How does the autoputt work?

its circles that can't be adjusted, and outside the second circle is a three putt, so you find yourself hoping you just barely miss a green so you can chip to the one putt circle and save a stroke rather than take a 3 putt. If you enable putting you can adjust the 1 putt gimme circle, but you can't make any adjustment to the 1,2,3 putt areas if you disable putting.

Welcome to most simulator golf setups. It's the same with GS PRO. If I remember correctly Trackman maxes at two putts, but I am not for sure as it has been a while.

On the eye mini lite I've found putting to be reliable

Exactly the same on Rapsodo MLM2Pro except you can set the the 1 putt and 2 putt circle distances to whatever you want. It's auto set to 10' and 30'.

Thank you above on the 20% off tip. I ordered the R50 last Friday and got it Wednesday. Looks like they finally caught it right after I ordered. Had a friend try that evening and it was no longer valid, although he got the 15% "sign up for new customer marketing texts" promotion to work so he got $750 off.

I moved on from my OG skytrak that I bought 5 years ago at the start of covid. My setup is on our patio and a camera setup next to the ball is a must, and this rig is perfect with HDMI to my patio TV. I'd been considering Bushnell, but dropping $3500 for the ball and club data, then still needing a gaming computer and needing 2 subscriptions for $750 per year to unlock GSPro was just something I could not convince myself was worth it.

Findings so far:
- 4 days in, I've found the accuracy spot on for me. Ball flight mirrors my real flight; my misses look like my misses. Not seeing distance issues, but if someone needed, altitude, temp, and humidity can all be adjusted to really dial it in

- No missed shots or chips so far, or any "wtf?" shots

- Garmin seems to be taking all the feedback they are receiving and are sending down software updates

- HTH is a big upgrade from the R10 version and I love all the course options. Good to know GSPro is still an option, but not feeling the need to do it. If I do, at least no $500 monitor subscription needed like bushnell

- I have putted on a lot of sims and don't care for any of them, so I'm not your guy for that review. I do like how the HTH auto-putt works although adjustability would be a nice feature. That said, I don't know that I'd adjust it. But I bet they add a software update for that

If you'll have other people or kids hitting in the sim i'd suggest an additional side net on the right to even with the hitting matt or a matt on the wall to protect the sheetrock.

It happens.

I have some padding that I'm planning to install, just haven't had a chance yet. Good thought for sure! And not just for the kids…I'm prone to find the snap fade every once in a while too

What is the size of the room? And the dimensions of the enclosure please?

I have a similar room look so I'm curious if our situations are similar .

Did you go with a specific software package?

The room is 14x20. The vertical walls are 8ft high and the tallest part of the ceiling is 12ft. The enclosure is 11'10" x 8'2"

I went with the Garmin R50 which has its own built in software pre-loaded, but also will allow you to download and use E6 or GSPro.

Keep in mind that if you want to run GSPro with the R50 you'll still need a pretty decent gaming computer.

Currently planning to use my son's gaming laptop, but that could change if we end up needing a dedicated unit.

It's been interesting learning the technology side of sims. It's not my strongpoint even though I worked in the world of 3D modeling and construction drawing software.

When I was researching the common theme appears to be recommending a much more higher level of gaming system / video card (and cost) than appears to be needed.

Same for Rapsodo / Square / R50 internal systems to run the high / max settings. Most things said you needed a gaming tablet or a high end IPad. And my Samsung S23 Ultra phone powers the high setting of the MLM2Pro without any issues.

That's my experience as well. I got a used gaming laptop w/ minimum specs and haven't had any issues running E6 or GSPro with my skytrak.

Not running anything in 4k, but also don't have the need
