What is Toptracer?

Toptracer is the leading technology in golf for practice and entertainment. Toptracer technology gives you the ability to trace your shot angle, speed, spin, and distance. With the Toptracer App you can view your shots, select clubs, and view data to get the full picture. You can play in Practice Mode, or choose from a selection of game modes to play with friends.

TOPTRACER SYSTEM
As amazing as the Toptracer system is, there could be an occasional false read. If you believe there is a false read, please refer to the below:

Agree with your playing partner that there was in fact a bad read, which may constitute:

  • Picking up a shot from the adjacent bay

  • Ball ricochet leading to a misread bounce

*On your scorecard, there will be a misread section where you can write down any misread shots.
