About this product
The package includes the SKYTRAK ST MAX Launch Monitor with dual Doppler radar and photometric cameras, an enclosure with high-impact stretch screen, a 5x5 hitting mat with true-turf feel, and seamlessly embedded putting turf for authentic short-game practice. The included GT2000HDR projector delivers 3,500 lumens of Full HD brightness with a compact, short-throw laser design and ultra-low latency for a seamless, realistic course experience.
The ST+ Protective Case can withstand impacts from ball strikes at speeds up to 100 mph, and the ball tray holds up to 100 balls and includes a built-in cellphone holder. The studio comes in four adaptable size packages to fit any space.
The ST MAX uses dual Doppler radar combined with a high-speed photometric camera, measuring both ball and club data at impact without stickers or special balls. The system is accurate, reliable, offers polished software, native Mac support, and is indoor and outdoor capable. The ST MAX supports game improvement tools including skills assessments, bag mapping, randomized practice, and a wedge matrix for dialing in scoring clubs.
The core performance of the SkyTrak ST MAX is identical to the SkyTrak+, providing the same ball and clubhead data from dual Doppler radar and the same software ecosystem with shot optimizer, skills assessments, wedge matrix, and full simulation support. The ST MAX includes GOLFTEC Speed Training—a structured speed training module developed in partnership with GOLFTEC that guides you through drills with real-time feedback and is the main functional reason to choose ST MAX over ST+.
