Hey all,
My mate just brought a "Launchpad tour" Golf simulater/launch mointer. I was VERY suprised how accurate the launch mointer softwear is! I tried heaps of different clubs all giving me the resualts i would get on a course. I also shaped the ball and read all the shots as it should!

Has anybody else tried these? What did you think of them? Im thinking of buying one of these now instead of my Vector pro. (just because of the price and how accurate ive found this other launch mointer)

Hi,

I have the Launchpad Tour and have found it reasonably accurate when using either the tethered ball or by using a real ball hitting into a net. The biggest selling point for me was the fact that it can be used outdoors. I believe that most if not all the other simulators (Optishot, P3Pro etc..) whilst possibly being more accurate, require indoor use under specific lighting conditions. If indoor space to swing a club is an issue as it was for me, then all the more expensive simulators, however accurate they may be, are rendered useless.

One problem I do have is that when using a practice ball rather than than a real ball, the shots do not register correctly when using Tiger Woods '08. I have played about with various setting (Difficulty settings withing LPDR, Golfer Settings, e,g advanced, novice etc.. within Tiger Woods 08) but have not found the correct combination to allow using a practice ball a viable option. The LPDR software seems to register the shots OK but the same shot in Tiger Woods '08 will sometimes match the LPDR software but other times will be way out). I know there may be other options regarding mouse sensitivity that I can set but as yet have not found the answer. If anyone has had any success using a practice ball with Launchpad Tour then please let me know what setting you have used.

Regards

      First Season With Blades - Let's Discuss

      By tomfig · Posted

      I’d go with the Titleist if you liked the look of the blades but were suffering with distance. They should be a little more forgiving than a full blade and still retain some workability. Also remember to consider the shafts each have as this will be a big contributor to how they feel. Clemsonfan is right though… get fit or spend a bit of time on a launch monitor 🤙

      My Swing (Tomfig)

      By tomfig · Posted

      Hi All my New Year’s resolution was to start playing golf again. I’ve caught the bug and am really enjoying hitting balls at a couple of my local ranges.looking forward to getting back out on courses in the spring. Based in the UK and 38 years old, I’ve been playing since I was a kid. Best handicap I’ve held is 2 in my mid 20s. Over the past 10 years I’ve played once or twice a year, sometimes with friends or for work. Could shoot 4-5 over, but just as easily shoot 15-20 over. I’ve moved to South Wales and am very lucky to be near some world class links courses, which gives me even more motivation to get playing again! I will start looking for a local coach in my area when I have more time to invest, but I recalled scouring this forum a few years ago and finding some good tips and advice so wanted to give it a try to see if there were any glaring issues I could fix in the meantime!  A few swings below… one from 1st week Jan and one from today. I have fixed my P1 takeaway to my liking and am now working on what I see as pretty severe early extension & hip thrust. Also terrible hip rotation. I’d like confirmation that this is indeed a problem and and suggestions on a few good drills. Thanks for reading 🙂 I've been Playing Golf for: 30+ years My current handicap index or average score is: 10ish over My typical ball flight is: mid The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: push right with irons, hooks and push with driver!  Videos:
