A letter from Mr. Roman
Dear our PRO!
Mr. Roman approached us with a request for a suggestion on what device, at a reasonable price, could constitute the heart of the simulator.
TRACKMAN is out of the question because it is out of budget and too sophisticated.
Can you please create a list of items that take into account the indoor use of the equipment and the beginner player?SIM|GOLF Team.
