Yardage on my 6I?

Thumbnail gallery
Upvotes

I noticed there was a big distance gap when I hit normalize on the trackman app. I was using hitting at a 5Iron golf simulator, so indoors with half decent balls if that matters.

does anyone know which of these is accurate? one seems optimistic, but I do have about a 110 driver club head speed.

Sim / Launch Monitor Upgrade time r50 or Square omni

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

I have decided it’s time to upgrade my golf sim. I currently have a gc2 (no hmt)which I connect to my laptop running GSpro. I find it a bit annoying getting going, take my laptop to the room get GC2 turned on, projector turned on, GSpro turned on then use the link by software.

I have also been wanting club data for a long time so looking for a monitor that has that.

I really only use the range and practice stuff in golf sims I’m not that into playing sim rounds of golf as I would prefer to just go play. When I’m in my sim it’s about working on some swing improvements or failing in something I’m struggling my with.

With that in mind I was pretty interested in the garmin r50.

What I like about it is it’s all in 1 unit,so u wouldn’t need to use my laptop and should be much quicker to get up and runnng each session (don’t have to turn on laptop and GSpro takes ages to open, so that would be avoided).

I noticed that the square omni came out and it is a lot cheaper and I am just wondering if it’s worth paying the extra for the r50, just to avoid having to use my laptop.
In terms of what these two are capable of is there any other differences apart from the all in 1 nature of the Garmin? (which is quite attractive, just not sure if it’s worth the $ difference or not).

Thanks for any input of the differences.

More expensive overhead monitor or cheaper monitor for floor and range sessions

Upvotes

I am trying to decide between the older uneekor QED and the Uneekor EYE mini for my at-home simulator.
I know someone that is getting rid of their old Uneekor QED monitor and they will sell it to me for $1900.
Is that deal good enough to keep me from purchasing a refurbished eye mini for $2500?
Reasons for QED:
I am left handed and EVERYONE else is right handed. So the overhead version will keep me from having to move the monitor each time. (Not a big deal, but less of a chance of damaging the monitor when just messing around)
Less expensive of the two options
Above head angle for video review
Reasons for eye mini:
Newer software/hardware
Able to take to range

I am leaning towards the QED but I am
Unsure if I would be missing out on the new tech in the eye. I’ve done my research and it seems like they give the same data points.
I am a little overwhelmed with the research so I’m wondering if you guys know something or have real-life examples of why one is better than the other. Or can I not go wrong with either??
I also understand that there is a chance of lower quality in both since they are both used. Just trying to get some fresh opinions.
Thanks in advance. Hope this wasn’t too much to read.

What to do with my Sig10 enclosure?

5 Upvotes

I have a Sig10 golf enclosure that I purchased about a year ago and use in my basement. It has the grey premium screen, side netting, landing pad, and sigpro softy 4x10 mat. I also have an mlm2pro with ipad. I dont currently have a projector. We are probably going to finish the basement soon, and there won't be space for it anymore. So, I'm wondering what to do as an alternative. Some options:

  1. Sell it on Facebook marketplace (probably at a loss) and buy an outdoor net instead.

  2. Move it to my garage. I'd prefer not to do this as it would force us to move both cars outside. Also the garage is not climate controlled so not an ideal place to play.

  3. Try to use it outside in my lawn. It's not designed for outdoor use, but I was wondering if anyone had tried using it outdoors with a tarp or other cover. I could either keep it outside and cover it when not in use or move it back inside temporarily. It would come inside permanently during the winter.

I'm leaning towards option 1. I think an outdoor net is my best option but was curious if there is any way to save my Sig10. I live in central Pennsylvania. Thanks

I just assembled the 8x10 GoSports enclosure. Now I need to cut my turf to the right size. How much turf should I put under the enclosure before I get to my hitting mat? I’m going to be using the Square Omni (eventually).

Garage set up

I was actively reading this site a couple of years ago when I built out my simulator. Unfortunately I didn’t get to use it much as a lot of family health issues over last couple of years. I’m
Looking to potentially sell some of what I had purchased. I had a cimarron net infused to have outside that I moved into my garage. I bought 118 impact screen, original Skytrak launch monitor, and optoma GT1080HDRx projector (plus mount). I am now moving and need to sell these (my son took the computer to game). I’m not sure what’s best alternative-I have to think shipping for anything other than launch monitor or projector is almost impossible. I’m
Located in RI if anyone wants this stuff Which is priced to sell. DM if interested
