Simulators are great any time of year.
The new golf simulators can teach a golfer more in ten minutes than an hour outside. Just one swing can show correct and incorrect swing mechanics. The key is to have a quality golf instructor interpreting the high-tech information.
The main benefit of utilizing a golf simulator versus the range is, information on the simulator can be explained to the student, such as ball backspin, sidespin, clubhead speed, trajectory and launch angle.
When a golfer hits at the range, they must contend with humidity, wind, and other outdoor elements. In contrast, a simulator is a controlled environment compared to a laboratory, storing information that can be used to evaluate and improve one’s swing.
The new high-tech simulators are very accurate and reliable when used by an experienced golf instructor.
Don’t forget to enjoy this great game called golf.
