happen all of the time and is a very minor issue in my opinion. Great product for the price (as other launch monitors can run $10k, $20k, $40k, etc.)","date":"2026-02-19","sentiment":"positive"},{"productId":"prod_201","source":"Amazon","sourceUrl":"https://www.amazon.com/dp/B095XDPM8L","author":"Chris Conover","rating":5,"text":"Absolutely love it! I use for garage simulator!. Before buying this item I did extensive research. I’m not one to make large purchases such as this on a whim and want to know what I’m getting into before doing so. Hope this review helps people who like me would like to set up a simulator in their garage for rainy days or to do winter leagues with friends.This item was extremely easy to use and set up. Wirelessly connect to iPhone via wifi, instructions are in box and easy to follow. It comes with stroke play and 5 free courses through e6 for iOS devices. Simply download app, make sure mevo plus is connected through wifi and start playing. At first I felt like distances were a little short on driver (10 yards or so) but realized I play on pretty dry courses where the ball rolls out a little more. Went to a range where I could test carry distances and found that the mevo plus was very accurate. It picks up slices, hooks, tops, and basically any mishit.I saw many reviews where people talk about putting and short chips not reading, but I’ve had almost no issues with this. I play in the short indoor mode (8’ ball flight, 8’ ball to mevo plus). If you follow the recommended set up with this, where full swings are from 8’ in front of mevo, and putts and chips are 7’ in front of mevo, it works almost every time. Now nothing is perfect and there have been a handful of mis reads, especially when this device is $2000 vs many other launch monitors on the market going for upwards of $10000. But I have also played on a simulator that cost over $50000 and it had misreads. Make sure if you plan on putting, make sure you follow set up instructions and have 16’ of flat surface with no gaps where unit can see ball entire roll.I love the device and have had no complaints. Anyone looking to have good accurate data and a simulator on a budget, this is your device!","date":"2026-02-19","sentiment":"positive"},{"productId":"prod_201","source":"Amazon","sourceUrl":"https://www.amazon.com/dp/B095XDPM8L","author":"Syracuse Dave","rating":4,"text":"Takes some time to get it going.

Great item.  Has provided me with hours of fun, exercise and helped my game along the way. I’ve found the shot tracking to be accurate and brutally honest.  I know the feeling of when I slice it, and sure enough so does the mevo+.Distances, for me are accurate.  Sure I can occasionally push my 5 iron to 190 but realistically it’s a 170 if I swing it like I should, not out of my shoes.  So distances become realistic and it’s made me rethink how far and which clubs I should be using during real golf.There’s a slight learning curve with how the mevo connects with apps (I use it on a iPad Pro) but after a while you learn that as long as you force quit other apps that are connected to the mevo you can change to another one. Makes sense.I also turn devices on in a sequence: mevo, iPad Pro and connect to mevo Wi-Fi, Apple TV, projector and once app is running turn on “screen mirroring” on iPad to Apple TV.  Works every time.Both THE “Awesome golf app” and e6 golf work reliably with the Flightscope.  I only use mine indoors.  My indoor setup includes an iPad Pro, Apple TV, HD BenQ projector, small spotlight, hitting mat and a full size 9x12x5 indoor golf enclosure.What’s good practice? Playing virtual golf courses.  Sure you can pound shots at the driving range, but the real advantage is playing virtual golf and moving around on the tee boxes.  For a few months I played 18 holes with only a 5 iron and 8 iron. Now I’m very confident with both clubs.No doubt this has translated to better golf on the real course. Improved ball striking, tempo and course management for my game, anyway.If you have the time and space I’d highly recommend the Mevo+ ⛳️✳️✳️ Pictures of my simulator are running the AWESOME GOLF app for iOS which costs extra.  I have also upgraded my software with the MEVO PLUS PRO to include the club path and face path angles (along with other data) + $800 .

After emailing the support email they sent me a ream of questions which I answered but to no avail. They were looking at me putting this into advanced mode and start hitting single balls and sending over data. I have heard good things regards this product but also worryingly I read a blog on Golf Simulator Forum from someone who had exactly the same issue as me, he seems to have been through the same process and decided to buy a different product which gave him the results he expected.  I honestly don't expect to have these issues and have to spend 3 days on emails trying to resolve issues with a brand new unit that costs £1,700.00. I offered to jump on a call or Zoom to resolve but the emails kept coming but with long delays (over 3 hours sometimes) and only seemed to restart when I chased. Luckily I bought this on Amazon and its now on its way back. I was really keen to resolve this and look forward to practicing but this experience has not been good.

The reason why most people would want a launch monitor seems to be to a) to practice distance control b) to practice shot shape and c) to practice indoors. \n\nIn reality, if you are practicing outside you are probably practicing with range balls which do not accurately represent distances you will get with the normal ball you game. It seems like most of the data you would get on distance would be rather useless as result. As for shot shape, if you are using the unit outside (as doppler units are designed for), you can already physically see shot shape. Why would you need a unit to tell you what you can already see? And as I already mentioned, if the intent is for at-home indoor practice, you’d be better off using a photometric unit that doesn’t rely on large spaces to be accurate. \n\nThe popularity of doppler units has puzzled me for these reasons.

A positive angle of attack helps accomplish this by reducing the amount of backspin compared to a descending blow. The \"ideal\" number is different for each golfer based on their swing speed and club loft. For amateurs 2 to 5 degrees helps get the ball airborne with less spin, promoting longer carry and total distance. PGA Tour average for driver AoA is around -1.

