I found the answer to this. It’s cancel a vacation to northern Minnesota she didn’t want to go on in the first place, then use the money and call it your birthday present. Boom. Skytrak ordered.

Update: I got my Skytrak today! I built a platform to level my mat in my garage since I’m one of these with a sloped garage floor. I’ve got my Spornia net all set up. 40” TV I’m going to run the Skytrak software from my iPhone to using a lightning to HDMI cord (hopefully that works).
Super super excited to get it charged and set up. Little bit of a dream come true to have a legit sim setup in my house. Big day for the big dad.

Started with a lot of PVC and a net.
Added a skytrack and a full enclosure. Still not good enough.
Bought a new house.

Love it. Who has tips for getting this thing connected? I, for the life of me, can not get the app and unit to connect and I’m not tech stupid. It’s driving me nuts.
The only connection issues I had were when I would try to connect in networ mode, but I think that was a wifi issue. Direct mode always worked for me.

Are you using an iPad? Have you ever tried with an iPhone? I’m two days in and haven’t been able to get mine connected. Probably going to have to get on the phone with Skytrak on Monday. Annoying.

We have been thinking we may downsize in a few years, but now I want to add on to my house! I need higher ceilings!

Got everything working with the Skytrak. Had to get a new iPad for it to work, but we were overdue for one anyway. The kiddo will get the old one.
Got my “sim bay” as set up as it can be in the space we have. I think I’ve given up my garage parking space, but it’s worth it to me.

What’s everyone using for mats for your setup?
Mine is fine. It’s semi-upgraded. I don’t find that I have any issues with my wrists or club damage, but I’m not 100% sold on it. It’s a 5’x4’ that I had to build a platform for to level it since my garage floor is sloped. It works, but I’m not sure if it’ll hold up now that I’m using it a lot more.

I started with a Perfect ReAction golf mat. It was OK, but definitely grabbed your irons. I have a history of tendonitus in my right arm and bad wrists to boot, so I upgraded to a Fiberbuilt mat. I love the Fiberbuilt, it’s expensive but worth it in my book.

So I’m probably going to be returning my Skytrak. It’s missing 95% of shots. It’s setup exactly how it’s supposed to be. Problem has to be the unit. Not sure if I want to warranty it for a new one or not. Pretty soured on it and really really disappointed.

That sucks… are you going a different brand or just rerouting the money to other golf activities?
I don’t know. I really want/need something for home and was hoping Skytrak was it. I don’t know if I just got a bad unit, but I’m really unhappy. I don’t have the space for the Mevo+, so I may just have to wait until we have a new house with a better space.

Ah, well… good luck! Maybe give it another chance if it’s the best option for your space?
That stinks, the only shots my Skytrak ever missed were chips and putts. Unfortunately, Mevo+ is the only other viable option at that price point that I know of.
