[@stevemobley9741]

Thank you for the review. I have used the Square for over a month now. The spin axis is inconsistent and overrepresenting true spin. I am by far not the only one saying this. Irons are good but longer clubs not so much. I have documented several instances of this happening. Also if you watch some of the other people doing reviews comparing Square with other LM watch the side spin numbers and you will see Square being a lot higher on a percentage of shots....

[@videosavant100]

Yes please speak with them about not panning the view down to the ball and then back up to the hole. Would be better if it was just like the driving range. Thank you!!

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Agreed! I have already brought it up and these comments will help push the subject. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Just confirmed this will be addressed in an update soon :)

[@jhardy33]

Great video Jay. I have a Garmin R10 that I'm satisfied with but really considering purchasing the Square LM.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Yeah, I was just telling someone R10 is still a great value, especially for those wanting outdoor use as its radar ball tracking works well. This unit is indoors or outside if you are on a mat in shade no sun.

[@mickeyfarren3803]

Please keep them coming, this Square looks so good and regular updates

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Thanks for watching

[@mjmurphy53711608]

Getting this good of an experience without a PC running off an iPhone or iPad is fantastic.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Yeah I’m hearing from more and more people they just plan to use iPad and ranges then maybe a round a week. That’s only $25 a year to do that. Makes total sense after hearing from them their plans.

[@bobwest7599]

Nice review. I wish I could swing a golf club like that! Are you giving lessons 😂

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I am not coach and trust me I have my fair share of bad shots you can find in the channel :) It's a grind even for the pro's. As many know it is not a game of perfect! Thanks for watching!

[@joewinkler9198]

I think for the price it’s unbeatable. I’d like to be able to click the mini map for cover distances and to aim, but it’s pretty good. I also don’t like the look down if there isn’t a ball. A hole flyover would be nice too, though I don’t get that in real life! Good tip on the stimp because I thought I was just Hercules with the putter.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Yeah I think those are nice features hopefully that can get added. Thanks for watching

[@grey_fox7]

So much potential with this unit. I hope they address the issues noted here and elsewhere about inconsistent spin axis readings and underrepresenting side spin.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I find the spin axis consistent just sometimes lacking on enough. Distances seem pretty solid. For the price of the unit most are finding it a good value and acceptable tolerance already and I think it can be improved still too. More firmware coming soon it sounds like

[@anthonyc5660]

@@GolfSimulatorVideos If you find it is a little forgiving on side spin, check that you are in "professional mode" each time you log in because someone mentioned it defaults back to "amateur" when starting the LM up again. Just might be worth checking?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

@ I am in professional in all videos

[@kylejasina2305]

Great video! For lefty and righty playing a round together, would this be as simple as just marking a location and moving the monitor accordingly?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Yes, I know a few users that are already doing that. You can simply put tape on the ground and just place a square to your alignment. Believe it or not it’s not that hard people I’ve been doing that with side units for years.

[@kylejasina2305]

@ awesome thanks so much!

[@FunnyMan-xw4eh]

Awesome review, and thanks for the code. Ordered mine today!

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Nice 👍

[@stevemobley4320]

Thanks for the review. I have had the square for over a month. The spin axis is inconsistent. Spin axis is high on longer clubs and good with short irons.

[@tomgee632]

I noticed the Course Play putting speeds seems faster than the Putting Practice speed at the same stimp value. I also use stimp set at 8 on course play.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Good to know it’s not just me :) Like I said no big deal it’s just a number as long as you know what it feels like. Thanks for watching.

[@EPTRotorsports]

I use the square on my android Z fold and the android DEX system allows you to use your phone as a mouse pad. Very very enjoyable experience.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Nice! Yeah sounds like a lot of people are mobile using the native software. It’s a nice low cost option for sure!

[@paulwatson8823]

Hi, thanks for the review. Do you know if the screen can be offset on the native software and on gspro as I hit from the right hand side of my mat due to my room restrictions. I’m currently using an r10 with e6 and this allows me to offset.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Yes GSPRO has full settings for offset etc. Thanks for watching

[@paulwatson8823]

@ thanks buddy, what about the square software ?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

@@paulwatson8823 I showed all of the settings in my first video, it has aspect ratio but I do not think offset anywhere.

