    When will v5 be out ? I like the top protector , I find that some high wedge shots bounce off my Celing and come back and almost land on top of the unit ..

      Not sure about the bullet top..It is kind of cool, but not really golf related and some folks just aren't "into" guns.

      Boerdoc Thanks for the feedback - Thought about you today - check out what MIT did with an old squash court.

        I did have a flightscope in mine until I changed to protee in my shop at home. I am using the Skytrak for practice and drills.

        Perfect - without the mats and netting it might make for an exciting new sport!

      I just sent you a PM, but I figured I would post it here in case there are others who may have the same questions.

      First off, great work on the FMJ case. I've been hesitant to order the Skytrak version of the case after reading some of the members comments in the forums. I have nothing but positive reviews on FMJ case and am ready to purchase the FMJ. Seeing that V5 is just around the corner, do you recommend I wait or get the V4 that is available now? What improvements does the V5 offer and when do you expect it to be ready?

        I received my FMJ just a little bit ago and wanted to thank awisnia for such a great product. I finally got my simulator set up in my garage and purchased the FMJ knowing that my friends would want to take a few swings (none of them play golf!!)

        Anyway, during a party at the house, the comment was made - Hey! lets check out the simulator!!. Well, the first direct shot to the skytrak and my heart stopped. Set everything back up and bam! another shot to the skytrak!

        Set up everything and it still worked. Needless to say, play time was over

        Thanks again for the FMJ. Works like a charm!!

        Yeah - fair question...Probably ready end of the month. I have 24 of the FMJs left. They work fine, 300 of them out there in the world and only stories of "lives-saved". The new HD has some adjustments based on feedback from the beta testing...other than some protection for balls-from-above - it's mostly ergonomic and stylistic changes. There will be an upgrade path for everybody at a reduced cost - and a special offer for those that jumped in on the original batch last year. I'd rather not have folks asking to return them to get the newer version, so probably best to be up front about that.

        The HD will cost a bit more, but nothing silly. Really up to you - at $95 you get something now that works. If you're the type that envies the newest model of things...best to wait

          Just want to throw a follow up review since I've had the case for a while now. I had one of the original cases from the first batch. The case has been rock solid. V1 was well built so I can only imagine the newer versions are just that much better. I haven't had issues with mis-reads, the case is solid, heavy, fully protective, includes all the hardware, and >30% cheaper than the competition. I know the other case is great, has nothing but positive feedback but there is tremendous value in the FMJ and a true willingness to continuously improve based on user feedback which can only be seen as a positive.

              I purchased one thru ebay last week because i'm taking my ST into the AA Hdqrs in May to get the C-Levels engaged prior to our Big Golf Day later in May. I don't trust they wouldn't shank one, so also bought the side nets for my Net Return. Looks like I will need to place it on the mat inside the nets but that shouldn't be an issue.

              I'l post some pics of the Corporate event so everyone can use it to have a Sim. at their work, ya no as a stress reliever.

                I just got my SkyTrak last week and I ordered the FMJ and got it a day before the SkyTrak arrived, Installation was very easy. It has already be hit twice by shanks with no issues. One was with a driver hit very hard, The ball just bounced off. Great product, Thanks.
