Better for Hawkeye
- Performance Seeker
A calibrated overhead install with high-frame-rate cameras and full club data, at a price under the Uneekor and Foresight overhead options. The AI-modeled numbers are the tradeoff to weigh — strong in aggregate, less proven than a raw-optics flagship.
- Showroom
The clean overhead look for a dedicated room without stepping up to five figures. Floor stays clear, no subscription of its own, reads both-handed players for a shared room.
