Ernest Sports ES12 and ES14 Golf Launch Monitors

The Ernest Sports ES12 and ES14 are two of our most affordable launch monitors. Now while these may be “cheap” in terms of the cost associated with other launch monitors for sale, it’s important the net return pro series golf simulator screen to note that you are not sacrificing performance.

Both units more than hold their own compared to similar launch monitors such as the Swing Caddie SC200.

The ES12 and ES14 are both doppler-based launch monitors, that require to see the ball travel after impact in order to measure club head speed and ball speed, the two components of smash factor.

Using those two measurements, these affordable launch monitors then calculate other key metrics such as carry distance, total distance, and spin rate.

There are a couple of differences between the ES12 and ES14:

Price (ES12 is $199.99 vs. ES14 is $495.00)
Dopplers (ES12 has one doppler facing front vs. ES14 has two dopplers; one in the front and one in the back)
Accuracy (ES14 is slightly more accurate than the ES12)


If the goal is to stay under $500 and we had our choice, we would go with the Ernest Sports ES14 Launch Monitor. The addition of a doppler in the back allows for club head speed to be captured, allowing for more accurate results.
