Swing Caddie SC 200 vs Swing Caddie SC 300 - Which One is Better? 

I'm glad you did this! I picked up an sc300 with your discount code a few weeks ago. Really makes me feel good knowing the wedges are accurate. That was my only concern. Love it love it!!!

Nice review. I have the SC200 and really only use it for full shots, so I'll stick with that one. Of course, nothing is fool-proof. I thinned driver yesterday and it rolled about 150 yards, but the SC200 told me that I bombed it 326!!!

Good review, especially concerning short chips and pitches. I've had the SC200 for about two years and I like it alot. I don't worry about chips and pitches because I can see the results up close but on anything further than 100 yards it is spot on. If you want to or can afford the 500+ for the 300, go for it but if you're on a budget, the 200 is great for most people. You can tune in the loft of each club as well to personalize your specific set to your liking. You must set it up correctly and have it on the same level on the ground as the ball you're hitting or it won't read properly. Otherwise, it's a great product for dialing in distances and specific club uses.

Thanks for this video. Picked up an SC300 after watching your first video on it. I especially appreciate you using the laser range finder in this video and giving the actual distances to your target. It made it much easier to understand how accurate the SC300 is.

Dude, your videos, content, comparisons, and thoroughness are top notch! Keep this quality up!

Thanks Matt for creating videos that we can actually use! Already bought the 300 late last year, works great. How about more on the course videos focusing on decision making on each shot, your mental game. Love when you explain "why you pull this club" instead of going for it! Shot saving techniques for the average golfer. Thanks, Al

Thank you Matt, I want to get the SC-200 but was holding back because of other reviews saying that it was good product but not too accurate in long irons and drivers. But you showed us it works well with longer clubs. Great video.

You are truly the man!!! Love the comparison video. Definitely makes the decision to buy either device easier.

Great! Thank you so much! And now ... just to please me ... and maybe others. A comparison SC300 vs Flightscope Mevo ...!?

The first honest review of the sc200. I bought one last season to work on my pitch distances and put it on eBay within a week as the yardage was way off on 3/4 shots.

Great review. I just bought the SC300 from Amazon so I paid too much but I really debated which of these to get for a while. I bring my ipad to the range and set it up so I can see it and put headphones in so I'm not bothering the other golfers and it works great.

I pulled the trigger on the SC300. The selling point was the phone sync (we are in 2019 after all) and the APEX. I read that the SC300 is more accurate on short game (bigger sensor) - you proved it here. The battery was the last point - lets go green. The price on the SC300 is a shocker but I see the value over time. Top review, thanks!

I'm returning mine. Today I went to the driving range and it was all over the place. I was getting readings that were 10-20 yards shorter than I was actually hitting my gap wedge (as measured with a laser) for example. On some shots it would be spot on, on others (about 50%) it was so far off as to be laughable. The final straw for me was at the end of the practice session, when I was good and warmed up and hitting the ball well, I pured my gap wedge and it flew 120+ plus yards, which is right on where I would expect for this kind of hit, and I looked down and the SC300 was showing 94.6 yards. It did seem as if it was getting the club head speed about right, but I can get something for $180 that will do that. The point of this unit was to get all the other data and it is all over the map. I don't know, maybe I got a bad one but I set it up exactly as described in the manual, including customizing all the lofts and putting it on exactly the same height as the ball and the seemingly random results continued. After 3-4 sessions at two different driving ranges, I gave up and am sending it back. $550 is too much for something that can't judge the difference between a 120 yard shot and a 95 yard one consistently.

I have the SC200. I agree with what you say about the chipping. It’s been really useful for me when hitting indoors during the winter. Now I want the SC300. Would love to know my ball flight.

Thanks for this. I had the sc200 and it kept locking up on me so I took it back and ordered the sc300. I hit into the net with the sc200 and chipping and pitching shot were horrible. On the coarse the 200 was dead on with most of my mid irons. to me its a tool for spaceing your clubs even if it cant be as accurate as a 20,000 dollar monitor.

The SC200 is great for SW to 5 iron. Also you can use it for dialing your wedges. Can't be used for chipping, pitching. Underclocks for driver..... I swing average around 108MPH, Measured on a GC quad. Swing Caddie has me around 103mph

Nice review...I use the SC100 ($160). It lacks voice and you have to toggle between ball speed and smash factor...it's a nice tool for the driving range or backyard. Not so much for my basement as it lacks lighting, but in the right practice conditions, it is a nice beginners tool.

