New for 2025 – Face Impact Location (FIL) Upgrade

One of the most exciting new upgrades for Mevo Plus in 2025 is the Face Impact Location add-on ($349).

🔍 What does Face Impact Location do?
✔ Tracks EXACTLY where the ball impacts the clubface.
✔ Provides heatmaps of impact consistency (heel, toe, center).
✔ Helps diagnose mishits (heel/toe strikes & high/low face impact).
✔ Integrated into the FS Golf app for real-time analysis.

📊 FIL Tracks Two New Metrics:
1️⃣ Lateral Impact Location (Heel-to-Toe position).
2️⃣ Vertical Impact Location (Low/High strike on the face).

🎯 Why Face Impact Location Matters:
✔ Know why you’re missing the sweet spot – correct mishits faster.
✔ Improve distance & accuracy by optimizing strike location.
✔ Used by pros & coaches for elite-level feedback.

The Face Impact Location (FIL) feature for the Mevo Plus provides precise data on where the ball contacts the clubface during each shot. This information is crucial for golfers aiming to improve consistency and accuracy, as the exact point of impact significantly influences ball flight characteristics.

How FIL Maps the Impact Zone on the Clubface

FIL utilizes advanced radar technology combined with sophisticated algorithms to detect the exact location of impact on the clubface. By analyzing the data collected during the moment of impact, the system determines whether the strike occurred on the toe, heel, center, high, or low on the clubface. This mapping is then visually represented within the FS Golf App, allowing golfers to see a clear depiction of their impact points.

Heatmap Examples & Real-World Applications

In the FS Golf App, FIL provides a heatmap visualization that displays the distribution of impact locations over a practice session. For instance, a concentration of impacts towards the heel may indicate a tendency that needs correction. By reviewing these heatmaps, golfers can identify patterns in their striking and make informed adjustments to their setup, swing path, or equipment.

Additionally, FIL adds two specific data parameters:

• Lateral Impact: Indicates the horizontal position of the impact on the clubface (toe vs. heel).
• Vertical Impact: Shows the vertical position of the impact (high vs. low).

These metrics are invaluable for club fitters and instructors, as they provide deeper insights into a player’s swing dynamics and equipment suitability.

By incorporating FIL data into practice routines, golfers can work towards more centered strikes, leading to improved performance on the course.

Mevo Plus Data in detail

Speeds and Distances on Mevo Plus

Ball Speed in mph

Mevo plus measures ball speed like the majority of launch monitors. Whether you use a monitor that uses radar or high speed cameras, the ball’s speed is calculated by measuring the time it takes to fly between two points. Of course, because the speed is so high and the distances so short, you need very sensitive equipment, which partly explains why launch monitors are the prices they are!

Ball speed is closely related to distance, increasing your ball speed but maintaining control of your swing is a common goal when golfers practice their driver swing in a simulator.

With the game of golf watching closely at the response of the governing bodies to Bryson Deschambeau’s transformation and US Open victory, many are aggressively seeking more distance.

You will achieve faster ball speeds by increasing your clubhead speed and improving your swing to hit the centre of the face more. Mevo Plus is a perfect investment in your game to allow you to achieve these goals. You can also work on achieving consistent distances with your wedges and irons, where consistency beats distance all day long.

Clubhead Speed

Clubhead speed refers to how fast the clubhead is travelling immediately before impact with the ball. Of course, a higher clubhead speed generally equates to more distance but it’s important to look at other parameters that can lead to longer or shorter drives too. To maximise distance you need to consider the quality of the strike and efficiency of energy transfer as well as the angle of attack and dynamic loft of the club face as we discuss below.

Mevo Plus is able to directly measure clubhead speed, which then allows it to combine this data with ball speed numbers and work out a smash factor for each shot.

Smash Factor

Smash factor lets you measure how efficient your ball striking is. How much of the energy you putt into club is getting transferred to moving the ball forwards? Are you wasting any energy or are you maximizing your clubhead speed?

You can calculate Smash Factor by dividing ball speed with clubhead speed. this gives you a ratio. Smash factor is sometimes referred to as Power Transfer Index (PTI).

