Using a driving range can be hugely valuable for practicing shots and working on the consistency of your swing. But if you are looking to improve the mechanics of your shot, just driving isn’t going to provide you with a lot of help. When you use a golf simulator you are given instant feedback on your shot.

Products like the TrackMan 4 provide you with swing analysis and stats that can help guide you to real advances in your game. Rather than simply repeating the same mistakes, you can correct your form and develop as a golfer.
