Mevo vs. Mevo+: Which one is the best fit for you?

FlightScope Mevo vs. Mevo+

When it comes to golf launch monitors, FlightScope is a company renowned for their accurate performance data technology for all golfers. In its family brand, FlightScope has developed two popular tracking devices that have revolutionized the way golfers analyze their data: the FlightScope Mevo and the Mevo+. While both devices offer very specific data parameters, they have distinct features, capabilities, and price points that cater to the needs of golfers at all skill levels. Here are the differences between the Mevo and the Mevo plus, so you can decide which is best fit for you.

FlightScope Mevo: Despite its pocket size, the Mevo is an extremely functional unit with 8 full swing data parameters, challenges and games, data margins, and automatic video clipping features in the FlightScope FS Golf app. It uses 3D Doppler tracking technology to provide you with accurate data on carry distance, ball speed, club speed, smash factor, spin rate, launch angle, apex height, and flight time. These measurements are crucial in understanding the effectiveness of your swing and can help you make adjustments to improve your game.

One of the key advantages of the Mevo is its portability. It easily fits into your pocket, and can be set up quickly on the driving range, on-course during a round, practice net in your garage or backyard, or even inside your home in a bonus room or basement. The Mevo connects to your smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth, allowing you to view your swing data in real-time through the FS Golf app. The software also includes a video feature that automatically records, clips and saves videos of your swing alongside data from that shot so that you can view your video and data on one screen. The FS Golf app also allows you to edit that video and draw lines and circles on it, and send them directly to yourself, text or email it to friends and family, share it on social media, or send it to your coach - all directly from the app.

Also included with the Mevo and FS Golf app is FlightScope Challenges. The challenges in the FS Golf app give users the ability to practice with a purpose and test their skills. Enjoy interactive games designed to help users with distance control, consistency, speed training, and more. The three challenges available with Mevo in the FS Golf app are PGA/LPGA Challenges, Range Competition, and Long Drive Competition.

The FlightScope Mevo is an excellent choice for golfers looking for a portable and budget-friendly launch monitor that can fit in your pocket. Enhance your game and track your progress over time with the most portable, accurate, and affordable 3D Doppler Radar.

FlightScope Mevo+: If you are seeking a launch monitor with more data parameters, more features, and simulated golf courses, the FlightScope Mevo+ is a great option. The Mevo+ offers all of the data and features of the Mevo but includes additional data parameters, 10 simulated golf courses, customizable skills challenges and combines, and FlightScope patented Fusion Tracking technology. It may not be able to fit in your pocket, but it fits in your golf bag pocket.

The Mevo+ includes all of the 8 data parameters that Mevo features, plus additional data parameters: Angle of attack, spin loft, launch direction, spin axis, roll distance, total distance, lateral landing, shot dispersion, and shot type. Mevo+ also includes 3 putting data parameters: launch speed, total distance, and ball direction. These additional data points provide a more in-depth analysis of your game and help identify specific areas for improvement. Furthermore, the Mevo+ has a swing video integration feature like the Mevo, but with the ability to record video not only through a tablet or phone but from the Mevo+ device itself. The Mevo+ also includes a multicam feature that allows users to record video from multiple angles. All of these videos are automatically clipped and synched and can all be viewed together on one screen.

Mevo+ also comes straight out of the box with 10 simulated golf courses, 17 practice ranges, and a mini game from E6 Connect. The FlightScope E6 Connect bundle can be played on your tablet, phone, or PC and include the following golf courses:

Bay Hill - FL, USA

The Belfry - Sutton Coldfield, England

Aviara - CA, USA

Stone Canyon - AZ, USA

Wade Hampton - NC, USA

Sanctuary - CO, USA

Oslo Golf Club - Norway, Europe

Panther Lake - FL, USA

Thanksgiving Point - UT, USA

Par 3 Ocean Course - Fantasy Course

While your Mevo+ comes with simulation capability and the ownership of 10 E6 Connect golf courses, you can also purchase more and gain access to up to 100,000 different golf courses. The Mevo+ is integrated with simulation software such as The Golf Club 2019 (TGC2019), Creative Golf 3D, Awesome Golf, and GS Pro - giving users options to choose which additional software best fits their budget and needs.

Another useful feature that Mevo+ offers is full access to the FS Skills. This app includes FlightScope designed combines, the ability to customize and create your own challenge, and compete against friends or family for the highest score. Use the FS Skills app to add some pressure to your practice with virtual targets aimed to help users improve their skills or evaluate students.

On top of everything that is already included with the Mevo+, owners of the Mevo+ are able to purchase specific upgrade add-on such as the Mevo+ Pro Package, and Face Impact Location. The Mevo+ Pro Package includes the complete D-Plane dataset which offers 11 additional parameters, some of which include club path, face to path, face to target, swing planes, low point, and more. This additional data can help golfers, instructors, and club fitters improve their game or enhance their business. Another beneficial upgrade add-on option that Mevo+ users have is Face Impact Location. This add-on can only be bought after the Pro Package is purchased, and it utilizes FlightScope’s advanced fusion tracking so you can view the precise impact location of every shot on the club face and compare it to the data for each shot. This combination of data and visual feedback can significantly enhance the understanding of your swing mechanics.

The FlightScope Mevo+ with Pro Package and Face Impact Location add-ons is the most fully equipped launch monitor and simulator in its price range today and is an excellent choice if you are looking for the most value for your money.
