  • Market Explosion of Golf / Simulators

    Hello

    There's a lot of noise about the growth of the golf industry and articles are easy to find regarding that growth, I added one here.. I know that local courses are booming, clubs are selling, Skytraks and others are in high demand.

    From what I can see, Uneekor raised it's price by $1K simply b/c it could, and it feels like the explosion of golf has no end in sight.

    We all are on this forum b/c we are interested in or active in the simulator market, and I'm curious what people know about the future of the market. Skytrak could clearly raise it's price to $3500 and still be backordered. Ernest, which I have, probably has it the price ceiling. But I feel like there has to be a competitor to Uneekor coming into the market at that 7-10K price range. Or someone that enters at $5K that blows Ernest and Skytrak out of the water.

    It clearly takes years to develop this tech, so my question is basically this: Does anyone known of new tech coming down the pipeline for 2021 that would be worth waiting for? Or should I upgrade to Uneekor now? I don't want to invest and then have a brand new model in 21 or 22 come blasting on to the scene.
    Golf courses have provided an unexpected safe escape during the COVID-19 pandemic. We look back at how that happened and ahead at whether it might hold.

    Well, one of the big players is jumping into the consumer market for launch monitors. According to the webpage, Full Swing is releasing the “Kit” for $4k, and the reported metrics looks to include club pash and face angle at impact. The product page is light on details, but this looks to be the kind of product that could

      I'd at least wait for the PGA show for more info on the Full Swing Kit. If it is as good as they say it is, It should be just as good as Uneekor for half the price. The

      only downside is they aren't supposed to ship until the summer

        is it wrong of me that this thread is hovering over my full swing thought process? https://golfsimulatorforum.com/forum...wing-simulator

          As hot as the market is if you upgraded now you'd have the utility of the time spent using the Uneekor now. If somethign else does come along you could easily sell the Uneekor and get whatever new tech tickles your fancy.
