    ? Best sim in town?

    I wanted to get some feedback on what you think the best sim is in town (Ottawa) based upon overall quality vs. price & availability of tee times.

    Your thoughts/comments are greatly appreciated.

    If you do a search on this I believe there are many threads discussing the differences.

    I like Bent Grass in Bells Corners. You actually putt to a hole from 26 differentspots. A to Z. a closeand z far. A little more realistic then putting to a screen.

    Putting is the only thing that is more realistic at Bent Grass, and at GOM you are putting into the screen, at a hole on a green that can have undulations, etc. Putting into the same hole at Bent Grass gets a little mundane because it is the same butt from spot a, b or c every time you have to putt from spot a, b or c. The pictures are pretty, but hitting invisible trees gets to you after a while as well.
    It could be that the purpose of your life is only to serve as a warning to others.

    I find the Full Flite simulators at Pineview are the most realistic. When the detectors are accurate, the ball flight is very realistic. Glen Abbey uses this same simulator for instruction. GoM has always been great, good course selection, and the beer is cheaper than BG ~!

    Actually, they have 5 now. The original two in the bar, plus they've added another 3 in a conference room. The putting sucks, but everything else is excellent.

    Pineview is the best.

    Putting sucks on any simulator. Why bother.
