Great video, your dead right GSPro is awesome and the discord help is amazing. I made my home course which closed down 3 years ago, I was gutted, now I can play it again, it's just mad, and I'm useless with a computer, the guys on discord were great help. Also Mitch your setup is looking great.
I bought the R10, and it came with E6. After the demo, you are on a limbo on what to do next. They make everything vague and confusing. Thankfully, I stumbled upon GSPro. After I've purchased the GSpro I've finally got an email from E6. Too late Fnuts. I've the GSpro. Which looks so much better.
Hi Mitch, just wanted to thank you for opening my eyes to gspro on Skytrak. I have played a couple of rounds so far and it’s so much better than e6 that I used previously. A couple of things I love other than the graphics and courses is the shot power modifier which I use to negate the impact of using almostgolf balls, and the fact I can get a full round in before my laptop battery dies, with e6 I’d struggle to get to 9 🎉
Just about to pull the trigger on GSPro after a few weeks of adjusting to the sim using the Skytrak software. Thanks for a great insight in to the software. Also COME ON UTD!!!
Hi Mitch, thanks for the video…seems to be very nice and useful to improve the game by playing when you want. A question…to be able to use also the driver how big need to be the room to let you full swing?
Ideal dimensions to use driver would be 3m height and 3.5m width - but it can differ for individuals depending on their swing. This video might give you some better advice What Size Should a Golf Simulator Room Be? ruclips.net/video/tCHAfn9ciP0/видео.html
It’s just a standard putting mat from Amazon something like this www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0789WHQY8/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_P6YMFKXMRVPCJ6J29G1E?linkCode=ml2&tag=mitchynew-21
Great video, I’m planning on building a home sim and just need help with the measurement to the impact screen I have 7.5 feet to where I plan to put it is that enough and how many feet or meters do you have to your screen?
Thanks mate. I have about the same distance to my screen. It depends on which launch monitor you choose to buy. If you buy a radar based launch monitor like Garmin R10, Rapsodo MLM2 or Flightscope Mevo+, you need a minimum of 8ft to your screen (but I would recommend at least 10ft). If you go for a camera based launch monitor like SkyTrak or BLP/GC3 then that will work with only a very small amount of ball flight 👍🏼⛳️
GSPro definitely has one of the best graphics. The only downside I see is that their PC requirements will have you drop another $1000 or so for a gaming computer on top of the $250 a year subscription.
I want GS Pro but I don't look forward to struggling with getting it installed and setup. I've heard that can be a pain and I'm not a computer geek. Is there a simple step by step download and installation for GS Pro with SkyTrak?
I made this video a while ago ruclips.net/video/AGAml-FRxU0/видео.html but the software to download is now outdated I think. If you join the SGT Discord then find the channel named SkyTrak, it has the up to date file downloads and it is very simple to load up 👍🏼⛳️
Thanks for the video. Just purchased a used SkyTrak and I am in the 30 day free period. I was wondering if you purchase GSPro software do you recommend getting the SkyTrak Plan & Improve annual subscription or would the Game Improvement be enough? Thanks in advance.
I have had a golf SIM since 2014 (although started pretty crud in my garage). Over the years I have continued to upgrade the room but am still on Optishot2. It was great but I’m ready to upgrade. I am seriously considering the Skytrak+ but really like what Ive seen with the GS PRO. I’ve heard that while u could get this to run on Skytrak, it does not run on the Skytrak+. Is this true? Should I be looking at other comparable launch monitors like the Bushnell Launch Pro or just go with the Skytrak and either E6 or TGC19?
This is true, at this moment in time GSPro is not compatible with the new SkyTrak+. However, it might not be too far away before somebody creates an app that can link GSPro with the new model SkyTrak. If you can’t afford it, I would go with the Bushnell launch pro, just because I’d trust the accuracy and reliability of that launch model, a little more than the SkyTrak. I would also go with GSPro over the golf club 2019 or E6 Connect. But which ever way you go, I’m sure you will find a massive improvement compared to the optishot!
So I'm thinking of getting a skytrak plus. Can I buy the gs pro software for the year without buying skytraks yearly subscription. Or do I have to get both.
Unfortunately at this moment in time, GSPro does not work with the new SkyTrak+ I believe there is some testing in the works but as of today, you can’t use GSPro with the new SkyTrak model ⛳️
Yes you get GSPro without deleting TGC 2019. Just head to the GSPro website and you can purchase from there. You will need to download a couple of bits of software to connect your SkyTrak to GSPro they can be found on in the description of my video here: ruclips.net/video/AGAml-FRxU0/видео.html. I would also highly recommend joining the SGT Discord group to help with any tips/troubleshooting 👍🏼⛳️
Hi great videos what projector have you got and how do you fill the screen I’ve got a 3m x 3m archery net but I can’t seem to fill it keep up the good work
This is the projector I use: ruclips.net/video/H7NdMJBXsHU/видео.html Easiest way to fill the screen is to place the projector far enough back from the screen that it fills top to bottom (don’t worry about sides). Once you’ve done that then you can adjust the resolution within your graphics card settings to fill up the sides of the screen 👍🏼
Great vid. Definitely going to buy this and hook it up with the Garmin R10. Is there a way to search the course database without yet having the software?
SkyTrak don’t officially support GSPro - it’s a case of someone creating software that connects SkyTrak+ to GSPro via GSPro’s open API. I haven’t heard of anyone creating that yet unfortunately.
I believe someone is tinkering with it and has data going back and forth but last I heard there is still a fair bit of work remaining and loads of testing
Wich golf simulator should you buy. Iam new to this and will start to play golf again. What you need when you will set up a golf simulator. I have the space and can put up a big screen. If you buy a golfsim will thta include launch monitor and everything you need any help would be good. The best graphics etc etc maximum price 20000 us for everything
Hi mate, if you watch this video then it pretty much explains everything you need to buy to build a golf simulator ruclips.net/video/pezIy15h0_o/видео.html. I did mine on a much smaller budget than yours, but it will give you a good idea of what you need. Then if you look through my channel I have tons of videos about the various components and how to choose the best ones suitable for different budgets. I hope it helps! I do offer 1:1 consultations to help building a golf sim if that is something you would be interested in, the link to those is here: calendly.com/hcpgolf/consultation
How can i play gspro on my skytrak, tried getting info from skytrak support but they seem to not be able to give any information because of the lawsuit
GSPro is not officially supported by SkyTrak unfortunately so they won’t give you any information. I set it up using the instructions in this video: ruclips.net/video/AGAml-FRxU0/видео.html it may be out of date now but it is how I did it 👍🏼⛳️
Great video! What are the dimensions of your screen? I just ordered the Carl's place 8'x8' DIY and was wondering if yours is close in comparison? Thanks!
Thanks mate. My screen is raw material and it’s larger than the area I have so I have had to fold it over in some areas. But to answer your question in total it is 2.2m high and 2.2m wide 👍🏼⛳️
@@hcpgolf thank you! So it’s pretty close to the same size I’ll have soon, that’s great it looks awesome in your setup so I can’t wait to hit some balls into it.
Agree mate Gspro Awesome …and great value , hoping pga don’t take too many top courses away ..Sawgrass being one . Plenty of other cool courses however ! ⛳️
4:26 playing a certain island green Par 3.....which I thought was pulled down - must be Mitch proving that he can time travel !! Nothing he can't do :P
@@hcpgolf good to know !! I will definitely look into both very in depth. I love playing pga tour 2k23 on my Xbox which is technically the same software so that’s where my love for tgc is. Do you know if there’s any free trials for either ? I’m currently in bid wars for a used skytrak. Been watching your videos for years and am finally pulling the trigger. Glad to see you can get one for right under $1000 used now since skytrak 2 released
I was exactly the same mate I loved the console game TGC so I loved playing it as a simulator! When I first tried GSPro I was underwhelmed, but since then I can’t stop playing it - I think it’s just more true to real life golf (given it takes into account lie angles, elevation and more realistic rough penalties). Also the updates and new courses being released are really stunning
Pretty sure it's same with Mlm2pro. Doesn't say anything about GS Pro on website etc. But I dont care if I can use it... Who cares if they get money from it or not. Feel like your the guy who tells teacher she forgot to check homework. Calling them so they can make sure to get some charge outta ppl? Or be able to block the "round bouts"... Once you buy it its your who cares what they say about what you use it for....

