looking for some one that has experience with the Zelocity pure launch tracker and software

Hello Everyone! Just wanted to thank everyone for their Optishot thread contribution. It was a long thread but well worth the read. There was also some very educational material about various sims that peak my interest. Just wanted a opinions on everyone's setup, especially those that are...

I am looking for yardage map posters for my simulator room. I am looking for Doral, Spyglass, Pebble Beach and Firestone. I have been searching a lot today but had no luck finding anything. Anyone know where to find some?

Has anyone seen this on youtube. Man does that look expensive. Check it out. I am not sure how to post a link. I see that Cory looked at it at the PGA Expo. I would guess that this would cost 70K plus. It has a lot of features and looks good.

Well guys, I bought a used GC2, now I am hoping I can find some software for it. I cant afford $2200 for new software from Foresight. Any help will be appreciated. Really only looking for the fitting portion for indoor practice. Pm me here, thanks again.

http://www.wgt.com/home.aspx I am wondering what kind of graphics this game uses ? It looks like actual photos, extremely lifelike. Why haven't home simulators caught up to this kind of graphics ?

anyone tried wgt? costs a bit but it is very realistic. discuss as you will.

Will Optishot pick up lower trajectory shots on driving range/course if I wanted to practice hitting punch 7/5 irons etc? I'm wondering if this is an acceptable tool to hit shots like this considering it doesn't pick up spin rate or ball flight. What kinds of shots are people able to practice...

Hi all, About to start down the path of home golf! Here's my first question: Will an older launch monitor like a Zelocity Pure Launch, Accusport Vector or Vector X be of any real use? What I'm hoping to accomplish is a similar setup to the indoor place I take my lessons at. They have a...

My son got the TW 2011 wii for xmas (between that and the p3pro he should be scratch in a few weeks) and the graphics are absolutely awesome. Why can't a sim company use graphics like that?

I was waiting for the ES16 to announce pricing, and am now looking at the Skytrak. I heard the reception wasn't too well on the Skytrak. Why? What is it's downsides? I know it has the delay but anything else? Can the delay be shortened? Thanks!

Why I bought the P3ProSwing over Optishot. Tips for you to ponder if you are choosing. First - Fathers day sale date sensitive comment: (probably every year however) This is not an add as I have nothing to do with it or gain nothing But Golfsmith is selling the P3ProSwing for the usual $599 but...

I have a HQ screen and the Par2Pro site says it's made to withstand balls hit repeatedly. Why the need for a backing net? I have a enclosure of 1" emt and thick drapes. The screen is affixed to the drape with Velcro and bungee paracord gives the sides and bottom some nice elasticity.

Who makes the gc2 carry case? Can you fit the protective shield in the case? Any alternative hard cases to use and modify the foam interior? Thanks

I've tried to search the forum on this issue, I can't imagine I'm the only one. I have to hit 3-4 drives with my R11 before the GC2 picks up a hit. No problems with any other club or my son's black Ping driver. Anyone else run into this? Any solutions?

Skytrak or Trugolf?

I'm interested in setting up a system to keep my swing going over the winter. I've got a couple babes on the go so budget is an issue. I'd like to get a basic setup that provides a realistic environment and accurate feedback (in a range setting at first that can be added to over...

Curious to hear if any GC2 users did any ball tests and what golf balls they use to "practice" with. I use ProV1 to play. In my old practice room before GC2 I have buckets of random balls since I was more videoing my swing and didn't see spin or trajectory. Now with the GC2 I find myself...

Which one is best? 1. http://www.par2pro.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=22_53&products_id=159 2. http://www.sportsentertainmentspecialists.com/TruGolfSimulators/signature-golf-simulator.html 3. http://www.aboutgolf.com/products/range-enclosure/

Wondering what the best software to use , I have perfect golf and seems to work good but wondering if there is something better out now? More accurate? Thanks

What's your favourite indoor golf center you've been to?

Just want to start off by saying this is a great forum with a lot of great contributors and information. So thank you for that. So let's say you had an initial budget of $3,000 (and already had a computer, projector, screen, etc.). I am leaning towards the PX2 and then slowly adding on to it...