[@CW_GOLF_]

Hey matey, I’m glad you mentioned the green stimp speed as I played yesterday on 10 and it felt like putting on ice. I knocked it down to 9 and it was better. However watching you on 8 , I’m thinking that is the gold standard. Gotta say I’m loving the SQ, compared to the Commadore 64 graphics MLM2 this is wicked. Yes I have 3 LMs with the R10 too. With a little tweaking and hopefully Awesome Golf coming to the SQ , this is game set and match for the under 1k LM space. Watching from Australia!

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Yeah I don’t mind what the number is as long as it’s rolling to the speed I can expect. Thanks for watching!

[@BrianScott1980]

Mines is due to arrive in next week. Planning on running GS Pro but great to see the native course play soctware is actually pretty decent. What did you use during this video for the course play hardware?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I was using my PC here. Thanks for watching.

[@BrianScott1980]

@@GolfSimulatorVideos it wouldn't great video for everyone considering the square if you could compare the pc Vs iPhone Vs android.

[@BrianScott1980]

@@GolfSimulatorVideos and what spec of pc are you running please?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

@ way overboard. i9 latest gen with RTX 4090 and 128Gb ram. It’s a beast for 4K recording etc. No reason to get anything even remotely close to this specification for this software. Even Gspro 4K doesn’t need that.

[@PinHigh75]

Can you use the remote to move your aim?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I think you can, I have never tried since so easy to use my touchscreen, but I will double check it works that way. The remote is nice for a lot of features.

[@patrickcrabtree883]

What tees are you using on your mat?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

It’s called SR Golf. golfsr.ca/en

[@zacharymilos392]

Appreciate this video!! I can't afford a PC and gsPro right now and I'm placing to use native software. Mine should come in next week! 🎉

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

You’re welcome. Popular request so I’m glad to hear people are enjoying it.

[@OMG-2]

@GolfSimulatorVideos Do they have an option to watch the flight of the ball from the players point of view - I hate the magic carpet ride you get with following the ball, and the look at the ball placement, odd that it does not seem to do the look at the ball placement on every shot unless you cit them out to keep us from getting dizzy

[@rayyou7032]

Question,how many courses can you play on their software or what software does it use?

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

There is a decent list right now and many more show coming soon. They just released 2 more so I can imagine based on what I see a few dozen very soon. There are 12 right now.

[@mariovaldes1370]

How you get the camera ball flight from the top ?

[@OMG-2]

The ball look seems to be a timing issue, I think they make the assumption you have one down but in the wrong spot, just a guess but it would explain why it shows up sometime and not others

[@michaelbade]

Have you thought about how fast your carpet is? Or doesnt it matter? Maybe it's a calculation not following the ball? If

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

My turf rolls shy of 11 and this measures it within about 6” so really has nothing to do with my turf. I have basically every launch monitor and software in the market. These greens are just faster than most at 10 no big deal it’s just that 8 feels more like 10. Many others have agreed

[@brodyroby2161]

wish this was out before i bought my Garmin about a year ago

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I still think Garmin R10 is a pretty good value, especially for the users taking them outdoors to utilize the radar on the range. This unit is for indoors or if outside on a mat in a shaded area into a net etc.

[@joegarcia185]

Just wondering, are they in stock or in back order? Has anyone recently placed an order and received a shipping notification?

[@CrunchCohn]

Ordered mine Monday but haven’t heard anything on shipping yet. Definitely eager to get it and I think it will be a great first launch monitor.

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

I was told stock is just starting to arrive and should have no delays in January moving forward.

[@michaelbade]

I ordered last night they said sometime in January

[@36mangles]

I just bought one but unable to connect with the Asian Server, still waiting to play any rounds, this could be a big problem for Australian buyers

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Interesting! First, I’ve heard of this. I’ll have to ask if that’s a known issue.

[@anthonyc5660]

I just bought one also from Bayside Golf in AU. No issue at all with connection. Did you buy yours from AU or source it from overseas?

[@36mangles]

@@anthonyc5660 No bought from Bayside Golf, just can't figure out why its not getting a response from the server as that is an adjustment that is not changeable

[@36mangles]

@@anthonyc5660 Anthony, just loaded the Square Software on my Samsung phone and ran it from that and the golf courses loaded perfectly, so it is got to be my laptop windows software which is the problem, will keep looking thanks

[@topgunbass]

The up and down graphic has to go. It looked like you had an enjoyable experience playing. No missed shots or disconnects. Flight of ball from you talking seems accurate. What's not to like about it. Thanks for the video

[@GolfSimulatorVideos]

Yeah I’m pushing for it to at least be an option to turn off. Thanks for watching!
