Great article. Likely going to be picking one of these up based on feedback.
Shot Scope LM1 Launch Monitor – Portable Ball & Club Speed Training Device
I do have this same concern. Especially if I am going to want to be practicing this into a net.

This definitely has my full attention. Sounds like it would be the perfect low-cost addition to the mat and net setup I have at home.
Oh I agree this is a very interesting unit especially if it integrates with Shot Scope app and works with speed training aids.
And for $200 it’s a no brainer!
This is a great addition to the bag if you’re already a Shot Scope user. Being able to get some real time basic data on the range or even on course will be helpful to compare with the data you’re getting through the tags after a round.
Great price n this. Very interesting
Feels like this is very much a competitor to the PRGR portable launch monitors but with the added benefit of the Shot Scope app. That’s a pretty intriguing position in the market in my opinion.
It would be neat to compare via testing both units.
I see what you did there.
Great entry level device, clean look, had a nicer form factor than the PRGR. Will be great for a lot of people, no doubt.
At about 0:20 in the video in @Hawk's article, it shows a screen that says "Speed Training". We don't know any more yet, but maybe there's hope for those who are looking for that capability?
That's the big part I want to see. At the price point, I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't integrate with anything now...but I'm hopeful that ShotScope has left the door open to updates that do integrate at least their products. I know integration with things like The Stack might take a little longer, simply because you need them in on the process too.
This might be one of those things where you save yourself a lot of money by getting in on the ground floor at the current price...because if they do have the ability to update it to add features, the price will probably go up.
That may be the case but since it’s Shot Scope I doubt they raise the price or go to any sort of subscription model. Any other company, well they’d milk that cow dry with subscriptions.
This would be really nice to dial in distances. Seem super easy to carry around and place. I didn't see it talk a ton about accuracy in the article. Have you seen any accuracy issues from 100 yards and in for distances with wedges?
Don't think anyone has one to test accuracy as of yet.
Definitely no subscriptions...that's a big part selling point for them - but I can see the price go up at point-of-sale with updated capabilities.
If it’s as accurate as Shot Scope always is then I would be more than ok with a price increase here!

I mentioned this in another thread, but I almost kept scrolling when I saw the price...then I saw Shot Scope and it made me think this could be different. They have a reputation which makes me think this could be really good.
I would say, little steps for them first to see the sells numbers then maybe they will innovate and add more capabilities
Oh the name makes this product an instant contender if you’re in the market.
The price makes it a no brainer
I 100% agree - this is the first step and then see if there is a position to make LM2 the simulator for garage
so quick ask - why would you take this out on course? seems like it tells you carry and total distance with smash factor. ...
Very good point!
I sooo hope this is just the 1st of many Shot Scope launch monitors
So you could get numbers with the actual balls you play? Unless you're into sacrificing your gamers at the range, it would be the best option for outdoors if you want numbers from your gamers rather than range balls.
