Garmin has announced the all-new Approach® R50 premium launch monitor and golf simulator, allowing golfers the luxury of teeing it up 365 days a year on their home setup or at any driving range.
The Approach R50 features a 10” built-in, colour touchscreen display and more than 43,000 preloaded golf courses worldwide with an improved version of Home Tee Hero.
Using three different cameras, the launch monitor can track more than 15 ball and club metrics, including measured spin rate and spin axis.
It can also provide precision analytics for every club – from driver to putter – and deliver high-speed impact videos so players can review a close-up look at their contact for each shot.
Dan Bartel, Garmin Vice President of Global Consumer Sales said: “Leveraging our most advanced technology with an elaborate three-camera system, our Approach R50 can provide golfers of all levels with the cutting-edge metrics and analytics they need to help improve their game.
“Whether you want to see specific shot metrics, see how and where the ball comes off your club, or just want to play a round on a rainy day, we’ve got your game.”
