Forum: Home Simulators - General

Hi, Just about to buy a used Flightscope X2, there appears to be three different Apps available in the Apple App store, these being Flightscope, X2 Skills and VX2. It is not really very obvious what the difference is between the three of them, especially Flightscope and VX2 which look very...

Hi all, greetings from the UK, I am new to the simulator discussions, but I am jumping in with both feet tomorrow (literally) and buying a second hand Flightscope X2 and a Full E6 (86 course) package. I don't know the guy I am buying it from, is there anything I should be looking out for in...

i hope that noone has answered this and if you have i am sorry , i have found a few sites stating that the e6 with be compatable with the flightscope xi model when the 1.6v comes out this month can anyone confirm this?

Anyone have any experience with this doppler radar system? I am looking at the Xi+ and the Skytrak. I understand the space needed for indoor use of a doppler radar system. I am debating between both so anyone with experience and feedback would be appreciated. Cheers,

I'm wanting to put the short throw projector on the floor similar to what the golf simulator guys or trugolf uses to protect the projector. Has anyone built an enclosure with fans and plexiglass?

Good morning to all! I wanted to throw a question out there. Is anyone using a floor projector box (I guess similar to the Trugolf Prestiege series) in your home simulator? I can see a few benefits from this type of setup, but am not sure of the drawbacks, other than the obvious worry of ball...

I have the P3Pro and need to buy a few more balls are the almost golf balls on ebay a suitable replacement for the foam balls that came with the unit...

Hey All, Wow, so this was a bit of a shocker for me this morning as I have worked with both companies for a while now... You can check out the press release here: http://www.golfsimulatornews.com/?p=129 I will be talking with the guys later this week to get all the details.

Bubba22 got to play on a Foregolf simulator the other day and was kind enough to share his findings with me. Foregolf is basically a North America distributor for Sportscoach. Both use the same hardware/cameras and the GPS simulation software. The complete system with enclosure and installation...

Pre-payers check your email. For the rest i guess you can go to foresight's website to see what new. Got a course catalog in the email but not sure if they posted it in the website yet.

This is a review for FSX that was released on 6 March. The latest FSX has added the 'play' component, which is the course simulator and made some major upgrades / bug fixes to the previously released 'fit' and 'compete' module. As a summary, in case you are not interested in reading the rest...

This is my own personal opinions on Ver 2 of FSX by Foresight which was released sometime in Feb 2016. FSX system requirements are as follows: Operating System: Windows 7 or greater (64 Bit Required) Processor Speed: I5 or greater Memory: 8GB system memory 16GB if using the swing analysis...

I have the performance fitting app for the GC2. Why doesn't it give you an option to switch it to lefty. When a lefty is swinging, the data is extremely confusing to read especially since they don't reverse the club face (I have HMT). Like for instance, the display can say the swing is...

Greetings everyone! I am brand new to this forum and registered because this place is an incredible source of advice and resources. Recently bought a used Foresight GC2A to mainly use out on the range to dial club distances during practice sessions. The purchase did include FR+1 simulation...

Other than the GC2 being cheaper what are the big differences between these two? Is one more accurate than the other, or is the simulation software substantially better in one of them?

I haven't seen any reviews about the Foresight Performance Fitting App yet so i thought i'll give my own opinion. Condensed version: If you don't have a sim software, and already have an ipad. Get it for $50. Longer version: Just got my GC2 and decided to wait for the new FSX. (See on...

Please, someone tried Foresight Performance Software on Windows 8? I bought a new MacPro that does not support Windows7 ...:irked:

I just noticed on the Foresight Sports web-site that they have information regarding their new software. Looks interesting....

So I will start this thread in pure hope that FS get their act together and enable online play.

Looking at purchasing a course package and would like people's opinion on which one is preferred. Already have the fitting plus 5 package, but would like one that has a good mix of recognizable/fun courses and is basically the best bang for the buck. Wish it were not so pricey, but it seems that...

Ok, got the GC2 two days ago, but ordered the new FSX software, and i just got news that it won't be released until 5/15. Downloaded a demo version of Creative 3d which lets you toy around with a few things it offers. I want to wait for the FSX software, but im curious, is there software for the...