It also gives you spin rates on the App. This allows you to know if its slicing or fading too much. Spin rate will be a lot higher on a missed shot.

You are awesome brother!! You crack me up and give me good info at the same time!! LOL! Absolutely love that you kept the fat shot in!!

Both use doppler radar to determine the club/distance. However, you put them side by side. They will interfere with each other. The doppler radar waves of one could be giving a false reading on the other one. Something to think about in this trial.

Bought the sc300 last week and I couldn’t be happier. There are times when it doesn’t read a shot but that would be maybe 2/10 shots. Not terrible but could’ve been me not lined up correctly. Overall I’m very pleased with this product. I hope some day they incorporate side spin and split the screen (phone or iPad app) to view the curvature of a shot. Wishful thinking perhaps. Thanks for the video

Us subscribers follow you because we enjoy your energy and info. Thabks! Btw...you don't talk too much. You just love what you do!

I would love to see you update the SC300 review since the app improvements and addition of video. I would also like to see you verify the Driver distance. My unit has great iron accuracy, but seem to be off 20 yards on driver.

Maybe my new fav YT golf personality

We really appreciate this comparison. Thanks so much and keep up the good work.

I have the SC200. I mostly use it to check full swing distances, especially with new clubs. I go to an actual driving range for short game practice. One warning though. Don't use it at a range where you have a roof over you. If it sticks out too far, the device cannot pick up the ball. One drive I hit where I thought I really smashed it, the device said I hit only 86 yards. LOL

Thanks for the honesty of your shots, it so genuine and I appreciate the review of the swing caddie. I think I’ll go with the sc300. 😊👍

Thanks for the video. I decided to go with the 300 and can’t wait to use it

A slight correction. Both have carry or total distance. I have the SC200. You can adjust loft on the remote for each club

Great review. At 9:28 was what I was really looking for. Thank for taking the time out of your day to do this review. I'm sold.

Thanks for the review. Your information was very helpful and I enjoyed it. Appreciate your insights.

I just purchased the SC200 a month ago. I would suggest you don't make the same mistake. It is not close to being accurate. I've taken it to the range three times and hit multiple clubs. The readings were all over the place. It was so bad I only used it to check my swing speed and smash factor during the end of my practice session. Beware of this product!!

This review is quite helpful for me. Now I know what's the difference between them. Thank you.

Just caught your review...I have a SC200 an have not found it to be too accurate with wedges or long irons...The Earnest Sports ES 14 is much more accurate...Will have to try the SC300 to see some results...Thanks...

Your vids are so helpful man u and shiels are helping so many people

Curious to see an update on your time with it. I made the purchase 3 months ago and regret it. It’s just not accurate. Even though I hate looking at data on my cell phone in the sunlight, I think the Mevo is a better, overall product. S.C. customer service is terrible as well. No answers to my questions

To start out with I think the SC200 would be useful at the driving range I frequent.

The only thing I wish my SC300 had is a place to put notes for each days practice. RE: wind direction, weather, etc.

Sc 300 vs mevo would be a great comparison since they are around the same price range and similar features. Otherwise great review, I am definitely looking into purchasing an affordable launch monitor for practice.

Big question 2. When using backyard net, how many feet is the hitting mat from the impact net. I need to set up an outdoor range iny backuard. Thx

Your 300 says you were hitting a sand wedge Perhaps that made some difference in the feedback - as opposed to the pitching wedge you may have put on the 200.

GARMIN G6 uses GPS to get the exact distance the shot was hit. After the player hits the shot you press measure then walk to your ball, then press measure again, and you have the distance.

Hi, looks like the company just upgraded the SC300, new model SC300i. Supposedly more accurate and with more accurate spin rate numbers. Any plans on reviewing the new model in the near future? Thanks!

I had a swing caddie 200 got a swing caddie sc300 but the 200 is more accurate good for irons on the range both not accurate for woods but good enough for us amateur players.

Good video Mr. SG...nice to see you out on the course. How about a review on powered golf caddies...bat caddy, cart tek, etc.

The net setup doesn’t show slice or hook and the sc300 won’t tell you either. Isn’t more important to learn how to hit straight. Matt what do recommend as the best practice environment

i think you should revisit a lot of these affordable launch monitors now that you can compare them to the trackman

hi MrShortGame, thank you for sharing the nice info. I am very interested in the SC 300. Could you please try flop shot to see if that works as well. Thank you very much.

Hi loved the review. I have sc200 however 300 looks like I'll get a better experience. Have you tested the sc300 in the driving net? If so how did it perform?

