Maximum Ball Speed Limited?

I have had my G80 for some time now but the ball speed definitely has a limit. For my unit, that limit is 178 mph. I had mentioned this in another thread and also sent a complain to customer support but I thought it was justified to have more visibility to this specific issue. The fix for clubhead speed is great, and if this issue can be fixed (assuming it isn't only my unit with the issue), the G80 will be absolutely perfect for all my needs (and original expectations of it).

Hopefully others can chime in and confirm or deny that what I am seeing ia also happening on their units.

Thanks.

I find it hard to believe there are only a couple of people with this problem. It seems likely to be a software glitch not necessarily a hardware one. Some time ago I was assured this was being looked into but it was never resolved. Can we get some renewed focus on this please? Is the R10 capable of outputting over 178 mph ball speed? I think it would be in Garmin's best interest to take care of this just from a shear quality standpoint even if the problem only effects 1% of the people that use their devices.

Make sure that your Approach G80 is up to date on software (v. 4.10 currently as of May 17th, 2023).

Also ensure that the proper recommended spacing for using the launch monitor features on the G80, and eliminate any potential causes of radar interference that may be occurring when taking shots.

Refer to the Positioning the Approach G80 for using Radar Features Garmin Support page, along with the Troubleshooting Radar Features of the Approach G80 for more information.
