I think my SkyTrak launch monitor is aligned :-)

I think my SkyTrak is aligned properly

;-), but on a more serious note, after breaking ankle and dislocating knee am trying to get golf fit, whilst also with the downtime been watching lots of YouTube videos.

Been trying to square up my swing, more from in to out (was a heavy over the top swinger) and just working on tempo .... hopefully it will continue like this. For Info, this was with my 7 iron (Ben Ross HTX)

Whats the forum distance?

 

[chrisd]

Whats the forum distance?

7 iron has to be 200 yards + 😉😉

Without evidence you mean ;-) .... I am happy with that shot (have to say not all of them fly like that ... YET) ..... just need to grind away in the SIM over the winter ..... and then it will probably look nothing like that when on the course lol

I can hit my lob wedge that far....normally when I only need to hit it 60 yards 🤣😂

 

[albie999]

Just went out and tried with a Pro V1 ... could not quite get the same figures (it's a bit colder today), but got higher spin, and now shorter distance

 

[chrisd]

I am only joking! "Forum distance" is just a myth

Get a grip and let it rip 😖

You have your own simulator? How much was that set up. It is the dream to have one’s own simulator set up in their man cave.

I have really cobbled mine together on such a budget. Got a bargain on the SkyTrak .. a local golf shop was selling it for £1000, so snapped his hand off lol .... .bought the archery net for £100 (10ft x 10ft) .... the mat I got off FB marketplace for £20 (second hand), which the guy then threw in the fibrebuilt hitting mat (not sure he realised what it was - he was a scrappy who had cleared out a refitted driving range). Already had a laptop which was up to the task

Nice. Wish I had a grand to Chuck at a simulator! Archery net is a good idea. I was looking at trampoline nets. Usually you have loads of trampolines being given away for free on gumtree. Would just have to dump the trampoline itself.

I usually would not have a grand at hand, but had just bought a house, and was renting previously .... so when the bond was released .. thought .. pressie time lol

Those spin numbers are scary low for a 7iron

Depends on the 7-iron and also how consistent my swing is. These are Ben Ross HTX game improvement irons ... so not expecting high spin anyway from these, and also the budget ball that I am using

I was looking at doing this. I have 3 driving range mats, and an impact screen already. I haven't hung it yet, as I have only just worked out a good way of doing it. I need to clear some space in my garage too. The Skytrak is the sticking point. 1k is a bargain, 2k hmm. I had the money lined up, but spent it on something else!
