As it will be a mobile setup which can be hooked onto any beamer in any existing indoor simulator venue (with the usual crappy simulators), there also could be one in other locations.. (Paris, London, Barcelona, Stockholm?)
Amsterdam Venue/ Tournament info
-Full bar / restaurant.
-3 Fullswing simulators for warming up
-1 GC2 simulator for event. (Awesome, perfect speed/spin/ballflight model, best player wins)

-Max 24 players.

Pre-registering via responding to this thread. / facebook / email (martijn at dutchitsolutions.nl)Please do mention your real name if you have a vague alter-ego on this website...
I am working on a sweet hotel deal, will update this post on that later.Serious suggestions welcome. (Not too funny in this thread, i really want to make this a success)
My main focus for this first event is creating concensus between longdrivers that an indoor event can be great with a actual simulator that is true to feel and very precise.I know all other simulators out there so far are just fun things, i've tried them all. I would never organize a serious event on those.
ps1
All players will receive afterwards a full history of all their shot data. (ballspeeds, launch angles, spin-numbers)
You will be confronted with your real numbers though, no gimmies... So all people claiming those 210+mph ballspeeds from a fullswing / HDgolf simulators and 150mph ss from those ss-readers be ready for your real Trackman/GC2 numbers.... ;-)
ps2 Please do mention if you are a lefty!
