[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Great to hear, Neal. Thanks for sharing!

[@mikepelli5988]

Great knowledge again. 2 things that pushed me towards the Mevo + were 1) delivery time was 1/2 of the Skytrak (6 weeks vs. 12 weeks) and I am left handed and others that I will want to invite to play with are right handed. I didn't want to go through the hassle of switching the unit from side to side.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Thanks foe watching, Mike!

[@markevans1476]

I got my skytrak in about 6 1/2 weeks when I was told it would be 12 weeks and this was just a couple months ago. So if anyone is concerned about delivery time as a significant issue don’t steer away from skytrak just for that reason.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

@@markevans1476 I agree everyone is trying to not to overpromise which is smart but my partner has been delivering both units fast and sometimes even has stock depending on location.

[@robertmiskovich]

LOVE your channel man! I’m so pumped to get my Mevo+ now because of you! I just wanted to let you know that I only have a 15ft space run in my soon to be sim room. I was worried about that with the Mevo+ and contacted flightscope (they answer FAST!) I asked them if I could create a pocket to set the Mevo in because I was worried that the 15ft space wouldn’t be enough, thinking about kicking the bottom part of the wall out 3 feet to give me 8ft to ball + 10ft to screen because I’m worried about higher ball speeds off driver not reading accurately. They assured me that they have solved that problem and 16 total feet is ALL that is needed for any ball speed to read accurately. Wanted to update you there in case you didn’t know that. So for my sim they said I could creat the pocket 12-16” to set the Mevo in and it would work great.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I appreciate you sharing your conversation but I am sharing feedback from current customers and situations. Environments can definitely be unique so I guess it really just depends.

Very informative video! I'm looking at my first simulator and you answeredd many of my questions. I see Flightscope just announced the Mevo+ Pro package that adds a lot more data (horizontal and vertical swing plane, face to path and target and more) for a one time $1K purchase. Would love to see a video on what you think about the Pro package.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Appreciate you watching! I'll see what I can do

[@johnkraus5454]

I certainly like the mevo+ as far as a launch monitor not so much for simulation. Radar based units seems to always struggle with short shots & putting. I believe Full Swing golf is also coming out with a launch monitor in a few months. Supposedly it has radar & camera so maybe the best of both worlds. Whatever it is I'm sure you will give us a thorough review!

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I am talking to them about it already 👍

[@benoitguitard2887]

Very fair review. Maybe i could add that if you want to test balls to find the one that suits you the best, a radar based device recording a full flight on the course is necessary . because the drag is invisible to the camera or to the radar. The magnus effect formula used by the simulator uses only the spin and the speed of the ball at launch and assumes that all the balls flight the same way. At least with the mevo+ you can record the flight itself.

Great summary Jay - might be worth mentioning that even with E6 additional courses, you have to go through Skytrak - which at this time do not allow you to purchase Pebble Beach etc...

I also believe that software purchased from Skytrack are subject to skytrack allowing you to transfer software if you change launch monitors.

Good comparison. Very fair and helpful

[@JDMDNP]

I've owned both and actually compared them together and the carry/overall distances were almost identical (I don't really track the other data). Due to this, I ended up keeping the Mevo + due to what's offered out of the box for playability.

My friend and I both own SkyTrak. Overall very happy but we have both found that SkyTrak struggles with reading full 60-degree wedge shots. Something I thought worth mentioning, especially if you are planning on playing “serious” sim rounds.

[@22RTLE]

I have 2 friends that are left handed that I wanted to be able to play rounds of golf with me. That knocked Skytrac out of consideration. I couldn’t be any happier with my Mevo +. If you have the room, I believe Mevo+ is by far the best choice.

[@troy.bert23]

I understand that 16 feet is minimum required area. But do you see a decrease in accuracy if you're hitting with those room dimensions? (8 ft to screen, 8 ft unit to ball)..

[@22RTLE]

No. The 16 feet is “ideal”. The producer of this actual video that I posted to has his Mevo + 7 ft behind his ball hitting position. Since his seems to work without issue I would say 15 ft in total would be minimal distance needed only because that’s the shortest distance I’ve actually seen where everything works. I use 8 ft behind the ball and 10 ft to my screen just because I have plenty of room.