Mevo Plus directly measures both ball speed and clubhead speed so is able to give a true reading for smash factor. Golf simulator launch monitors that don’t read clubhead speed directly have to find ways to work around this.

Carry Distance, Roll and Total Distance

Mevo Plus measures data parameters such as launch angle, spin rates and of course ball speed, and uses modelling within the software to calculate what the expected distances would be. Mevo Plus then renders the shot in 3D so you can see the shot shape, height and hang time.

Spin Data on Mevo Plus

Back Spin in rpm

Imagine being able to deliberately control the amount of back spin you give to the ball. Watching the ball land past the flag and zip back to the hole on a picturesque par 3 in your home club’s club championship.

You could spend the entire winter practicing for these moments, at home in your simulator with the Mevo Plus.

Achieving an optimum back spin number is also important for maximising the distance and reducing the lateral dispersion of your long game shots too. It’s a core part of a driver custom fitting process.

You may find that you’re struggling with high spin numbers with driver once you have your simulator up and running. My advice here would be to check your setup for any issues and then go get a lesson from a pro to ascertain whether this is a swing issue or that your golf club isn’t right for you.

Spin axis and Side spin in rpm

Side spin is usually your enemy when you are playing golf because it inevitably takes your ball away from its intended target unless you compensate for it when you take aim. 

Side spin occurs when your club face is not square to the club path on impact, either too open or too closed.

While many great golfers hit the ball slightly left to right, or the reverse, they do it in a controlled way, completely intentionally.

Spin axis combines back spin and side spin and shows you the true direction in which the ball is rotating. Thinking of a ball spining backwards and sideways independently of each other is a bit of a falsehood.

Where the Mevo Plus data shows that you are regularly imparting unwanted sidespin on your golf ball, you need to make some adjustments which usually start with the basic fundamentals.

You can use the data in your Mevo Plus golf simulator along with Youtube videos and personalised lessons from your local golf pro to achieve proper alignment, and work towards a golf swing that is repeatable.

Angles of Take off on Mevo Plus

Side Angle (azimuth) in degrees

The side angle is the angle between the actual path of the ball and the intended target line. Side angle is indicative of the clubface not being square to the ball when it is struck.

Side angle is sometimes known as ‘azimuth’ or just ‘side’. It is also sometimes referred to ‘horizontal launch direction’.

A higher side angle coupled with additional side spin in the same direction is likely to lead to your ball finishing well out of position. However if a ball starts with a leftwards side angle and spins back to the right then you have a lovely baby fade!

A bigger side angle will lead to a bigger push or pull depending on whether the ball starts left or right.

Distance Offline

The distance offline is the distance between the ball’s finishing position and the target line. This is related to both side angle and side spin. Distance offline is also referred to as ‘lateral landing’.

I guess the aim is to start the ball offline and draw/fade it back to the target. You want to avoid starting the ball offline and drawing or fading it further off the target line. There are also golfers who start the ball at the target but have to much side spin and slice or hook the ball away from the target.

Golfers also have to factor in wind, weather, terrain and elevation into these calculations. This is what makes golf so fun!

Angle of Attack

Mevo Plus measures angle of attack, which states whether the club is approaching the ball on an upwards or downwards direction. Angle of attack is vital to optimising distance, spin and spin loft, as we discuss above.

Mevo plus has the advantage of including angle of attack in it’s data set, whilst Skytrak does not measure it.

Flight Path, Apex height and hang time on Mevo Plus

Mevo Plus uses all of the data parameters described above, as well as the weather conditions chosen in the settings, to render a 3D flight path for the ball.

This flight path will include an hang time and a maximum (apex) height too.

Mevo Plus Pro Package Additional Data Parameters in Detail

Dynamic Loft

Dynamic loft is the actual loft delivered at impact, differing from the static loft of the club. It determines launch angle and spin rate, affecting how high the ball flies and how much backspin it generates. A higher dynamic loft increases launch and spin, while a lower dynamic loft produces a lower, more penetrating ball flight. Players who struggle with trajectory control often need to refine their shaft lean and angle of attack to optimize dynamic loft.

