The Majors Series - S1 E1: The 2024 US Open
I am playing every venue for the Majors to see how I would do. Using GS Pro with the settings at their most difficult, we will see how I stack up to the professionals playing in the event. The putting will be set to hard and the gimmie circle will be set to the smallest possible (2 feet).
At the start of this series I am playing to a 9.6 handicap.
Lets see how I would fair at the 2024 US Open

The 2023 match play championship at The Home Course in DuPont, Wa. started with 64 players. The event is down to the final four. With practice the night before the event and warm ups at the course, will I be able to advance to the finals? Let’s find out.
Tour Issue SIM Titanium 3 wood vs the Mavrik off the rack 3 wood. (Is there REALLY a difference?)
มุมมอง 752 ปีที่แล้ว
A tour issue club gives the user the clubs EXACT specifications, where a club off the rack fits into the tolerance of the listed specification. Is it better to know the exact numbers for loft, lie, face angle and CG point? Or do you just hit the ones off the rack until you find one that feels right? Comment below

Should you get Foresight’s GC3 launch monitor, or the Bushnell Launch Pro [BLP] Save Money!
มุมมอง 6K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Want a GC3 but don’t want to pay full price? You don’t have to! A fully unlocked BLP IS a GC3. You save almost $1,100 going with the unlocked BLP over the GC3. Here’s how: A GC3 charges $95 for shipping, (that $95 is taxed as well) where the BLP gets free shipping. You pay taxes on the full $7,495 for the GC3 but on the BLP you only pay tax on the unit ($2,995) and NOT on the software unlock ($...

    • @michaelbarkergolf389
      @michaelbarkergolf389 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, before I unlocked it, I used it that way. The basic package (free the first year, $99 thereafter) can do that for you, however, it won’t show your shots on a range, it will show you a 2 dimensional representation of curve and height. You will be able to get basic numbers, but for more detailed numbers, you will need the silver at a minimum and gold to unlock the rest. You can take it to the range, hit the ball, watch the ball flight and look at your numbers on the units touchscreen. No subscription needed for that. The only issue is you’ll be using range balls, but you could use real balls in an empty field as well.

      No wifi issues at home. When I take it to the range, if you don’t give it enough time to set up it’s wifi signal, it won’t connect to an iPad. Apparently, this is no longer an issue as long as the unit has enough time to put out its wifi signal. I’ll be trying that this weekend. 👍

      If you count resell value in comparison to what you paid, they should all be about the same (not including money you paid for subscriptions) However, since you’re saving $600 with an unlocked BLP vs a GC3 pre-fsx play you’ll be getting better value with the unlocked BLP.

If you plan to use it to fully improve, GC3 will be the way to go as you will have all data points that even unlock version does not have. If you go to the site, they removed 3rd party software which means you will not be able to use Swing Catalyst. I may be wrong but I don't even see the unlock version anymore.
