  • Best golf software for use with Skytrak

    So I am approaching what I think will be a sim build.
    1. Homecourse retractable screen.
    2. Skytrak
    3. Reel Feel Mats
    4. Software ??????

    Im kind of looking for a bit of help selecting the best golf software for the skytrak.

    Ill mostly be playing rounds of golf on the sim, not just practice.

    Ive done the most research on TGC and JNPG. JNPG excites me because of the touch screen aspect. I love the idea of having a screen on a mount that swings in from the side and touch does everything. However its fairly pricey, and there arent a ton of courses for it (i guess some more if you buy the $250 plan from skytrak)
    TGC looks nice and all, but it doesnt have full touch screen. Still need the mouse for some stuff, which I dont like at all . I plan to make this very minimalist.

    Then there is WGT, which can run off an Ipad, which sounds amazing. Graphically its not terrible either. But from what ive read you cant even play 4 people with your buddies in a room? and there is no multiplayer? (i assume that to mean tournaments online) . I dont know enough about WGT yet to make an informed decision, but it interests me.

    ANything else I should be considering?

    thanks

    I tried E6, had JNPG for a year and then a few months ago I jumped on the TGC train. I personally think they are all great but none of them are perfect. If you smashed them all together to create Jack Nicklaus's Golf Club v.E6 people would still find something they didn't like. I went with TGC in the end because of the lifetime purchase option and the way Protee operate.

    With regards to controlling the software as others have mentioned Ipad, wireless mouse etc. but I use a Bluetooth VR controller. It's small enough to fit in the pocket and it does everything I need to avoid trips to the keyboard which isn't that much, I only use scout camera, left,right to aim and then club selection. Starting off the round is the only time I need to use a keyboard and as it was cheap I have one controller for every player, seems to work well for me.
