Exactly what I've been looking for! Thanks and you've got a new subscriber!

Can you give more info about the curtains and curtain track you used?

K2 golf tees have been really durable and I haven’t had any issues with them for almost a year now. The started bundle was around 70 dollars but goes on sale at times. Well worth it. I’m on the hunt for a gaming PC with the specs you mentioned. I think I’ll buy one on Black Friday or cyber Monday… great video. I started off with the R10 but upgraded to the Skytrak+. Had it for almost a year now. Still getting weird readings on it(at times) but it is what it is lol.

Awsome looking course.. Good to see someone out there in KZbin land still supporting the r10.. Thanks for the video 🙂

I found a nice Optoma 1080P Ultra Short Throw, not realizing it was only 100” projector. It does 4:3 or 16:9. Being an UST, it needs to be placed 1’10” from the screen. Good news it it sells for 1400 and I only paid 200, so will re-sell it for a better projector for my project.

***VERY IMPORTANT***Make sure you are not closing the popup that says APIv1 Connect Window in GSPro, that also has the General and Debug tabs. Just minimize it.

I dont have the concede option to go to next hole how did u do thay

Great video. Thanks for your information.

Hi thanks for the video - im just in the process of building my garage sim and these are really helpful tips 👍👍, One thing that would be really useful would be a modern step by step video on how to setup an og skytrak with the connector available on the sgt discord - I dont know if this is possible as I see from your video you have a skytrak+. Anyway, thanks for all your videos and long may they continue 😁😁😁😁😁😁

I have gotten this to work but it was a battle trying over and over each time. It now connects but does not detect the ball. The monitor shows connected in Bluetooth, the program just does not work consistently. I have finally given up on it.

Good advice. Thanks.

I bought a 4x5 mat from the company that guy was selling on Golf channel. Man I wish I could remember his name. But in my studio, I have half inch floor matting. So this mat didn't need a backing which they sold cheaper and man it's great quality. I probably hit two hundred thousand balls and this thing is still primo.

Thanks for the valuable info. Due to space, I may need to use a side read device, so I was interested in this. I would like to putt and chip, so the sky track may be my best option. Even though I would prefer to start with the Garmin. The Garmin would barely fit if I go that route, just can extend it at all, I am limited to 15.5’.

Garmin - Try non rct balls for short chips! Worked for me. Very few no reads. I use regular balls 100 yards in. I can chip as little as 3-4 yards.

Thanks for the list! Gonna be getting GSPro soon and will seek these out.

I follow the steps as you showed but when I open GSPro it disconnects the API. I do run the API as an administrator. PLEASE HELP.

glad to see it's all available on the original Skytrak as well, which I just picked up brand new for $995. I was strongly favoring the r10 for awhile for my first sim, but since Skytrak doesn't have any space requirements and is better indoors, I was sold on it for really only a few hundred more dollars. If I understand correctly, since I will be running my ipad through my projector, the only third party software I could get is E6?

Always appreciate your videos! I read that SkyTrak is working on their course simulation package for IPad for release sometime this year. Do you have any information about that? Thanks.

Hello, great video as usual, thanks! Did you setup the putting? thanks for your feedback. Cheers

Thanks for sharing, I’ve watched a ton of videos on this topic. Yours has been the most helpful!

Great review 👍🏼👍🏼

Do you have a link for the Bluetooth connector you purchased?

Thank you for this. Really helpful in making my decision

E6 is the best and you get free driving range and 5 free courses 🤷‍♂️

🙏

Thanks for the video. Similar to others, had Bluetooth issues on my gaming PC so disabled and bought a Wi-Fi dongle which did help. My question tho is with my set up, I can connect a USB cable directly from the Garmin to the PC. I understand I would use the other GitHub download (w/o Bluetooth) which I did, but still having issues with my R10 tracking once connected I think by looking at the GitHub window which line by line shows some status issues still. Everyone seems to go the Bluetooth route but assume the cable is fine (possibly better) correct - or not?

Really decent video, thank you. Have u seen the my golf spy lab test for the V3 ? (Google it) Apparently this is a really bad ball and actually ranked as the worse ball they tested this year, but i wonder if that was the case because the big brands pay them where as costco wouldnt, i used to use these but the my golf spy review made my mind wonder but think im gonna go back to them.

on the driving range is there a way to lock your target line like aiming 10 yards right. I seems to reset to square every shot. Thanks

If you don’t wanna put at all what option do you put on

Getting mine tomorrow. Very excited. Nice video

John Excellent display of the Skytrack. Is this the LM of choice moving forward from here? Will you still be providing content on the R10? I might have to look into the Skytrack this fall😂 Wife's not gonna like this one. Thanks

Nice video! Garmin is still a great tool and value years later... Also, congrats on 1k plus Subs!