You need a wireless mic setup my friend! You keep walking back to the camera to talk to us instead of naturally as things happen for you. Thinks for the info and introspective ive been wondering the difference between the two models.

Hey Matt. I believe you get what you pay for. More accurately and more features.

Solid comparison between the two. I think the 300 backs in to spin from the other parameters right? I have a Mevo on the way and it was a tough decision between that and the 300.

Excellent video! Valuable info. Thanks!

Distance is so dependent on spin, especially in the longer clubs. If these monitors don't measure spin, how can they accurately estimate distance other than by using an assumed rate of spin? If they do measure spin why would they not display it. Seems like a major shortcoming to me.

The SC200 is great for shot under 170 yards --- so I would say use it on full shots over 60 yards or more.

The sc200 runs out of batteries quickly I’m not sure about the 300 but I know it has a rechargeable battery which I feel is great and sc200 you can reset your shots recordings accidentally with ease. Which isn’t good how the buttons are set up on the side of it

Thank you for this comparison Matt. Have you personally or have any of your colleagues used/tried out a Skytrak by any chance? Just wondering if it would be a good purchase (next upgrade from these two being compared).

Fantastic comparison/review!

I wonder how accurate this test is. Both units use doppler radar which sends out radio waves and measures the time it takes for the wave to bounce back and also the wave-length. As both units are sending out radio waves simultaneously, I would think that they may interfere with each other. Perhaps they use different frequencies so this is not a problem??

Thanks for this! swayed me to the sc300

The discount code link for the sc300 isn’t working

I Voted for you on RU-vids best golfer hope it meant something !!!

Thanks for the info! Very informative

Awesome golf channel. Thanks man.

Rustic cayon? If it is, it looks so much greener than my last visit there

The trouble with buying all these things is that you start accumulating older equipment. I have the 100 model. I wonder if they take trade-ins? lol

I have the SC300. Have you tried hitting shots in a netted environment ?? Where as there is netting all around. My practice facility has this and the SC300 has problems picking up 3 wood and driver hits correctly, gives low yardage. Does not give the corrrect distance. I did try my SC300 at a golf simulator and everything came out fine.

Hi, thanks for the comparison video. Have you considered the effect of the twin Doppler radar emmiters set side by side? Could they be interfering with each other?

One of these two will be my next purchase(soon). Especially since I just got some new irons. Awesome video!!

Thanks for the review

Little Dave has both!

With the SC200, do you need the remote control to vary the loft angles? If not, how do you change on the unit itself?

Mr short game What do you prefer sc100 or prgr

I would want to calibrate my wedge clock. If a unit can’t do my wedges, I would not be interested

Mevo or sc 300? what would you buy ? if I could afford a trackman I would. or even a GC quad.

Thanks man that really helped

Thanks, but stay away from the white powder

How do I get my app to show a black background as oppose to white?

Can I use "Almost golf balls" hitting into a net with these monitors ?

Thanks mate video helped me appreciate it mate from downunder.

Thank you

Thanks! Is it possible to turn the sound off on the SC300? Or connect to Bluetooth headphones? Thinking that other people on the range won’t love to hear it.

Hey, I purchased SC300 through your discount link, and found that the price in the link is not really discounted, considering that the pouch (worth $50~55) is not included. Disappointed.

Just noticed on the iPhone app it has an option for target. Could you do a quick review of that?

Nice video. Be even better if you had a partner and laser him from where the ball stops and publish distances. Seems NOBODY does this and it would be so easy to accomplish. Thanks

Is it not just an expensive gapping tool? I’d love it if they added swing path and face angle to help groove a swing. Fair comment? Also, any chance of comparing to trackman or gc quad?

Well now I know it works on bad shots, I might get one. Is there nothing about side spin? I mean you don't need it hear but, if you're hittin' in a net.

So the sc200 doesn't have the launch angle ?

great video matt or anybody,does this device measure ball flight too, or just club head speed based on club selection? thanks john

I bet playing with this dude is fun as hell.

Do you have any idea when they will have the Android app available?

I wonder if it works with Birdi Ball?

Thanks for the comparison. One silly question... is that Rustic Canyon, 2nd hole?? :)

Do you play Volvic or Pro V1 balls? Really enjoy your videos and thank you.

Key question is. How many keys did you rip before filming? SLOWWW DOWWNNN bro :)

Have seen the Ernest ESB1 yet?

How does it get apex without knowing spin rate

a possible purchase !...

Neither have ball spin speeds?

I love the info! Your energy gives me anxiety though. Too much coffee lol
