Foresight launches Link-Enabled Technology to help course management

Foresight has been known as a leader in launch monitors for decades and you will see GC Quad units all over the driving ranges at tour events. Foresight launch monitors are also used by fitters for their accurate data and golfers to simulate accurate golf rounds indoors. But what do you do with all the data that these Foresight launch monitors collect and display? How can you get all of that to help you shoot better scores on the golf course? Well Foresight now has an amazing way to easily translate what you do on the launch monitor to help you hit better shots on the course.

With Link-Enabled technology, you are able to take your time and work on a Foresight launch monitor and use it on your Bushnell laser rangefinder or GPS app to help you manage your shots on the course. Foresight developed an easy-to-use MyBag assessment app that you run through and hit three shots with each one of the clubs in your bag. This assessment uploads to your Foresight account and links directly with your Bushnell account.

“This is an eye-opening technological advancement for amateur golfers who don’t have regular access to caddies that can deliver expert course management advice,” said Chris Watters, Head of Commercial, Foresight Sports and Bushnell Golf. “Everyone who’s used a laser rangefinder knows how to get a number, but they don’t always know how to use that information because that data has not been tailored to their actual performance, and knowing yardage to the pin is just one part of the club selection equation. LINK-Enabled technology takes guesswork and bravado out of choosing a club, building confidence by transforming a ranged distance into a club recommendation.”

The MyBag assessment looks at the shot data you produced to take into account your carry distance and shot shape for use on the course. When you start up your Bushnell Link-Enabled laser rangefinder or GPS app they will recommend the correct club for each shot. Now that sounds simple, and it isn’t, but both units take it a step further adding temperature, wind, altitude, slope, and shot shape patterns into the algorithm that recommends a club to you. The system is so detailed that it will also recommend clubs that will get you the front or back of the green in order to put you in the best position to score well.

I was able to go through the MyBag assessment and play a round with a Bushnell rangefinder, as well as the Bushnell app, and it was very impressive. The MyBag assessment was easy and thankfully allowed you to delete shots in order to get three that represented each club correctly. It was interesting to see that during a recent fitting, I found my 4 and 5-iron were only about 5 yards different and the MyBag assessment showed the exact same issue! Once that was done I went to the course, and it was very humbling to see the recommendations and that I might need to hit an extra club, or two, when going into some of the elevated greens. But after all of that the system works and is very accurate and easy to use. There were a few shots where the wind or some other condition would make you change to a different club than suggested, but overall, it was correct. The GPS app also gives golfers some great bird’s eye views of where you would likely hit your shot and lets you change clubs or aim at a better spot to get the best outcome.

The Foresight GC3S launch monitor bundle, including the Bushnell Golf Pro X3 Link laser rangefinder, is currently available for $3,799. The first year of the Foresight software subscription is included in the purchase price, as is one year of access to GSPro. The software gives you club and ball data from the GC3S launch monitor, FSXPro simulator, and the MyBag assessment program.

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.

In our forums, one user has offered up a prompt for the true sickos, inviting fellow forum members to share every set of irons they’ve ever owned. As to be expected, this is a lengthy forum topic.

@Lamosteve began:

Can you name every set of irons you’ve owned? Here’s mine

Spalding Dots
Spalding Eclipse
Ram Lazer FX
Lynx Parallax
Mizuno EZ Comp
Ben Hogans
Cleveland CG Red
Taylor Made R9s
PING i20
PING iE1
Taylor Made M6

Our members in the forum have been offering up their own collections. Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

macedan: “Started with a hand-me-down Golden Bear set from my brother when I was in high school, never really played more than once a year or got into the game until about summer of 2017. First purchased a set of Cleveland CG4’s (I actually really miss this set sometimes, soft & not terribly large for a GI iron), moved into Nike Vapor Fly’s by the end of the year. Those lasted until spring of 18 when I decided I wanted new, so I traded them in for TM Rbladez. Honestly, although I liked the Rbladez, poor decision on my part, I think this was really about the only time so far that after a week or two I was kicking myself for not staying with what I had. Rbladez stayed with me until late last summer when I switched to P790’s and (knock on wood) I am hoping this will be my longest lasting set.”
JimmyC59: “MacGregor Jack Nicklaus Triple Crown. Palmer The Standard. Still play these.”
