SkyTrak Golf Launch Monitor





The first personal launch monitor of its kind, SkyTrak is a realistic and real-time golf practice and play system. SkyTrak connects wirelessly to your iPad Air, then accurately captures and displays launch data and ball flight as soon as you hit the ball. You’ll see the ball fly and receive instant feedback on every shot.

SkyTrak utilizes the same technology found in other commercial launch monitors but at an affordable price, making it available to more fitters, teachers, and college programs. The key here is ACCURACY. SkyTrak provides REAL launch data that helps you find the right club, the right swing, and know your game inside and out.



SkyTrak: Golf's Most Affordable Practice & Play Simulator to Improve Your Game

Practice Like a Pro

SkyTrak, the first personal launch monitor of its kind, is a realistic and real-time golf practice and play system. SkyTrak provides the ability to practice and hit balls with any club in your bag at any time and analyze and display a highly accurate rendering of your ball flight in stunning HD. Why is the SkyTrak so accurate, addictive and so much fun? Because it is not a toy like other golf simulators on the market that do not reflect your real game, your real shot shape, your real distance and real direction. At its heart is a professional quality launch monitor that is so precise that it’s able to reproduce your actual shots with the same accuracy of the top of the line commercial launch monitors that professional golfers use costing up to $20,000 or more. SkyTrak is real golf, that’s addictive, fun and will help you improve your game.

Play Famous Courses at Home

SkyTrak has teamed with leading Golf Simulator partners to create the first affordable way for golfers to have a simulated but authentic golf experience at home using their own clubs and balls. By simply hitting balls into a net, the revolutionary SkyTrak Personal Launch Monitor captures thousands of data points to deliver commercial quality ball flight simulations that reflect a golfer’s actual performance for game improvement and entertainment at a fraction of the price of comparable alternatives. When combined with simulated championship golf courses delivered in stunningly realistic HD, playing golf at home is just like being on the course.

Commercial Accuracy with a Consumer Price

Providing such realism and authenticity requires two important ingredients. First, you need a launch monitor that can accurately measure ball speed, back spin, side spin and launch angle. Before SkyTrak, this capability was only available in commercial launch monitors costing as much as $20,000. Second, you needed high-quality simulation software that can also cost $10,000 or more. While cheaper versions are available, it’s at the cost of losing authentic replication of a golfer’s actual performance. With SkyTrak only a fraction of the cost of other commercial quality launch monitors, you can have a complete Practice, Play and Entertainment system at home for use anytime rain or shine. And the game you see at home will be the same game you see at the course.

Frequently Asked Questions


What data parameters does SkyTrak measure? Why?
Our primary goal for SkyTrak is to provide the core set of data that you need to improve while providing a superior experience and level of entertainment. Many systems take the approach of providing every possible shot parameter whether it’s usable or not. We pared down the long list of captured data and present every shot with only the data you need to measure your performance. Without subjecting you to data-overload, knowing your numbers is crucial to game improvement. But, if you just don’t care about numbers, these key parameters and more have to be measured and captured accurately, to feed the ball flight model so you see your real shot shape and carry distance for practice and play.

Here are the important parameters:

Ball Speed
Probably the most important element is ball speed. It has the greatest effect on total distance out of all the data collected. Ball Speed is affected by club head speed, the impact position on the club face and any rebound of the ball. This is an easy one because basically the higher the speed the longer the distance potential.

Launch Angle
The launch angle measures the vertical angle of the golf ball in relation to the ground as it leaves your club. It has the greatest impact on how high the ball flies. With higher launch angles, you see higher shots. Ideally, your shot will follow an optimal launch angle which means they are not too high or too low.

Side Spin
Another key element is side spin. You can think of this as the horizontal rotation of the ball in relation to the ground as it leaves your club. Why is it important? It’s the determining factor for what type of shot you hit. Whether it was straight, hook, draw, fade or slice. You want to see low side spin so your ball flies straighter. We use a formula to extract a side spin number from spin axis so that it is easier to understand. The larger the number, the more curve the ball had. A negative number means the ball curved left and a positive result means it curved right.

Back Spin
Back spin measures the vertical rotation of the ball in relation to the ground as it leaves the club face. It has the greatest effect on ball flight efficiency and is helpful for play under windy conditions. You can control the height of the shot with back spin, the more back spin the higher the ball flies.

Spin Axis
Related to back and side spin is the spin axis which represents a horizontal or vertical line through the middle of the golf ball. If spin axis is zero, then the ball flies in a straight line. If the spin axis is tilted left or right, then the ball flies along a curved path to the left or right. The idea here is to keep the club path and face heading in the same direction through impact, with the resulting spin axis remaining as close to zero as possible.

Side Angle
SkyTrak measures side angle as well. Side angle is the direction the ball travels in relation to the target line as the ball is leaving the club face. How does it work? Too much side angle causes the ball to start further offline to the target. With less side angle and less side spin, the ball will travel straighter to the intended target.

Can I use it anywhere, indoor and outdoor?

As long as there is enough room to safely swing a golf club, you have enough room to use the SkyTrak system. Suggested indoor dimensions are a minimum of 10’ wide x 10’ deep with a variable height, depending on your physical height and length of your club. (See the diagram below)

SkyTrak is completely portable and can be used both indoors and outdoors on a mat. If you’re using the SkyTrak system indoors, then you’ll need to use a hitting net. The SkyTrak Launch Monitor has an internal battery providing over 4 hours of use when fully charged and wirelessly connects to your iPad. Outdoor performance may vary in certain lighting conditions. Avoid the sun shining or reflecting directly into the lens of the SkyTrak device.

You should use new, or relatively new, quality distance, performance, or Tour type golf balls in good clean condition. The type and condition of the ball you use will affect ball flight data, most noticeably ball speed and spin. Ball imperfections, mud, excessive markings, cut covers, and/or otherwise identifiable markings on the ball, etc. can affect SkyTrak’s dimple recognition capability, making ball data difficult to analyze.

Why is SkyTrak an important tool for improving your game?
There are many reasons that owning a realistic practice and play system will help you develop and improve. The primary reason for having SkyTrak in your arsenal is that it helps you practice the right things the right way.

Quality practice in a convenient, mobile setup
Many golfers are setup to fail by practicing the wrong mechanics over and over. With the immediate and detailed feedback you get on the core measurement parameters you’ll know whether you’re doing it right or wrong and can make adjustments to improve both performance and consistency.

Entertaining and fun
While our primary focus is helping golfers improve, why not make improvement fun and entertaining at the same time? With a powerful, intuitive, and graphically appealing user interface and graphics, SkyTrak provides a superior simulation environment that animates ball flight so you can see your improvement. With challenges and games, you will learn how to make the ball do what you want it to do, even if you don’t realize you are learning. Over time, by playing games and challenges, your shot making skills will improve on the golf course.

History
You’ll be able to see your performance improve over time with the history and trends from each and every practice session. Seeing and tracking your progress is the best way to get an accurate gauge of your overall improvement and also great incentive to keep practicing.

Learning new shots
There are golfers and then there are shot makers. Do you find yourself struggling with a particular situation on the course? Do you see a shot that a more experience golfer makes and want to learn how to do it? With SkyTrak you can work on these shots in the privacy of your home, so the next time you try that shot live on the course, you’re ready and more confident.
