Garmin Approach R10 + Carl's Place Studio FAQs

Does the Garmin Approach R10 require a subscription?

There's a lot you can do for free with the Garmin Golf app (see below). But if you want virtual rounds on Home Tee Hero on 42,000+ courses, Green Contour data, and the ability to store video clips of your shots in the cloud—the answer is you need a premium subscription. Good news, though, the cost is only $9.99/month or save a little for $99.99/year!

Does the Garmin R10 Measure Putting?

This super-affordable golf gadget does not measure putting during simulation—no launch monitor at this price does yet. You'll have to check out one of our more expensive units, like the Bushnell Launch Pro or FlightScope Mevo+, if that's a must-have.

Does the R10 measure Spin Rate and Spin Axis?

No, the R10 does not measure Spin Rate and Spin Axis, but it does estimate it from the metrics it does measure.

Do I need to use markings or stickers on the golf ball with the Approach R10?

You do not have to use marked balls. However, for the most accurate spin data indoors, RCT (radar capture technology) balls are recommended.

Can the Garmin Approach R10 be used with multiple players?

Yes! The Approach R10 can be used in multi-player mode with up to 4 players.

Can the Garmin R10 be used by right-handed and left-handed players?

Yes! It can be used by righties and lefties.

How Much Space Do I Need for Garmin Approach R10 + Carl's Place Studio?

When measuring for a golf simulator, make sure you take into account:

  • Buffer space: You don't want your golf simulator right up next to any walls or ceiling. Balls that contact the walls or ceiling can cause damage and have unwanted bounce back.
  • Footprint of the golf enclosure: Make sure to check the actual dimensions of the enclosure footprint. Our C-Series enclosures have built-in buffer space in the rear with the backset rear fitting.
  • Safe golfing distance away from the screen: For the safety of both the golfer and the screen, we recommend standing a minimum distance of 10 to 12 feet away from the screen.
  • Height of the golfer(s)
  • Length of the golf club(s)
  • Turf thickness, heating ducts, and soffits
  • Furniture and access to doorways
