Support level first, then the subscription stack
Every monitor here has recorded GSPro support — that’s the gate — so the ranking starts with the quality of that support, worth up to 25 of 100 points. Native integration beats official support, and both beat support that only works while you pay the device vendor’s own subscription: that arrangement means an annual fee just to reach software you’ve already licensed.
The stacking problem gets its own criterion too. The device’s subscription model earns up to 15 points, because GSPro already carries its own yearly license — a vendor plan on top roughly doubles the running cost, and monitors that avoid the stack deserve the credit. The license, PC requirements and vendor-plan math, added up over one, three and five years for each device, are in our GSPro cost guide.
GSPro is one platform among several — how every unit we track connects across GSPro, E6 Connect, and the rest is recorded in the golf simulator software guide. Looking for courses to play once it’s set up? The GSPro courses list guide covers where the full list lives, how to download courses, and the best-rated ones.
The rest scores the golf. Accuracy class (up to 20) is weighted for a crowd that self-selects for precision. The spin mechanism (up to 15) matters because GSPro’s flight model renders whatever spin it is fed — measured spin in, honest golf out. Measured club data (up to 10) turns GSPro from a game into practice, a smaller recorded-footprint bonus (up to 5) widens who can build a rig, and price (up to 10) keeps the field honest. Any spec the record doesn’t carry scores zero.
