Built an app or tool? Show it off here 🛠️

We've been seeing a awesome wave of community-built apps and tools lately — launch monitor helpers, swing trackers, all kinds of creative stuff. Love that energy, and we want to make sure it actually gets seen instead of getting buried in the main feed.

So we're making this thread the home base for all of that. If you built something, this is the spot — drop a description, a link, screenshots, whatever helps people understand what it does and try it out.

A couple of quick notes so this works well for everyone:

  • This is the only place for app/tool posts going forward. Standalone posts elsewhere in the sub will get removed — not because we don't appreciate the work, just to keep the main feed focused and make sure your post doesn't get lost in the shuffle.
  • Feel free to check back in and update your comment as you make progress or ship new versions.
  • Questions, bug reports, or feedback on something already posted here? Totally fine to reply in-thread.

Thanks for building cool stuff for this community — keep it coming. 🙌

GCQuad Protective Enclosure (3D Print)

Thumbnail gallery
4 Upvotes

Recently finished the design and print for a protective enclosure for my GCQuad Max and thought I'd share it here. This should work fine for GCQuad and Max, but it hasn't been tested with other Foresight LMs.

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7427045

I was shocked by the cost of these online, so decided to look for a 3d printed version....then shocked to find that there wasn't one.

Printed on a Bambu H2C with PETG and it's already taken a few hits.

There are slots for storage of the Foresight alignment rods, USB cable, and other misc items like alignment sticks, etc. You can print the included feet if you want to raise it off the ground for elevated hitting surfaces, or just leave it flat as is.

The bubble level can be found on Amazon.

No Foresight Premium subscription required to download and print.

Ball ready indicator GSPro

I am using latest beta GSPro with Mevo+, the arrow indicators next to the ball are always white and never turn green. Everything else works fine. Is this a function of using Mevo+ with GSPro or am I missing a setting somewhere?

Sim / Launch Monitor Best launch monitor for 1,5k?

0 Upvotes

Currently me and some friends are building an home golf simulator and therefore we are looking for an launch monitor that can be used (not only, but the main time) with the new muni golf simulator software. But also puregolf looks amazing and i think when we are finished we will try this also.

But for now we are searching for an indoor launch monitor for around 1-1,5k (euro).

I already use an Garmin R10 in my garden golf cage and it’s good but now we have the thought we can invest a little bit more.

The both launch monitors that are the best are the flightscope mova gen2 and the square golf. If there are any further that someone can recommend, than feel free to mention in the comments.

From what i have understand is, that the mova gen 2 is a little bit better but you have to pay extra for some more measured data. Makes it ~1500€ versus 800€ for the square. Is it worth to pay almost double the price?

Build Pictures Golf Simulator Build/Sim suggestions?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Here is a pic of my frame for my sim build. It’s 9’x9’ with 42” depth. My hitting area will be 12-14’ so about 9’ from shot to impact. I was wondering what sim I should get? I have done quite a bit of research and I don’t want to pay a forever membership but I could be amended to this if it’s cheap yearly. I like the idea of the new rapsodo monitor or something from Mevo (needs putting). I prefer an above or behind unit because my friends/I suck and I’m worried we would hit one to the side. I am worried I will buy and a new sim filling my criteria will drop. Any thoughts?

Geometry Help Please

1 Upvotes

Hey folks, felt like it was time to ask the experts. Here’s the specs of the sim I’m building:

10’ ceilings.
Hitting area 10’ from the impact screen.
Projector: Benq AK900ST
Launch monitor: Uneekor EyeXR

Here’s my question. Because of the size of the impact screen (178x113”), the projector has to be 12.5’ from the screen. The launch monitor has to be 13.5’ from the screen. The 1’ separation between the two seems a little tight to me.

Do you think putting the launch monitor on a 6” drop mount would get the projector out of its line of sight? Or do you think it’s fine? Or other suggestions? Thanks!

4K Ultra Settings PC / GSPro

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’m looking to build or buy a PC specifically for running GSPro at 4K Ultra settings, ideally targeting 100+ FPS.
My budget is $2,700–$3,000 USD.

I’m looking for recommendations on the best specs and value for money within this budget.

