SkyTrak+ and ST MAX Update Course Play Library with New Membership Tiers
It's an amazing time for golf simulator tech — when industry pioneer SkyTrak offers access to virtual courses from the two leaders in golf mapping! New packaging tiers now available.
***Updated in November 2025 to add new Trackman Core package***
SkyTrak+ and the new ST MAX just reshaped how golfers access virtual courses. With the launch of its new membership structure, the Course Play software is now built right into subscription tiers — making it easier to understand what you get and how much it costs.
Here’s the big change: Customers can now buy either a package of simulated courses created by Trackman ($349.99), or a package of courses created by Foresight Sports ($299). Or they can get both packages together for $599. That means that SkyTrak+ and ST MAX users now have a streamlined path to accessing some of the best simulation content in golf.
It also marks a first in the industry: A launch monitor offering simulation content from both Trackman and Foresight, two of the most respected names in golf simulation.
This is a significant update, not just because of the added content, but because of what it says about SkyTrak’s evolving identity in the market. The company isn’t just building a better budget-friendly launch monitor. It’s building a more open, more user-centric platform that’s signaling loud and clear that the SkyTrak+ and ST MAX are for everybody.
What Is SkyTrak Course Play?
For those who haven’t followed the evolution, Course Play is SkyTrak’s native simulator software. It’s a dedicated package of high-end virtual golf courses designed to work with the SkyTrak+ and ST MAX launch monitors.
When Course Play first launched, it raised eyebrows. The courses were stunningly detailed and lifelike. The visuals, keen eyes noticed, were right up there with Trackman’s. That’s because, well, they were Trackman courses all along.
Now the secret can be spoken, and SkyTrak+ can offer those sim courses under the Trackman i.d. On top of that, the Course Play software now includes an option for a package of simulated courses powered by Foresight Sports, another huge name in the simulation space.
Now, SkyTrak has reorganized Course Play under its new membership tiers:
- Core Foresight ($299/year): Includes the Foresight Course Pack (38-plus courses), Pebble Beach access, and one new course added monthly.
- Core Trackman ($349.99/year): Includes 39-plus Trackman courses, including biggies like Pebble Beach, Bethpage Black, and Royal Portrush, and one new course added monthly.
- Elite ($599/year): Includes the full Foresight and Trackman libraries (70-plus courses combined), Pebble Beach access, two new courses monthly, plus discounts on SkyTrak Shop and Golftec services.
Both plans require only the SkyTrak+ launch monitor plus a PC, Mac, iOS, or Android device.
Yes, That Trackman and Foresight
Let’s pause for a second. This is SkyTrak, a company known for a $2,995 flagship product, now offering official course packs from both Trackman and Foresight as part of its membership tiers.
That’s not nothing. These are companies usually locked inside their own ecosystems. But with SkyTrak+, golfers can now access Foresight or Trackman courses starting with either’s Core plan, or get everything with the Elite plan. It’s a level of flexibility that’s pretty unprecedented in sim golf.
Course Play is available on PC, Mac, iOS, and Android, meaning you can run this high-level software without needing a gaming PC. That flexibility alone is a huge selling point for many.

Yes, both libraries include Pebble Beach. So let the head-to-head course rendering shootouts and debates begin!
The exciting thing here is that in both of these course libraries, these are serious, licensed recreations, built for simulator play and rendered with a high level of polish.
Are There Downsides?
Of course, it’s not all upside.
Legacy customers who previously purchased Essential + Trackman can continue renewing that plan at $349 per year, but new users don’t have that option.
And while we know the visuals and layouts are strong, it’s not totally clear whether these experiences are on par with what you’d get using a Foresight launch monitor with the FSX software or a Trackman with its native software. The ball physics still come from SkyTrak’s engine. That’s an important distinction for serious players looking to recreate every bounce and roll.
Still, this is an undeniable win when it comes to overall access and options. And there might now be twice as many reasons to buy a SkyTrak+ or an ST MAX.
