Tuesday evening, January 7th 2025 will either go down in history as just another day or become forever remembered for the first - slightly awkward - airing of the new indoor arena golf league from Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. TGL (TMRW Golf League) has been in the news a lot in the past few weeks, and there was no way to really know whether or not the whole thing would come together for a live ... [ Read More ]

After quite a few reviews, it seems the Garmin R50 is both accurate and revolutionary
While we've not been lucky enough to get our hands on the awesome, new Garmin R50 launch monitor, there are quite a few indoor golf-related YouTubers that have taken it for a spin. And after each of them has tried it out, the resulting consensus seems clear: the Garmin R50 is legit, accurate, and a bit of a game changer for the right person. We talked about it already in our original post when ... [ Read More ]
Get the Bushnell Launch Pro for just $1749 right now!
I try not to play favorites, but I can't help myself sometimes. I've tried a lot of launch monitors over the years, and I always came back to the Bushnell Launch Pro in the end. It's the most accurate launch monitor I've ever owned, and in our simulator bay, it continues to deliver quick, precise shot measurements every day for every member that comes by the facility. Indoors, there's no ... [ Read More ]
Behold, the new Garmin R50 golf simulator is here to show the world how it’s done
Well, I didn't have this on my bingo card this week. Did you? The long-rumored Garmin R50 all of the sudden became a reality yesterday, and I haven't been able to stop watching every single video I can about this new golf simulator/launch monitor since I heard the news. I knew Garmin was working on the R50 and that it would be way more capable than the R10, but I doubt anyone other than those ... [ Read More ]

Dangerous heat doesn’t mean your golf game needs to stop
Holy moly it's hot outside today. In a heat wave we knew was coming, there's little you can do besides hunker down inside and wait it out. When it's 93° out and the weather apps all say (rightly so) that it feels like 101°, the last thing many of us want to do is trudge out to the golf course and try to get in 18 holes or hit the range. But what if you were in the middle of a swing ... [ Read More ]
Why you should consider a private golf simulator membership
Golfers love to golf. Period. I know it, you know it; we all know it. Rain or shine, cold or hot, if you love the game of golf, it's always on your mind. Of course, in the spring and summer months, that generally means you want to be out in the fresh air with your golf bag strapped on a cart, rumbling down a fairway in pursuit of your next great shot. But when the weather isn't so great - ... [ Read More ]
Proof Golf Club Elizabethtown is now open for business
It's an exciting time here at Proof Golf as we now have our first physical location open and ready to begin accepting memberships! From the beginning with Proof Golf, we've wanted to foster a community around simulator golf and having physical locations is definitely part of that plan. While we get excited about simulator golf in all shapes and forms, the version of it that is most compelling to ... [ Read More ]
Can the Garmin Approach R10 keep up with the Bushnell Launch Pro? [TESTED]
Let me be clear right up front: I really love the Bushnell Launch Pro. Even at the standard $3000 (you can also get the ball-data-only for $1999 as well), this launch monitor continually amazes me with how well it tracks the golf ball, how little it misses, and how easy it is to work with. If you are looking for one of the best options to put at the heart of your simulator setup, it's hard to go ... [ Read More ]
Why the Bushnell Launch Pro at $1999.99 for ball-only tracking is awesome
I've had my Bushnell Launch Pro for quite some time now, and I can tell you without question it is the most accurate, easiest to use, most reliable launch monitor I've ever owned. And though I paid quite a bit more than what it goes for these days, I don't regret it one bit. The day will come when I part ways with this trusty launch monitor, but it won't be without some serious sadness. It has ... [ Read More ]
Garmin Approach R10 gets far more accurate with Titleist RCT balls [TESTED]
A little while back, Titleist launched the new RCT ball that is built for better radar-based tracking. We decided to give these balls a shot with the Garmin Approach R10, since Garmin has added support for the radar-specific golf balls. The question many of you are likely wondering, however, is pretty clear: do these rather-expensive balls actually help the R10 be more accurate? And after some ... [ Read More ]
Yes, you can bend your left (lead) arm in the golf swing and still flush it
If you happen to have been following along on all our short form video channels (Reels, TikTok, Shorts, X), you know that I've been working on completely overhauling my swing. Coming from years and years of studying the Single Plane Swing of Moe Norman (taught in rigorous detail by Todd Graves), this change is a fundamentally big one for me. The Easiest Swing (based on teachings from Brian ... [ Read More ]
The Chip Caddie is a small, fun golf simulator with a short game focus
When you think of a golf simulator, a few things likely come to mind. High ceilings, large rooms, and purpose-built spaces that can accommodate an indoor golfing experience. While many of us (me included) can't fit a full-blown simulator in our home, there's a new player in the golf simulator game that is attempting to bridge the gap and get people playing golf indoors regardless of their space ...

This net and screen look perfect for a simple, affordable golf simulator setup
Sure, we have a nice, large hitting bay in the office here at Proof Golf (we wouldn't be much of a content creator focused on golf simulators without one, would we?), but I always have eyes on smaller, simpler setups as well. My beginnings with golf simulators dictates that I keep sights on affordable, nimble setups to help others also get started on their journey. And this net at Amazon has me ... [ Read More ]
Tiger and Timberlake open “T-Squared” NYC sports bar equipped with golf simulators

This massive 22,000 square-foot arena, covering an entire city block, celebrated its opening on September 20, just in time for the Ryder Cup. But this isn't just ... [ Read More ]
Bushnell Launch Pro vs. Uneekor EYE MINI: why we’re making the switch
The world of launch monitors and home golf simulators is growing by the day, and that means more options are becoming available to the average consumer looking to either start a full simulator setup or simply have a tool at their side when making a regular trip to the driving range. From $500 options to $25,000 beasts, there's a little something for everyone in the market. But there are two ... [ Read More ]

GS Pro leagues and tours have taken simulator golf to the next level for me
I'm pretty addicted to golf, and I'd be willing to bet that if you are on this website, you likely are too. It's a wildly-gripping game we love and play, appealing at the same time to the one striking it well and the one struggling to find their swing. Whether you are new to the game or have been at it for years, there's an allure to golf that supersedes any other competitive sport or game I've ... [ Read More ]
