Launch Pro

Accuracy-first buyers in a shallow room who want Foresight-grade ball data and accept the recurring subscription cost.

~$2,499 approx 2026 street price for the Circle B Edition base unit

Tour-grade ball data on the cheap: the Launch Pro runs the same triple-camera Foresight sensor as the GC3, capturing ball metrics out of the box within about 2% of the $14K+ GCQuad. The catch is the software model. Full simulation, club data, and course access live behind annual subscriptions (Silver around $199/yr, Gold around $499/yr to unlock GSPro and full sim). As a side-of-ball photometric unit it suits 12-15 ft deep rooms where rear radar won't fit. Run the total cost-of-ownership math before you fall in love with the sticker price.

Common questions

Is the Bushnell Launch Pro worth it once you add subscriptions?
The hardware gives you GC3-grade ball accuracy for well under $3,000, but full simulation and club data require Silver (~$199/yr) or Gold (~$499/yr) plus a GSPro fee to unlock everything. Factor those annual costs in before comparing it to no-subscription rivals like the SkyTrak+.
Does the Launch Pro work with GSPro and TGC 2019?
It works with GSPro once you have the Gold subscription, and it lives primarily in the Foresight FSX software family. It does not support TGC 2019.
