I just installed a jagmanjoe top on my P3Pro and i'm having some issues with heights / sensor readings. basically, with "turf top" and "assume turf contact" selected, I need to set my grass height to 0" to get middle face strikes with my irons off the turf. i would think that the grass height...

Do we have a definitive answer yet on the proper way to get a driver to be read/calibrated? I know many have mentioned reflective tape, but do we have an answer as the best way to tape it? Is it along the bottom? Club face? Along bottom then wrapping up to club face? I've seen others tape the...

Is there an agreed upon temperature light that should be used with Optishot. I can't get a straight answer from the company. Sounds like 5000K is too similar to daylight and 3000K or less is too much IR/too incandescent. Is 4000K ideal? I'm looking to get a warm filter to go over my 5000K LED...

GC2 HMT owners.... Bought the HMT and have question on sticker locations for the clubs... Irons mid point is supposed to be between the 6 and 7th score line per their instructions. That is above my where pattern. Either I am always catching thin and too low or their mid point is too high. ...

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.

Hello all, This is will be my first experience with a simulator and I have decided to go with TruGolf . While I know I did put the cart in front of the horse on my planning I have a very limited space to swing and have already ruffed in my hitting bay before buying my components. Because of the...

I'm thinking of getting the gc2. Two part question. First is when I intergrate the gc2 with the software, when playing on the TGC or protee red chain, do I have to pre select the club I want to use? Or can I just grab any club and the gc2 will read it? And the second question is when the flash...

Hi there, wondering which software to use for teaching ? I have a Gc2 but don't really want to spend the $3800 fsx. Looking for a good driving range application. Thanks

Looking for older software for my Gc2 , would like to use the same software as golf town , something better for teaching , driving ranges and club data . Thanks

I have been researching for years and as they have been pretty expensive I have always been hesitant. I am considering a Full Swing S2 simulator. I was able to test out the S8 however am slightly concerned if I purchase an S2, I'll see a drop off in what I saw in the S8. I am sure there are...

Skytrak or Trugolf?

Hi at all, I´ve bought an P3ProSwing with serial unit and wanted to update the software. But the older units are not longer supported by the manufacturer. So maybe anyone her can send me a downloadlink to the latest version working with the serial unit including the all in one-installer? Would...

Hi guys, I'm new here and have been lurking, reading and absorbing all the info I can. I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a new simulator for the house. Everytime I think I have my mind made up I come across something new that sways my opinion. I went from looking at the optishot to the...

I'm planning on getting a GC2 and letting go the protee sensor mat and the launch camera. But before I do I wanna make sure that the Gc2 can be used with both with protees red chain software and the TGC. I know it works with the TGC. But the TGC does not have a dedicated range feature that the...

Hi all, long time reader, first time poster. I have just purchased a Accusport vector pro with microlense. It is on its way through the Australian postal system. I have been reading up on some of the forums about this LM and would like to ask a question I have not been able to find the...

Hi guys So I've picked up a p3pro and the iron shots seem to be not the best as far as distance control. I tape the irons , and I've played with the smash factor and launch angle. And it seems to be better. My question I guess what other tips on which controls I should be adjusting and not...

I finally have my protee unit set up and pretty much fine tuned, but I'm still having an issue that I want to see if anyone else has. The sensors pick up my irons 95% of the time on the first swing, but my driver, 3 wood, and 5 wood generally require 2-3 swings before a shot is registered. Anyone...

I was just wondering if Bubba or anyone else had the details on this thing? It looks really promising. I was surprised there wasn't a thread already... https://flightscope.com/product/mevo/

Perfect Golf aka Perfect Parallel, is currently an early access Golf Sim Platform. You can buy the game on Steam for $20.00 US or $22.00 CDN. There are currently 14 golf courses and a driving range. The game is expected to go full release soon (rumor is end of February/early March). ...

Wondering what the best software to use , I have perfect golf and seems to work good but wondering if there is something better out now? More accurate? Thanks

Hey Guys, trying to see if I understand how to interpret what is happening between the club face and the swing path based on the numbers I am seeing on the screen of my Skytrac unit. This is only relative to side spin and side angle. Assuming I have 5 degrees of side angle and 1500 rpms of...

I recently added FSX software to my GC2. I am still in the learning phase but I came across one problem I can't seem to fix. I thought I read something somewhere on how to fix it but I can't seem to find it. The dropping balls on the greens are so light I can barely see them. Is there a way...

Has anyone had any experience with the ti.ttle swing analyzer? At $69 for the E6 online included, I couldn't pass up giving it a shot as they already reached their kickstarter goal. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1601126475/tittle-x-the-worlds-first-ultra-affordable-golf-si It's...