[@sigma1432]

[@treyhendersoniii3625]

Hoping to pick up a mevo+ in the next year. Your channel provides the best info in my opinion. I like that it works so well outdoors, which is how I plan to use it most. Indoor simulation I will add into my next house.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I appreciate those kind words, Trey! I have done an outdoor video and will try to more soon (It is winter here) Email me when you are ready to purchase :)

[@TD22057]

One big thing for me is that I believe Mevo+ directly reads club head speed vs SkyTrack computing it based on ball speed. So for someone working on club head speed drills, I think Mevo+ has a big advantage - especially as doing speed drills usually means sub-optimal strikes at the start which SkyTrack will translate to lower club head speeds. I don't own either (yet) so let me know if that's incorrect.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

That is a solid point you make, Ted! It was so tough to cover every detail so I am glad you are sharing that. It provides the data but doing so with calculation vs measuring. I have done comparisons and the club speed seems pretty solid on SkyTrak but will do some more videos with other units like eye xo etc. soon! I do not know where Mevo+ is reading the club, pr or post impact so tough to say, sounds like a good video, fat shot testing!! :) Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@stevevinck4452]

that is true but ball speed is king ! Meaning that a correct struck ball will have higher speed . If you swing the club faster but miss the sweet spot of the club the ball speed will tell you that. In todays training session the ball speed of 3 well struck I7 were on avg 5 km/h higher (177 km/h) than 2 other shots (one 3.7°L only 161 km/h; one 1.7°R 172)

[@TD22057]

@@stevevinck4452 Obviously. But if I'm doing drills to increase club head speed, I want to directly measure that. I don't care how I'm striking it at the beginning - I care if the training is working to increase speed. Converting that into a good strike comes after that.

[@brianmoss9399]

I’ve had my Mevo+ for about 5 months. Overall, it’s okay. Outdoors, it’s a beast. Misses do occur but not enough for it to be a major issue. Out of 20 shots, 1 or two will be weird. The unit will tell you it carried 105 yds but in actuality it traveled only 50. Indoors? The unit doesn’t fare as well, at least in my experience. I have plenty of distance behind and in front for flight, but I’m sure other factors like the lighting (LED) and other things interfere with the radar. Out of 20 shots, I may get 3 to actually read. And because of that, I don’t trust the yardages. As stated, environmental factors are key. So I will be purchasing a SkyTrax specifically for my indoor setup and leaving the Mevo+ for the range. Good review.

This was so helpful. Thank you! One question I can’t seem to find info for - you talk about “dirty environments” for Mevo+. I’m looking to build my simulator in a metal pole barn. Would the screen and some felt side curtains, etc clean the environment up enough? Or does the radar penetrate those materials enough that the metal walls likely still present an issue?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I know a lot of people who said it has been working fine for them they just did not put the screen up close to the metal or sides.

[@M2HK2010]

My home isn’t optimal for an at home simulator setup (no spare room, garage, or outdoor space). However, my local course and grass driving range has remained open throughout the pandemic and will likely continue to. That said, I’d ideally like to be able to use a launch monitor with simulator software that is compatible with iOS so I can both see data on my phone as well as simulate course play from the driving range. Which unit and software would be best to accomplish this?

Say when you want to find out ur carry’s, it should be done with no Wind and some amount of temperature etc. Else the Reading will be un relieable??? Or like of the skill app, hot a 50 yd shot, u Got Wind into ur face on the driving range, u might not hit 50yd like u did Yesterday cos the outside conditions will impact the Reading? 2: is there settings to invironment like Wind etc, bagmapping?

[@nickhulsing9764]

Ok. I have a room setup that can go from 8ft to 10ft ball to screen. From ball to back wall is 9ft. I know that Mevo+ had an update since this video, and perhaps SkyTrak did as well. I am not interested in taking one to the outdoor range, I just want one indoors that provides the most accurate data possible with my limited space, and captures the majority of my shots and putts. As of today's versions - and my environment - which would you recommend?

