What it measures

Measured values come straight from the sensor. Calculated values are estimated from other measurements, which is usually less reliable for spin and club data.

Subscriptions and three-year cost

Device plus three years of a plan: $899.96 with Garmin Golf membership. A screen, a projector and any third-party simulator software come on top; the Bay Sizer lists those.
