Smash factor is the efficiency of your strike. The equation is straightforward but understanding what it means and how to maximise it is another question. In this article we explain what it is, what it means and how to use it to improve with a golf launch monitor
Roll distance is often ignored by golfers, but when you can master the roll it becomes an effective tool for course strategy and club selection. It’s the difference between your carry distance and your total distance — and it can be the difference between being in the fairway… or running into trouble. This article helps you understand how using a launch monitor can help you understand why roll distance is important.
We've tested the FlightScope Mevo Gen2 golf launch monitor and simulator extensively so you can see what it's like before you buy. Maybe you're deciding between different launch monitors, or perhaps it's your first step into golf tech so you can really understand your game, or maybe you just want to play simulator golf at home. We have combined our years of golf tech knowledge (nearly 20 years!) with the latest product from FlightScope and tell you all you need to know.
The secret to better golf isn’t hidden in the latest clubs. It’s hidden in your swing data.
When you can see what your swing is doing wrong, you can fix it — and once you fix it, your existing clubs suddenly start performing like they should.
Stop wasting money on new clubs. Fix your swing with golf tech that actually works.
Club head speed is how fast your club is moving when it strikes the ball. Simple as that. Get the measurement right, train smart, and you'll unlock serious distance gains.
In this guide, we’ll break down how different golf balls perform with radar-based vs. camera-based launch monitors, and whether you should be using standard golf balls, Titleist RCT balls, or ball stickers for the most realistic indoor golf experience. It's all about accuracy and how accurate you want your golf simulator experience to be. The type of ball you use can have a big impact on accuracy, spin data, and overall performance in a golf simulator.
