How to Choose Launch Monitors
Decide whether you want a data-only device for practice and fitting, or one with simulator software for full course play. Camera-based units tend to be more accurate at short range indoors; radar units are more flexible about placement and often better suited to outdoor range use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between radar and camera tracking?
Radar units track the ball's flight path from behind or beside it, while camera units capture club and ball data directly at impact. Each has tradeoffs in required space and setup.
Can a launch monitor replace a full simulator?
Some, like SkyTrak+, add simulator software for full virtual course play. Others are data-only and best used for practice or fitting rather than playing rounds.
