Product: FlightScope Mevo+ launch monitor

Pitch from FlightScope: “Elevate your golf game with the most fully equipped launch monitor and simulator. The award-winning Mevo+ comes out of the box with 20 data parameters, 10 simulated golf courses, skills challenges, games, and more. Using Patented Fusion Tracking technology, the Mevo+ gives users accurate and consistent performance data for indoor and outdoor use. Whether you want to practice with a purpose and improve your game or just have fun with family and friends, the Mevo+ is for you.”

Plus, with a promo code (HOLIDAY23) you can get the Mevo+, which retails for $2,199, for $1,869.

Our take on the FlightScope Mevo+

FlightScope’s Mevo+ has been one of the most-used and widely praised launch monitor models over the past few years, but that didn’t mean that FlightScope was going to just sit back and enjoy the ride. Adding new features and even some hardware updates was the big story for Mevo+ in 2023 with the addition of the Pro Package and Face Impact location upgrades.

As a refresher, FlightsSope’s patented Fusion Tracking software combines the monitor’s 3D Doppler radar and image processing for unmatched data accuracy. Combining the two capture systems lets the strengths of each shine, giving you the most accurate data on your swing and shots.

The Mevo+ tracks and displays 20 data parameters, including club head speed, ball speed, launch, and spin that all golfers want to see to dial in their game. Adding the Pro Package adds another 30 parameters like face-to-path, face-to-target, vertical swing plane, low point, and much more. If you are a golfer looking to tune up your swing this winter, the club data can help you and your coach ensure you are making the progress you need.

For the club junkies out there, FlightScope’s Mevo+ will get your club distances dialed in or optimize the flight on that new adjustable driver or fairway wood. Doppler radar tracks the golf ball from the second it leaves the club until it reaches the ground, so you know exactly how your shots are going to perform on the course.

If you are looking to do a little indoor simulation golf during the cold months, then the Mevo+ has you covered there as well. E6 Connect is included with your Mevo+ purchase, which includes six golf courses, 17 practice ranges, and online games to scratch the golf itch until you can get back out on the course. FlightScope also includes its FS Skills app that will help you assess your skills and compare them to other golfers around the world. FS Skills can make practice fun with targets and distance games that help improve your weaknesses.

Again, with promo code (HOLIDAY23) you can get the Mevo+, which retails for $2,199, for just $1,869.

Toulon Golf collaborates with Valhalla Golf Club for latest Small Batch putter

Published

May 15, 2024

GolfWRX Staff

Toulon Golf has today officially announced its latest Small Batch putter — the Valhalla.

Discussing the putter, Preston Toulon of Toulon Golf said: “This putter is a collaboration with the club at Valhalla and incorporates three of the many things that make the state of Kentucky great – horseracing, bourbon and championship golf. The head of the putter and headcover have several allusions to a jockey’s silk and there are thoroughbreds on the sole.”

Inspired by Toulon’s classic tri-sole Santa Monica design, the company sought to modernize the profile and design leveraging its 904 stainless steel and 6061 aircraft aluminium across the sole. Toulon describes the Valhalla’s profile as “slightly oversized blade whose proportions are meticulously balanced to maintain the look and feel of the Santa Monica, while increasing the putter’s inertia to create one of the most forgiving putters we have ever designed.”

Throughout numerous prototypes, Toulon paid particular attention to the L-neck, with its full shaft of offset, adding a bit of length for better blending with the slightly wider and longer blade.

On the rear of the putter are homages to horse racing in the form of jockey silk diamonds and Churchill Downs-inspired font.

The sole of the putter features a large cavity covered by a 6061 aircraft aluminum sole plate. According to Toulon, this allowed for the addition length to the putter and improved inertia as well as moving more mass to the perimeter for greater forgiveness.

In another nod to Valhalla, Toulon uses a milled watermarked limestone pattern, a reference to stone featured widely on the property.

As with all the Toulon Small Batch putters, the team paid particular attention to the topline thickness and radius to achieve a desired look. “Soft yet crisp was the design intent,” according to the company.
