The GC2 has a large area to place your ball and hit from. Previous shot data is displayed until you hit again. There are plenty of people who do not mind the shot delay from Skytrak in the slightest. Skytrak users are minimizing the delay as much as possible with USB direct connection and powering it with a killer gaming PC, but there is at least a two and a half second lag that the Skytrak will always have. It just seemed like the delay would to take a lot of the fun out of it for me. Hit the shot… count to 4 Mississippi and then the shot shows up on the screen.

I watched a lot of videos with people playing on a Skytrak and the person would hit the shot and you could get a 3-5 second delay before the ball would show up on the screen. Speed was the first big reason I began leaning towards GC2 over Skytrak.

I know this is partly due to the robustness of the gaming PC we have employed to run the simulator but a speedy system was a high priority for us. The shot displays on the screen super fast. 4 seconds to register and then be delivered to the system. You hit a shot with the GC2 and it takes. The GC2 was way faster with reading shots and displaying them on the screen. I wanted a fast reaction time from time the ball was hit until the time it displayed the shot on the screen. Prices with them were well over $10k and up near $20k, which blew our budget out of the water. I looked briefly at some others like the GCQuad (a higher end GC2 essentially), Flightscope and the Trackman systems but they were the high end launch monitors. When I began my research the Mevo+ was not on the market. If this was the case then I would have looked really hard into the overhead units (Uneekor) as well as the Flightscope systems (especially now the Mevo+) that sat on the ground but back behind the golfer.īeing fine with a ground based system pointed me towards the Skytrak for the best price point the GC2 for the best overall and today I would include the Mevo+ as another entry level priced system. If I had a lefty then the GC2 would have to be moved back and forth on opposite sides of the hitting strip whenever a lefty stepped up to take his shot. The GC2 sits on the ground off to the right and slightly in front of where you place your ball to hit from. Lefty’s were not an issue due to my golf buddy group who would be playing over here. The GC2 sits on the hitting mat, to the right and slightly in front of where you place your ball.Īll of my close golfing friends are right handed and that meant we could set in place the GC2 and not move it. Here are some pictures of our GC2 and shield directly out of the box. The launch monitor I chose for my simulator here at the OTG golf shop.

The Foresight GC2 and it’s ‘big brother’ the GCQuad set the bar for quality when it comes to indoor launch monitors.
