Launch Monitors & Simulators
No. Foresight's GC3S, the subscription version of the GC3, is discontinued (October 2026) and we no longer sell it. The GC3 is the same three-camera unit without the subscription lock: core ball and club data are free on Foresight+, with a 30-day Foresight+ trial; Premier course play after that costs from $494 a year (Silver $199 plus Course Pass $295), and GSPro or E6 need Foresight+ Gold ($599 a year). It is LINK-enabled for the Bushnell Pro X3 rangefinder (sold separately) and works indoors and outdoors.
Yes! All our photometric launch monitors work perfectly in both environments. Indoors they connect to golf simulator software for year-round practice. Outdoors you can take them to the range for real-ball data. The cameras automatically adapt to different lighting conditions without any setup changes.
It depends on the brand. Foresight units run Foresight Premier with a 30-day Foresight+ trial (course play from $494 a year); the Garmin R50 has Home Tee Hero built in (Garmin Golf membership £89.99 a year for courses); FlightScope Mevo Gen2 includes 8 E6 Connect courses for life; Square Golf works on pay-as-you-play credits with no subscription. Third-party software such as GSPro ($250 a year) and E6 Connect is sold separately, and some brands also need their own plan to connect to it.
Minimum recommended space is 10 feet wide, 9 feet high, and 12 feet deep. This allows comfortable full swings with all clubs. Taller golfers may need 10ft ceilings. You can work with less space by using shorter clubs or modifying your swing.
Our premium launch monitors use photometric camera technology trusted by PGA Tour professionals with ball speed accuracy within 1 percent, spin rate within 3 percent, and launch angle within 0.5 degrees. This is professional-grade accuracy for serious game improvement.
Golf Practice Nets & Enclosures
Setup time varies by model. Pop-up nets take under 2 minutes. Standard frame nets take 10-15 minutes with no tools required. Professional enclosures take 1-2 hours with two people. All nets include detailed instructions and required hardware.
Yes! Our nets are rated for high-impact use with premium nets rated for 150+ mph ball speeds, impact baffle netting with double-layer protection, and reinforced frames engineered for repeated full-power shots. We sell only archery-grade impact netting designed for thousands of shots.
Most nets are weather-resistant with UV-treated materials. For covered use expect 5-7 year lifespan. For uncovered outdoor use expect 2-3 year lifespan. We recommend bringing nets inside during extreme weather like high winds or heavy snow to maximize lifespan.
Impact screens are dual purpose (hitting surface plus projection screen) made of 4-way stretch fabric, best for dedicated simulator rooms, priced £300 to £1,500. Practice nets are single purpose for ball capture only, best for outdoor practice or budget setups, priced £100 to £800.
Golf Trolleys & Accessories
Battery range depends on model and terrain. Standard 18-hole batteries last 18-27 holes on flat courses. Extended 28Ah batteries last 36-54 holes. On hilly courses expect 30-40 percent less range. Charge fully before each round and use lower speed settings to maximize battery life.
Most modern electric trolleys fold compactly to typical dimensions of 80cm by 45cm by 35cm. This fits most hatchbacks, sedans, and SUVs. Motocaddy M-Series trolleys feature ultra-compact folding specifically designed for smaller vehicles.
Yes, electric trolleys are weather-resistant but not waterproof. They are safe in light to moderate rain and electronics are splash-resistant. Do not submerge in water or use during thunderstorms. After wet rounds, wipe down electronics and dry battery contacts.
Shipping & Delivery
Delivery is calculated at checkout based on the size and weight of your order. Larger items like golf cages, mats and simulator enclosures are bulky deliveries and carry a delivery charge, which you'll see clearly before you pay. Most orders are delivered within 3–5 working days across UK mainland.
