Hi Joe I've also done those short chip tests since your first video I haven't had any problems with the five six seven foot chips I don't know what the difference is But luckily I haven't had any problems Thanks for your updates and your videos

thanks for the content joe..chipping definitely improved on a previous update but has gone to pot again on subsequent updates..this should be a priority for rapsodo chipping is so important in the game of golf

I think it must record a certain amount of frames/miliseconds from when a club passes through a certain section. So when the swing speed is slower on a chip shot, it stars recording when the club enters but it takes longer for the club to make contact with the ball so it only captures a short amount at the very end.

Yeah that would make sense and explain why some people have no issues while others do. I haven't heard back from Rapsodo yet after reporting it to them. They said they were going to look into it. 🤞🤞

I haven't had many issues with short chips even as short as 4ft. You seem to have quite a long take back with a longer and slower swing than me so that might mean I get less of the swing and more ball flight read by the device. You would think they could offer settings for when the device starts to actually capture a shot as it needs to be different depending on the type of shot.

I've noticed with mine, that it seems to have an easier time reading short shots like that, when I really open the face and flop it. I wonder if it's because the club face gets out of the camera view a little more when the club os more open, and it allows the ball to get more camera time so it can be read. Just thinking out loud...

with mine, I've found that distance from unit did matter. Of course I only use my unit outside on a range, not a simulator. Maybe the sunlight lows the units cameras/radar to actually pick up the ball.

I move way up when chipping or pitching, flop shots with my rapsodo. Sometimes close enough that my club could almost hit my net…. Seems to work great. Try to just make sure the impact vision clip ends just before the ball hits the net..

Try bringing the ball to the left hand side of whats in video. Then your club entering the video is delayed. Might help?

My other LM (Earnest sports ) only reads once it "hears" the ball being hit . For chip shots you have to change the setting on it to make it more sensitive . Is this the same here that because of the speed of the strike and ball travel it cannot capture enough ball travel due to it not having enough physical memory to be able to add the extra ball flight needed after it hears the strike ? It was probably set up for 60 mph strikes and up but not for slower speed ball travel . The unit simply might not have the ability atm to hold more shot footage to allow for extra time to be added . If you have to click some thing only for chip shots you now make the unit useless for GSpro users as we no longer need the app once we connect . How would we change the settings to chip shot in GSpro ?

Do you think it might be a lightning issue? Maybe your spotlight confuses the unit.

@dannycrews5365 5 ай бұрын

There is a drastic lighting change which makes the ball disappear to the camera. The camera can’t seem to adjust contrast quickly enough.

@spang1e858 5 ай бұрын

Yeah I definitely think that capture not being long enough is suspect. To get around it, toe down chipping seems to get picked up most of the time for me

I’m gonna have to try this. I have a basic practice net so I can’t hit full swing wedges or flops.

Hey Joe, Great videos always....Quick question...how big is the hitting area for the mlm2pro....I have mine set 11 feet from ball to net and 7.5 feet from ball to unit but when I am in alignment mode the ball is in the middle of the box and the alignment line at 8.5 feet...so does that mean there are 2 feet behind the ball to use? Thanks!

@cronas12 5 ай бұрын

My guess is that the unit is set to review approx 8 seconds of ball flight from impact on full shots the club speed and ball speed is enough to get enough data on the slower chip shots 8 seconds back is showing more club than ball?

@viper56d 4 ай бұрын

I find with mine it really comes down to loft on chip shots. The same distance by increasing the loft seems to get it to work almost each time. Not sure why that would be.

I personally have trouble on target range more than courses when I play. Still have misreads after their target range update. I didn’t have problems before that update. Additionally after thinking. I feel my chipping doesn’t work with my style but if I rush a chip shot to just move on from the shot it registers. Maybe people who have quicker tempo with chipping allow for the device to pick it up

@URAZKIVANER 5 ай бұрын

I think the issue is the device is using same amount of seconds for the footage for every shot regardless it is a slow swing chip shot or a driver. They should add a parameter to the code saying if the ball speed under some certain amount capture this much of footage as seconds or start capturing from somewhere else... And it might also be a lighting issue . We would all be interested if you could try this outside even on your backyard is good ;)

@robcoombes4549 4 ай бұрын

I get that this is Rapsodo’s issue to fix, but it would be great if Awesome Golf could introduce a setting on their Sim courses that pulls you back to 50 or 60 yards from the green if you don’t hit it in reg. At least that would break the doom cycle of mis-reads or flying the ball from side to side over the green, and i’d have thought there are enough Rapsodo users to merit it.

@johnathanwetherill456 5 ай бұрын

For me and I dont know why . if i move the ball 6 inches closer to the screen it reads is almost every time when chipping .

@dennisdunn9315 5 ай бұрын

I'm curious to know what triggers the camera and radar to start. Is it take away or down swing?

@@JJ_Khailha I would be interested as well because I never have this problem anymore. And I use pro v1x with dots . I think you might be on to something with the lighting. My ball speeds are off but that’s it at the moment.

@Theemmcguigan 5 ай бұрын

You could be onto something here joe maybe there could be a select shot type that could delay the capture time to give better chipping results. I also never get a flop shot read where I open the club face and hit the roof of my hitting net with a full speed swing. Have you had any luck with flop shots?

There is a potential fix. Bluetooth extender with a usb cable extender. Can you test this please

I have seen this it's potentially worth looking into.. I don't see how the connection will make a difference to the actual shot detection but it's worth a go.

Seems every new beta breaks something else. I wish they would get this figured out especially for the people who have stood behind them from the beginning!

Anyone else having issues with flushed full swing shots not reading? It’s not all the time but it seems like more often than not if it’s doesn’t register it feels like a really solid strike.

@LeeFevGolf1977 5 ай бұрын

Great video again Joe definitely have the same problem with chipping I feel you're really onto something with the slower swing speed here hoping Rapsodo take on your feedback... How long roughly dies it take for a beta to go out to general firmware update
