R10 distances seem off.

I have been using the R10 for a couple days now and my distances seems way off. Seems very club is approx 20yards short from the range? Is there anything that needs to be done with calibration?

I'm a new owner couple days. Every club is ridiculously short. On real course I bomb 250 on bad hits....I struggle to get 180yds reading. All the irons seem like they are read like an 8I. Can't get…

I really encourage everyone who is experiencing problems with distances to contact Garmin support so they understand the magnitude of this issue.

I'm having the same problem. Carry distances are about 20 yards short. I'm using an outdoor net with 9+ feet of flight in front, with the R10 sitting about 6.5 feet behind me. Version 3.3.

I’m getting awful distance readings as well. Indoors, 10 feet to screen and R10 is 7ft behind the ball. Typically getting 3 clubs less distance than at the range.

Same here, just received it yesterday, set everything up tonight. Just hit my 8 iron, yardage was spot on....came in to feed the dogs, went back out to the garage and the unit updated to 3.30, same club, same set up, nothing changed and yardage was 20 to 25 yards shorter after the update. This needs to be corrected.

I’m having the exact same issue. Launch is super low.

Same issue here. 3.2 everything was “close” ~10-15 yards short. Upgraded to 3.3 and I’m now 20-30 yds short. This needs fixed ASAP

Same issue here hitting outside into a net. I was using 2 clubs more for the irons to hit the right distance. Like a 5 iron instead of 7 to get it to go 150 yards. Driver couldn’t get above 200-210 or so and I’d say I’m 250
