The ES Tour Plus was relaunched in 2021 and is a high-end device featuring premium technology for golfers and professionals with the highest standards, all at a fair price. It is slightly larger than the B1 and is therefore best suited for stationary use. It is particularly well-suited for advanced training or fitting sessions and for home golf simulators.

After a lot of research, I decided to go with the ES Tour Plus a month ago, and I don’t regret it. The measurement results are really good—I was actually surprised by how good they were. It does a great job of displaying all the curves, whether it’s a draw or a fade; it’s really fun.
I'm deducting one star for the initial setup. You can't just unbox the device and get started right away. There are a few things to keep in mind, and you should read through the instructions and tips, as previous reviewers have already mentioned. What’s great, though, is that the store sends you an email with all the tips and videos to ensure a smooth start. I’d add half a star for that, but I can only give whole stars here. Too bad :-)
This thing really makes training fun, and I'm thinking about getting a golf game soon and taking on Augusta National :-). I'm already itching to play.

I’ve had the ES Tour Plus for a year now and I’m happy with it. I recently splurged on the TGC software and have been playing through all the famous PGA courses ever since—Augusta, Sawgrass, etc. It’s a ton of fun, especially when the tournament is happening at the same time and airing on TV.
Every now and then a shot isn’t recorded, which is because the TP is a bit sensitive and you need to be a little patient with the technology. But it delivers very good data in return—much better than the competition. BTW, with competitors using pure camera systems, it happens even more often that a ball isn’t recognized.
For the price, you get a very good simulator that is also continuously improved through updates. Half a point deducted for the sensitivity.

I’ve recently started using my device. Assembly, installation, and pairing can be completed as golf rangefinder by golf rangefinder . It’s important to note that Windows 10 is a requirement; it didn’t work on Windows 7. Everything was exactly as described in the booklet.
Ball detection works as described by the previous reviewer; the logo should be clear and straight—the ES16 doesn’t recognize Callaway, Crane, and a few others, so I had to sort those out.
Even the free app, with its wealth of information, helped me right from the start and gave me new ideas. In my opinion, the price-performance ratio is good, especially for golf rangefinder. In any case, I’m very satisfied.

I recently had the chance to compare the ES16 Tour Plus with a Trackman and was very surprised by how good the ES is. The metrics and ball flight from the ES seemed more realistic to me. In terms of feel, the fade, draw, and distance were spot on, whereas with the Trackman they weren’t quite right. Maybe a setting wasn’t right there—we don’t know. Still, you have to consider the €15,000 price difference.
One thing to keep in mind is the camera. It’s sensitive, so you should use balls with a logo. Then it works great.
Another thing that’s a lot of fun is playing on the best courses in the world. We played TGC, and it works great with the ES. Every now and then you have to repeat a shot because the ball wasn’t detected, but that happens with every monitor.
