Launch monitor room??? Not sure what you are asking, but launch monitors are pieces of equipment that start at around 2 G's.

If you really want to buy one.... here you go. http://www.golfsmith.com/products/247511

Not just the radar equipment like shown above... I mean with the simulator with overhead screen where you can see the ball going and a software..... Is there a package for-sale??

Unless you are very, very well off..... you dont have that kind of money.

But is this what you are talking about???? If so.... Fullswing Golf makes a great simulator, and they are a steal at around $60,000.00. You can pick one up off E-bay used for $15,000.00 http://www.fullswinggolf.com/

The Video Projector is only around $1500, screen $1000, vector pro $3000. It adds up to around $5500, I can build this my self....

BTW, is there a cheaper device to measure Swing Speed, Launch Angle and Ball Carry? I have seen Speed Radar which $99, but that device is too simple and does not have protective cover.

How About this Golf Simulator??? Anyone has it?

Haven't seen one myself but from what I've heard from young PGA apprentices they say the thing is pretty realistic. However, there is one minor problem with that particular device. Its not as sturdy as it could be and you need to buy new parts for it regularly from them being worn down.

That's why I got the "Real World Golf" system. http://www.realworldgolf2007.com/improveyourgame.php Not as realistic (2007 version is supposedly a big jump in realism) but I still have the chance to hit my own clubs and a real ball. Only problem are the wires that are used to track the position of your hands. In most of the reviews that I read they said that they were not particularly noticeable. I beg to differ. http://arstechnica.com/reviews/games/gametrak.ars

I got a zelocity pure contact launch monitor and it is the best value out there. It measures ball speed and carry distance for only $300 It is small enough to carry in a golf bag and there is no need for a fancy set up or software

    • The term I hear most often is "double teeing" which means the course/club has starting times from both the #1 and #10 tee.  I have encountered this many times and we know if we are the first group off #10, we may well get to #1 and have to wait because there are groups still with tee times yet to tee of #1.  In most instances, where the course/club has a starter, he normally explains this situation.  In this case, the pro advised what you would could/would encounter making the turn to #1.  And, that is exactly what happened.  Probably would have been wise to talk to the pro after playing back 9 and ask when you could go off #1 since apparently that club does not double tee.   Regardless, the outburst towards the other group was uncalled for.  And, I don't blame the member for being upset.  As a member of a private club, you are responsible for the actions of your guest.  I have played many times as a guest in the UK and I am pretty damn sure my host was responsible for my actions while at the club.  I know at the clubs I have belonged to here in the US, that is the way it is.  As a matter of fact, the member may find himself being brought before management and facing possible suspension.  So, I don't blame him for being upset.  However, as the host, he really should have stepped up and put a stop to the OP's actions.  OP makes this statement "I now understand that standards are different on the "private course." But I'll take those lessons to the muni, too."  No, the standards are not different.  You, sir, seem to be just a bit hard headed and belligerent, even if you are college professor...which possibly explains a lot.   JMHO
    • Day 32: worked for about 10 minutes on my drill. Filmed it as well for a check in. I think it’s slightly better but still seeing some issues. 
    • Day 44 (26 Dec 25)  -  played in the Friday men’s shootout with a twist - used the Toney Penna persimmons and MacGregor blades - had a blast playing these clubs.  They really help in zoning in on making solid ball contact.  Scoring was solid - had several looks at birdie and had a few par saves.  Overall a day of focused course management. 
    • Day 2: 2025.12.27 Eighteen holes at Kauri Cliffs. Focusing on trying to keep flex in right leg during backswing.
    • Day 136 12-26 Had a different practice planned today but life happened. Worked on "wide to wide" and still working on remaining flowy. Starting the club head in front of the ball as a drill, is helping with the flow of the swing.
