Uneekor just introduced something interesting into the launch monitor space: the EYE MINI CORE, an entry-level priced launch monitor designed to appeal to both first-timers and experienced users. What’s particularly interesting about the new unit is that it’s being sold exclusively on Amazon.

At first glance, the MINI CORE feels like Uneekor’s attempt to keep things as simple as possible without crippling the technology. The unit tracks 15 ball data points using their Dimple Optix technology. Since the Uneekor EYE MINI CORE is camera based, there’s no need for reflective stickers or any of the growing number of radar-optimized golf balls. Indications are that clubhead data isn’t part of the package, but those seeking a streamlined simulator experience and a basic practice setup aren’t likely to care.

That said, for those looking for a bit more, the EYE MINI CORE can be paired Swing Optix (sold separately) to unlock AI Trainer swing insights and feedback and capture a bit of clubhead data as well.

An Amazon exclusive

The Amazon-only approach is genuinely interesting. Sure, it probably comes with lower distribution costs and maybe some favorable rates for exclusivity, but it’s not like they’re missing out on reaching golfers. Amazon almost certainly accounts for more golf purchases than any retailer in the world and many of us are more comfortable with Amazon delivery than we are at the local Wal-Mart.

What you get for your money is pretty straightforward: real-time ball tracking, VIEW software for analysis, and compatibility with 3rd party simulator software packages like GSPro, E6 Connect, TGC19, Creative Golf 3D. For what it’s worth (not much), Uneekor is also throwing in a one-month trial (one whole month!) of their Ultimate Package, which gives you access to 4K courses and online play.

Titleist is spearheading a major change in how golfers should gap their irons. For decades, the standard fitting practice has been aiming for a 10-yard distance gap between each iron in the bag. Now, the new philosophy suggests a better metric is a consistent 5 mph ball speed difference between clubs.

The theory is sound, but its adoption presents a significant hurdle.

The Accessibility Problem

The biggest challenge facing this 5 mph gapping theory is accessibility.

On a traditional driving range, a golfer can easily estimate a 10-yard difference, judging by where the ball lands. However, measuring an exact 5 mph ball speed difference is impossible without precise technology. This fitting method requires a launch monitor, immediately excluding the vast majority of amateur golfers who practice without one. The most valuable information is therefore only accessible to those who can afford dedicated fitting sessions or personal launch technology.

Why Data-Driven Gapping is Superior

Despite the accessibility barrier, the consensus is that the data-driven approach is objectively better:
