I am going to mount my homemade hitting screen to some 3/4 inch Conduit then use some clips to clip the screen to the rod via the rivets. My struggle is that I need to mount the EMT across my garage and am struggling to find a fitting that allows use to mount EMT to drywall. Anyone have any ideas...

I have a GC2 but don't want to pay the for $5000 HMT just for club head data. I am staying away from analyzes that attach to club shafts as they don't appear to be accurate. Was thinking about purchasing a P3 PRO Swing Analyzer just to to get club head data. Wanted to know how accurate the unit...

Hi All, New here, I just got last week my Skytrak, Carls Premium screen and the Benq projector. I see lot of people here have done this sim setup. Looking for some advice on how to install the screen, and come up with the net and protective curtain? I'm doing this in the garage, about 10.5 feet...

Hello, I am so glad I found this site. I really could use some help. My plans are to buy a P3proswing simulator this week from Par 2 pro. I ordered and just received my Golf Airmesh Impact Screen 9.8 ft x 11.4 ft (3 m x 3.5) from Khamp sports $119. I also went to Joann fabrics and bought on sale 2...

If I bought just the PX2 sensor mat with the 20 courses used my own computer, camera, and bought a screen would I be able to play golf? I am confused about all this. What exactly would I be able to do? Or do I have to by more right to begin with?????? Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello everyone, Can anyone tell me what kind of net is used in front of the projector screen on the Golf Fix program? I would like to put up a net to quiet the impact but still have images projected through the net. Thanks!

It says High Definition Golf will be displaying their NEW Curved Simulator Screens at the PGA Show. It says it will give you a total feeling of immersion. I wonder how different the feeling would be from a traditional flat screen???

Been a long-time lurker, surprised no mention of this new entrant so figured I'd join to inform the only simulator forum on the Internet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pF6HSrdlkD8 Can't tell if it is a radar unit that tracks the club or what. Seems to give distance but no indication if it...

Hey All, I am still working on the online store right now (www.par2pro.com/catalog) but I will be starting up the DIY Sim site soon and need your feedback. Since this will be a site that many of you will be posting on, I would love to hear what you would like to see and be able to do on the...

Hey All, I just got the latest E6 and E6Lite price list from TruGolf and they have reduced all of their prices SIGNIFICANTLY - over 50% in some cases. I am just getting all of the new pricing setup everyone on my website, but you can see all of the new pricing here:...

Is this simply just the ES14 Packed into a driving range divider?

The ES16 Launch Monitor has been announced at $4000 for unit and $300 for software. Really interesting as this is directly compared to Skytrak. Is it work almost $2000 more? Did you think it would have cost that much? (they told us $2500)

Is it me or is there a new firmware update for the GC2? I think there is and has anyone tried it? Remember we had issues with the last update. What are the improvements?

With so much interest in the Dancin' Dogg thread, it's obvious that this forum is long overdue. So here you go. You can now start new threads with questions or info on all the gear etc. Hopefully info will be a bit easier to find in time. Enjoy!

I am undertaking converting an area in my garage into a golf simulator and I'm having trouble deciding on a system given my space and budget constraints. Thought I'd put up a post to get some feedback as the amount of information on this site is overwhelming and there are a lot of knowledgable...

After just 3 months of use I already managed to rip a hole in the impact screen. I was thinking about installing the new impact screen in front of the old one, so basically the old one will act as backing. Good or bad idea? Any thoughts?

This new look is horrible. Very cartoonish.

I'd like to thank bubba22 for stepping up to be our moderator for this forum. It's been getting busier in here and he doesn't miss much of it so I am sure he will be very helpful. Go easy on him please :-) Thanks again bubba and welcome to the Mod Squad!

Does anyone have any News or Links from Optishot or P3ProSwing from PGA Merchandise Show showing any new features they came out with?? I heard about Optishot's new Package and P3ProSwings new online feature, but anything else from either of them? Thanks

Hello all, I recently received a optishot 2 for Christmas. After installing the software and unboxing the unit, I started taking some test swings. I immediately noticed a yardage difference in my real life 7 iron yardage (140) to the in sim yardage (closer to 90 to 100). I scoured this forum...

Does anyone happen to know which courses are included in the new 5-pack they just released?

Hello all - I've been trying to read all of the posts relevant to my setup, but thought I'd ask for opinions. I'm building on to my house and am about 30 days out from completion. I want a launch monitor-based system so I can take the unit to the range also. I've looked at the GC2 at a local...

I'm going to be putting a SIM in the finished basement of the home I'm building this summer. I've spent countless hours reading threads, and I think I've got a couple of options in mind, but I thought I would pick the brains of the experts here. 1. I'm a 10 handicap. My friends are in the...

Hi guys, I'm new here and have been lurking, reading and absorbing all the info I can. I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a new simulator for the house. Everytime I think I have my mind made up I come across something new that sways my opinion. I went from looking at the optishot to the...

Just bought a house with a Full Swing in it. Just ordered a new computer for it and the E6 software. So what I will have is the standard Full Swing sensors with E6. After finding this forum, wondering if that was a good move. Since it had 40+ courses I keep all of them. New to the sim world and...

Hey guys a new place just opened in Montreal with trutrac and E6 2 software. I'm going to check it out. Has anyone tried this Sim ? If so how is it ?

Got my frame and screen up tonight and some astro turf down, also got software loaded and finally got projector running. Got projector mounted on ceiling but can't seem to get image low enough on screen :scratchch. Gonna have to get a longer video cable and also a way to mount projector lower but...

Okay guys, I have read through hundreds of posts on your site and am excited to be a part of it. I'm getting ready to do a simulator in my garage for practice through the winter and rainy days for myself and my daughter. The space I have available is roughly 11hx12wx13d. I'm not sure if I...

Has anyone installed the new software all in one package from p3pro i have tried twice the second time after a full uninstall and it has a lot of errors.The main one being when you complete a putt in the hole it will not advance to the next hole. Also noticed on some holes the ball starts at...

I have been away a bit. I just visited the Foresight Drivers/Download section and noticed two new things.. 1. Foresight Sports Swing Camera 2. Shot Counter Recharge Application I don't know anything about these..can someone shed some light on them? Thanks!

Hey guys, luckily I found this forum. Seems like the only decent forum around that discusses simulators. I just received the DD last week and have a few questions... 1. I have the nike pro combo irons. Do I need reflective tape for the clubs so the sensors can pick up the irons better? 2....

Hello folks, First a little background: I myself am not yet a golfer but have been toying with the idea of getting into it for a few years. My dad who is an avid golfer has been trying to get me hooked for over a decade but I resisted for some unknown reason. This year for Christmas he purchased...

I am looking for any advice I can get regarding the Optishot. I have been playing a few days now and really enjoy it . Putting is a little wierd but it is getting easier to control . The Irons seem to hit good but i am hoving to swing really hard to generate enough power . I dont hit the...

I must say how impressed I am with all the help and info that I see on this forum so far. After taking up this sport in my 50's and golfing for 2 seasons I am now officially hooked, lol. I had already purchased a good mat late last winter so I could swing a little in the off-season into a net. ...
