Forum: Home Simulators - General

Working on the final stages of my optishot simulator setup. I have made two hitting surfaces, one for lefties and one for righties. I have 1 friend that will be playing occasionally and he's a lefty. I will be simply moving the optishot sensor pad for the time being when he is playing. My question...

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...

(Delete thread, sorry )

How many of you guys are actually putting with your Optishot setup? Would love to see pics of your setup! I'm considering building a stance platform to fit the entire cage opening for my basement sim.

Curious who out there plays with the distance boost on? If you do, what do you have it set at? Seems like I need it at about 1.05 for my shorter irons to be accurate but then my long irons and woods go farther than real life. Thanks!

If you could have just one direct ball reading parameter (like launch angle, ball direction, ball speed, ball spin) add-on to a club-reading only simulator (like Optishot) what would it be and why?

Hi guys, I'm after a bit of advice, if you would be so kind. I'm Thinking of buying a simulator mainly to groove my swing and to hopefully bring my handicap down (26). I want a simulator that I can also use with video analysis software that I can use to record my swings from the front...

Hey all, First off, I'm a 5 handicap and am new when it comes to all the types of simulators and launch monitors out there. I've been looking around extensively the past week or so on a simulator/launch monitor to put in my basement. Not looking for something overly expensive and am keeping to...

Firstly - Hi folks! I've just signed up to the forum as I'm having a bit of a dilemma. I've got a double car garage and have been considering putting a golf simulator in for about 2 years now. Finally I've decided to go with it, but am unsure on which way to go. I'm in Scotland, and have a...

Hi golfers, I am a golf lover who is thinking of riding indoor golf center here in Barcelona, ​​Spain . In my country there is no a center of these characteristics , probably because we have a wonderful climate that allows us to play on golf courses throughout the year . But nevertheless , I...

I was looking over some of the golf packages and compared the differences between these two. This is summarizing it up- P3ProSwing ProXCS Package Sensor Unit Premium Grass Top Surface Upgrade Golf Swing Analyzer software Video Capture Software 43 Premium Courses

Hi, i'm looking to buy a home golf simulator and i want to spend about 3K. Is the P3 pro swing a good choice and where can i try one near Montréal? Thanks

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!

I've dialed in quite a few of my settings for my P3, and I'm pretty happy with how it's performing. One thing I'm interested in improving is the putting... I have my putter taped, but I'm just not enjoying putting at the moment. I know this is probably about the hardest thing to replicate on a...

I have a GC2 but don't want to pay the for $5000 HMT just for club head data. I am staying away from analyzes that attach to club shafts as they don't appear to be accurate. Was thinking about purchasing a P3 PRO Swing Analyzer just to to get club head data. Wanted to know how accurate the unit...

I only have the "basic" pack at this time, and I'm interested in grabbing one of the other large course packs. First - how are these courses provided? USB stick via snail mail? Digital download? I'd be much more inclined to buy a pack right now if I could have it to play over the weekend...

Saw this on Martin's site: November 11 2014 Possible massive GSA Golf course software price increase and E6 exclusive It has come to our knowledge that the supplier of the GSA Golf Courses software has been acquired by another rival golf simulator company. At present we are not...

I just got room to setup my P3 Proswing for the first time in a few years. Being out of the loop for a couple of years, I was excited to see that P3 had made some advancements very recently. I was also sort of discouraged to see so many have moved on from their P3s. Ball Spin - The 48 hour...

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...

Question. Can you and how do you integrate a golf simulation software like a E6 (or cheaper variant) with a launch monitor (i.e. SKYTrak) to play a round of golf beside just driving balls down range during winter? Any suggestions and advice. Thanks

I just ordered a GC2 w/HMT , and Im also looking at Protee Option to play TGC. Just wondering do they offer a demo of the software to use with he GC2? Its a $2k purchase, and I like to see if I like it first... Thanks Sprigs

From ProTee: #1 The Golf Club Simulator - Coming Soon... Today, 07:38 PM NEWS UPDATE - EXPECTED RELEASE DATE NOVEMBER 24, 2014 THE GOLF CLUB SIMULATOR

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...

I have been away a bit. I just visited the Foresight Drivers/Download section and noticed two new things.. 1. Foresight Sports Swing Camera 2. Shot Counter Recharge Application I don't know anything about these..can someone shed some light on them? Thanks!

Hello all, The information and pictures provided in this forum are much appreciated. I'm planning to build a hitting bay in a single car garage. Ideally the net will be retractable, perhaps attached to a track so that it can be pulled away when not in use. My intention is to use SkyTrak when...

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...

Came across the site while doing research on golf launch monitors. I've truly enjoyed all of the wonderful information gleaned from all the posts. I'm building my own hitting studio this fall and am anxiously awaiting the Skytrak release before purchasing my monitor. If Skytrak falls short...

For all thoes who wished GSA didn't drop the PX series simulators i just saw thqt they have brought it back and is for sale!

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?

hi everyone,could you assist me in choosing a laptop to run my optishot,maybe share what laptops you guys use,and what performance you get...i want it to run as sharp and clear as i can. many thanks for viewing .

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...

Building a new simulator and need help choosing a projector. I'll start by saying I am not tech savy and I've tried the Projector Calculator Website and I'm still confused. I am using the ProTee system with a 14x10 impact screen, I'd prefer to set the projector overhead and I have up to 25 feet...

Hi everybody, I ran into a problem where the FSS now crashes the computer on startup yesterday and have been unable to run it since. Foreisight looks to have removed the software updates from thier website for the FSS software, so I'm curious what the latest version is and if anybody has a link...

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'm started a thread for the optishot owners asking what will you like to see new for the Optishot as in hardware/software and features. All inputs will be appreciated...
