Voice Caddie Sc300I Portable Golf Launch Monitor (2021)

Product Information

I’m also not going to lie, I’m a little confused as to which products are marketed as “Swing Caddie” and which products are “Voice Caddie.” I also found the spin rate to be pretty accurate. Spin definitely calculates better in an outdoor setting versus into a net, so keep that in mind. Comparison with Other Launch Monitors: It measures Carry/Total Distance, Smash Factor, Launch Angle, Swing Speed, Apex (Max Height), and Ball Speed. Full details are below.

Let’s start with an overview of the SC300i for those that are new to Swing Caddie. This launch monitor measures swing speed, ball speed, carry distance, launch angle, and apex using Doppler Radar. It also reports smash factor and, with the app, spin rate. The data is displayed on the large, easy to read screen as well as on your phone, if you’re using the app. The Swing Caddie SC300i also announces the results of each shot, though this can be turned off if you’re at a public range.Adding to the SC300i’s longevity is the ability to use it with or without a phone. Being able to drop it down on any range or in your garage and get right to work is invaluable. That said, the SC300i makes using the app worthwhile thanks to spin, video, and long term progress measurements. Does the SC300i auto-record (through the app) video of the swing and auto clip and place swing data on the video clip? There are two additional steps to take if you want to get the most accurate numbers. First, when you turn it on, a number will appear on the screen. Adjust the tilt of the unit until the number is zero. Second, if you want the horizontal launch angle to be accurate, you’ll need to align the unit with your target. There is a small red line on the top of the Swing Caddie SC4 to help with this, but it’s much easier with the alignment plate. The alignment plate and carrying case are sold separately. Overall, the Swing Caddie SC300i offers great value for money. It is a reliable and accurate launch monitor that provides useful data for golfers of all skill levels. If you are looking for a launch monitor that won’t break the bank but still delivers great performance, the SC300i is definitely worth considering. Final Thoughts

The new Swing Caddie SC300i is the latest addition to the family of portable launch monitors progressing on from the award winning SC300. It does not measure clubhead path or even calculate it, but then very few inexpensive launch monitors can do this. The wealth of information it does provide though can really help golfers dial in their swing or equipment preferences, especially when it comes to gapping your irons or wedges. The original Rapsodo Mobile Launch Monitor was a favorite among My Golf Spy and Golf Digest lists. Now, the new Rapsodo MLM2PRO™ is the official personal launch monitor of Golf Digest’s Hot List. It provides the same industry leading data with additional metrics to further enhance the user’s experience—plus golf simulation! Like some golf launch monitors, the Approach R10 will not automatically recognize your clubs because it uses Doppler-based technology as opposed to camera-based.Even the FlightScope Mevo which also doesn’t have lateral data does a good job of providing more in the way of visual data charts. Rapsodo partnered with Callaway to create special radar capture golf balls for the best indoor simulator experience.

The new Swing Caddie SC4 golf launch monitor does everything the SC300i does, plus adds some pretty solid upgrades, including: While it certainly isn’t as full-featured as say the FlightScope Skills app or a 3rd party product like, Awesome Golf, it’s an enjoyable way to mix up your practice routine. MySwingCaddie' App, working together with the SC300 & SC300i & SC4, can analyze your shot and provide statistics from collected data. The device is easy to set up and use, with a simple user interface that is accessible to golfers of all skill levels.It’s bigger and heavier than the SC200 Plus, but that doesn’t bother me. It feels like a high-quality product. Similarly, this Voice Caddie golf device works through the MySwingCaddie app which works with iOS and Android mobile devices. This golf app is compatible with: Chalk up the last few years as a standout era for the best golf launch monitor! First, Swing Caddie made some solid upgrades to their SC300i golf launch monitor and MySwingCaddie app. Then Garmin came out of nowhere with the almost too good to be true Approach R10 portable launch monitor and golf simulator. And while these latest personal golf launch monitors—the R10 especially because of its simulation capabilities and outrageously low price—are like gifts from the golf tech gods, they drafted off some pretty impressive early golf launch monitors. Carry & total distance – Only carry distance shows up on the device itself. You have to use the app to get total distance.

One of the main advantages of the SC300i is its ease of use. The device is easy to set up and navigate, and the user interface is intuitive and user-friendly. Golfers of all skill levels can benefit from using this launch monitor, whether they are beginners looking to improve their swing or experienced players looking to fine-tune their shots. Golf launch monitors usually use camera-based technology (photometric) or Doppler radar technology to measure club and ball data. The SC300i from Voice Caddie uses a Doppler radar sensor with a frequency of k band 24 GHz. The first thing I noticed was the build quality of the device. It felt solid and well-constructed. It has a sleek, modern design and even though it’s bigger than the previous SC200 Plus model, it’s still small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, making it easy to carry to the range or course. saw the personal launch monitor category explode. Launch monitors went from being something that you could only use at high end fittings to something most golfers can afford. Plugged In Golf spent the year testing almost every major offering, so we’re wrapping things up by letting you know which ones we recommend at each price point, as well as naming the overall best value. Video feature will auto record once swing is taken and will separate videos for each swing. Note that you will need to be in the video tab of the MySwingCaddie app for the video to be recorded. Swing data is available in video tab and data points can be edited in settings to show exactly what customer wants.The SC300i is geared more towards the casual golfer, who is looking to make their practice sessions more fun, and don’t need their numbers to be pinpoint accurate. While each device in this launch monitor category has its own strengths and weaknesses, I would recommend the SC300i to the majority of golfers for its ease of use and accuracy.