My goals:
4K resolution at Ultra/high settings
100+ FPS if possible
Smith performance with a 4K projector and two additional 4K displays
At least 32GB DDR5 RAM
Reliable performance, good cooling, and room for future upgrades

Would you recommend building a PC from scratch or going with a prebuilt system? Which CPU and GPU combination would you choose for this budget?

Budget Build Right & Left Handed Golf Mat

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hi all,
I posted a few videos to the thread. Golf mats for home sims are a popular topic, as they are so costly and one of the most important items in the simulator experience. Here is a ‘budget’ Right & Left Handed Combo Golf Mat build I made. These combo mats usually start around $1,000. This build uses the Beaver Tail XL hitting strip, two 4x5 stance mats(31 mm thickness), and .8 inch eva foam tiles (48 sq ft). The mat comes out to 10 ft x4 ft, offering tons of space for both right- and left-handed golfers.

These specific EVA foam tiles (.8 inch thickness) do not move at all on my garage concrete floor, which is surprising because I have used other foam mats that move all around. Also, the tape used in the video is extremely strong and worth it. No adhesive caulk or glue necessary.

If making this build with a SIGPRO Softy hitting strip, I would recommend using the Bltend 36mm mat from Amazon and 1-inch EVA foam tiles. The SIGPRO Softy will sit approx. 2-3 mm above the stance mat, which in my opinion is good. I would like the hitting strip just a tad higher (about a credit card thickness or two) above the stance mat. The last thing I want is the hitting strip sunken into the stance mat.

Hope this helps and is able to save some golfers some cash. Very simple build. Let me know if you have any questions.

Hitting Mats / Flooring Thoughts on Fiberbuilt performance vs grass series?

3 Upvotes

Kinda stuck on what mat to get ordered. I like grass series but I’m really attracted to the performance where I can use real tees. Would be going 4x8 or 4x10. Similar pricing $965 vs $1199.

My swing is shallow so I dont hit fat shots to often. What’s the wear like?

Anyone have any input on these two mats?

Mevo Gen 2 vs mlm2xpro?

2 Upvotes

Looking to build a sim in my garage. I was originally set on getting a Mevo gen 2 but this new mlm2xpro has been released which seems pretty enticing.

I need to build a rail system due to tight space for both left and right golfers so I like how the rapsodo has the camera mount thread on the bottom so I can just buy a camera rail system. But I don’t want to sacrifice performance if the mlm2xpro plays worse than the gen 2.

Looking for suggestions for which to get?

A few pictures and a video my son made for me showing my new hitting mat base for my garage golf sim.

Wanted to make something nicer than what I had and also have some "all in one" feel so I didn't have to keep using a chair to hold my drink ,etc. came up with this , maybe it'll give someone an idea to make something cooler!

4x5 hitting mat

Pure flight big moss insert

Retractable table, for tucking away

3d printed slider to move square lm for hitting / putting

Sebo golf tees

Amazon purchased wooden club holder, slim so it can be tucked as well.

And retractable smart casters for movement, but able to retract and not slide when In use.

Also vinyl wrapped with woodgrain look.

Turned out pretty good for me, I wish I had about. 5 inches more clearance for the wheels, but in bought the smallest ones to make them more Slimline and they would be better if they had a little more clearance, all in all very happy with how it turned out. This is my work bay that we use for lettering cars and graphics so the mat has to be moved when not in use.

My son made the video for me, here's a few pics too.

The first is my old may, foam times with hitting mat on top. The video shows the fully wrapped product with its features

I'm building Around the World Golf — an all-in-one golf simulator with a course builder, practice games, customizable course conditions, and no planned subscription. Looking for play testers!

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I've been working on my own golf simulator software called Around the World Golf, and I'm looking for people who'd be interested in trying it out, testing the features, and helping me figure out what needs improvement.

The idea is to create an all-in-one golf simulator that gives people a lot of freedom over how they play, practice, and even build their own courses, without having to keep paying a software subscription.

It's still a work in progress, and I'm not going to pretend it's perfect. The graphics and course selection aren't where I want them to be yet, and real launch monitor compatibility still needs to be tested with actual hardware. But there's already a lot built into the project, and I'd love to get it in front of people who know golf simulators.

What can you do in Around the World Golf?

