Really fun for the backyard

Super fun experience, the ability to 'play' courses you know is pretty unique. Setup can be a little hairy but once you've got it dialed in it's super easy to make repeatable, and without question worth the money.
Owned the device for approximately two weeks, don’t have an actual indoor setup yet, so using a net and hitting mat at first. Had a good bit of trouble with it not picking up shots so researched and found examples of people trying different options but almost all had a grass mat in front of the hitting mat. I bought turf to use for now and placing the net 7’ in front, the simulator 7’ behind, it is now tracking 95% of the shots reliably. There are still a few misses but 3 out of 35+ isn’t too bad. Also recommend getting the stabilizing stand to ensure the device is level.
Decided to go with Awesome Golf right now, bought the lifetime membership and use the range stats often. I have a 9.5 GHIN right now, and found that it really helped me understand a number of things I was struggling to figure out. Playing today, I had a 13 shot improvement on the same course I butchered a couple days ago; maybe luck but I took the work from the simulator sessions to the course and loved the results, even had distance improvements. I plan to learn more about the stats and how they can improve my game further, and we’re already researching what it will take to build a full indoor setup with the screen and projector. We’ll consider the e6 app once we have that in place so we can play courses I may never get to play in real life.
have only owned about a week, but can get away from it, i loveing hitting the ball, then trying to guess how far i hit it.. so much fun.. there is so much info for such a small device as i really learn how to use it this will be so helpful..
Purchased this device a little more than a month ago. Very useful when I am on the range. Along with the app, I have data that can be used to look at my golf swing.
Never thought I could have a golf simulator on demand. Been playing golf since I was 7, competitive high school and college. If I had this growing up I know my game would have been stronger. When I hit the ball “perfect” it’s within 5 yards of what I would expect. Recommend for anybody who loves the game.
i have used it for about 2 months now and have made my golf game better by using this to practice at home. as long as there isnt a big metal object or concrete in front of it, it will work fine
