What independent testing reveals
Golf Monthly’s Mike Bailey found the 2023 Mevo+ useful for more than full swings, particularly enjoying pitch feedback and reviewing shot groups alongside video. Its practical strength is structured practice with plenty to explore. There is a learning curve and a radar alignment routine, so allow time and suitable space.

He became comfortable with the basic functions and valued chipping feedback. His accuracy impressions used other monitors and known club distances without a complete published error dataset. Confirm which hardware version and optional data packages are included.
The report describes the model and software available during its original test. Check the version, current software access and supplied equipment before buying; historical prices are not current purchase terms.
The 30-second verdict
Replaced by the FlightScope Mevo Gen2. The Gen2 keeps the same radar and camera technology, costs less and lasts much longer on a charge.

What to consider

Owning it: warranty, returns and rules
| Left- and right-handed golfers | It sits behind the golfer, so left- and right-handers can share it without moving it. Allow the extra room depth this needs. |
|---|---|
| Balls and stickers | Indoors, metallic stickers on the ball are needed for accurate spin. |
| Budget beyond the box | For indoor use, budget for a hitting mat and a net or impact screen, and for any simulator software you want. See complete setup costs. |
