Who each one is better for
Honest persona fit, side by side.
Better for SkyTrak+
- Cost-Effective Buyer
Most retailers now list the current-gen ST MAX at $1,695 against this closeout's $1,995, so the newer unit is both cheaper and the better buy. The closeout's advantage is retailer-specific rather than gone: PlayBetter has held it at $1,495 since early July, which is $500 off the same sensor platform while residual stock lasts.
- Space-Constrained
Sits beside the ball — works in rooms as shallow as 10–14 feet, where radar units fail.
Both fit
- Recreational Player
- Family Setup
