General discussions and issues of the Protee golf simulator.

New beta interface soon that will fix the Short Rough penalty for LedgeRock golf course. It will be posted in the Technical Info section when ready.

You had asked over on the Ottawa forum if there was anything else we could think of that we wanted or wanted fixed. I am not sure if this is just a hardware limitation or not, but on short chips my head partially covers the clubhead sensors and therefore it doesn't read the shot. I have to stand farther away, which of course messes up my chipping in real life. Can the software tell it to ignore the clubhead and just read ball speed, launch and azimuth since sidespin on those chips is so minimal its not needed. Anyway just a thought.

Can't do anything about the shadow of your head when chipping as far as shot detection.

Once the new device is integrated, you won't have this problem. You'll also be able to pick and choose which data to use for ball flight.

Tested and seems very good.

Hopefully a fix for that will happen soon J.

Is this new interface newer than what I have? 23?

[Maverick]

Yes. New one is 24.

We'll crap. Wish I had seen this before I played a quick round on that course. It was confusing to say the least.

[Maverick]

Sorry to hear that. It's a great looking course and plays perfect after update 24. Should be a great tournament.

Maybe we should create a suggestion thread for ProTee software. Either interface or ProteePlay. If it exists already I missed it.

For ProteePlay I'd like to see the grid turn on automatically when on green and off when not.
For ProteePlay I'd like the distance to read in feet and not yards when putting. I don't think most people think "I've got a 12 yard putt".

Might be a good idea to list the outstanding requests so people know they've been submitted. Scramble comes to mind. Oh, how about a vote button for suggestions so ProTee can get an idea on how important these are for folks?

as far as the putting, I have to do math like 12 yards is 36 ft.

I played 18 at Augusta with my Brother in law whom has never played on this system before. He always plays on a Full Swing system. He like it but he did have a lot of miss reads. I was wondering what was going on with him as I rarely have any mis reads. He was having a heck of a time getting it to register his chips or bunker shots. It would say no audio, or slow club head speed. I think the problem was he stands close to the ball so his shadow must have been over the sensor. Same for putting.

Bubs, real balls or Almost balls?
