SkyTrak v3.1 Public Beta

**DougieMn** · 03-08-2018, 12:02 PM

Somewhat out of the loop here because of kids/work/life but awesome to see SkyTrak continues to improve and evolve or time. I was a pre release purchaser years ago and still to this day absolutely love my SkyTrak. It's definitely improved my game as well as given me countless hours of enjoyment.

Thanks again for all your efforts Seth and keep up the good work!

p.s. I'm going to have to look for my old SkyPro!!!!!

Awesome changes in this release. Club data seems legit, and consistent. I personally dont mind how it is displayed currently, because I don’t want to see all of that extra information on every shot, but I understand why some would prefer it to pop up automatically too. The missed green thing is definitely fixed. The addition of fairway practice is awesome. How much will the club insights package cost? Added a few screen shots for the apple guys. Could only hit little wedges though as my daughter was sleeping.

Did you address the inaccuracy on long clubs for high swing speed players?

**dg_1983** · 03-08-2018, 07:29 PM

Is it just me or is the face/path graphic setup for lefties?

My brain wants to see the head moving from right side to left side, like I see when playing golf not the opposite way around.

I want this

Great work though, really great.

Seth,

I can't seem to change the ground firmness anymore in the range settings.

I got the skypro to synch no problem. I had a problem with my bluetooth driver - replaced and all good now! The light turned orange next to skypro in club data confirming it was synched up. A few more things I noticed...

* Would love the club data to show for a user defined time frame as mentioned above. Or even better could it be a split screen like 50% range and 50% club data. The club data doesn't even need to be 50% as 25% of the screen should be more than enough for club data?
* The greens/fringe/rough look much better. The colors are more realistic now.
* How accurate is clubhead speed with the skypro? Is this a "better" number than what skytrak was estimating before?
* When in the skypro club data setting, is swing path and face to path calculated by skytrak or club insights?

Thank you

The ground firmness is so puzzling to me...it works fine here on multiple PC's and iPads. I'll keep digging into it!

Thanks for the great feedback. I think I'll look at including a self-timed option for the club data screen since there have been so many requests for it.

SkyPro should have extremely accurate CHS - it is a measured parameter for them.

Any numbers in black in the app mean it's coming from SkyTrak...so SkyPro numbers are orange and everything else is SkyTrak.

My course condition drop down is locked also.

You could improve the numeric display by getting rid of the carry total graphs and replacing with some club data. Imo much more useful and won't cost screen real estate

Thank you for posting! It looks like a great addition to the ST. I am interested in what the new package will cost too, hopefully it is included in the GIP.

**butette** · 03-08-2018, 10:39 PM

Stupid question, but do you need the GIP license in order to try out the new features of the beta?

**Jwheels9876** · 03-08-2018, 10:57 PM

So what is the better option to have for club data? The R motion or the Skypro when integrated with skytrak? have a friend setting up a SIM room soon and he may go the skytrack route first

**dg_1983** · 03-08-2018, 11:20 PM

In the shot history slide panel I hate the horizontal scroll......the slide panel is already big enough to hide everything else so try and squeeze in all data points without the scroll

**MainStGolf** · 03-08-2018, 11:22 PM

Just downloaded the new beta and used the SkyPro for the first time. Really looking forward to the integration! However when I went to the shot data on the side I did not see any presentation and no dispersion circles. Thanks for giving us access!

**CintiGolfer** · 03-08-2018, 11:45 PM

I just did a comparison between club data using Skytrak and Club Insights. I see a significant difference in angle of attack for these for my irons. For the driver, they are relatively close. I've never hit irons on a Trackman or GC2 w/ HMT or GC Quad so I don't know what my true angle of attack is for my irons. I have used Trackman for my driver and both methods seem close to what I saw on Trackman.

Is anyone else seeing this difference? Any idea which one is more accurate?

SkyTrak_Seth I'm pretty certain there is an error in the graphic for face to path. For right handers, when you hit a push draw, the path is inside out and the face is closed to the path. However, I noticed when i pulled up the data, it shows path in to out and then it says face to path as open. If that is the case, it would be a fade/slice depending upon the differential.

Shouldn't the graphic say "Closed" for this shot?

**dg_1983** · 03-09-2018, 08:44 AM

That does look wrong.

1.9 path and 1.8 face/path (3.7 to target)

That should give a flight that starts right of target and slices given then open face/path relationship

Definitely something wrong

SkyTrak_Seth Kudos on a very impressive beta so far!

I made some mentions of the angle of attack issues for SkyTrak as the data source in a comment above so you can take a look at that for your beta information.

One confusing user interface feature that you may want to make more clear would be the actual data sources... It wasn't fully apparent to me that you have to choose the data source (Skytrak, Skypro or Club Insights) BEFORE you make your shots to get the data from that particular source. At first, I was just hitting balls with my Skypro attached asking why I wasn't seeing any orange data then I just accidentally left the "Skypro" on as the data source in the screen and I saw my orange data and basically had a serendipity moment to find how to use my desired data source for club path data.

I'm not sure how you will present that "Data Source" question to the end user but I think that will be one confusing area without some type of "wizard" or question to the end user. I would imagine very few will have anything but Skytrak interpreted data so it may be a moot point but just food for thought for the beta from a UI perspective.

Also, very slick on how the SkyPro talks to my laptop via BLE with literally no setup on my part. (SkyPro app on iOS and Skytrak Beta on PC) I'm not even sure how you guys do that but it's slick!

So far, my gut feeling after hitting quite a few shots is that the SkyPro integration/data seems strongest, Insights second and the Skypro interpreted data just needs a little more refinement.

Looking forward to the R-Motion tests but I'm pretty skeptical that it can beat the Skypro as I have not been very impressed with the R-Motion mostly due to the fact that it simply does not calibrate itself like the Skypro. My tests with the R-Motion vs. the SkyTrak ball for ball were not impressive for the R-Motion even with all the club specs entered exactly correct into the R-Motion.
