    Weird ball flights with 4 hybrid + foam balls and Skytrak

    I was hitting my 4 hybrid with my foam balls when I got 2 very weird ball flights with Skytrak. Has anyone experienced this? I wish I can hit over 400 yards.

    4 H: real life and real ball Skytrak distance 170
    4 H: foam ball Skytrak distance 140

    Foam balls apparently don’t work or register correctly. However I’ve never seen that haha. Wild

      Don't expect foam balls to replicate the distances of real balls because they aren't traveling the same distance as real balls, nor are they producing the same launch conditions in terms of spin or ball speed as real balls. Those are some pretty hilarious shot tracers though lol. Are you not able to hit real balls in your space for some reason?

        When my kids take the afternoon nap or if it is after 9PM I use foam balls to lessen the noise.

        Never seen that but there’s a hole at a course I play where that might be the perfect shot.

          Do you have your elevation jacked up really high? That is likely the problem if so.

            Correct, I have it at 10,000 feet in an attempt to make the foam balls travel farther.
