Hello,
I have had a GC2 for close to 4 years now. It got a lot of use through the winter when I first got it, then I moved to a new house and it has seen some use in the summer here and there. Now I finally am getting to the end stages of my golf sim room, and am getting a ton of use out of it again. Right now my focus is on improving my game, and 99% of my use has been on the FSX range. I'd really like to have club head data, and am considering the differences between upgrading to GCQ or adding HMT.
From what I can tell, the logical decision is to add HMT. I'm looking at like $3500-$4500 used, vs about $10,000 to upgrade ($11,000 GCQ plus $4000 for clubhead add on minus $5000 ish to sell my GC2, I already have FSX 2020 so I think they wouldn't require me to buy that?) From what I read, the accuracy difference is negligible (twice as accurate but the GC2 is so accurate anyway that the difference isn't noticeable, right?)
That said, the GCQ is still in consideration. I understand it has less misreads, which is really nice. I hit about eight 56 degree wedge shots in a row yesterday that didn't register, and that can be particularly frustrating when playing a sim round. The larger hitting area would be nice also, as I assume that it would be large enough that I could set it up so that it would read the fixed tee, an iron shot, and a putting strip all at once? The alignment stick feature would be nice also.
Any other benefits I'm missing? Anyone make the jump that wouldn't mind sharing their thoughts?
Thanks,
Bob
