I'm a pretty big golfer, running about a 3-5 handicap living in Wisconsin, and I only get to play roughly 15-20 times per year. The price is really tough to beat for a "ready to go" type of bundle set up. The only hang-up was having to get the software for course play, but through Skytrak, that was super simple to set up, and only about $250/year for either the Foresight or Trackman software. Well worth the cost so far. The trickiest part was getting it to line up where I needed it to, but reading some tips and tricks has helped (like where to put the ball compared to the laser, depending on which club you're hitting; this is super important!) I installed everything myself with little to no headaches, but having a second set of hands around would definitely make it easier. The hitting mat is actually really nice too, I was surprised with the responsiveness. Hitting a fat shot - you feel it. Toe-y? Oh yea. The launch monitor, I believe, is about as accurate as it gets. I was skeptical my first few shots, but patience brought truer answers. It is "supposed" to be set up in "network mode", but I feel like you have to have commercial quality internet to get it to connect. I got it connected, but it was extremely buggy that way and would constantly lose signal on 2 Gig internet with a $300 router. Connecting via USB provided by SkyTrak solves that problem and it works really well that way. I elected to get an extension USB connector to connect the launch monitor to my laptop. Don't ask your wife, just buy it. It's an "investment". ;) Read more
Beware of the hitting mat… This is a great simulator, at a very reasonable price. I bought this for my son and I as a Christmas gift. In the last 4 months my son has snapped 3 brand new Calloway shafts hitting off of this mat. Luckily they were a new set of clubs which Calloway still warranty’s. Last trip to Golf Galaxy they asked if they were breaking on the course, or a simulator mat…my son told them all 3 broke on the mat. They said it’s time for a better mat. Read more
It’s taken me a week but I did it . I love it , packages came on dif days but it all showed up . Make sure you have a good laptop that can run SKYTRAK , only thing I changed was projector I didn’t like it would shake when ball hits. Course play cost me $220 for the year . Directions for the screen were great . Not so great for mounting projector . I used polypro foam insulation on floor glued then covered in carpet and glued again . Then all the stuff this package provides on top . I can’t get screen to fit the whole thing I’m getting there . I watched a lot of videos on how to download the software . Then ya go to SKYTRAK clubhouse site and add code provided in email . If you see a video you can do this for $1500 it’s a lie . This is a great price even if you price everything separate it’s very close in cost . My numbers were off at first like 10 yards short . Then I set to greens at 150 and hit same club I would on course and it was accurate . This takes a while to set up and get to where you love it . My advise don’t rush take your time you will love it in the end when you get how you like it . If you need to buy lap top google what laptop you need copy that info and paste in amazon and it will show you the results that meet the requirements. My laptop was $500 and works great . Gaming laptop . If you think your gonna use phone or iPad plan on buying laptop . Read more
Who knows if the system actually monitors balls accurately. Based on the shoddy instructions and no response on tech support I am not hopeful. Issues in no particular order No instructions on how to assemble cover It's not obvious on which orientation corner braces go. Why not both numbers 1 in the back and numbers 2 in front.and the the 10 degree angle makes it strange Unless you have 6 foot arms you need to pre assemble and slide the top support through the cover before assembly no mention of that The bracket for the projector says only mount to ceiling or concrete. There are no bolts to hang it to the channel that comes with the frame. It is not made for the structure apparently. You need to get a set of bolts and nuts to attach to the top No info on connecting the device other than go to website and navigate that which is is more about trying to force you to upgrade before 30 day trial On the plus side the shroud is of very good quality and the screen that actually hangs in front is also robust But given the companies web site experience this is not anything near a first class company and I would recommend choosing others Maybe the quality of the launch monitor will redeem this unit Read more
The media could not be loaded. Couldn’t be happier with this purchase. Prior to putting together, I strongly recommend looking door the little paper with the QR code. Scan it for installation instructions. Makes it much easier to put together. I didn’t see it until after I completed the installation. Very durable and built with quality. Read more
The media could not be loaded. Loving this simulator! Game is getting better and well worth the money! Went together easily. Had it up and running in a couple hours. Hitting mat is good but not great. Upgraded it a bit already and we think it’s something amazing now. Get a few no reads but works well overall. Highly recommended if you can fit it in somewhere. If you use it regularly, you will only get a better game. Read more
