CAUTION: Always use a safety net and a hitting mat specifically designed
for golf if the hitting area or the ball flight area is restricted such as indoors or in
the back yard of a residence.
SETUP TIP: For optimum spin results, place the ball on the laser dot with some
kind of marking on the golf ball, such as its brand logo, facing toward SkyTrak’s
lens prior to hitting.
We recommend hitting off a mat designed specifically for golf. Place the ball or the base
of the tee on the red dot projected by the laser. If a mat is not available, we suggest
hitting off a tee from the grass. Irons and wedges hit directly off the grass create dirt and
grass particles from the divots that can make for inconsistent shot capture.
Avoid direct sunlight into the system during use. Direct sun into the optic lens of SkyTrak
can create problems for consistent shot capture. If available, please hit from a covered
area .
Use a clean, white ball with a logo or a marked line. Set the ball up with the logo or line
facing SkyTrak for better spin readings, whether indoors or outside.
Make sure SkyTrak is raised level with
the hitting surface. Being too far above
or below the hitting surface can affect
consistent shot capture and ball flight data.
Place SkyTrak parallel to your intended line
of play. Depending on your set up, this may
mean your target is not the center of the net.
Once SkyTrak is properly connected
to the app on your mobile device, it will
display a red laser dot on your hitting
surface. Place a clean, white golf ball on
the red dot.
The intended target line should be parallel
to the SkyTrak for accurate shot simulation.
Recommend using alignment mode to
check the target line. Either mark your line
of target on the ground or the net you are
hitting into.
Use of
alignment
sticks/golf
clubs increases
the accuracy of
intended line of
play.

• SkyTrak uses advanced optics that are located behind its lens. Scratches and dust or
other issues that impact the lens quality may interfere with SkyTrak’s operation.
Keeping the lens clean and scratch-free will ensure the measurement accuracy and
longevity of your SkyTrak system.
• Use a clean, damp cotton cloth to clean the lens in a single wipe. Do not use any
chemicals to clean the lens.
• Carrying cases to keep your SkyTrak protected and other accessories are available
for purchase at www.skytrakgolf.com
• Never disconnect or turn off your SkyTrak while it is syncing. Wait until it is finished
communicating before you disconnect it, power it off, or power off your mobile
device.
• Don’t expose your SkyTrak to extreme temperatures. Hot or cold conditions may
affect performance.
• Don’t allow your SkyTrak to get wet.
• Don’t drop your SkyTrak, or hit your SkyTrak with your golf club or golf ball.
• Not all mobile devices are compatible with your SkyTrak device. To view a list of currently
compatible devices, go to www.skytrakgolf.com
