Golfzon Wave Launch Monitor and Golf Simulator Review
There’s no doubt about it, the Golfzon Wave is the most complete launch monitor/simulator device on the market. For more than 20 years, Golfzon has been the industry leader in this regard and the all-new Wave only furthers that reputation. If you’re serious about the game of golf, want to improve quickly, and have as much as possible during the process, there’s no better option than the Golfzon Wave launch monitor and golf simulator.
Thanks to such rapid advancements in golf technology, you no longer have to be at the course to play or practice. In the last few years, launch monitors and simulators have made it possible for golfers to play and practice from the comfort of their home, or just about anywhere they have room to make a full swing.
While there are lots of launch monitors and simulators out there, there aren’t many singular units that function as both. The Golfzon Wave is one, and it’s arguably the best performing, most advanced on the market.
Let’s take a close look at how the Wave works and what makes it so revolutionary.
Key Features
- 34 data points and swing video replay give you all the information you need to get better.
- More than 140 courses allow you to keep your simulator experience fresh, no matter how much you play.
- All-new putting mat allows you to play and analyze every shot from tee to green.
Who Should Buy the Golfzon Wave Launch Monitor and Golf Simulator?
If you’re a casual golfer that plays every once in a while and just enjoys being out on the course with good company and hitting the occasional decent shot, more power to you! However, the Golfzon Wave might not be the most worthwhile investment for your game and overall golf experience.
But if you’re like me and a lot of our Golfer’s Authority family, chances are you take the game pretty seriously and want to get better. If you fall into this camp the Golfzon Wave is definitely something you want to look into. Not only does it give you the chance to play and practice away from the course, it gives you 34 club and shot data measurements in real-time. This information is invaluable in helping you improve as quickly as possible.
Design and Technology
Golfzon has been in the golf simulator game for more than 20 years. Every year, more than 87 million rounds are played on the companies’ simulators. In short, Golfzon is a name you can trust.
Maybe the most attractive feature of the Wave is the more than 140 world-famous courses you can choose from. They include everything from Pebble Beach to the oldest courses in the United Kingdom, golf’s cradle. No matter what you’re in the mood for, there’s a course to suit your needs.
While playing different courses is fun, the Wave is also a wonderful tool to help you better understand your game and improve. That’s because it tracks 34 different data points that paint a clear picture of every swing you make.
Even more, you can replay any swing you’ve made with the Wave.
Most launch monitors and simulators only track your full swings. They aren’t capable of tracking putts. But the Golfzon Wave is the first simulator that not only comes with a putting mat, but tracks critical putting stats as well.
Putting data points include the following:
- Putt distance
- Putter speed
- Putt impact ratio
- Putting tempo
- Putt direction
- Putt speed
- Putter backswing time
- Total putting time
While the launch monitors you’re probably used to only allow for a single player, the Wave lets you play with up to six players at a time. Not only that, you can even network with golfers on Wave simulators around the world to truly maximize your experience.
The Wave comes with a one-year warranty, free 30-day returns, flexible payment options, and free shipping.
Specs
It’s recommended that you have 6.5’ to 8.2’ of room behind the hitting area and an overall space of 20’ x 20’ to use the Wave.
The launch monitor itself measures 5.3” by 7.2”, by 2.3”. It weighs 24.9 ounces. The putting mat is 14” by 12.1” by 1.4” and weighs 37.2 ounces.
The Wave’s lithium-ion battery can run for up to four hours before it needs to be recharged.
Our Experience
I’ve been on my share of different simulators and launch monitors over the years, and on the surface a lot of them seem the same. But upon a closer look there are usually some notable differences between them. Some only measure a few parameters, and there can be quite a disparity in their accuracy.
You don’t have to worry about any of that with the Golfzon Wave. It’s deadly accurate and measures all the key data points you need to fully analyze every shot.
I really like that you can use it inside and outside, there are more than 140 courses to choose from, and you have the ability to hit real putts. All those attributes are characteristics that other launch monitors and simulators lack.
Conclusion
There’s no doubt about it, the Golfzon Wave is the most complete launch monitor/simulator device on the market. For more than 20 years, Golfzon has been the industry leader in this regard and the all-new Wave only furthers that reputation.
If you’re serious about the game of golf, want to improve quickly, and have as much as possible during the process, there’s no better option than the Golfzon Wave launch monitor and golf simulator.
