Read the review →Frequently asked questions
Is SkyTrak+ suitable for indoor use?
See the compatibility matrix above. Indoor performance depends on the measurement technology, available room depth and careful setup.
Can it power a golf simulator?
Yes where shown as simulator-ready, but software, computer and subscription requirements vary. Check the full cost rather than the hardware price alone.
Should I choose radar or camera technology?
Radar usually offers strong portability and outdoor flexibility, while camera products often suit tighter indoor spaces. The room should drive the decision.
Is a subscription required?
Hardware use and simulator software are separate considerations. Review current plans before buying because ongoing costs can materially change value.
Current buying position
SkyTrak+ remains relevant for owners and used or remaining-stock comparisons, but new buyers should compare ST MAX and other current alternatives first.
Plan the complete setup
A launch monitor is only one part of a successful simulator. Check the room, budget and compatible components before committing.
