    Golf Simulators, Info please

    Hello all,

    Sorry to ask a much repeated question, but I have some friends coming in from Toronto.

    Where are the best simulators IN OTTAWA? And why do you feel those are the best ones to play?

    Thx

    If you like putting into a real cup, then Bent Grass in Bells Corners is the place you want to go

    Chez Putters on the QC side, top notch sims, no cup but makes you play breaks and nice graphics too. Cant wait till someone has the dough for an HD sim, or is there one already out there?

    The best realism is either GolfoMax or Chez Putter in Quebec. Bent Grass has pretty pictures, but since the number of pictures that are taken of a course are limited, you can hit invisible items. I've hit more invisible tress playing the sims there, I just have no fun at that facility.
    It could be that the purpose of your life is only to serve as a warning to others.

    I've never played Chez Putter but have played BentGrass & GolfOMax and I prefer GolfOMax. The sims are easy to use, with fairly good graphics and a good selection of courses. All in all it's a good value.
    Don't expect it to be like playing outdoors though, to me it's closer to playing a video game than it is to real golf.

    That is exactly how you have to approach it to get the most enjoyment out of it.
