Room planner
See each one in your sim room.
The planner draws each unit to scale with your room and your swing: where it sits, and whether your swing clears the ceiling, walls and screen. Put in your room once, then switch units in the planner to compare.

Better for SkyTrak+
- Cost-Effective Buyer
The cheapest new camera-plus-radar SkyTrak while closeout stock lasts: $1,095, about $600 under the current ST MAX at $1,695. What the saving costs you is a hitting zone about a quarter the area, a discontinued model's support runway, and limited stock.
- Recreational Player
Polished software ecosystem, easy on/off, native Mac and iPad support (M1 or newer). The forgiving choice for non-technical users.
- Family Setup
Polished SkyTrak software is approachable for non-technical users; ambidextrous play needs only a unit move, not recalibration. Native Mac and iPad apps (M-series, M1 or newer) work for a household using either platform.
- Space-Constrained
Sits beside the ball, so it needs no ball-flight depth the way radar does. SkyTrak's room guide asks for at least 12 ft of length and 10 ft of width, and recommends 15 ft each way; its FAQ says 10 ft and its Studio 10 enclosure diagram 17. Our room planner plans on 18 ft: a foot behind the screen, the ball at SkyTrak's recommended 10 ft from it, and the 7 ft behind the tee Shop Indoor Golf and Carl's Place advise.
