HMT Protection

[enigmamatt]

All --

After reading these forums, it seemed like there was no great way to protect the HMT unit for a GC2. Yes, it breaks off if you hit a shank -- but my bigger concern was bouncebacks.

I ended up finding a guy on Etsy who had made a metal GC2 case and worked with him to build one for the HMT as well. Pics included below as well as a link if you're interested. It seems to protect it without interfering with the HMT's ability to read the club face.

Looks good, does it just slide over it?

[enigmamatt]

Basically, yes. The bottom slides under the HMT connection arm, and you just screw it in. It comes with a new thumb screw that keeps the unit level given the extra weight on the arm.

Cool! I got Andy’s metal enclosure it’s awesome, and I like the idea of the hmt covering though so I could just leave it on 24/7. Usually I just put the hmt away when guests come over since they don’t use it..and are a little wild off the tee. :-)

Thank you for posting. I just ordered one as I really liked how it hid and cleaned up all the wires along with the protection. Cool idea!

Does the HMT cover work for both right-handed and left-handed setups? Or is it specific to right hand?

[enigmamatt]

At this point it only works for RH. If you ping the gentleman who manufactures it I'm betting he can cut you a left-handed one now that he has the dimensions. He would just need to flip which side is open vs. protected.