[@andrewtrentadue]

I’ll be setting my simulator up in one half of my double garage. I’m only working with 10’ of width which means righties and lefties are going to have to swing left/right of center so we won’t be directly aligned with the unit. Is that problematic with either unit? Which is better?

[@thibaultcourtois8701]

Really nice review, the environment part confirm my choice of the Skytrack as I don't have the required space for the Mevo + , I have a question about the $100 yearly fee for the skytrack, is it to enable E6 or other software ? the range functionality is available without fee ?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

So you can get the basic range with SkyTrak without the $100 year. That add on gets you more features in the SkyTrak software like Bag Mapping etc. then also enables the ability to work with various 3rd party software like e6, TGC, etc. Shoot me an email and I can get you more details.

And then another question, does the software that we can get with these units include full golf courses where you can play online against people or play against each other live at the simulator?

[@yun-chaoyu8976]

it is very helpful to see this video. I am wondering if both devices support sponge golf balls?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Both devices are reading the actual characteristics of the ball including speed and spin. So even though they will both read them it won't be as accurate as a real golf ball especially at faster speeds

Hey I was just wondering what material do u use for the roofing of ur simulator and do u have any tips to put it up

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I have baffles that are looped. It’s just a black canvas material. Does an excellent job of grabbing any high flop shots etc.

[@johnnorthcut8694]

So I have a net that I use only outdoors. 12 feet of space is not a problem. Which one would you recommend?

[@jonhuddleston2739]

Great video. Thanks for the information. One question does the Mevo Plus have to be sitting at ground level. My Room depth is about 15.5 feet and then I have a short concrete wall, say 2 feet and the room goes back another 7 feet. Can the Mevo plus be placed two feet above ground level?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

It needs to be level to the ball position. Check out my everything you should know video for details. kzbin.info/www/bejne/o37PcqSmoq9qsNE

[@scottdale2087]

I am considering the Mevo+ I have two places I can set this up. One is my shop which is metal and upstairs in my house and has a metal roof. Will this work in either location?

[@briantorney980]

I've owned both. I upgraded from the SkyTrak to the Mevo+. Both are good units and how you use them should determine which one you purchase. The Mevo+ provides more data, has a much better setup (7-8 ft behind golfer), includes free simulation courses and works flawlessly outdoors. SkyTrak sets up at ball position and a duffed shot can hit it. The laser ball alignment dot is barely visible outdoors. Indoors the SkyTrak does not require the ball stickers that the Mevo+ requires. IMO my upgrade from SkyTrak to Mevo+ was the best decision for my use.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I definitely agree both good units that hold solid value

[@TG-821]

I am deciding on the two now for indoor use only. Which one would you choose?

[@andrewborbas9356]

Thanks for the very informative video! Can u advise re 1' Mevo+ adding a pro pkg for ~ $1000? and 2/ how this would compare to Garmin R10? Thanks.

Mevo+ pro package is nice. It is reading the data not calculating so you are going to see a higher level of accuracy.

[@tomsee2875]

Watched your video. Was planning to buy a mevo+ as I may want to take it to the range and I liked the easy set up and versatility for switching between left and right handed golfers, but after watching your video, I am reconsidering. I am putting this in my garage. I have the space, but interference may be an issue… this is in Florida and there are a lot of devices in the garage… metal garage doors and tracks, garage door openers, electrical panel, tankless hot water heater with navilink Wi-Fi enabled device to control hot water loop. I am also planning to get a mini-split air conditioner unit in the future. Are there ways to block the interference or do you think I should just go with the Skytrak? Thanks

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I just answered your email :). Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@davidklassen3526]

I’ve used a friends sky trak And it seemed unable to read that you took a swing. Super annoying to redo shots all the time. Is the mevo better from that aspect?

[@reginamartinez5693]

How do the two units compare to short shots or even fat shots?

[@ThomassEvo]

Have the sky track for a year now. Yardage is way off on 7 iron and up. Wedges is dead on. Shot shapes seem to be very exaggerated. 50% of the time my shot doesn't register. The laser dot is very annoying as well.

