Golf Central BNE has launched the first Toptracer Range in Australia, so we thought it would be helpful to give you the answers to the Toptracer FAQs!
What is Toptracer?
Toptracer provides the most advanced ball-tracking technology in golf. It uses the same technology that tracks and displays ball flight in real-time during the television broadcasts of tournaments on the PGA and LPGA Tours. It tracks ball speed, accuracy and distance of every shot, allowing there to be modes and games to suit all ages and skill level. With 6 games to choose from players can pick whether to play for fun or for practice.
How does the technology work?
Topracer shows the flight path of golf balls with valuable shot data in real-time tracking. Each golf ball hit on the range is tracked by custom-built sensors that provide real-time shot analytics, like ball speed, apex, curve, carry and more. The virtual graphics are animate to broadcast to your hitting bay.
How will affect my membership?
Toptracer will not affect your membership. We will still honour all our commitments, if anything your membership just gets better now you have access to the Toptracer Range. We have even made range passes exclusive to members, giving you an extra perk!
Can I still use my range passes if I am not a member?
You will still be able to use all your previously purchased range passes. However to purchase new range passes you will need to become a Golf Central BNE member.
Do you have to pay for the Toptracer app?
