SkyTrak's numbers

  • The ST MAX sits beside the ball, not behind you, so it fits garages, basements and spare rooms.
  • Put the ball on the red laser dot. The hitting zone is about 4 x 4 in. One reviewer places the unit about 18 in beside the ball.
  • SkyTrak says a golfer needs at least a 9 ft ceiling and 10 ft of width to swing a driver.
  • SkyTrak's smallest studio needs a room at least 15 ft deep. SkyTrak calls 17 ft deep and 12 ft wide comfortable.
  • SkyTrak gives no distance from the ball to the net or screen.

What it measures

According to reviewers

  • Ball speed
  • Launch angle
  • Back spin
  • Side spin
  • Side angle
  • Club head speed
  • Club path
  • Face angle

What it works out

According to reviewers

  • Carry distance
  • Total distance
  • Descent angle
  • Shot shape
  • Smash factor
  • Face-to-path
NOTE

SkyTrak does not publish a full split. It says the camera and radar measure ball and club data on every swing. Carry, total, descent angle and shot shape come from its ball flight model. The rest of this split is our reading of SkyTrak's pages.

Questions people ask

Sheet F-1 · Questions
What is the difference between the ST MAX and the SkyTrak+?

The ST MAX adds Speed Training from GOLFTEC, two USB ports and a new internal design. Reviewers say the tracking, size and data are the same as the SkyTrak+. SkyTrak no longer sells the SkyTrak+.

Sources: skytrakgolf.com, breakingeighty.com, skytrakgolf.com

Does the ST MAX need a subscription?

For most features, yes. Practice tools need Essential at $99.99 a year. Course play needs Core at $299.99 or $349.99 a year, or Elite at $599.99 a year. The box has a 14-day Essential trial.

Sources: skytrakgolf.com, playbetter.com

How much room do I need for the ST MAX?

It sits beside the ball, so you need no room behind you for it. SkyTrak says a golfer needs at least a 9 ft ceiling and 10 ft of width. Its smallest studio needs a room 15 ft deep.

Sources: skytrakgolf.com, skytrakgolf.com

Can I use the ST MAX outdoors?

SkyTrak lists the ST MAX for indoor use. One reviewer says outdoors it works only off a mat, not off grass. Keep direct sun out of the lens.

Sources: skytrakgolf.com, golfersauthority.com, resources.skytrakgolf.com

Does the ST MAX work with GSPro?

Not officially. GSPro does not list SkyTrak as a supported launch monitor. SkyTrak's own app has course play with Foresight and Trackman courses.
