Golf is one of those games where it’s difficult to improve without real-life practice. But this TruGolf Mini Golf Simulator helps you practice your swing — and enjoy beautifully rendered virtual courses — without going to the range in person.

It’s a futuristic way to enjoy the game of golf without gambling on clear weather (or spending money on green fees). It’s fun, it’s perfect for both newbies and regular golfers alike, and its built-in analytics will help you boost your game.

The concept of virtual reality isn’t new, but it’s starting to find its way into our everyday lives more and more. In fact, virtual reality use for businesses is forecasted to grow from $829 million in 2018 to $4.26 billion in 2023.

But there’s no reason why VR should be used by businesses alone. It’s seeping into our everyday entertainment, with the rise of the metaverse and other virtual worlds for music, gaming, productivity and more. Apple even reportedly plans to release a VR headset as early as this year.

The TruGolf Mini Golf Simulator takes those same concepts and applies them to the game of golf. The system makes it possible to play an amazing round of golf — whether you have access to the range or not.

The package, which works with iPhones and iPads, comes with a weighted swing trainer that clicks for a more authentic impact sensation. It stands in for your normal golf clubs, capturing four critical swing characteristics: club face angle, swing tempo, angle of attack and club path.

The accompanying TruGolf Mini sensor, which is about the size of a golf ball, gathers your swing data in real-time. Paired with E6 Connect software, the TruGolf hardware will help you analyze and improve your swing just like your own personal golf trainer.

TruGolf Mini analyzes and displays your swing data after every shot you take, helping you gain a deeper understanding of the game and how to optimize your gameplay. Essentially, every shot you take is like getting your own personal coaching session to improve your game.

You get more than just access to analytics, though. You can also enjoy full course play, experience different practice ranges and more.
