How to export CSV data from any golf launch monitor

Garmin Approach R10 and R50

1. Open the Garmin Golf app and make sure the session has finished syncing.
2. Tap More, then Golf Sim Sessions.
3. Open the session. Tap the share icon to the right of the shot count.
4. Send it to a cloud drive or email it to yourself.

To grab several at once, long-press one session in the list, then use the ... menu at top right to select all.

Square Golf

Export the session from the Square Golf app. The file opens with two metadata rows (date and location), then a single header row, then one block of shots per club — each block closing with an Average and a Deviation row that aren't shots.

SkyTrak, SkyTrak+, ST MAX

1. Open the SkyTrak app with the unit connected.
2. Go to the Driving Range.
3. Tap History at the top of the screen.
4. Tap Export at top right and choose CSV rather than PDF.

SkyTrak was PDF-only for years and CSV export has broken across app updates before, so if the button does nothing, check whether you're on the current version.

Rapsodo MLM and MLM2PRO

Rapsodo's own FAQ says the app doesn't offer session export in CSV or any similar format, and their support documentation repeats that neither the MLM nor the MLM2PRO allows direct CSV export.

The R-Cloud web portal at golf-cloud.rapsodo.com has advertised spreadsheet export since 2023, but it needs an active paid membership and users report it working inconsistently.

GSPro

Hit shots in the Practice Range, then tap the clipboard icon to export the session as CSV. Windows only.

GSPro is the most useful export in the whole category, because it drives nearly every launch monitor on the market. If your device has poor native export — Rapsodo especially — GSPro is the way around it. Headers are abbreviated: VLA is launch angle, AoA is attack angle, I7 is a 7 iron.

Foresight GC3 / GCQuad and Bushnell Launch Pro

Export the session from FSX. Bushnell's Launch Pro runs on the same Foresight platform, so the GC3, GCQuad, QuadMAX and Launch Pro all produce closely related files.

FlightScope Mevo+ and Mevo Gen2

Export the session from the FS Golf app. FlightScope's column vocabulary is very close to Garmin's — both use names like Carry Deviation Distance and Spin Rate Type — so a tool that reads one usually reads the other.

TrackMan

CSV export lives in TrackMan Performance Studio (TPS), the Windows desktop application, and nowhere else. The TrackMan Golf mobile app and the MyTrackman web portal don't offer it.

In practice this means that if you hit on a TrackMan at a fitting bay or rental studio without your own account, getting the data home in a usable format is very difficult.

E6, E6 Connect and E6 APEX (TruGolf)

1. Sign in at portal.e6golf.com with your E6 player profile.
2. Open the session you want.
3. Select Shot Analysis in the navigation bar and export from there.

E6 supports 19 launch monitors and is the only major simulator platform that runs on iPad, so it's a common export path for people without a gaming PC.

The format quirks that break most tools

These are all real, found by testing parsers against actual export files rather than reading documentation. If you write your own spreadsheet analysis, they will bite you.

1. Garmin ships a hidden character at the start of the file

Garmin CSVs begin with a UTF-8 byte order mark (U+FEFF). It's invisible, and it attaches itself to the first column header — usually Date — so lookups on that column silently never match.

2. The second row is units, not data

Garmin puts field names on line 1 and units on line 2:

Date,Player,Club Name,Club Type,Club Speed,Attack Angle,...
,,,,[mph],[deg],...
5/4/26 10:51:29,,,Pitching Wedge,47.98,-7.36,...

Read naively, line 2 becomes a shot with every value blank. SkyTrak does the same thing with a third band row on top (BALL | FLIGHT | CLUB) and bare units underneath (MPH, DEG, RPM, YD) rather than bracketed ones.

3. Column counts change between sessions on the same device

Across fourteen real Garmin sessions, thirteen had 42 columns and one had 32 — no Player, no Club Name, and Tempo instead of Swing Tempo. The date format changed too. Never read a launch monitor CSV by column position.

4. "Carry Deviation Angle" is not carry distance

It contains the word carry, so a naive column matcher assigns it to carry distance and overwrites your yardages with a bearing in degrees. Nothing looks broken — the numbers are just quietly wrong.

5. Rapsodo files are blocks, not a table

A Rapsodo export repeats a header row for every club, ends each block with an Average summary row, then starts the next club. Read it straight through to the end of the file and those average rows get counted as real shots, inflating every club's sample size.

6. Phantom shots

Garmin logs occasional rows where ball speed and carry are both exactly 0.0. Across 1,796 real shots, 47 of them — about 2.6% — were phantoms. Left in, they drag every club average down.

7. European exports use different separators entirely

Files written on a machine with European regional settings use semicolons as column separators and commas as decimal points. A parser expecting 168.4 reads 168,4 as the number 1,684 — a silent ten-fold error — or splits it into two columns.
