    Englishman in the Philippines here Mitch - well done sir, hats off! You were unlucky at times, but considering the pressure you were putting yourself under, you did admirably. Keep 'em coming and best of luck.

    Mitch ..I registered for SGT today and started my Q school journey …that 9th is tough ..I had tree trouble like you !!…round 1 complete with an 81 ..room for improvement in round 2 👍

    Great vid, one of your best yet! A lot of fun to see your reactions both excited and frustrated. Wish we could have seen the round with the Eagle your reaction looked awesome. Good luck in the tour events!

    Love the channel! I have decided on building a sim in my garage and your setup has helped me make my decision. Skytrak and GS Pro it is, get in there!

    Really enjoying your content and it's giving me so many great ideas. Would love to understand more about the Skytrak putting feature

      Ag great I’m glad I’ve been able to help! Putting on SkyTrak isn’t too bad in my opinion. It’s not the most true to real life but no simulator/launch monitor has putting down to a tee just yet. On TGC 2019 you can turn on a feature called ‘straight putting’ which basically means you just need to judge the pace of the putt and you line it up using the keyboard arrows. It’s similar on GSPro, however there is a little less margin for error - if you hit your putt mor than a couple of degrees offline GSPro will pick that up. I hope that gives you more of an insight 👍🏼

      @@hcpgolf ☺ that's the bit I'm looking forward to the most, as I know you'll give a good account of it all, despite the results. I use my Skytrak just for the range and practice modes, helped loads, but GSPro is next level!!

    • @hcpgolf
      @hcpgolf  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I was the same, I used to use the SkyTrak practice modes all the time. But since getting software to play courses I have barely used the SkyTrak software. That’s probably why my handicap has started to go in the wrong direction 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

      @@hcpgolf that could definitely be a thing! Wedge matrix and randomised green distances have helped me. 28 HC at the beginning of the year, now 22 HC and I've broken 90 and won 2 comps so it certainly helps. Watched plenty of your content, which is why I'll be getting GSPro for winter. Summer I'll be playing out in the hay-fever.

    • @hcpgolf
      @hcpgolf  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thats awesome! Some progress that, well done! I managed to get down to 7 from 11 when I got skytrak - but that was over lockdown and I was hitting about 500 balls a day 😂 since then real life has happened again and I'm back up to 11! It is definitely a thing, I enjoy the skytrak practice modes!

    Have thought of a one length hybrid by cobra they come in 3,4and 5 and about the same length of your 6iron so you be able to swing them with more fire power.

    • @hcpgolf
      @hcpgolf  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, yes I actually bought a cobra one length 4 hybrid a few months back! I do use it but I’ve not mastered hitting it less than 40+ right just yet 😂 I made a video about it actually th-cam.com/video/Lf4HvdsfP4w/w-d-xo.html

  • @derekgonzalez9212

    Do you not use hybrids/woods? And is the course Phillips park in Illinois? If so I live like 10 minutes from it 🤣

    • @hcpgolf
      @hcpgolf  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have a cobra one-length 4 hybrid I can swing but apart from that I don’t have the ceiling height to swing anything longer. I’m not 100% sure where Phillips Park is, but I have a feeling it might be the one hour thinking of 👍🏼⛳️

    Hi Mitch…..loved watching you’re progress 👍…I’m going to register for the tour now I’ve seen your instruction vid. Just a thought on your pull draws- is the skytrak aligned properly ? I always go into skytrak app now and check alignment before I start a new round….just a thought 👍. I would love to produce content like yours but don’t have the technical knowledge 🙄

    • @hcpgolf
      @hcpgolf  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you, I’m glad I’ve been able to help! Thanks for the advice, I do the same as you - I align using the SkyTrak range before I go and play on GSPro/TGC 2019. If I went straight into a round and started hitting bad shots it would frustrate me knowing that could be the reason, so I always make sure!

    I just started watching your videos. Forgive me if this has been covered.
    It seems like you could have gotten away with a net because you always look at your computer monitor and not your screen.
    I am in the process of setting up a sim so it interests me if a net would suffice with a nice big monitor.
    Nice video I watched all the way through.

    • @hcpgolf
      @hcpgolf  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes you could build a sim with a net no problem, lots of people do that to save some money 👍🏼⛳️

    Awesome! What settings are you running GS Pro at and What’s your GPU? Thanks!

    • @hcpgolf
      @hcpgolf  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I run GSPro on either high or very high usually. If it’s an older course I will try ultra. I only have a 1650s GPU. You can see my setup here if you want a closer look How to Build a Gaming PC for Your Home Golf Simulator!

    Do you notice any difference in scoring between TGC2019 and GSPro? By the way, I live about 15 miles from Phillips Park Golf Course. Setup a tee time just over a week ago but we were rained (lightning) out.

    • @hcpgolf
      @hcpgolf  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not majorly. If anything I would say that GSPro is a little more difficult as there is more to think about when hitting shots. Ah gutted you got rained off!

    Have you found that changing the club you are using matching in GSpro makes a difference? or do you just leave it how it is and swing whatever club?

    • @hcpgolf
      @hcpgolf  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      No it doesn't make a difference, I usually just do it to show viewers what club I'm hitting. However I often forget!

    Why didn't you use more than 6 iron? That part of q school guidelines?

    • @hcpgolf
      @hcpgolf  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      No not at all, it’s just because my sim room is too small to swing anything more than a 6 iron! I wish I had enough room to swing driver!

  • @bpatrick1490
    @bpatrick1490 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    How do you like your skytrak? I have a mevo+ and the putting is awful, thinking about switching. How is the putting with skytrak & how is it overall shot reading wise. And do you need to pay the $100/year to use gspro?

    • @hcpgolf
      @hcpgolf  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I love my SkyTrak its been great for creating a simulator on a budget. I actually really like the putting too! I would estimate my SkyTrak reads 95% of my shots. No, my SkyTrak Game Improvement Plan has now ran out and I am still able to use GSPro with no problems 👍
