Caddie’s Call
Radar tracking means lighting barely matters, which suits a garage, and the 12ft depth minimum fits rooms that rule out most alternatives. The tradeoff is ball data only: six metrics, no club path or face angle. Good for playing and carry numbers, not for diagnosing a slice.
For you if
- Compact and portable design
- Works in tight spaces with 12ft minimum depth
- Typically less sensitive to lighting variations
Not for you if
- No club path or face angle data
- Limited to basic ball flight metrics