Does anybody have any experience with this? Does it work better than the original sensor board? Was considering upgrading but would like to hear a little feedback before I fork out a bunch of cash

Hello I don't know if this is the right place to ask but I would make a question. I tried asking without great success in other place. So I apologise if this has already been asked. I am a owner of a Skytrak unit and believe it's a great and affordable product. My issue is however when I use...

After a lot of research on Golf Simulator Forums I became frustrated. I was looking for an affordable, accurate Golf Simulator system. I was fortunate to stumble upon Custom Design Golf.com. What I like about this site is that it won’t allow you purchase anything online. They contact you and...

Recently bought a used Aboutgolf Simulator from a local virtual sport business that closed. It was complete and in working condition when I bought it.( I tested it out before we dissembled) Got it all down and transported to my house. Aboutgolf will not allow me to hire them for install unless I...

Quick review of the ES16. It now works great with TGC and has club and ball data displayed. Connection is via Bluetooth with the ES16 TGC interface. Works flawless.once connected you need a TGC liscence and your off to the races. Club and ball data are both displayed. The unit requires the...

I'm hoping to buy a Skytrak so I can play TGC with it in my Simulator. I already own TGC sim software and was hoping I can just purchase a Skytrak and set it up with my current software. I have read on Skytrak's website that I would need to: 1. Purchase their Game improvement package for...

Amazing simulator! John Carilli was super helpful in assisting with the design and building. The company will provide you with everything you need to make it look professional. The divot action mat feels much better than a regular mat and was impressed by how good of a simulator you can have for...

As an owner of the amazing HTC (Valve) Vive VR headset, the one game I was hoping would come to VR was The Golf Club....and now it's happening!! 130,000 courses and growing - some of them absolute stunners (including Casa Del Snazzy GC v12, of course) http://store.steampowered.com/app/489600...

Anyone try these two at the same time? I know the software is not compatible, but will they read the same shot without interference?

Where would I purchase a repacement flash module? Not the one for 495 price tag I saw that one on par2pros website, more so the one between 100 and 150 bucks. Thanks

Well as you may have seen in another post I decided to take an opportunity to buy a used Flightscope X2 here in the UK for home use. I had read lots of reviews of various options and decided that when a 3 year old X2 came up for £3500 (roughly US$5000) that it was worth taking the risk compared to...

First time poster. Planning the build out of a simulator in my Garage. I will post my plan and please let me know if there is anything I could do better/ differently. System: Purchased an Optishot 2 for now, want to get a Foresight GC2 in the future. Screen/Net: Here is where I need...

I impulse bought an optishot for my garage build, but now wonder if I should have researched a little more? Nothing against Optishot, I just should have did my research.

I have been reading as many posts as I can. This is a great site. I'll lay out my questions and concerns. I hope anyone can share some wisdom. 1. Space. Garage bay. I have up to 12' width and 14' in height for a depth of 5'. My overall depth is 16'. The ceiling comes down after 5'. 2....

First, a little background...New to golf, been mostly a range rat for the past few months. I hit about 50 balls a day either at the range, or foam balls with a 9-iron in my backyard, so I am improving. I'm setting up the Optishot simulator in my large shed, and while it's not completed, I have...

So my wife and I are building a new house and there will either be space in the basement or the garage to have a hitting station. I can't afford to get into a full sim yet, but would at least like something to do over the winter to not completely lose my swing. I of course am pretty educated on...

Hi, I am hoping someone can offer some guidance. I am considering purchasing a used Accusport Vector or Vector Pro (with MicroLens). I have a mat and net set up in a shaded area outside that doesn't get direct sunlight. As my practice area is outside i will need to pack up the device after I finish...

I am looking to put in a simulator in my basement. The goal is practice and occasional rounds with friends. I have a chance to buy a Trugolf Newport that was purchased in 2011. The price seems good (under 5k) it all is working. I was looking for a starter setup, like Optishot, but I...

Hello, I am in the planning process and am planning to maximize my room and go with a 16ft x 9ft impact screen. As i place markers on the wall the size becomes real. I had planned on going with a BenQ projector but did not see a viable option in my quick searches that will support this...

I bought a Skytrack golf simulator and now getting ready to hang the impact screen and have a question on ball placement. The area in the garage I am installing it is 10.6W x 19L. Which as long as the mat in on the right side I have plenty of room to swing my driver. How important is it that the...

Here is what I know so far after talking to the reps: Will Directly read: Ball Spin Spin Tilt Access Ball Speed Launch Angle Launch Direction Club Head Speed Has 2 Cameras and 4 Doppler Radars. This is done because the ES14 had half as many and had to be tilt adjusted for difference ball...

looking for someone that is using the E 16 see what kind of luck you are having with the software

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...