Club Path

Club path measures the direction the clubhead is moving at impact relative to the target line. A negative value (out-to-in) promotes a fade or slice, while a positive value (in-to-out) encourages a draw or hook. This metric is crucial in diagnosing ball flight tendencies and understanding why shots curve left or right. Combined with face angle data, club path helps explain shot shaping and directional control.

Face-to-Path

Face-to-path is the difference between clubface angle and club path, directly influencing ball curvature. A face closed to the path produces a draw or hook, while a face open to the path causes a fade or slice. A face-to-path value near zero results in a straighter shot. This parameter is critical for understanding ball flight laws and working towards a repeatable, controlled shot shape.

Face-to-Target

Face-to-target measures the absolute angle of the clubface at impact relative to the target line. This determines the initial starting direction of the ball. A clubface pointing right at impact results in a push, while one pointing left creates a pull. Many golfers incorrectly assume club path dictates start direction, but in reality, face angle has a much greater influence, making this metric essential for accuracy.

Vertical Swing Plane

Vertical swing plane represents the steepness or shallowness of the clubhead’s arc throughout the swing. A steeper swing plane (higher values) often leads to higher ball flights and steeper descent angles, while a shallower swing plane (lower values) promotes a more sweeping motion, common in drivers and fairway woods. Understanding this parameter helps golfers refine their angle of attack and trajectory control.

Horizontal Swing Plane

Horizontal swing plane refers to the direction the clubhead is moving horizontally through impact. It provides a broader perspective on swing dynamics, indicating whether the swing is more inside-out or outside-in. A proper horizontal swing plane, paired with correct face control, is crucial for producing consistent shot shapes and minimizing excessive curvature.

Low Point

Low point is the lowest position of the clubhead in the swing arc, measured relative to the ground. In irons and wedges, an ideal low point occurs slightly ahead of the ball, ensuring a crisp downward strike. In contrast, drivers and fairway woods require a shallower low point, often behind the ball, to maximize launch and minimize spin. Tracking low point consistency is a key factor in improving ball-striking quality.

Curve

Curve measures how much and in which direction the ball bends in flight, quantifying the extent of a fade, draw, hook, or slice. A higher curve value means more sidespin-induced movement. This parameter helps players diagnose swing path and face angle issues, as well as fine-tune shot shaping to better control trajectory and land balls in target zones.

In-Depth Chipping Data

Chipping data includes launch angle, spin rate, roll-out, and descent angle, all of which affect distance control and stopping power. A well-struck chip shot should have an optimal launch and spin combination to either check up quickly or roll out to the target. Analyzing chipping data helps golfers fine-tune their landing spots, club selection, and short-game technique.

In-Depth Putting Data

Putting metrics track face angle, path, and impact location, key elements in accuracy and consistency on the greens. Face angle determines initial direction, while putter path affects curvature and stroke efficiency. Additionally, impact location on the putter face can influence speed control and roll quality. Using this data, golfers can eliminate unnecessary stroke compensations and build a repeatable, square impact position.

What data does Mevo Plus Not Measure?

The following data parameters are measured by GCQuad and/or TrackMan 4 but not by Mevo Plus:

• Spin Loft: The angle between the club’s attack angle and dynamic loft, influencing spin rate and launch angle.
• Dynamic Lie: The angle of the club shaft relative to the ground at impact, affecting shot direction and contact quality.
• Impact Height: The vertical point of contact on the clubface, indicating whether the strike was high or low.
• Impact Offset: The horizontal point of contact on the clubface, showing heel or toe strikes.
• Swing Radius: The radius of the swing arc, which can influence swing speed and consistency.
• Low Point Height: The vertical distance of the clubhead at the lowest point of the swing arc relative to the ground.
• Low Point Side: The horizontal distance of the clubhead at the lowest point of the swing arc relative to the target line.
• D-Plane Tilt: The tilt of the plane formed by the clubface and swing path, affecting shot curvature.
• Advanced Putting Data Parameters: Detailed metrics such as putter face angle, path, and skid distance.

These parameters provide deeper insights into swing mechanics and ball flight characteristics, which can be crucial for advanced players and coaches aiming for comprehensive game analysis.