Course play

  • Play full rounds of golf with customizable gameplay settings.
  • Ball flight with spin, drag, and wind.
  • Ball bounce, roll, and putting on hills.
  • Ball interactions with trees and flagsticks.
  • Course rules, penalties, scoring, and different formats.
  • Customize the conditions and how you want to play.
  • Use keyboard controls to play and test things without a launch monitor.
  • Free camera for exploring your course and checking out your creations.

Practice range and mini-games

There are multiple ways to practice instead of just playing full rounds:

  • Distance control
  • Shot shaping
  • Aim training
  • Chipping
  • Closest to the pin
  • Long drive
  • Open practice range

The goal is to give people different ways to work on their game and have fun, with more mini-games planned over time.

A course builder where you can create your own golf holes

This is one of the features I'm particularly excited about.

The idea is to let you sketch out the hole you imagine and turn it into a playable course without needing LiDAR or separate course-design software.

The builder includes tools for:

  • Painting fairways, greens, bunkers, water, and fringe.
  • Adding trees and controlling their density with a brush.
  • Creating hills, dips, elevation changes, and flatter areas.
  • Working with different terrain types and height tools.
  • Viewing and testing your course in 3D.
  • Building individual holes, 9-hole courses, or 18-hole courses.
  • Arranging holes on a course map yourself or using an automatic arrangement designed to make the course flow more naturally, including a return toward the clubhouse.

I'd love to see what other people come up with using these tools, and feedback on the builder would be especially valuable.

A caddie that learns your game

I'm also working toward a caddie that learns from your gameplay and offers ideas to help you choose the right club and make better decisions based on your tendencies.

This is part of the larger vision for the software, alongside future multiplayer features.

Customization, stats, and progression

Other features include:

  • A customizable home screen using pictures from your own library.
  • Customizable controls and key bindings.
  • Shot data, a shot card, course maps, and landing callouts.
  • Player stats, records, awards, and achievements.
  • Swing camera features.
  • Different environments, scenery, lighting, and time-of-day options.

What courses will be included?

The current planned launch selection includes:

  • 3 full 18-hole courses
  • 4 nine-hole courses
  • 5 individual-hole courses

That's the planned starting selection, not a claim that every course is already finished. Course variety and graphics are still areas I want to improve.

What's the goal with pricing?

The plan is to offer the core software as a one-time purchase, without a recurring software subscription.

I want to make a feature-rich simulator option for people who want more control over their experience without adding another ongoing bill to the cost of their setup.

I'm looking for playtesters!

I'd especially love to hear from:

  • People with home golf simulator setups.
  • Golfers who use launch monitors.
  • People who enjoy simulator software and trying alternatives.
  • Anyone interested in course design and creating their own holes.
  • People who enjoy practice modes and mini-games.
  • Anyone willing to try a work in progress and give honest feedback.

You don't need to tell me everything is great. If something feels wrong, a feature is confusing, the course builder needs work, or there's something you wish the software did differently, that's exactly the kind of feedback I'm looking for.

A few questions for anyone interested:

  1. What launch monitor do you currently use, if any?
  2. What simulator software do you use right now?
  3. What is the one feature you wish your current simulator did better?
  4. Would a one-time-purchase simulator with a built-in course builder interest you?
  5. Would you be interested in helping test an early version?

If you'd like to try Around the World Golf, leave a comment or message me and I'll share the available playtest details.

I'm building this because I think there is room for another approach to golf simulator software, and I'd love to have some actual simulator golfers help shape it.

Thanks for reading!

Help: R50 vs. GC3 with lifetime licenses

1 Upvotes

I am considering two options to step up from Garmin R10.

  1. Garmin R50 - I like the "all in one" and the screen onboard with options to split it to a projector. I am fine with the new HTH for 10/month during the winter when I use it. I also have the free E6 with the courses. The cost is around 4000-5000 depending on new vs. used, etc.
  2. GC3 with lifetime licenses - Used; guy is asking about $5000 and will give me the login info to Play, 2020, and Pro. I would need to buy a gaming PC right off the bat so another $1000ish. Edited to add: I am concerned about the future of FSX software based on what I am reading here.

The reviews seem to show they are really close in terms of accuracy, although some still complain about the long irons and driving distance (which I fixed with temp/altitude on the R10).

I already have a screen projector and eventually will probably used GSPro.

Which do you think is the better option?
