First Time Tips
Things to do before arrival
-
Clean clubs and balls: We require clubs and balls to be clean prior to using the facility. Not only will this improve the quality of your data, but it helps to keep the hitting matts and impact screens clean and reduce wear. Please use balls that are in good condition, free of chips and marks that could damage the impact screens.

GCQuad information
Visit https://www.foresightsports.com/support/hardware/gcquad for questions about the GCQuad launch monitor, or see the booklet in the facility.
Club head data: In order to get club head data for your swing, such as club head speed, angle of attack, smash factor, and so on, you will need to place club head markers on your club. Club head markers and instructions on marker placement are available in the facility. To enable club tracking on the GCQuad, press the OK button to open the menu, press OK on Tracking Mode, and ensure Club is ON. The ready indicator on the launch monitor will change from blue to green when club tracking mode is enabled.
Simulator Software
Playing Golf: We recommend the FSX Play software for playing simulated golf. FSX Play has incredibly realistic graphics that make it a much more immersive experience.
Practicing: We recommend the FSX 2020 software for practicing. FSX 2020 has many different settings to show the data you need about your swing to help you improve. Make sure to use club head markers and put the GCQuad into club tracking mode for extra data.
Golf Games: The Foresight Fairgrounds has many different carnival games for a different way to experience the fun of golf. Kids especially enjoy playing the different challenges.
