Shot Scope LM1
Shot Scope • Doppler Radar
Overview
The Shot Scope LM1 is a $200 pocket-sized radar launch monitor launched at the 2026 PGA Show. It shows five metrics on a 3.5" color display — ball speed, club speed, smash factor, carry, and total distance — and syncs to the free Shot Scope app over Bluetooth. Independent testing from MyGolfSpy and Breaking Eighty found ball speed within 1-2 mph of TrackMan and carry close to reference on well-struck shots. It is a practice device only: it does not measure spin, launch, or club delivery data, and it does not connect to simulator software.
Best For
Golfers who want accurate speed and carry numbers for practice and club gapping at the lowest price of any credible launch monitor, and who don't need spin, launch, or simulator play.
Available Models
LM1
Compact Doppler radar (300 g) with a 3.5" color display. Five metrics, 1,000-shot storage, 5-hour battery, USB-C charging, IPX3 rating. No subscription.
$200
Metrics Tracked (5)
Five metrics only — no launch angle, spin, launch direction, or club path/face data
Reviewers found club speed can read 1-2 mph high; treat it as a consistent baseline rather than an absolute number
Capture rate is above 90% on full swings but drops on chips and severe mis-hits
How to Export Screenshot Upload
- 1Hit your shots with the LM1
- 2Sync to the Shot Scope app over Bluetooth, or read the shot on the 3.5" display
- 3Take a screenshot of the shot data in the Shot Scope app (or a clear photo of the display)
- 4Upload it to SimSights — our OCR will extract the shot data automatically
Note: The LM1 does not offer CSV export and does not connect to simulator software, so screenshots are the only way to get LM1 data into SimSights.
Tips for Best Results
- Place the unit about 4.5 feet behind the ball, aligned with your target
- Use it to compare carry distances and speed across clubs; it does not diagnose ball flight (no spin or launch data)
- Stores up to 1,000 shots before you need to sync
- Battery lasts about 5 hours; charges via USB-C
