Foresight Sports GC3 Launch Monitor
The Foresight Sports GC3 is a portable three-camera golf launch monitor that delivers full ball and club data for indoor simulation, outdoor range practice, and on-course play support.

After the trial, simulation and course play in Foresight Premier run on a Foresight+ membership; ball and club data on the unit stay available on the free tier.

Why Golfers Choose It
Foresight GC3 Features and Benefits
Triscopic Camera Accuracy
Three high-speed cameras photograph the ball and club through impact, so your numbers come from direct photometric measurement, indoors or out.
Full Ball and Club Data
Ball speed, launch angles, spin, carry, plus club head speed, smash factor, angle of attack, and club path. All of it is included from day one.
Foresight+ Membership
Every new GC3 includes 30 days of Foresight+ Gold with Course Pass Pro. After that, choose Silver ($199/yr) or Gold ($599/yr) and add a Course Pass for course play in Foresight Premier.
Built-In Touchscreen
The integrated LCD touchscreen shows your numbers right on the unit, so you can practice standalone with no phone or laptop required.
Foresight Premier and App
One Foresight+ membership runs Foresight Premier in the sim and the Foresight app on the range: course play in 4K, shot and club analysis, drills, and scorecards.
LINK Rangefinder Pairing
LINK-enabled technology pairs GC3 data with the Bushnell Pro X3 LINK rangefinder for club recommendations built on your real tendencies.
Ball Data
What the GC3 Measures on Every Shot
Standard on every GC3: any standard golf ball, indoors and out.
Ball Speed
Velocity off the clubface and the primary driver of distance
Launch Angles
Horizontal and vertical launch, the start line and height of every shot
Total Spin
RPM of the ball that shapes trajectory, carry, and stopping power
Spin Axis / Side Spin
The tilt that produces a draw or fade, shown in numbers
Carry Distance
How far the ball flies to first landing, the number that builds your yardage book
Club Data
Club Metrics Included Out of the Box
The GC3 ships with club data unlocked. Place a marker dot from the included supply on the clubface and the cameras handle the rest.
Club Head Speed
Speed of the clubhead through impact, your distance potential
Smash Factor
Energy transfer efficiency (ball speed ÷ club speed) showing how clean the strike was
Angle of Attack
Up or down angle of the club at impact, key to launch and spin, especially with driver
Club Path
In-to-out or out-to-in direction through impact, which shapes your shot pattern
Simulation & Practice Software
Foresight+ Software for the GC3
Every new GC3 ships with 30 days of Foresight+ Gold with Course Pass Pro. After the trial, one annual membership runs Foresight Premier in the sim and the Foresight app on the range.
Foresight Premier
Foresight's simulation software for PC: course play in 4K, shot and club analysis, a drill library, and round setup with scorecards on the big screen.
Foresight App
The same account on your phone or tablet at the range: shot analysis, putt analysis, drills, and dispersion, tags, and zones views.
Foresight+ Silver and Gold
Silver ($199/yr) adds unlimited session history, dispersion views, drills, and Course Pass eligibility. Gold ($599/yr) adds swing video capture, multiple profiles, club comparison, and third-party integrations such as GSPro. Memberships are billed annually and membership sales are final.
Course Pass
Course Pass ($295/yr) covers 35 Premier courses; Course Pass Pro ($595/yr) unlocks the full library of 111. Either one needs a Silver or Gold membership.
Already own FSX Play, FSX Pro, or FSX 2020? That license keeps working. Prefer GSPro? The GC3 integrates with GSPro via a paid subscription (sold separately): if you already own FSX Play or FSX 2020, that license keeps working with GSPro, and new owners without an FSX license need an active Foresight+ Gold membership (trial memberships do not qualify).
On-Course Play
Course Play in Foresight Premier
The Foresight Premier library holds 111 courses, including top real-world courses rendered in 4K. Course Pass ($295/yr) includes 35 of them and Course Pass Pro ($595/yr) unlocks all 111; both need a Foresight+ Silver or Gold membership. Your 30-day trial includes Course Pass Pro, so you can play the full library before you choose.
LINK Technology
Your Data Follows You onto the Course
With the MyBag feature, you test and characterize up to 13 clubs: real carry distances, yardage gaps, and dispersion patterns for every club in the bag.
Pair the GC3 with the Bushnell Pro X3 LINK laser rangefinder and that profile travels with you. The rangefinder uses your real GC3 data to recommend clubs on the course, so your practice numbers follow you from the sim room to the fairway.
Find Your Fit
Who Should Buy the Foresight GC3?
Home Simulator Builder
You are building a sim room and want measured ball data, not estimates, driving the screen. The GC3 with Foresight Premier and a Course Pass is a complete simulation engine for the room you have been planning.
Serious Game Improver
You practice with intent and want club data in every session. Angle of attack, club path, and smash factor are included out of the box.
Range and On-Course Player
You want the same measured numbers at the range as in the sim room. The touchscreen shows every shot at the tee, and MyBag data pairs with the Bushnell Pro X3 LINK rangefinder for club recommendations on the course.
Club Fitter or Coach
You need consistent ball and club numbers, fast setup, and a touchscreen workflow that works at the range or in the studio. MyBag profiling across 13 clubs makes gapping sessions routine.

