Golf Buddy Shot Mate Launch Monitor
The GOLFBUDDY Shot Mate Launch Monitor is a compact, easy-to-use practice tool that gives golfers real-time swing data, including club speed, ball speed, smash factor, and estimated carry or total distance. Portable and lightweight, it features a clear backlit LCD display, built-in kickstand, USB-C charging, and simple setup with no apps or subscriptions required.
Shot Mate also includes Practice Swing Mode, allowing you to measure club speed without hitting a ball, ideal for swing speed training, warm-ups, tempo work, and speed stick practice.
4 Key Metrics: Club Speed, Ball Speed, Smash Factor and Carry/Total Distance.
Accurate Radar: Advanced radar technology delivers reliable practice data in real time.
Pocket Sized: Compact and lightweight with a built-in kickstand for easy set-up.
Easy To Use: No apps or subscriptions. Just power on, place behind the ball and swing.
Setup & Placement: Place the Shot Mate approximately 1.0 – 1.5 metres behind the ball with the radar area facing the ball and swing path. For best results, ensure there are no obstructions between the device and the ball. The built-in kickstand allows quick setup, and raising the device slightly may help improve recognition.
Care Notes: Shot Mate is a precision electronic device and is not waterproof. Avoid use in rain, humid conditions, dusty areas, or extreme heat. Protect the LCD screen from impact, avoid dropping the unit, and do not operate the buttons with hard objects such as golf clubs.
