Key Tradeoffs
All specs are manufacturer/retailer-published pre-launch claims; no independent lab or field accuracy testing existed as of the research date. Doppler-radar device with a small set of directly sensed values (ball speed, club speed, launch angle, launch direction) and the rest calculated; indoor…
Sensor Technology
0 (no camera; radar-only device — confirmed across manufacturer and all retailer sources) cam · 1 (single Doppler radar sensor inferred; manufacturer lists it simply as "Doppler radar" and does not publish an explicit sensor count)…
Technology
Portable Doppler-radar launch monitor. A single radar sensor measures ball flight via the Doppler effect and feeds an on-unit 4.3" TFT LCD display (800:1 contrast). Independently confirmed across the manufacturer product page, Shop Indoor Golf, Carl's Golfland, Maple Hill,…
Ball Data
20+ metrics (one source cites "up to 23"). Directly sensed on-device: Ball Speed, Club Speed, Launch Angle, Launch Direction. Calculated on-device: Apex, Carry Distance, Total Distance, Total/Back/Side Spin, Spin Axis, Attack Angle, Club Path, Smash Factor. App-only…
Club Data
Calculated (mostly). On-device the radar reports Club Speed (alongside Ball Speed, Launch Angle, Launch Direction). Club Path, Attack Angle, and Smash Factor are calculated/derived. No club-face/path
Sim Ready
GSPro and E6 Connect at launch (confirmed across manufacturer page and all retailers). A native Blue Tees simulation / full-course platform is described as in development for a future membership package later in 2026. No TGC/2K, FSX,…

Device Reqs
Mobile + onboard. Standalone on its 4.3-inch TFT LCD; connected features and E6/GSPro simulator integration run via the MOBILE LAUNCH app (Blue Tees GAME / LAUNCH app). No standalone Windows/Mac software is published — the app is the…
Subscription
Optional — device is fully usable standalone with no mandatory subscription (offline Practice, Target Distance, Swing Speed modes; core data and companion app work free). Subscription pricing is…
Special Balls
No marked balls, no metallic/spin stickers, and no proprietary balls required. Works with standard golf balls. Blue Tees says it is "optimized to read both standard and radar-enhanced balls with high accuracy" — radar-enhanced balls are…
Mounting
Portable / floor or low-stand placement, behind the ball on the target line with the radar facing the intended landing/target area (standard behind-ball radar placement). Not overhead, not ceiling-mounted, not side-mounted. Has an angle-adjustable stand handle and a detachable magnetic remote.
