Forum: Home Simulators - General

Just spoke with the folks at ProTee. They seem to have a great unit that is similair to the GGS unit. The units have a ball sensor and you can put. They are in the process of developing a video launch webcam and video capture as well. Price seems right. I will certainly look into this more. Cory...

I have had a chance to try different irons Muzuno blades/muscle back, Ping G5 and Tour Edge Exotics irons. All have shiny soles but are progressively larger for more game improvement. The 4 iron sole width was Muzuno 3/4 inch, G5 1 inch and Exotics 1 1/4 inch. All clubs had similair offset. With...

The launch cam for Protee has arrived... Just testing the final touches on the Protee cam. It works like a charm. Just what I have been waiting for and it is great. The launch angle is recorded perfectly and the ball speed as well. I am very happy with the software integration with the...

I must say that I am very happy with the Protee bunker play. The ability to setup the bunker penalty is great. I focus on the technique of opening the club, wider open stance and not grounding the club in the sim just like real bunker play. The Fiberbuilt mat is quite good. Its great to practice...

Personal pro golf sim. http://personalprogolf.com/. It essentially is the Holiday Golf sim but in a smaller package to compete with Optishot and P3pro. So another option for lower budget sim. Launch angle cam also available at $800, ouch! 10 courses that are photo based.

In the process of testing a new putting app for iPhone 6. This is not yet published and is in the 2nd phase of testing. You putt and the iPhone measures club speed, ball speed, ball direction, spin and smash factor and calculates distance. Right now it's just with the iPhone 6 or 6 plus and needs a...

hey guys i need a little help here or maybe who knows alot of hrlp, but my problem is I installed optishot on my older desktop to use out in garage with my sim and after i installed it I tried to get updates and it said none where avaiable at this time.....well I am pretty sure that there should...

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.

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.

I am having some trouble with the launch angle on my Trugolf when it comes to the woods. The best drive with my 10.5 driver the launch is 2 degrees. My 3 wood and 5 wood and even the hybrid's are bad. Any ideas which setting to tweak for this? The irons are fine.

What exactly does the update to version 1.5 do? I can't find any readme or list of updates. Anyone know?

Can the GSA software be used with just a launch monitor like the Vector Pro? I'm just trying to get some ideas for a future home renovation and seeing what the options are. I have read quit a bit of these forums and checked out Cory's site but haven't seen anyone ask this.

So guys, I played 3 rds with a buddy at my office yesterday and we had a really good time. As we played there were certain things that would arise and I decided to write them down and ask about them in here. First off we played the black mountain course and I think it is the best course they...

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...

Hello everyone... I am new to the forum and I have a few questions. What kind of reflective tape would work best on OptiShot? I know that DD comes out with updates... so I was wondering if they haves made any software updates to the program itself besides the courses? I am also looking to buy a...

I was looking to purchase the gc2 but, torn on which software to get. They have the budget version where you can get like 5 courses and then they have the full blown that gives you the club fitting software and more courses. Also I read you can use pro tee software with the system is that...

Hi, I am hoping someone can offer some guidance. I am considering purchasing a used Accusport Vector or Vector Pro (with MicroLens). I have a mat and net set up in a shaded area outside that doesn't get direct sunlight. As my practice area is outside i will need to pack up the device after I finish...

I just spent a few hours reading over the DD thread and noticed a very common issue with the optishot is its inability to accurately read woods and the driver. I have been working with my local PGA pro and have had great success with my short game, however we havent been able to really get...

Hi all, great forum here and some excellent postings on different set ups, which I have found very useful. I am in the "design stage' of building my home Sim, and after seeing some great articles here, and on a separate site as well...(for reference: ...

I have a local golf retailer that is going out of business and liquidating their complete aboutGolf range setup. Specifically: Anyone have any experience with these units at home? Anyone know if it can be installed in a location with lower ceilings than the Range setup (ideally a basement with...

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?

I have a budget of about $5000 to spend on a sim which would be in my garage. What I would like it to be is more like the sims at GolfTown. I currently have the optishot which is OK but does not give me accurate numbers. I would like spin #, height of shot, backspin, etc. I take golf lessons...

Hi there, I have just purchased a gc2 and now am deciding which software to use with it ? It's sounding like the tgc software has the best simulation play and graphics but not the best for driving range , but for less then half price then the fsx software. I will charging my simulator out as a...

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

Hi there, wondering which software to use for teaching ? I have a Gc2 but don't really want to spend the $3800 fsx. Looking for a good driving range application. Thanks

Looking for older software for my Gc2 , would like to use the same software as golf town , something better for teaching , driving ranges and club data . Thanks

As many of you may know, I was the Operations Manager at Sports Vision Technology, maker of the P3ProSwing. On 1/3/2019, we had a meeting where the owner announced he was closing the company on 1/25/2019 for good. He did not want any notification to the customer until it was announced there....

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

I just purchased an Optishot 2 and I am getting some inconsistent results with the clubface angle. If I swing at 50-60% of a normal swing, the clubface angle reads very close to square. However, when I increase my swing speed to a normal swing speed (above 75%), the clubface angle is...

Does Skytrak work with limited flight golf balls? If so, what is the impact on accuracy. Thanks. Jeff

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...

Hi Guys, Ok back to the drawing board here, I'm having a new home built and wish to place a golf simulator/home theatre in the basemement, and as such would like to find out what option would be best for me. Knowing that is a very open ended question here is what I'm looking for (and I realize...

I thought I'd start a new thread to discuss the "Best" Protee course, realizing of course that "Best" can be defined in any number of ways.

I'm looking to hire someone to frame and install a screen for me, does anyone have a person I could contact?

Hey Guys, A couple quick question; I'm putting together a unit and I see that a touchscreen is desirable. Why? Do you then have two monitors, the regular one and the touchscreen?

I'm wonder if there might be some suggestions to deal with a problem I'm having. I purchased a screen from Cory and purchased some foam to go around the screen to use as trim. I cut it into 9.5” widths and adhered two way Velcro to the back of the foam, the hook part. I took the female part...

Hello All, I'm struggling with protection for my ceiling. I've put velcro on foam and attached it but after a few days it is coming off. I'm wondering what other options people have? I'm not considering a 10' by 10' net, in the 1' from the ceiling area. Has anyone used netting in such a way?...

New to the forum and I'm in the process of setting up my new simulator. I prefer not to have the black out side walls because I like the clean look of just the screen. I'm a pretty good golfer and I'm not worried about shanking one but i am worried about my friends. That said, how close to the...

Building a new simulator and was wondering if there is a particular distance that i should set up the stance mat from the impact screen? I think i want it as far back as possible but you guys are the experts so I just wanted to get your thoughts.

So i just hooked up my simulator and hit a couple of balls into the net. After every hit the ball leaves a dent the size of a my forearm. is this normal or do i need to pull the screen tighter? It's pretty tight already and just wanted a sanity check. Thanks guys!

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,...

Hey everybody, I'm just now starting to learn about home golf simulators. I'm dying to get one, but I'm not sure where to start. I'm looking to spend around $10k and I don't mind mix and matching different equipment. I'm mostly concerned with the accuracy of the system. I will spend most of my time...

I am wondering if any of you use this combination with the Flightscope X1 and the TruGolf E6 Simulator? The Flightscope is very accurate as far as I know. Would you recommend the E6 Simulator for this? Is the E6 real accurate with the Flightscope? Appreciate all your help.
