Which Ernest Sports launch monitor should I buy?
If you want measured numbers on a screen with no phone, start with the ESB1 at $199.99. If you want the portable version — palm-size and cart-mountable — the ESB2 at $495. For indoor simulation, the Tour Plus 2.0 drives E6 Connect.
Do Ernest Sports launch monitors need a subscription?
No — the ESB1 and ESB2 display their numbers on the device with no subscription and no account. The free ES Range app adds session history; an optional AI swing-analysis add-on is available at $8.99 per month. E6 Connect simulation is licensed separately.
How accurate are Ernest Sports launch monitors?
Across the range, Ernest Sports publishes ball speed typically within about 1% in its own testing. Launch angle, spin and distances are estimated from the measured ball and club speed rather than sensed directly.
Where are Ernest Sports products made?
Ernest Sports products are built in the USA. The company was founded in Georgia and brought the ES12 to market in January 2012.
How much space do I need behind the ball?
Four to six feet of clearance directly behind the ball, facing down the target line.
What warranty comes with an Ernest Sports product?
Every product carries a one year manufacturer warranty covering manufacturing defects when purchased directly from Ernest Sports or an authorised distributor.
Can I return a launch monitor?
Ernest Sports offers a 30 day return period. Returns require a Return Authorisation number issued in advance by calling 855-354-4653. Unopened product may be subject to a 15% restocking fee.
