Launchpad Professional Golf Simulator

A new product package from Costco aims to bring Golf into your living or office. The Launchpad Professional Golf Simulator is a small patch of fake grass with a tethered golf ball on it. The actual simulator works with PC, Mac, and PS2 (and with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2003 through 2006), but the Tiger Woods game that is bundled with the simulator will only work on PC. Simply take a golf club of your own and start swinging away.

The simulator will convert the real-life shot to parameters for the game’s simulation. Factors include club head speed, angle, and path of the shot. An 8 foot USB cable is included — And lefties don’t worry, both right and left handed people can use it.
