I shoot high 80s to low 90s but feel I'm just on the verge of breaking into the 70s if I could add some consistency to my swing. I'd also like to learn how to properly hit a draw or fade, on purpose, and controlled lol. I'm relatively new to this niche, but from what I've gathered the protee at...

OK...I am an idiot and have been hit in the face with a golf ball off a screen..not too fun I have been using almost golf balls, brush t and real golf balls. With my 60 degree wedge I get launch angle of 45 or so with the brush t (plastic but hard) and real golf balls. The almost golf...

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. ...

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...

Hello all, I am in the market for a golf simulator and have tried to digest all the information on this forum but still have many questions. I know this is common but I am hoping that some of you can provide viable opinions on the best system for me and my budget/needs. Budget: 4k (note -...

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 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...

So many choices...I am looking at the Champions but the Tours and Fantasy package looks good to...opinions?

Figured I'd start a thread for postings on any upcoming GSA Golf updates (not sure what the software is called for P3Pro...P3P Golf??). Here's a cool enhancement they've made for the PC game software that will be ported over to GSA Golf. It seems like a minor thing, but it will add a lot to the...

I just wanted to post a general comment about the quality of Golftek support - it really should be factored into buying decisions. I have an issue with my device and spoke to the guys there about it. Talking to them is a real pleasure - they're incredibly helpful, and so easy to talk to. They...

In one of the threads someone mentioned that DD had taken Augusta (er...Georgia Peach) off their website. It sounds like Augusta is on the legal warpath - I found out from Martin at GGS today that Augusta threatened to sue them for their replication of the course, so it is now off of the GGS...

Hello all, I am new to the forum. Recently I purchased Optishot. At first I thought it was fun, with good graphics and courses, but noticed erratic results, so I started checking its accuracy. I have found clubface angle measurement to be a complete joke. Swinging at low speed so I can...

P3ProSwing has some refurbished simulators for for $499.00 plus shipping. Below is a listing for the simulator. Would you go Optishot or this route? Would like your thoughts on which way to go because of the free courses you get with optishot, compared to the expense of getting courses for the...

Is this basically the Optishot? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Unex-Advanced-Golf-Simulator-/271032563743?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f1accb81f#ht_2065wt_922 Any takers? Interesting!!!!!

Hello from Norway Are there anyone in this forum using the PX5 who can give me some help? I've been using the PX5 for almost 2 years now, and (after a lot of help from Martin :)) it works really good. One problem is unsolved thow. All shots are being detected as outside in. - when moving the...

Looking at what I'd be spending on a home sim config, here's the two options I'm considering... option 1 - GC2 + the net return sim series + projector = $14k option 2 - p3pro + the net return sim series + projector = $4k What a massive difference. I don't have any plans to use the GC2...

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. :)

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...

The New Flightscope T-box simulator that was Introduced just at the PGA Merchandise Show, and a video was put up by it.- Is there any info online about or the price? Might go by a different name? Thanks!

Hi I am in the process of trying to make my own golf simulator in the garage and was wondering what most people are doing for golf matts?:listen: Any input would be appreciated.

How many of you guys are hitting down on your turf and how many are picking the ball ? What turf is good for hitting down ?

Been looking at all the mixed reviews on both and trying to decide what would best suite my needs. I want something that I can Fit clubs off And also something that won't break and isn't junk. Which mat is sturdy and tough enough Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you Robert

I have a HQ screen and the Par2Pro site says it's made to withstand balls hit repeatedly. Why the need for a backing net? I have a enclosure of 1" emt and thick drapes. The screen is affixed to the drape with Velcro and bungee paracord gives the sides and bottom some nice elasticity.

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...

What does this competitive comparison chart mean? Is this useful at all? http://www.p3proswing.com/accessory/P3ProSwing-Golf-Simulator-Sale.htm

Thanks to JS1010 it is very easy to add voice recognition to your golf simulator. All you need to do is get the program downloaded (GlovePIE (link was posted in GGS/GSA Simulator page 6)). You have to click on the using green power to get to the download and just do the one with E Motiv 043. ...

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 am looking to setup a sim in my garage, ~10 ft ceilings, but I am amazed by the sheer volume of options available. I would greatly appreciate some guidance as I try to navigate this decision making process. At this point I am looking at a sensor unit, mat and net and would love to balance...

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....

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...