I said "Hole #4" for Pebble Beach but intended hole#8 which was correctly demonstrated in the video. Thanks for watching!

Hi John. Is your garage floor sloped ? I’m in the process of building mine in the garage. My floor has a slope down towards the hitting mat. I’m thinking of just leveling off my hitting mat and leaving the slope in front of the screen. If anything it will help the ball roll back to me . What are your thoughts on garage floor slope ?

Thanks for all the information. Great channel! Subscribed !

Hey John. I have watched a lot of your videos on the R10 and GSPRO. They were very helpful to me. Thanks. I spent a lot of time and effort getting putting working. But never reliable, it changed every time I turned it on. So I made the decision to buy a Skytrak Plus. To my amazement the same time as you. Now after a lot of fiddling I have GSPRO working on Skytrak. And to be honest I wish it was simpler to just turn things on and play. So I am looking forward to your videos on game play with the Skytrak and compare to what you had with GSPRO it might help with my future subscriptions. Thanks

John I've watched a lot of videos. And I have not seen anyone say exactly how the Garmin R10 is setup using a vertical and horizontal laser to project onto the impact screen. I have a Sig10 enclosure just like your Sig8. Did you use a laser to get the Garmin to read wright. The sigs have the Velcro padding that comes up about 4 or so inches until the projected image is on the screen at the bottom. Do you level your garm to be just the height of your driving mat? Or is it at the bottom of the screen? Thanks in advance for any reply. Sorry it was so long.

Thanks for the review. I got one question, where and how do you attach the rain hood? I can‘t see any buttons on the bag outside and can‘t find anything about it… Greetings from Germany!

I found the perfect golf tee for me after trying them all. You ever hear of K2 golf tees? Specifically designed for sim golf. I’ve had them for many many months now and no issues with them at all. Their durability is God tier. Think I paid 70 for the set of tees and bean bag with tethers. I have Skytrak+ sim setup in my garage. I cannot get enough of golf honestly lol. I just bought a durable delta golf hitting net as I’ve blasted through two golf nets already. Maybe one day I’ll get an impact screen and go that route. Great video, just subbed to your channel!🫡

My favorite youtube channel for golf sims by far!

I’ve been a long time user of Garmin products. From long ago GPS devices to more recently multi-sport watches. A few things I’ve learned about Garmin: 1) battery life claims are almost always lower than real life. The R10 has a claimed 10 hour charge life. I’ve never gone less than 30%, after approximately 7 hours of use. So, spot on to the 10 hour battery life. 2) Garmin firmware updates are pretty hectic after the initial product release, but settles down after awhile. It wasn’t unusual for my watches to get 2-3 updates within the first year, then relatively nothing for years. Until … the replacement device is released. Which leads to … 3) Garmin supports older units with updates from newer units until the old unit can no longer support the update (either thru lack of internet space or limits to the device). Do not be surprised when Garmin release the “R11?” and at that time finally releases a new firmware for the R10. Garmin supports the investment device owners have made in their devices. 4) Garmins history with radar goes back a number of years to the Varia bike radar, an amazing device that hangs off the rear of your bike and warns of approaching vehicles, the distance and number of cars approaching. So they’ve been “radar-ing” a long time. And the improvements incorporated into the Varia over the years makes me comfortable saying Garmin is in golf LMs for the long haul. Thanks for some great content concerning the R10. I’ve watched this and prior videos on the device and it helped me immensely in making the decision to get one myself.

Can’t wait for the Skytrak vids!

Great video lots of great information. I am a similar path…..garage set up. Using Rapsodo MLM2 pro with Bluetooth connector to GS Pro.

Do people have to tweak their elevation and humidity settings to get more accurate data ? I use the Garmin app, and the awesome golf app and I seem to need to set GSPRO elevation to 4000ft to get accurate ball flight distances…

Hi Jhon, what kind Of GSPro should be buy? Is it open API? Because don’t have R10 in there

Fantastic video!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 thanks for the great information! I noticed that it looks like some of the holes for clubs are bigger than others. Do you think you could fit 2 clubs in some of the bigger holes???

Awesome video lots of really really good information for future reference. Could you maybe get rid of the background music music… there’s nothing necessarily wrong with it. It’s just distracting from what you’re saying.
