Follow all positioning recommendations as to when
hitting a golf ball
When practicing swinging without a ball, only club head
speed can be displayed. In some rare cases, ball speed
and distance of flight may be displayed when practicing
swinging without a ball. These values are due to noise
interface, and are not correct measurement results.
Install / position the device
Install/position the device as shown in the figure below.
Position the device in a flat location with no uneven
terrain, and ensure that there are no obstacles between
the device and the ball.

If there is a discrepancy between the direction of your swing
(i.e. the direction in which you are hitting the ball) and the
direction in which the device is facing, you will not be able to
make accurate measurements.

OPERATION

The device will not take measurements
Check the “Install/position the device” section of this manual to
confirm that the device has been installed/positioned correctly.
In some cases, when hitting the ball high in the air using a wedge or
other such club, the ball speed will be slow and the smash factor will be
below the prescribed level, preventing measurements from being taken.
(This is a result of the specifications of the device itself, and is not a
malfunction).
The measurement values are strange or abnormal
Measurements of club head speed are made in accordance with PRGR’s
own criteria. Differences may arise between measurements taken with
this device and those taken with devices manufactured by other firms.
Check the “Install/position the device” section of this manual to confirm
that the device has been installed/positioned correctly.
Depending on the type of ball used, in some cases, ball speed may not
be displayed correctly. Measurements cannot be made using plastic
balls, sponge balls, or other balls designed for practice-only use.
To account for ones own unique swing characteristics the device may be
turned up to 45 degrees in either direction in relation to the target line
and elevated off the ground up to 5 inches

Estimated distance of flight
• Portable Launch Monitor -Red Eyes Pocket- calculates
the estimated distance of a flight based on large
volumes of practice swing data accumulated by PRGR.
• The estimated distance of flight is the carry flight
distance calculated using measured ball speed and the
average angle of swing and amount of spin for each
numbered club.
• Depending on the club that you are using,
discrepancies may arise between the estimated
distance of flight and the actual distance travelled by
the ball.
• The estimate does not take the directionality of a hit
ball into consideration.