[@schoksi72]

I am thinking about buying the Real Swing 300, one of those ball on a swinging / rotating arm so I can practice indoors. This device has a 1 ft adjustable arm so I can use a variety of clubs. Everytime you hit the attached ball, the arm rotates. Which device would you recommend?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Responded to your email. Thanks for watching

[@siimpletek7924]

Thanks for the video. Did I understand that the logo has to face the sky track and some metal piece for flightscope? That seems to be very cumbersome. I just want to put the ball and swing without worrying about how to setup the ball. Maybe these are not the units I'm looking for. Would you suggest something else? I am trying to setup a simulation inside of my church vacant area so I can give lesson. Also can you provide the full list of items I need? Thanks

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Yes that is correct on both. You would have to step up to a much higher price point of something like Foresight GC2 or GCQUAD. Email me for details. [e-mail]

[@gnarfle]

I just sold my SkyTrak (thanks to covid for what I paid) and bought a Mevo plus. I think SkyTrak is probably better if you want to really play a simulator with a large hitting area. I just want to hit into a net and get an idea of my shots though, basically driving range practice at home and I found the alignment issue to pretty much be a deal breaker. The big problem was that I'm hitting off a fiberbuilt practice deck which has a small hitting and standing area. Switching clubs means relocating the SkyTrak to properly mark the ball which was a real pain. With Mevo it just sits back there so I can move the ball around the hitting area with no problem. It's also reassuring to not have it sitting in front of the ball just inches away as someone terrible like myself can easily ding the SkyTrak (the protective metal cage is a must). I also like that the mevo has text to speech to read out your shots.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@nicolascrescimone]

What size net should I get to play mevo plus outside?

[@troy.bert23]

Currently own a skytrak unit and love it. The only issue is my buddies/group is pretty much 50/50 split between righties and lefties. I'm looking at getting the mevo plus but my room only meets the minimum requirements for the mevo plus (8 feet to screen, 8 feet unit to ball). Would you still recommend the Mevo plus if I can only meet the minimum 16 feet required? Thanks!

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I think the bare minimum can be tough. Just depends on faster ball speeds and if you are getting a real true 8ft of flight. I prefer 7ft unit to ball and 10ft ball flight. Just what works well for me. Thanks for watching

[@russellmagsanide]

Great video and love your content! What are your initial thoughts on comparing Skytrak vs ES Tour Pro and Mevo Plus vs the ES Tour Pro? I would love to see those videos too.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I’m no longer testing ES Tour. I found it to be too finicky for the average user and club data they claim is actually just calculated from ball data Which I find misleading because the path and face were not that accurate

[@JLagGOLF]

After the new mevo plus update right now would you by the mevo plus or the skytrak for a budget build simulator? I'm a serious golfer and am pretty sure the mevo would suit my needs more. Would just love to hear your thoughts on it.. and also more mevo plus videos would be great! Thanks

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I think it still stands the same as it has, both are a great value in their space. Mevo+ continues to be popular if you have the right space with enough room, no interference, and smooth roll for putting. SkyTrak continues to dominate the small space environment and allows putting with only a few feet of roll. Mevo+ comes with Free E6 and no annual Game Improvement plan so this adds value to most people. Keep in mind this is a lot of personal preference, including if you plan on using it outdoor and with Right and Left handed players, Mevo+ also stands apart as the clear winner in both of those areas of importance.

[@JLagGOLF]

@@GolfSimulatorVideos thanks for the reply. If the skytrak came out with an updated unit that didn't have the delay I could be more inclined to get it.. I just don't think I can live with the delay 😂. I will be using my garage so I have around 17 feet of room so just enough for the short distance mevo plus 🤞

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

@@JLagGOLF yeah delay is definitely a factor for some. Others like it as they hit into a net and have time to look over at their TV to see the full shot.

[@DartVision]

Currently have a skytrak and bought the 2019 TGC package. If I buy a flighscope, can I still use the TGC package on it? I’d hate to be out of $900. Great video! Thanks!

