anybody using them?

The purecontact is useful at the driving range, but it really shows you how bad most driving range balls are. Golfsmith balls fly around 10 yards shorter(carry) than a premium ball. So you have to take this into account when you use it. It really helps if your range uses used real golf balls rather than range balls. I have seen up to 20 yards of carry distance difference between a good ball and a range ball with similar contact.

I have been using this unit for several years and have been quite pleased with the results. I find that it is most accurate with nice, lofty shots up to about 200 yards. On lower, penetrating shots, where it is suppose to calculate carry + roll, I find it less accurate. When I hit shots that I know are consistent (i.e. 8/9 irons) the digital readout shows that I did hits each shot within one of two yards of each other. A suggestion ... since this is a unit that is not used all the time, you might share the cost with several other golfing buddies to help defer the $299 (???) price.

i've owned two units and they never worked reliably. it misses too many shots so i sold them.

I love mine its really helped me and my students. Its the best tool I have found for gapping iron and its a lot smaller and faster to set up then the launch monitor.
