Forum: Home Simulators - General

Hey guys, has anyone tried the ST-1 simulator ? how does it compare to the others ?

Anyone else have this yet and is it any better then the p3pro? Cory I have read your review, just wondering if anyone else had this and their opinions.

I would like to set up a simulator for my house. I think the GSA suits my needs i would like to know where would be a good starting point i already have Mats Projector and computer. They have a 699.00 price point but would like to have good equipment purchasing an item here or thier as i need it...

Hello Everyone, I want to start by saying thanks for all the info that has been posted. I want to get a sim to get going indoors. I have done a lot of reading, but still a little confused. I will start with what I have, and what I know. I will initially be setting up in my garage. I have a laptop...

3 Versions so far published. I plan on doing different/harder pin locations, but it won't be right away! Stonebridge GC - Ottawa(Tour) Elongated in places for console gaming. Stonebridge GC - Ottawa(Black - A - ProTee) 6450 Yards. Stonebridge GC - Ottawa(Blue - A - ProTee)

I rarely see a thread where people tell their success stories with improving their game. My set up is near complete so I have put 3 hours a day of practice time instead of 4 hours planning my next upgrade to my set up or troubleshooting issues. Lets get to the point, 10 minutes ago a dream of...

I bought the SC100 for less than $200. It directly reads Club Head and Ball Speed. It displays: Club Head Speed, Ball Speed, Smash Factor and Carry Distance. Hitting real balls outside shows great results distance-wise. SO I got to test it directly against the GC2 today at Golf Smith. ...

Does anyone have experience integrating Swing Catalyst with their GC2? Looking at their dual camera system. Curious to talk with someone with experience. Thanks.

The GC2 is going well. My question is does anyone have a good list of suggested distances and launch angles for each club? I think this data would be very helpful for us simulator folks out there..how do you know you are on track as you use the simulator to teach yourself? I think distance,...

I went into golf town and was surprised at swing speed. They have the gc2 without hmt. Just wondering how accurate this number is. I'm thinking of buying the gc2 so I wanted to try it out first. Was really fun hitting balls with this unit.

Did anyone try this radar out- http://www.amazon.com/Sports-Sensors-Swing-Speed-Radar/dp/B00124P7SI/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top How accurate and consistent was it? Thanks!!

Just announced is Swingbyte 2.0! Here is a video- http://vimeo.com/57813905 (at the end they show the redesigned Swingbyte and new app) The story is here- http://www.thegolfwire.com/stories/278082 BIG News is the "Intelligent Target Recognition". It now uses video (camera from...

I have just purchased the optishot and installed the software. I have a bright green light and the rest are light red on my swing pad but it doesn't read my swings. I went straight to the driving range and tried TESTING FUNCTIONALITY BEFORE USE option (6 iron) in the FAQs section but no luck. I...

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...

SwingProfile Video Capture Software Cory posted video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFV-adI3Rc8&feature=related I'm buying as long as yon can use a real club instead of that ps3 move controller style thing!! Like the idea commentators will use on TV to say why Tiger mi**** a shot? ...

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...

Hi A quick technical question. Does anyone know anything about the flight formula which are used in golf simulators to work out the ball flight? I have come across a number of formulas to calculate the ball flight based on initial launch conditions (e.g launch angle/velocity/direction and...

I found some tees online for the p3proswing that has a round tip that supposedly will not fly out of the rubber tee holder. I cant find the link again. Anyone familiar with this product and were to order them?

Hey guys, recently set up the SkyTrak with THE GOLF CLUB and need some help. Read through lots of post here and other places but did not find answers. 1. Lots of no reads on putts. How do I turn on auto putting just to speed things up? 2. Distances way off on clubs. Is there a boost...

Hi guys, A quick question that I couldn't find an answer to yet. Is it possible to control the game's (camera view) field of view while playing? In the videos I've seen, the in game golfer/ball is always centered in a projected image. Unfortunately, I don't have enough room to center...

FYI, You can now purchase TGC for skytrak.

Trying to get more info on the real courses on TGC. I reviewed website TGCTours.com but this lists the courses for PC based, PlayStation,etc. Is there a list of all courses ( with categories real, us open courses, new etc) for simulator golf? Also is their a user manual available on line for...

If anyone has any pictures of the course, I'd be interested in seeing them. I'm working on designing Stonebridge. I've played it very few times, and have some friends consulting me on the finer points of the course. I have no problems laying out the course yardage wise thanks to bluegolf. But I'm...

Here's a fringe question: How difficult would it be to make The Golf Club software compatible with Optishot? (Just fantasizing)

Version 2.5 now available Online players out there will love the HUGE multiplayer speed improvement. For the best performance set TURN ORDER ANIMATION to NONE. New Harvest Theme Added 15,000+ New Golf Courses Metric Display Added to Settings Fixed Green Speed for All Courses Fixed Fairway...

Does this mean that we could play their software with a Foresight GC2? I really hope so! http://thegolfclubgame.com/

As an owner of the amazing HTC (Valve) Vive VR headset, the one game I was hoping would come to VR was The Golf Club....and now it's happening!! 130,000 courses and growing - some of them absolute stunners (including Casa Del Snazzy GC v12, of course) http://store.steampowered.com/app/489600...

I noticed that swingsense has the Golf club for $995.00 on their website. I contacted Foresight sports and they said that I would need to pay a $999.00 SDK fee to use third party software. I haven't heard of anybody who had the protee & golf club doing this. I'm just looking for more options...

Back to an old topic, I was wrong on the new GSA courses being free. There's now a section on their software page that has the 14 new courses released this year as a $200 package. Still not a bad deal, but not as good as free. :)

Has anyone received any news about a release of an Old Course for DD? I hoped to see an email concerning, but I guess not. -DBS

All: I LOVE this forum! I've been thinking about putting a simulator in my basement for several years now and I've just gotten really serious in the last 6-8 weeks (probably itching from no golf since October!). I wish I would have found this forum earlier! The forum has given me a lot of...

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...

hi im thinking of purchasing the DD optishot simulator but have a few q's for you guys. 1-can i use just my computer or do i need a screen/tv ? 2-if i do get a TV, can i use HDMI to connect? Would my computer have to be connected to the display? 3-is another pad/hitting mat required to stand...

All I did was post this youtube video, and they permanently banned me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbGrBp8idJM

Hi, Firstly, let me thank members like bubba, rdh, zmax and mmlincon for your commitment to this forum. Your wealth of knowledge is invaluable and you guys have really helped me to start to understand this technology. I was hoping to hear what you guys think about what sim to buy for under...

I have been researching for years and as they have been pretty expensive I have always been hesitant. I am considering a Full Swing S2 simulator. I was able to test out the S8 however am slightly concerned if I purchase an S2, I'll see a drop off in what I saw in the S8. I am sure there are...

Hello, I was just wondering if anyone who uses their Sim to play the TW08 courses has managed to change the view to more of a "Sim view" (e.g. from 10 or so yards into the ball flight) rather than seeing the player from behind. I have managed to do it by changing the cameras and pressing the...

Just an interesting note. I tried to open the interface for the Tiger Woods game 08 on my windows 7 computer in the past and it would not compute the swing as it never was compatible but by right clicking on the icon for the interface and then properties-compatibility- then check the run in xp...
