There’s something new in town. Golf simulators allow one to practice on a driving range or to play one of over 2,800 digital replicas of real golf courses. Weather is no longer a problem. One team can play against another in-house or even internationally online. A player can see the analytics of ball trajectory, speed, and distance, the swing speed and more.
Since it’s been decades, I was primarily interested in the practice tees. I was nervous. There was a good chance that this once-upon-a-time low handicap golfer would spend some time whiffing the ball. There was little chance that anything resembling earlier abilities would be revealed.
