Why winter coaching plans are simplified with a Trackman Golf Simulator

Winter can be a trying time for people involved in most major sports. But outdoor sports, like golf, always suffer the most.

Not just because of the changing weather conditions, but because some sportsmen and women seem far less engaged, or available, during this period - could it be the ‘winter blues’?

Either way, if you’re a golf club professional and you’re looking for new and exciting ways to keep your students enamoured with the game of golf over the winter period, indoor golf with a virtual golf simulator may be exactly what you need.

Specifically, the Trackman Golf Simulator can offer a fresh perspective on the sport, as well as unique insights into technique and execution that may not have been as obvious before (more on those in a moment).

With this in mind, let’s explore the advantages the Trackman Golf Simulator can provide when you’re formulating your winter coaching plans.]

What is the Trackman Golf Simulator?

The sport’s premier virtual golfing solution, the Trackman simulator lets golfers of all experience levels enjoy a realistic virtual golfing experience from almost anywhere.

Utilising dual radar technology, the player will strike the ball into a launch monitor, which presents an ultra-realistic scan of a real-life golf course.

The monitor will then analyse the impact, as well as factors including power, angle, spin and more, to offer a pinpoint-accurate representation of where the ball would have landed on the fairway (or the rough!) in real-life play.

For the most realistic experience possible, you can even create bespoke weather conditions and timings within the simulation, helping you get to grips with how this may affect your performance on a real golf course.

The advantages of the Trackman Golf Simulator in winter golf coaching

Realistic virtual golfing experiences

During a teaching session with your golfing students, you may wish to dive into a more thorough coaching experience than usual, but don’t have the time to play several holes. 

This is especially true in winter when many golfing students are keen to squeeze in as many lessons as possible before the Christmas break.

However, with the Trackman Golf Simulator, your students can enjoy a more well-rounded golfing experience without the need for you to move from hole to hole.

Because the Trackman simulator presents accurate and realistic progression between shots, simulating various scenarios golfers would encounter on real-life fairways, you can save time and effort by moving your lessons from the tee to the Trackman simulator.

This way, during particularly busy spells, you’ll be able to help more learners master the basics and improve their technique, all without losing precious time putting one foot in front of the other.

Customisable golf courses and conditions

If variety is what your students seek during the winter months, sticking to the same driving range or hole during their lessons may prove to be a bit of a bore, especially if the weather conditions aren’t favourable.

Nothing makes for more of a dreary day on the course than hitting the same shot over and over again in the cold and rain.

In scenarios like these, the Trackman Golf Simulator can be a godsend.

Thanks to the mass of pre-loaded golf courses - over 300 to be exact - you’ll never run out of eye-catching and aesthetically pleasing golf courses to keep your learners entertained and enthralled.

One minute, they could be playing amongst the peaks and valleys of the Scottish Highlands. The next, they could be partaking in some fun in the sun at one of Miami’s most iconic golfing locations. The choice is theirs, and yours!

This is always a memorable coaching session for students, given they’re able to experience some of the same golf courses made famous by their favourite golfing heroes. The perfect escape from the winter chill.
