Foresight GC2 vs Square Omni vs SkyTrak ST MAX

Three camera-led launch monitors at around £1,500–£2,000. They cost about the same, but they measure different things and charge differently for simulator golf. That decides the choice more than price.

Choose the GC2 if

The total cost matters more than the unit

For a home simulator, the launch monitor is often less than half the bill. Add an impact screen or net, a hitting mat, a projector and, for GSPro, a gaming PC, plus any yearly software. Over three years, the GC2's Foresight+ course plan can add more than the difference in hardware price.
