Welcome back to "Golf Life." We're inside the "Golf Life" studio. And folks, we've got our ForeSight, Falcon, and our PuttView, two of the leading companies in golf technology. Come along. I want to show you some amazing integration between these two great systems. So we're playing a par three today. We've got Reese on the tee. A pretty good stroke there. And he just misses it, so he'll have to putt or chip off of that lie. Jake's on the tee trying to hit it into this par three here, 171. Oh, a little over the top. Pulled it a bit. So neither one of them on the green at the moment, so they got to play up. Oh, what a play. Okay, Reese back up on the tee. He's got just a little chip up here. You can see how interactive ForeSight is. It really is great. So as you can see, Jake's got a shot on his PuttView, which is the exact same shot on the ForeSight, which was that great chip up. Let's see how he does here. And it tracks his ball straight into the cup. And now you can see that the PuttView is setting up for Reese's shot in a completely different spot. So PuttView is interpolating, and it's giving us a full representation of exactly what that putt would... That is a downhill putt with a little bit of a right to left. And he sinks that. So great putters, great players. And it puts the score right up on the PuttView, which is really a cool interactive feature. So they're back over to the ForeSight. Now, folks, you can do this like we have done where you have a separate green, this nice large green, if you have enough space, and then have a simulator with the ForeSight. And you use the FSX Play software, and that integrates with your PuttView. And you can put your PuttView into your actual enclosure simulator area. Your group can play in that small setting. So if you have a home simulator set up, you could get those great launch monitors from ForeSight, integrate that, bring your PuttView right into your environment, and now you're playing golf on the golf course. It's awesome because there's so many courses to choose from the FSX Play software. And then when you add the PuttView, the PuttView integrates, and it just ties together with the two systems really easily. It was a super easy setup for us. And the PuttView immediately talked to it. Once you hit it on the green, it gives you the putt. So here you can see while I've been talking, Reese hit a putt on a flatter green, so now he has a putt here on a 0% slope, which is a pretty dead straight putt, but it's the distance that he hit it to the cup on the ForeSight. And he's a pretty good putter, this kid. He's putting the pressure back on Jake here. So what's Jake's putt like? Well, it looks like Jake was pretty good at actually hitting the ball right at the pin. So he's got an uphill putt because that's about a 3.5% grade up there where he's at, and he just knocks that in, boom, and now they're tied. So they can continue playing. And like I say, your setup can be very easy. You can have your enclosure, have your PuttView integrated into your simulator, and have your ForeSight with the software and the two computers talking together, and it's really an awesome, easy integration. I really enjoy sharing with you guys the technology, and obviously PuttView and ForeSight are great partners bringing great technology to the game of golf. And we will be back with more "Golf Life" in just a moment.
