Is my R50 defective? Club path data seems wrong.

I've had my R50 for only a couple weeks and it keeps saying my club path is very left-to-right (like 10 degrees) for my 7 iron. I figured it was correct, so I've been working on trying to fix that. But then I decided to test it out with some very simple chip shots and made sure my club path was as close to 0 as possible and it still says 6 degrees to the right. So then I did a chip where I purposely went very right to left and it registered as 0 degrees but said my club face was very left.  And I'm 100% sure that wasn't the case.

Anyone else notice this about their R50, or is mine faulty?

    Same issue, here, its been driving me crazy, even setting up wide open and intentionally hitting a slice. The ball flight checks out but it will still tell me -10 degrees face to path.

    I recommend recording your swing from behind using a smartphone and then replay the video slowly to view what the path is showing in comparison to what the R50 is showing for the metric. 

    Also ensure you are using the club face sticker so the unit will record both club and ball data during the session. 

    If you continue to feel the metric is not recording correctly, I recommend contacting Garmin Support so additional information can be reviewed from your shot metrics, along with additional detailed shot logging that can be gathered as well.
