    Just Bought Skytrak some ?'s

    HI all so I just bought the Skytrak with the protective case. I also bought the Rukk net with sides as I am mainly going to be using this in my backyard for a while. I have a few questions and TY in advance for your help.
    If I had to use once in a while non-real balls which ones are the most accurate?
    Does the Skytrak have any issues being used in an outside environment?
    Can I "try" even one hole of the TGC simulation before spending $? Are my absolute only option $450 for 1yr or $999 for lifetime?
    Anything special I need to do in order to use my driver with a tee? (to get the most accurate readings)
    How is accurate is chipping? does it show the "bump and roll" rather well?

    TY

    Buy "Almost Golf Balls" if you can't/don't want to hit real Balls

    No issues outdoors

    I do not have TGC. I have JNPG. No simulator trial but you can take a look at both through steam to see what they look like.

    I use a tee claw with normal plastic tee inserted into it. I put the tee slightly outside the red dot but I have not had misreads from the tee location.

    I ran into an issue with short chips not reading. Received some really good advice on the other forum to place the logo of the ball facing the cameras to help it read easier. This seems to really help.

      There has been Issues outdoors using the unit in direct sunlight and hitting from real grass causes camera difficulty in picking the ball up.

      Not sure about a trial option for JNPG or TGC , I have both and think they are both great, sure you would be happy with either.

      Short chipping in the skytrak range is fine for me , although I don't do it often.
