What it works out
According to reviewers
- Carry distance
- Total distance
- Peak height
- Descent angle
- Offline
Foresight's 2023 Ball and Club Data guide says the cameras measure the launch numbers and an algorithm works out the flight numbers. Foresight's GCHawk support page says club data needs stickers on the club face. One store says no stickers are needed; we follow Foresight.
