Alright...now that the thread is officially closed, who's going to print it and get the official hardcover edition released? It's a long as a stephen king novel!

Hey fellow sim players. I would like to know everyone's Clubhead speed . Mine is SW : 65mph for 90 yards and Driver : 92-102 for 250- 280 yards. Is this below average or average ? I am tweaking my optishot with thicker turf and wondering if my speed is slower ? I think I have to go to golftown...

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,...

1) If you have the specs for your real clubs, inlcuding offset, do you find them to be accuate? If so, post your club specs and settings. 2) If not, what changes and how much did you change the settings to best resemble your actual golf game 3)Any changes that were too extreme or not extreme...

Just curious if anyone has experience with any of these devices. They look very interesting...not sure if they'd be suitable to integrate with simulator software (as an alternative to something like the DD), but I think they're a very interesting option to add on for someone with a camera-based...

I've got a set of Ping Karsten black dots and can't find the specifications for the clubs so that I can personalize my Optishot. Does anyone have any idea where I can find them? I Googled and also visited Ping's website.

I just noticed Cog Hill is now available for purchase.

Hello, finally we are going to set up a commercial installation with TruGolf Sensor Board and Sonic System and e6 Software. Are there any Tips and Tricks you can provide from your experience with Imapct Screens, Software etc. TruGolf gave me some answers on that, but I will get some "open...

Meant to be very short, quick, response. If you are using GSA / redchain courses. Interested in what your computer configuration. build. Benefit more than me for those interested in maxing out redchain / gsa graphics on max graphic settings by only buying what you need and not over...

I ordered 6 yards of Condura Denier 1000 in an effort to attempt creating a new bigger screen. I received it in the mail today. This material is not what I expeceted. It is pretty heavy but not as thick and elastic as my current screen. Should I order another 6 yards to make a dual layer??? Im just...

Just a reminder... A few people recently have requested that a certain discontinued course be shared among users here. Since this constitutes piracy we do not allow such discussions on this forum as outlined in our forum rules Rules & FAQ Please refrain from asking.

Do most or any of the home simulators include angle of attack? What do they use for the ball flight laws?

I'm building a new sim room on my house and it will be 15'W X 21'L X 10'H I'm getting my turf to cover the entire room from ProPuttsystems.com Here is my issue: I want to use some Elite Mats that are 3' L X 20" W to hit off of. I'm a big guy and need firmness under my feet but the turf is not...

Does anyone have a coupon code for west coast netting? I'm getting ready to order and noticed they have an area to enter a discount code, just thought I'd ask around here... Thanks!

HELP!?!? :) I have the Optishot 1 and upgraded to Optishot 2 (using the Mac upgrade too). None of the regular courses show up when I load it. All I have is the driving range and the option to purchase premium course. Anybody have a fix to this?? I have an email in to support, but who knows when...

New to this board - although not new to P3Pro and GSA courses... or more accurately CPG courses. Quite surprised I couldn't find this forum after two years of looking for P3Pro users that I could chat to and discuss the various issues and problems surrounding the P3Pro hardware/software. I...

Hi, I just bought the update to Optishot2, and when I try to make an online account, I keep getting a notice that says there is "An unexpected error" and that optishot is working to fix the problem... Oh, and in the beginning, whenever I open it, it says there are updates, and i click to put in the...

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

Has anyone tried it? Would be curious to hear thoughts as to how it stacks up to the Red Chain offering in terms of graphics, experience and realism.

I haven't seen any in depth reviews of Creative Golf demo without digging through the threads so here's my version. You can download the Creative golf demo from the following link (obtained from par2pro.com website) https://www.hightail.com/download/UW16Q1ZxU1AzMWx4Tk1UQw There's...

Does anyone have any experience with the Custom Design Golf - BentGreen? I need to work on my putting -- and I am looking for some type of indoor solution. My main focus is on 10' and in. Thanks

I just completed a custom bay using E6 software. Now I need to change the default settings in E6 to indicate that the strike distance is 9 feet and the microphones are each 2 feet from the screen (lower mics 8 inches off the floor) per the instructions of TruGolf. But I can't seem to get detailed...

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 :)

Against my better judgement, I've narrowed my decision down to the px5 I think. I live on the west coast and made arrangements to go see martin in Florida and boy was I not impressed. After spending on an extra flight, rental and hotel, He still feels no need to follow up as promised. But I...

Looks like they have a really good deal over at P3ProSwing but it's for the first 5 phone orders only. It's a Claret, Grasstop, and Versa Mat for $999. If anyone has been on the fence about ordering, now may be the time. I was hoping their Cyber Monday special was going to be a deal on the GSA...

I bought a Dancin Dogg simulator a few years back and recently found it in the attic. The problem is that my software is missing. I went to their site and all they had was some new version. I don't need the new version, I just want what I had originally. Does anyone have the original copy that...

Hello Everyone, I am new to this awesome forum and have lurked and reseached a many of nights on a simulator. Yes I am in Florida and have my own local dilemmas from Thunderstorms and the rainy season now (just got rained out last night on golf league-got in 3 holes) to 100+ degree days with...

I know the offset is different- but anyone compare how much different, if any- is each club set choice in respect to forgiveness. In real life- a blade is less forgiving than a thick soled game improvement- is it the same for the DD selection. Also- if I start out with a game improvement set...

I am not looking for a debate on which is a better a product but which is better for me. I am a 20 handicap that slices with the driver 40 percent of the time. Will both systems pick up this slice ? Driver only I see the P3 classic is 599.oo and seems to have the bells and whistles so why...

Has anybody seen or used one of these? Who makes the sensor? http://www.golfindoor.com/golf_simulator_video_multimedia.html

After finding this forum, I find great help and knowledge. I am looking at purchasing my first sim and was wanting a little advise. I am a 6 handicap, and I am looking for a sim that can help me improve my swing. I would probably use the driving range more than the simulated courses. ...

Do we have a definitive answer yet on the proper way to get a driver to be read/calibrated? I know many have mentioned reflective tape, but do we have an answer as the best way to tape it? Is it along the bottom? Club face? Along bottom then wrapping up to club face? I've seen others tape the...

Hello, Brand spanking new to the forum and I'm starting off with a question thread. I am looking at buying a house, currently living in an apt, and one of the things I really want to do is to make up a "Man Cave" basement complete with an indoor simulator. I'm wondering what the dimensions...

Hi folks - new to the forum. I am getting close to pulling the trigger on a GC2. I will need to buy a seperate PC to operate it with. I am looking to buy it online, but not sure what specific requirments i need to meet when i purchase the PC. Thanks!

I was curious as it comes to software or getting updates on the optishot, are there and downfalls of buying a system used? Apears you can get it for about 100 dollars off on some units that are used but when it comes to registering your product anyone ever run into any issues?

What is the correct or optimal distance to place the Sim from the screen i have a 10 foot ceiling

I'm looking for a minimal distance between hitting net and wall so that the ball does not bounce off of the wall. Didn't find a specific thread, some mention 12"-15" for an impact screen. Any hints?