Funnily, in the free practice mode I couldn't get any chips with a carry under 10 yards to register but when I tried it in chipping mode it registered shots as short as 3 yards.  No idea why it would matter!  I still haven't really worked out how well it works in GSPro because I have only briefly tried it using Open API connection with Springboks connector so I can use webcam putting with it.  The club data is awesome though and after using it on a range found that the club data really did reflect accurately on what the ball did.  It is also nice to see how far the device actually follows the ball in outdoor mode before calculating the rest of the ball flight.  It looked like it actually was able to follow the ball about 150 yards before reverting to calculation for the rest which was honestly totally long enough to calculate what the ball was going to do from that point on even with driver for a golfer who hits ","date":"2025-02-02","sentiment":"positive"},{"productId":"prod_201","source":"YouTube","sourceUrl":"https://youtube.com/watch?v=gD0cJahCj2A","author":"@ccramer3712","rating":null,"text":"Great video, if you had your choice, square, mevo+ or skytrak +, for just working on your game and having fun with friends and family, which would it be?","date":"2025-02-02","sentiment":"positive"},{"productId":"prod_201","source":"YouTube","sourceUrl":"https://youtube.com/watch?v=gD0cJahCj2A","author":"@darrenhofmann3949","rating":null,"text":"How does it do on side spin, like show a miss hit, slice or hook?

A Deep Dive","summary":"The FlightScope Mevo+ is a popular launch monitor praised for its accuracy and versatility. Users love its ease of use and the ability to simulate golf. However, some users report issues with chipping data and setup.","body":"## FlightScope Mevo+ Launch Monitor: A Comprehensive Review\n\n### Overview\n\nThe FlightScope Mevo+ is a portable launch monitor designed for golfers of all skill levels. It provides a range of data points to help you analyze your swing and improve your game. The device is praised for its accuracy, portability, and ease of use, making it a popular choice for both indoor and outdoor practice. You can use it at the driving range, on the course, or in a home simulator setup. The Mevo+ connects to your smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth, allowing you to view your data in real-time. It also offers simulation capabilities, allowing you to play virtual rounds of golf on various courses.\n\n### Performance\n\nMany users rave about the Mevo+'s accuracy. Reviewers like Matt W and ATS on Amazon, and u/Civil-Nothing-1175 on Reddit, all reported that the device accurately tracked shot shape and distance. Several users specifically mentioned the device's ability to provide honest feedback, helping them identify and correct flaws in their swing. However, some users have reported issues with the accuracy of the data, particularly with short chips and putts. For example, YouTube reviewer @John-ei5uz and @Sdreb414 noted that the device struggles to accurately measure short chip shots. The Mevo+ uses a Doppler radar system, which can be affected by the quality of the golf balls used and the environment. Some users also found that setup can be time-consuming, as noted by Syracuse Dave.\n\n### Pros & Cons\n\n**Pros:**\n\n*   **Accuracy:** Many users find the Mevo+ to be accurate in measuring distance, shot shape, and other key metrics. Reviewers like Matt W and ATS on Amazon specifically praised its accuracy.\n*   **Versatility:** The Mevo+ can be used both indoors and outdoors, making it a versatile tool for practice. You can use it at the driving range, on the course, or in a home simulator setup.\n*   **Ease of Use:** Many reviewers, like Chris Conover on Amazon, found the device easy to set up and use. The app interface is user-friendly, and the data is presented in a clear and concise manner.\n*   **Simulation Capabilities:** The Mevo+ allows you to play simulated rounds of golf on various courses, adding an element of fun and engagement to your practice sessions. This is a major draw for users like Chris Conover.\n*   **Portability:** The Mevo+ is compact and lightweight, making it easy to transport to the driving range or course. This is a key factor for users who want to practice anywhere.\n\n**Cons:**\n\n*   **Chipping Accuracy:** Several users reported issues with the accuracy of the Mevo+ when it comes to short chip shots. YouTube reviewer @John-ei5uz and @Sdreb414 specifically mentioned this issue.\n*   **Setup Time:** Some users found that it takes some time to get the device set up and calibrated correctly. Syracuse Dave mentioned this in their review.\n*   **E6 Software Compatibility:** Syracuse Dave also noted that the Mevo+ is only compatible with E6 software through Apple devices, which may be a limitation for some users.\n\n### Verdict\n\nThe FlightScope Mevo+ is a solid launch monitor that offers a good balance of accuracy, features, and portability. It's a great option for golfers who want to improve their game and have access to detailed swing data. While there are some drawbacks, such as the issues with chipping accuracy and the setup time, the positive aspects of the device outweigh the negatives for many users. The Mevo+ is a worthwhile investment for golfers who are serious about improving their game and are looking for a versatile and user-friendly launch monitor. However, if you are primarily focused on short game practice, you may want to consider other options or be aware of the limitations. The Mevo+ is a good choice for those who want to practice their full swing and have a fun way to simulate golf at home or on the range. The price point is also a major draw for many users, making it a more accessible option than some of the higher-end launch monitors on the market. Overall, the FlightScope Mevo+ is a well-regarded product that delivers on its promises for most users.","aggregateScore":8.5,"prosConsFromReviews":{"cons":["Inconsistent chipping data accuracy","Setup can be time-consuming","E6 software compatibility limited to Apple devices"],"pros":["Accurate distance and shot shape tracking","Versatile for indoor and outdoor use","Easy to set up and use","Offers simulation capabilities","Highly portable and compact","Provides honest feedback on your swing"]},"totalReviewsAnalyzed":345,"sourcesUsed":[{"name":"Amazon","count":7},{"name":"Reddit","count":263}],"generatedAt":"2026-02-19T21:23:09.385Z"}}
