Shot Scope's numbers

  • Put the LM1 on the ground 4 to 5 ft (1.4 m) behind the ball, in line with your target. The screen faces the target.
  • Keep it on the same level as the ball. For speed training only, put it 6 to 8 ft behind you.
  • Keep other radio devices, computers and launch monitors away from it, because they can upset the radar.
  • Shot Scope gives no number for the distance to the net, ceiling height or room width.

What it works out

According to reviewers

    NOTE

    Shot Scope's guide says the LM1 measures and displays these five values. It does not say which are worked out by software. The LM1 shows no spin or launch angle.

    Software that works with the LM1

    Sheet D-2 · Software

    The simulator runs on your phone, tablet, PC or TV, not on the LM1. Third-party simulators run without a Shot Scope membership, but they have their own cost.
