  2. Sticky Thread Sticky: Using a simulator and/or launch monitor to help improve your game.

    Feel free to post your experience on how you used your simulator and/or launch monitor to help improve your swing, scores, overall game, etc... This thread should be a sticky so people can come back and post from time to time so we can perhaps learn from each others experiences.

  1. Question Hybrids and silver paint...

    Hi all, Been browsing here a bit while researching Optishot and P3. Anyway, I've seen notable discussions about silver tape, so I'll ask my question first: 1) Has anyone tried masking and spray painting rather than applying tape? Ok... second question:

  2. Optishot vs. P3Proswing

    Been doing a lot of reading but I keep going back and forth... Online play and graphics aside, just wondering if anyone who has owned and/or used both can provide opinions on which they liked better & why. (though if you have experience with World Dunes I'd love to hear it.) thanks, Andrew

  7. jagmanjoe optishot cover owners and finding a stance mat

    I recently picked up a thicker optishot cover from jagmanjoe, and I'm looking at options for a stance mat. It's pretty thick, I think around 2 1/2 inches total so is there any other options besides buiding the platform with plywood and insulation board?