Common Questions
Foresight Sports GC3 Questions, Answered
Does the GC3 require a subscription?
Every new GC3 includes 30 days of Foresight+ Gold with Course Pass Pro. After the trial, simulation and course play in Foresight Premier need a Foresight+ membership (Silver $199/yr or Gold $599/yr) plus a Course Pass ($295/yr) or Course Pass Pro ($595/yr). Ball and club data on the unit stay available on the free tier. Memberships are billed annually and membership sales are final.
What is included with the Foresight GC3?
The GC3 package includes the GC3 launch monitor, 30 days of Foresight+ Gold with Course Pass Pro, a power adapter and cable, GC3 sling bag, USB-C cable, alignment stick, club markers, and a 2-year warranty.
What data does the GC3 measure?
Ball data: ball speed, horizontal and vertical launch angles, total spin, side spin and spin axis, and carry distance. Club data: club head speed, smash factor, angle of attack, and club path. All of it is included with the unit.
Can I use the GC3 without a PC?
Yes. The built-in touchscreen displays ball and club data for standalone practice with no PC, phone, TV, or projector needed. A compatible Windows PC is required only for simulation in Foresight Premier or GSPro.
Do I need club or ball stickers?
Ball data works with standard golf balls. For club data, place a marker dot from the included supply on the clubface and the cameras handle the rest.
Can I use the GC3 outdoors?
Yes. The GC3 works indoors and outdoors, including at the driving range. The built-in touchscreen shows your numbers at the tee with no PC required, and MyBag data supports club recommendations through the Pro X3 LINK rangefinder.
How much space do I need for a simulator setup?
The GC3 itself needs limited floor space beside the ball; for a complete indoor simulator setup we recommend a minimum of 12'W x 9'H x 12'D with room to swing. The exact requirements vary with the enclosure and mat you choose. Browse our golf simulator enclosures and golf simulator projectors, and our team can help you plan the room before you buy.
What are the GC3 PC requirements for Foresight Premier?
Foresight lists a minimum of Windows 10 or 11 64-bit, a Core i5-12500 or Ryzen 5 5600, 16GB of RAM, 20GB of disk, and an RTX 3060 Ti, RTX 4060 Ti, or RX 6600 XT with 8GB of VRAM for 1080p at low settings. For 1080p maxed or 4K at medium, Foresight recommends an RTX 4070, RTX 3080 12GB, or RX 7800 XT with 32GB of RAM. Standalone touchscreen practice requires no PC.
How do I connect the GC3 to a TV or projector?
Connect the GC3 to your PC via USB-C, Wi-Fi, or Ethernet, then link the PC to your projector or TV with an HDMI cable. The built-in touchscreen also works standalone for practice without any external display.
How does the GC3 compare to the GC3S?
Both use the same triscopic three-camera tracking system. New GC3 units ship with ball and club data out of the box and a 30-day Foresight+ Gold trial with Course Pass Pro; the Foresight GC3S is the lower entry price into Foresight camera technology, and its product page lists what its box includes.
How does the GC3 compare to the Bushnell Launch Pro?
The Launch Pro also uses triscopic three-camera tracking and sells for less, and both units run on the same Foresight+ memberships. The GC3 is the Foresight-branded unit with a 2-year warranty and a sling bag, and its club data is on the free Foresight+ tier; on the Launch Pro, club data needs Silver or Gold. See our full Launch Pro vs GC3 comparison for the detailed breakdown.
Can the GC3 be purchased outside the United States?
No. The GC3 is available to U.S. customers only. All products are shipped and sold only to U.S. credit card bearers and U.S. addresses, and the device will not work outside the U.S.
Does Top Shelf Golf offer financing for the GC3?
Yes. Top Shelf Golf offers financing through Affirm with flexible monthly payment options. Select Affirm at checkout to check your rate; it takes seconds and won't affect your credit score.
What is the warranty and return policy for the GC3?
The GC3 carries a 2-year manufacturer warranty from Foresight Sports. Please note that all Foresight Sports sales are final: the GC3 is not eligible for return, so we encourage you to call us at 1-888-871-6110 before ordering if you have any questions about fit for your space.

