Forum: Home Simulators - General

Hi, I just bought a Protee System and i wondered if you choose an Iron #5 when you hit an hybrid #5 or you did create an new club sets with hybrids ? P.S. Sorry for my english, i'm a french speaking person.

Is there a practice (not a real golf ball for driving ranges) golf ball that is NOT made of foam that feels more like a real golf ball? I know of the normal ones like Almost Golf balls. Any help would be great! Throw em at me ;)

Hello Everyone, I'm building a new house with 10" ceilings (ICF construction), and I'm wondering about the dimensions required for a golf simulator, width and length as well as how many feet the screen would be from the wall, distance of hitting area to screen, as well as distance of the...

Just wondering if trugolf sells their sensor pads and software seperate so you could build your own enclosure to your liking?

Not sure if this has been discussed but I would like to learn more about potentially creating/modifying golf holes using software tools. I was thinking that perhaps Red Chain had some capability? Thx

i recently purchased a p3proswing from a guy that said it was brand new. i got home installed the software to my laptop. everytime i try to hit off mat it either says checksum error, serial error, or nothing at at all. getting very discouraged cause i paid $500 dollars for this and really was...

Hey guys, My impact screen is showing signs off wear and tear (small scuff marks) I thinks its from older non-smooth balls spinning and basically acting like sandpaper on my 100% thick polyester fabric ??? Has anyone else had this problem before ? I was thinking about reinforcing just the hitting...

Happy New Year everyone. Hope 2013 brings better hardware, better software and happiness to all simmers!!:cheers

I upgrade my firmware and the simulation software today and now I can't get everything to work. I can get it to work on my computer screen, but when I send it to my projector I am unable to click on any of the icons. I am able to move my mouse onto an option - such as practice, but when I click...

Anyone following the Perfect parallel Blog? http://www.perfectparallel.com/blog/ Our scores are going to go to **** what with every one trying to hit it in the bunker because they are so good and trying to hit the tee markers to hear the different sounds!!

Just got the Optishot for xmas and wanted to ask about readings when setting are for no ball and i don't take a divot on the mat. I swing just above the tee area sometimes just brushing the mat. Since it is on the 'no ball' setting, does this translate to a higher or lower than real swing speed?...

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all current and potential simmers out there! May we hit them straighter and farther next year and hopefully lower our handicaps.

Their website is here- www.swingtip.com I like that it's easier to align with the "hole" guide. You don't need to select individual clubs, just general irons or woods for it to work. Has sweet spot detection on club face. Has shaft lean detection. It doesn't look like it says carry...

Just wondering if anyone has heard a sniff in regards to what's happening with this software? It's Christmas and no word yet?

Is it worth the $20? Is it any good and/or have more info than the GC2 screen? Wanting to have more info at the range like clubfitting/gaps, graphic info, shot history per club etc. without bringing a laptop to the range. I did look on Foresights page and in Google Play. As for Foresights page,...

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.

Hello, I read a post where one should set the tee height to account for an aftermarket hitting mat. Where are those settings found? I did a search... Thanks, Steve

What simulators are made in the USA? I just saw on P3's website they are made here. I wonder if that means assembled or the entire unit? That is awesome thou!

Just wanted to thank Ottawa golf for hosting this forum and for TA845 for starting it a couple of years ago. It has helped many sim wannabes (including me) make their dream come true. Here's too many more posts!!

New to forum but been reading a ton for last month. Need help for my basement simulator. Room is 18ft by 27ft. Size not an issue. All my friends are right handed. I talked to Cory at par2pro and he is very helpful no doubt and I plan on buYing from him. Question is which is best for my...

I have an old set of clubs and painted the bottom of the driver with cheap black spray paint, applied reflective tape strip, then covered the strip with scotch tape. This worked great but the paint and reflective strip wear out sooner than I hoped. I would like to permanently seal if possible....

Has anyone tried or seen the "position track" for the GC2? I am considering one or I might just try and build something. Thanks Should be Custom Design Golf :)

Thinking about building a bonus room above my garage. This room would be about 24x20 feet. It would be built for the sole purpose of having an indoor golf simulation room. You guys here have WAY more knowledge than me when it comes to simulators. I have spent several hours reading thru the...

I really hate to get rid of it because it's a great system, but where I live it's HOTTT year freaking round.. It's in the 80s today. I insulated my walls in the garage and added a window unit, but I just can't keep it cool enough to enjoy using the sim. Even gone so far as to think of...

Let hear some ideas on how to build a golf simulator and the skills needed. Hardware, software, components, IR emitters/detectors, LA cameras, Design, math, Ball flight, programming, interface, courses, GSA, etc..etc..anything that we might need or want. I have a background in electronics and...

Hey all... First time poster, and really wanted to get some feedback from some of you that have really seen various golf simulators. My Dad is ready to buy a golf simulator. Space and price is not an issue. He is one who hates to buy something that doesn't have it all. If he is really going to...

Simple question really Does the online play work? Is there anyone ever on it?

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

If you go to the P3Proswing's website they put up a message that says "P3ProSwing chosen as World Dunes Technology Partner". These guys must think we are fools. First off, World Dunes is their own brand. It's their new online golf play forum (which still uses the RedChain courses and the...

I wanted to start a new thread so that it does not get mixed up with old threads and the issues there were. I have had a bit of a chance to look at the new 4.4 ver and see how the ball reacts and what was or was not working. - LA issues with swing speed seem to be fixed. Actually has an area...

Does anyone know aboutGolf prices, not just there full systems, but parts, can u buy just a camera/sensor and the software, then build the rest yourself, they're like nazis, i've emailed a bunch of peole from aboutGolf and not even 1 reply, weird.

First off I was going to ask a week ago if there was a special golf camera product that could simply simply tape your swing and then play it back to you Automatically after each shot. A MUST have tool for all golfers. Then I heard about SwingProfile and heard it might do just that! Here's...

Thought I would start a thread on what's more important to the average golfer, club data or ball data given both beign accurate. Understanding that the gold standard is having both but if one had to chose, which would be prefered? This certainly is a debate which would be different for clubfitters,...

First, sorry if this is the wrong forum. So, after reading as much as I can, I am as lost on where to start or what to look for than I have ever been. Things I know: 1. Camera based simulators are a lot better than sensor based. 2. Ball data is good if you want to see where the ball...

Fellow GC2 Users --- I need some help... I was using my GC2 a few days ago and it suddenly stopped registering my shots. I would hit the ball and nothing would happen. I turned in on and off and tried it without the software and still no luck. I figured my flash was burnt out. So today I got...
