How accurate are personal launch monitors?

Top personal monitors like the Mevo+ and Garmin R10 are within 2–3 percent of Trackman for ball speed and carry distance. Spin rate accuracy varies more widely. For practice and improvement, this level of accuracy is more than sufficient.

Do I need a simulator subscription?

Most launch monitors include a basic app for free. Simulator software like E6 Connect and TGC require separate subscriptions ranging from $10–$30 per month. Free alternatives like GSPro offer excellent value for home simulator setups.
