Here at Stone Tree, we love having a Golf Simulator as part of our course. What is a Golf Simulator exactly? Well, it is an indoor virtual golf setup made up of an enclosure, screen and technology to analyze your swing!
Whether you are brand new to golf or an experienced pro, the golf simulator can be a great addition to your game.We asked our new golf pro, Phil Hidden, for his Top 3 Reasons why using the golf simulator in the off season can help improve your golf game and here is what he said:
1. Continuity – Keep Playing All Year Round
During the winter months in Ontario, using a golf simulator can be a great way to keep your swing and game in shape. You don’t have to worry about the weather, wind, or other environmental factors. Everything is consistent and controlled. You can use the simulator to practice or play a variety of different golf course options. When you are able to consistently play and practice your golf game, you never have to worry about getting rusty by taking a long break from the course during those cold winter months.
2. Real Time Analytics
While practicing on a driving range is important, it is not conducive to giving you feedback on how you are hitting the ball. A golf simulator is a solution to that issue. Simulators provide you with accurate real time analytics. You can see the distances you hit with each club. The simulator can show you the shape of each shot to help identify a slice or a hook that you can correct. You can even get more detailed metrics such as ball speed, club speed, spin rate, face angle, and more. When you can drill down into those specifics, you learn what you can improve and work on while you practice.
3. Golf Pro On-Site
Not sure what all that simulator data means? A golf pro on-site can help you understand the metrics and suggest areas of your game that need work. The pro can offer some advice and tips to help you improve your practice regimen, ultimately leading to a more enjoyable golf experience.