I'm started a thread for the optishot owners asking what will you like to see new for the Optishot as in hardware/software and features. All inputs will be appreciated...

Guys, Your forum is awesome, there is no other place to get information this in depth anywhere else, thanks for your efforts. Here's my problem: I live in an area that's extremely densely populated. I used to live in an area where I could golf every day, but here that's not possible. It's...

Do I have this right? These are the golf simulators that work with TGC: 1. Protee 2. GC2 with Bluetooth upgrade 3. GC2-A 4. GC2-T 5. Skytrak Any others?

What simulator would you pick for a indoor golf simulator? Which simulator provides the best mix of realism, accuracy, easy of use maintenance, and start up cost? Which software would you select?

I wish to play courses that I created in The Golf Club 2019 with my friends in the garage. I had a P3Proswing but they went out of business. What should I buy? So far Skytrak seems good choice...

I impulse bought an optishot for my garage build, but now wonder if I should have researched a little more? Nothing against Optishot, I just should have did my research.

Hi I'm looking for advice for the best Laptop to run a optishot 2 I am currently getting conflicting information over the Graphics Card. Some say I need a more powerful in dependant card some others say the below spec should work, please can you help... Option 1 £320 HP Amd A8 Processor...

With so many devices on the market which gives you true and accuate club head data???? I know trackman is the holy grail for ballflight data but does it give you accurate club head data? What about Swingbyte and Proswing swing analyzer? What about Protee? What about GC2 HMT The reason I ask is...

I'm in the planning stages of building a new house for me and my family and I want to make a designated area for a golf simulator. If money wasn't an issue, what's the best/most realistic simulator you can get installed in your home, in the US?

We consist of dad, mom(14HI), son 9yrs (loves golf) daughter 7 (dad/mom want her to love golf). We think a simulator will be useful in northwestern ohio. We have a 21' deep by 25' wide by 10'-2" height basement area that is ready for a simulator. Thought we were going with an aboutgolf system,...

What happened to the thread that was pinned to the top with pictures of peoples' set ups? I just received my PX2 and am now scrambling to select other gear and put things together. I received the PX2 from Martin much sooner than anticipated and am not prepared. :-)

I heard that another company was going to take over or something similar to keep it going. Their site is down as well. The ST-1 looked nice. Thanks

I know..look at the flight. How about the numbers..I think .5 or 1 degree right with -150 or so side spin is a draw...please educate me. I am working to remove my over the top swing and think a ball angle coming from the right is good ....meaning I am not coming over the top as much?

If you could have just one direct ball reading parameter (like launch angle, ball direction, ball speed, ball spin) add-on to a club-reading only simulator (like Optishot) what would it be and why?

Can you list them or by if can- Premium Course Collection I- Premium Course Collection II- Gallery Course Collection I- If not just list them! Also is Augusta one of them?

Does anyone know if a sensor exists that measures how effectively you shift your weight during the swing? I had a Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) done a few days ago and the indoor simulator that they used had this capability. It was awesome. I knew I was not very effective at shifting my...

Quick question- do the Optishot and P3Pro (with and without launch software) allow you to use high lofted wedges--- or specifically, multiple wedges with unique lofts (50 degrees, 52, 58, 60, 64). I have a variety of different wedges I might use depending on the course and how I am playing and I...

Disregard request for SKYTRAK Golf simulator as I just purchased the new Mevo + by Flightscope. Thanks Bernbaum :)

So I will have a bay that is 10'H X 12'W X 10'D that will house my impact screen that has top and side blackout curtains already. Should I just paint the walls of the room or use some type of carpeting to cover them? If I use paint does it need to be black or dark? Thanks

I had the chance to spend some time with the folks a Visual Sports http://m.visualsportssys.com/?ref=ht...ortssys.com%2F. I thought it would be a good idea to get an update as to what they ar working on. They have made some good advancements in the golf simulation world with some really nice...

Hi Guys! I got the chance to try the Virtual Golf Sim at a friends house Hotel today. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRuYSeUkM_g I am not that technicaly educated on the hardware of these sims but I think to the side at floor level is a high speed camera. On the ceiling their is what looks like...