It has come to my attention that users here may need a reminder that we have rules of conduct on this forum. Personal Attacks and Arguing - The Number 1 Rule While debating and discussion is the purpose of this board, we will not tolerate rudeness, insulting posts, personal attacks or purposeless...

As you probably noticed we have split the forum into 2 sections today. General and Hardware. Please start new threads in the appropriate section. Thanks.

When I go to the range, I hit 1 ball to different targets. Sometime I hit 2-3 until I hit a good one, then go to another target. I never pump 30 shots at the same target, lots and lots of research shows that does no good. So when I use my GC2, why am I limited to either dropping a ball on the...

I have the chance to pick up a used FSG S8 commercial for 9,000.00 it's 6 years old but I don't think it got much use. Is this a good deal? What do you guys think.

Yes, this is a review of the alpha version, not the full release or beta version... alpha. (I hope its alpha, i don't know what the developers are calling it) With that introduction, i hope you're expecting a bare bones kind of simulator because as currently released thats exactly what it is...

I have several courses and in general like them. I don't think the graphics are even close to the Golf Club, but the courses look nice. However, when I do a fly by they stutter or now show a black sky with a moon on the screen. I think I have the minimum requirements exceeded by a lot and only...

I ran across a 10 year old Full Swing Golf Simulator Running Links LS 1999 software for sale and I was wondering if anybody has had any experience with these or any thoughts on how much it would be worth? Obviously the newer models are tens of thousands of dollars, but I’ve never seen one this old...

I'm putting a simulator in my new home and have set aside a 18x17x10 room and am down to the two sim providers above primarily based on their sales team and experience hitting on the fullswing system. Spending a ton of time demo'ing the various systems unfortunately isn't an option. I don't...

Just a tidbit that was announced today... As you know, GSA Golf and these other packages all run on the Red Chain software engine. That engine was used for a PC game version (typical mouse swing / click) called CustomPlay golf. The software never really took of and never got a retail release....

Hi All, Thought I would create a thread to get feedback on whether using a simulator has improved your actual game. Has your handicap reduced as a direct result of using your simulator? If so, which part of your game has improved (e.g Driving, Long Irons, Chipping, Putting etc..)? Indeed, has...

I have an awesome set-up in my basement, but unfortunately I am unable to hit any club longer than a 5-wood because of a low ceiling. :grumpy: The weakest club in my bag is my driver - so I am planning to set something up in my garage so I can practice. I am thinking I want some type of impact...

Hi all, I am looking into getting a mat, net and launch monitor for the garage this winter. My goal is to find a net that can be easily setup and removed after practice so the car can make it back inside. Would appreciate any suggestions from folks with a similar setup. Darn Canadian...

Hello all, I'm looking to set up a system in my garage, primarily for practice. I currently don't need a full sim setup (no projector or courses needed), however I did want to have the ability to track basic numbers to ensure that I'm hitting the ball in the right direction. Any...

I'm a little torn... don't really want to pay for the FR+1 SW when FRX is right around the corner (and then pay nearly $1k for the upgrade). An obvious solution is to wait to get my GC2 + FRX, but I'd rather not wait. Any ideas? Is the iPad app enough to get by until FRX comes out? Would...

I understand that one of the down-side to the GC2 is that if you are playing with another play who swings the other way, you are going to need to move the unit between shots. Has anyone done this with the GC2? Is it a real pain? Are there wires involved or is it wireless?

(Delete thread, sorry )

Looking for some help on alignment for my GC2, it appears that the alignment is way to the right of the screen when i set my GC2 up, is this normal? Maybe it just takes some time to get used to it?

What is at TGC delay between the stroke and the reactions computer? I'd like to buy TGC, but using bluetooth with GC2 has delayed uncomfortably long! Does anyone know if u ProTee not work on USB driver?

Hey guys, have you noticed a big drop in distance with the weather being so cold? I have my setup outside in the garage. I guess I didn't pay attention before? But last night it was -10 c and I was hitting some really short shots? I guess it might make sense because it's is using ball data and...
