Testing the new Full Swing KIT launch monitor
When Tiger Woods posted a swing video to social media on November 21, GolfWRXers eyes were keenly trained on a piece of equipment — and it wasn’t the club in Woods’ hands. Rather, it was the launch monitor positioned behind the 15-time major champion.
The sleek, compact unit bore the logo of Full Swing, with whom Woods has had a partnership since 2015, but we didn’t have much more information about the device.
Fast forward three weeks, and not only are we able to present the backstory and technical details of the Full Swing KIT launch monitor — but GolfWRX’s Brian Knudson had a chance to demo the unit.
You can check out BK’s testing session below with the full story on Full Swing’s new launch monitor after the jump.
CEO Ryan Dotters, SVP of Sales and Marketing, Jason Fierro chatted with GolfWRX about the new KIT launch monitor. We knew “Tiger Woods helped develop it and continues to use it as his launch monitor” is a pretty powerful marketing gambit — and all the more impressive when considering the unit retails for $3,999 — but we were keen to learn more.
Four years ago, the Full Swing team set out to create an easy-to-use radar-based launch monitor that delivered the full complement of data as units that cost four times as much. In addition to being easy to use and set up, Full Swing wanted the KIT to feature a full-color display on the unit.
In terms of what is actually being displayed, the Full Swing KIT features 16 data points: carry distance, total distance, spin rate, spin axis, face angle, face to path, attack angle, launch angle, ball speed, club speed, smash factor, club path, horizontal angle, apex height, side carry distance, side total distance. Four of your choosing can be displayed on the unit itself with the rest visible within the app.
Additionally, users are able to select the data points are shown on the KIT display, iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, or even spoken aloud/via headphones. The unit also records 4K video and displays in 1080P on the device of a user’s choosing.
Dotters and Fierro told GolfWRX in 2017, the company saw an opportunity for a UI/UX-focused product at a price point far lower than competitor offerings. It was important for the device to be compact, intuitive, easy to use, and for it to look like a high-tech product — and one that didn’t rely on a secondary device.
After three years of development and being told the sub-$5,000 price wasn’t achievable with the data and display features the team wanted, Full Swing finally arrived at the KIT launch monitor — and the KIT launch monitor arrived on Tiger Woods’ Instagram.
For consumers, the Full Swing KIT offers an easy to set up and use, significantly more affordable, fully loaded radar launch monitor (with an indoor mode coming in Q1 2022). For teachers, it brings down the barrier to entry to be able to offer students comprehensive launch monitor data. And for tour pros, well, let’s just say we expect we’ll see quite a few units on PGA Tour ranges once the West Coast swing is underway.

Since our founding in 2005, the bedrock of GolfWRX.com has been the community of passionate and knowledgeable golfers in our forums, and we put endless trust in the opinions of our GolfWRX members — the most knowledgeable community of golfers on the internet. No other group of golfers in the world tests golf clubs as frequently or as extensively, nor is armed with such in-depth information about the latest technology.
Below are the results of GolfWRX member voting for the 2025 best driver, along with the vote percentage for each club.
Best driver of 2025: The top 5
5. Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond: 6.02%
Callaway’s pitch: “For golfers looking for a fast, forgiving, yet workable driver, the Elyte Triple Diamond features a tour-inspired shape and is the preferred model by most Callaway tour players.”
You can read what other golfers are saying about the driver in the GolfWRX forums, and see our launch piece here. Shop the Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond here.
4. Ping G440 Max: 6.86%
Ping’s pitch: “The most forgiving G440 model, MAX has a hotter face to generate speed and distance, and a lighter overall system weight with a longer shaft (46″) for faster clubhead speed, higher launch and longer carries. The Free Hosel and Carbonfly Wrap crown save weight to create our lowest CG ever and increase forgiveness while contributing to a more muted, pleasing sound.”

3. Ping G440 LST: 9.53%
Ping’s pitch: “LST is an especially good fit for faster swings, offering less spin and more control with a penetrating trajectory. A hotter face, lighter overall system weight and longer shaft (46″) deliver more speed and distance while maintaining tight dispersion.”
@phizzy30: “Not a fan of Ping drivers in general, but 440 LST takes the cake. It’s super forgiving across the face for a low spin head, looks and sounds good and the ability to make it play neutral or slightly fade biased through the hosel settings is very appealing.”

2. Titleist GT3: 16.55%
Titleist’s pitch: “The GT3 Driver offers Titleist’s boldest combination of power and personalization through adjustable performance. Dial in the CG Track to your frequent contact location to make your biggest drives even bigger while taking total control over flight and shaping.”
@mrmikeac: “I’ve been Anti-Titleist for years and years and years (outside of Vokey, of course). With that being said, HOLY BEGEEZUS the GT3 driver is an absolute NUCLEAR MONSTER! This thing blew my G430 10K Max out of the water in every single category. Forgiveness is the biggest thing that stands out of me, the 3 model has always been one of the less forgiving models in the past but this GT3 can take bad shot after bad shot and still end up in the fairway, I think a ton of that has to do with the adjustability, it’s actually effective. Feel and sound is perfect, that solid crack is so addicting to hear and when you hit it out the screws this thing can absolutely bomb it. Titleist, I’m sorry for doubting you. You have converted me.”

1. Titleist GT2: 22.91%
Titleist’s pitch: “Delivering impressive distance from any impact point, the Titleist GT2 Driver extracts maximum performance through a forgiving design. Get the stability and added confidence of a high-MOI driver without sacrificing speed.”
@DTorres: “The Titleist GT2 has proven to be the best driver of the year. Packaged in a classic profile, GT2 perfectly balances performance and forgiveness while consistently being a high performer across all categories.”

The lie detector test confirmed that was a lie.

Mevo+ accomplished this feat a little more than a year ago….and for cheaper. Full Swing wants to nickel and dime you to death.

I bought the mevo+ and hated it. This may suck too who knows. I would recommend the GC3 for 7.

Androids worldwide market share is 70 percent of the market, try getting out occasionally and learning something.

Put it against a Trackman and GCQuad to see how accurate it is. That would be the obvious test. But I imagine Full Swing doesn’t want that out there.
Ts
Dec 15, 2021 at 2:36 am
It’s OK, it’s known quite well in the industry that Trackman and the Quad aren’t that accurate either
Nonsense
Dec 19, 2021 at 11:42 am
If by widely accepted you mean used to track metrics during the pga tour telecasts and trusted by almost every single pga tour player on the range. You either have no clue what you’re talking about or work for fullswing.
Karl
Dec 15, 2021 at 6:17 am
Why do you assume trackman and gc quad are so accurate? My neighbor works for one of the major golf OEMs and we take his trackman and my Mevo and compare them …. The Mevo is almost dead nuts on with the trackman
