How virtual golf simulators can help summer golfers

With the summer months fast approaching, plenty of golfers will be looking forward to gearing up and heading out to their favourite golf clubs, with lots of delightful weather to be had.

But just because summer traditionally represents bright sunshine and warm temperatures, that doesn’t mean these conditions are always ideal for playing golf. Especially if you live in a climate where temperatures can go off the scale.

That’s where virtual golf simulators come in. Far more than a digital driving range, the Trackman Golf Simulator is a fun, exciting and easy alternative to golf courses, helping players everywhere squeeze in some much-needed practice to perfect their golf swing without ever heading outside. Meaning the temperature and playing conditions can be kept completely under control.

With the most accurate shot metrics in the golf industry whatever golf club you use, and plenty of real-life courses to explore, you can enjoy the full golf experience from the privacy of your own home, your office, or wherever your Trackman simulator fits in your life best, if you’re not the biggest fan of the summer climate.

At Black Box Golf, we’re home to the very best Trackman golf products. The ones used by the world’s greatest players to sharpen their golf game when they can’t fit in a full eighteen holes, so you know you’ll be using the very best products. With this in mind, here are a few ways virtual golf simulators help summer golfers.

How virtual golf simulators can keep golfers on track in the summer months

Avoid extreme sun or summer downpours

Most golfers are happy to step onto the tee when the sun is at its brightest and hottest. But those with a troubling reaction to the sun (for example, those who burn easily) may wish to avoid days when the sun is at its most powerful.

During long stretches of glorious weather, these golfers may not get as much chance to practice as they would like, for fear of getting sunburned, feeling dehydrated or, even worse, catching sunstroke.

That’s why the Trackman Golf Simulator can be such a relief for golfers during these particularly bright spells. With a Trackman simulator, golfers can enjoy the freedom and relaxed feeling they experience when playing in ideal conditions, all from the comfort of their own home or wherever they choose to host their simulator setup.

Not only this, but the same is true at the opposite end of the spectrum; summer can be notorious for unexpected downpours, throwing countless golfers’ plans into disarray. But why let that pesky rain get in the way of making progress? With a Trackman Golf Simulator, you can still swing to your heart’s content without having to worry about the next storm cloud rolling in over the hills.

Plus, thanks to the addition of pinpoint launch monitors and Doppler radar technology, golfers can still see precise results as to where their golf balls land - or would have landed on a physical course. 

Controlled environment

Whether we have smashing sunshine and a cool breeze, or drizzling rain and strong gusts, golfers everywhere are at the mercy of the elements whenever they step out onto the course. In the case of summer, it helps when the sun stays bright and temperatures stay relatively level, so we can rest easy knowing changes in the conditions won’t affect the way we play.

But what happens if the temperature does suddenly skyrocket? Or if a rainy spell appears out of nowhere, as it so often does in the summer? We may be able to still enjoy a full round, but our scores might not reflect the best of our ability, given the unpredictability of our environment.

Luckily, there’s a very easy way to enjoy a continuously controlled environment, so you can focus on lowering your scores with the least possible distraction from summer weather fluctuations - the Trackman Virtual Golf Simulator.

Because it’s housed indoors, the Trackman Golf Simulator keeps you immune from extreme heat, torrential downpours, and everything in between, offering you the most accurate view possible of your scores and your progress without interference.

Better still, depending on where you host your Trackman simulator, you may even have more in-depth control over your playing conditions than others. Is the room a little stuffy? Simply turn on the AC or a nearby fan to cool yourself down. Or, if you’re on the chilly side, turn the heating on for a few minutes to warm yourself through.

Either way, whatever your ideal playing conditions are, you can get as close to them as humanly possible with a Trackman simulator.