[@JaNkz0r]

Great videos love the channel! What are your recommended room dimensions for the Mevo+? I'm currently in the design phase for my home simulator and I want to make sure I have the optimal size room to accommodate for the ball flight.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

It really comes down to what you were comfortable with swinging a driver inside of. Industry standard that allows for a center T and right and left-handed players, Generally is 15 feet wide with a 9 to 10 foot tall ceiling end about 20 to 25 feet long

[@bennyclare7237]

I'm building a home simulator in a shed haven't heard much about the mevo+. But skytrak numbers are very close to trakman within a yard. Plus the game improvement package is meant to be quality.

[@jmtgolf2756]

If you’re indoors don’t even think about mevo+....I own both and skytrak DESTROYS mevo+ indoors

[@leegrubbs3]

How much side clearance do you think is needed to avoid interference with the mevo+? My garage is pretty big has a lot of stuff on the sides including a fridge and water heater

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

With possible interference items like that I would think 8ft plus. But it is almost impossible to say as each environment can be unique.

[@jpc2358]

Hello Jay, I was going to set up my Mevo under a car port and there are two antique gas pumps to one side. Do you think that would be enough to interfere with the mevo ? thanks for your help.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Almost impossible for anyone to really make that call as all of these objects are unique and in certain locations or distance away from the hitting area. It has been proven the cleaner the environment the better the results. Best you can do is test I just don't want to mislead you saying it is ok and it could affect the data.

[@aaronharmon1175]

Will a wireless HDMI transmitter cause issues with Mevo+?

[@tommybattle7558]

So if my room has fluorescent lighting, are you saying that the Mevo+ will not work?

[@benjaminshoenfelt9349]

How well does the SkyTrak do for higher ball speeds (180mph+ ball speed)? I will be using it exclusively indoors in a semi-dark environment and I just want to make sure it is the correct choice. Not trying to sound like a hunk but I do not want to drop $2000+ on a system that I cannot hit drivers and woods on.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I have personally not tested with ball speeds that high. Lighting does not matter it does not need excessive light. I know that some people have reported that really highball speeds can have occasional misses some people placed the ball a little behind the dot. Thanks for watching

[@pgjc756]

IF.... I chose the Mevo+. I am 99% confident that my 56 or 60 degree wedge is going to sky my hitting net. Will the Mevo+ still read the shot if I put a net for the top part? Thanks for all you do!

Yes. It’s reading the ball. Nothing to do with if it hits the screen. Thanks for watching

Go with a mophie powerstation. They are the only portable battery that dont catch fire. The cheap ones on amazon are not safe to fly with and not airline approved. Mophie batteries are legit and will charge anything safely. I use with my skytrack and its perfect!

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

@@littlejohn6694 I have had that one above for working on 2 years now and no issues at all. It is actually the one that Flightscope uses and has excellent reviews.

[@multiplylive]

Do I have to place the ball on the hitting mat EXACTLY in the same place with both units? It seems like with Mevo+ ball placement can be in the general mat hitting area whereas Skytrak you have to place the ball exactly where the laser is shining - is this accurate as at the moment this is a presumption of mine based upon different videos I’ve watched. I have a hitting mat with various tees setup in line of target path which means Mevo+ would be the better option as I would have to move the Skytrak about?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

That was a bullet point I meant to put down! So with SkyTrak the ball needs to be right on the laser dot and with Mevo+ you have a larger hitting area. You can check out the setup image from Flightscope for better reference. I appreciate you pointing that out. Thanks for watching.

[@multiplylive]

is the florescent light interference from the type of light emitted or the noise from the ballast? My over size garage has 20 florescent fixtures. Will I need to turn them off and use an alternate source or shield the light from hitting the face of the Mevo +?

I assume the ballast "hum" but I'm not 💯 certain. If you turn them off it's ok.

Is total distance for the mevo 20 feet? 8 feet ball to unit and 12 feet ball to screen? Or do you gain more by adding more flight distance indoors?

For short indoor mode, yes. If you want to to measure past 12 feet you can use indoor mode. The minimum for sure indoor recommended by OEM is a feet unit to ball and 8 feet ball to screen