Very quick shipping and great after service. Also great price..
Foresight Sports GC3 Sim-In-A-Box Birdie PLUS Golf Simulator Package
I purchased the GC3 Foresight through Top Shelf. The bay I purchased directly from Net Return and the Epson 2250 projector came from Best Buy. I already owned the mat as I was hitting into a GoSports net. After reviewing the total package price from Top Shelf I determined I was able to save money by purchasing each item separately instead of getting the complete package offered on their website. I spoke with Top Shelf about the cost difference (particularly the net) and their response was quick and polite. Essentially they informed me that the manufacturer forced them to not provide discounts. Personally that harms Top Shelf's business because the manufacturer did provide a discount to me directly but they apparently don't pass on the discount through a 3rd party seller. It isn't fair to Top Shelf honestly. As for the GC3 monitor it was bought from Top Shelf. It lasted only 3 days before needing repair. It stopped turning on, and I was required to send it to Foresight as Top Shelf would not exchange the unit. That resulted in a 3 week hiatus which was a bit frustrating after spending a great deal of money. Top Shelf did provide me with Foresights directly line for technical support as I was unable to locate one on Foresight's website. That turned out to speed up the repair process immensely. Foresight determined that the I/O board was bad, and that seems to be a known issue after discussions with Foresight. They replaced the board with something newer and then returned it with overnighted shipping. Foresight did try their best to speed up the process considering the unit was brand new with hardly any use, including the speedy return shipping. As the video shows I have a size issue with our room. I needed a Bay to fit inside the house on our second floor in a fairly small space. Fortunately Net Return made a bay that would fit that space. They were the only manufacturer I could find that produced a bay that was only 8 feet wide and under 9 feet high. The one downside to the design however is the white curtain. The top has a Velcro strip sown all the way across that is utilized to attach the top portion of the net. The end result is a curtain that will not hang flat, but more like a draped curtain with minor folds. You can see them in the video. No amount of ironing, etc. will get them removed as it's a problem when you sow two different materials together. I was however able to attached some extra Velcro strips between the upper side polls and the curtain that provides extra tension. This helped reduce the size and number of the folds, but did not remove them entirely. The Epson projector is located on the right side wall and to the rear. I didn't require a short throw, so that saved me some $$. It is also plenty bright, plus has very good clarity and contrast. The full setup did take some extensive time to finalize as I need a specific throw ratio, keystone, brightness, and zoom capability to have the screen size work correctly for the space. I went through 2 additional projectors trying to find something that would work. Ultimately the Epson fit the bill perfectly and is below $1000. The PC setup is a Dell Precision Workstation with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 12GB video card I also bought off Amazon. It runs incredibly fast as you can tell in the video and for the price it can't be beat. Like the other items above I researched this heavily. I wanted the simulator to respond quickly with no delay. So far I have been testing different balls spin rates and compressions to find the perfect ball for me. My Driver swing speed is around the 107 mph mark. I have since adjusted my driver, 3 wood, and 3 hybrid settings to get more distance and less spin. I have about 10-12 yards more on my driver, 5+ yards on both my 3 wood and 3 hybrid. I would buy everything above again using the exact same companies. Getting the entire setup perfect took me about 2 weeks total, and that obviously doesn't include the three weeks down time without the simulator. If you have a small space then this setup would be perfect. You will need about 11 feet of depth for this projector and the bay, which includes enough space for a full swing of the driver. If you use a short throw you could probably get everything to work within 10ft. Hopefully this review helps someone with the same challenges as I had. I was unable to find any real help online. The products are solid, work well, and the companies all responded to inquires fairly quickly. No one acted as if they would rather be doing something else each time we spoke. Everyone was very professional. The only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is 1) the price issue, 2) the GC3 needing warranty work, 3) the net design could be altered slightly to allow the curtain to hang flat.

The great benefit of GC Quad compared to other high quality equipment is how easy you can set up the GC Quad. You simply turn it on, align it to your target with the furnished alignment stick and boom, read to use it. Despite how easy to set it up, it is super accurate for swing speeds from 60 to 120 mph.

Top Shelf Golf has excellent customer service. The lead time for the GCQuad was significantly shorter at Top Shelf Golf than the 3 competitors that I called. Top Shelf Golf is going to get my future business and I highly recommend them to others.