Hello Mitch, have you heard about the new version of GSPRO? V3? Already public beta?
Yes I’m hoping to make a video on it soon 👍🏼
Second Question - What is the putting mat that you use along with your SkyTrak? It looks like it makes the game even more realistic. TIA.
It’s just a standard putting mat from Amazon something like this www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0789WHQY8/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_P6YMFKXMRVPCJ6J29G1E?linkCode=ml2&tag=mitchynew-21

It can do, but only really if you're after playing on the highest graphics settings ⛳️
Looks brilliant, what does it cost in pound? no doubt we get stung with taxes.
No taxes, just whatever the conversion rate is 👍🏼⛳️
I've had gspro for a year now. I use to play the golf club. I can't tell that there's any effect of the wind on the ball.
I feel like the wind has an effect in GSPro

If you’re just going to use GSPro then you don’t need to get the GIP. If you’d like to use SkyTrak for practice then I’d definitely recommend the GIP
How do you swing a driver in that tight space , nice content by the way...
I didn’t - I could only swing a 6 iron max!

Great video Mitch. Gspro is the leader without a doubt.
Thanks Judd!

You should be able to see all the available courses here: simulatorgolftour.com/courses/ 👍🏼⛳️
Mitch do you know anyone that uses an Apple computer with Parellels with GSPro?
I’m not aware of anyone who does, but I imagine it would likely work 🤷🏻♂️⛳️
Can I use gs pro on my Ballflight simulator
Not at the moment I don’t think 👍🏼⛳️
Any word on when they will support Skytrack+, or is it a problem with the makers of Skytrack+?
SkyTrak don’t officially support GSPro - it’s a case of someone creating software that connects SkyTrak+ to GSPro via GSPro’s open API. I haven’t heard of anyone creating that yet unfortunately.
I believe someone is tinkering with it and has data going back and forth but last I heard there is still a fair bit of work remaining and loads of testing
I honestly can’t believe it’s not supported. The SkyTrak+ is amazing and now I have to go with TGC2019.
It would definitely be nice if SkyTrak officially supported GSPro! Hopefully in the not too distant future there will be a workaround for the ST+ 👍🏼
