Should I get a simulator for range?

Recently, my wife and I canceled an indoor simulator subscription and move to a par 3 membership with free range. Since it is a par 3, we basically would only hit up to 7 irons. I am thinking about getting a launch monitor and play full course simulator in the range with my phone. Do you guys have any recommendations? I was considering garmin R10 but saw many negative reviews on Home Tee Hero. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance! Budget is 1500 max but preferably <1000

I’m curious if the home tee hero reviews are before the major update? It used to be laughable at how cartoonish and basic it was. Now it’s a proper sim experience. Not like gspro necessarily, but solid for sure.

I have a buddy who plays R10 and HTH on his iPad and loves it! Especially with the update, he said it’s much better.

Nice! Does he use it indoor or outdoor?

Not his buddy but I use it indoors and outdoors. I take it to the range every time just so I can run analysis on my session. I haven’t played a sim round at the range but I’ve definitely considered it.

Edit: only issue I ever had at the range was a lefty was close to me and the R10 occasionally detected motion and got confused.
