TRUEGOLF - VIRTUAL GOLF SYSTEMS
vg caddy hud add on
TAKE YOUR GAME TO A NEW LEVEL
The all new Truegolf Caddy HUD works with your core Truegolf VGS system to provide more visibility into your game.
Think of the Virtual Golf Caddy HUD as your hole-by-hole guide offering you detailed information on each hole such as the distance to the tee, your wind information, distance to your ball and a quick way to get to your favorite courses.
It also provides an alignment tool to accurately set up your shots even when the hole is not visible while you aim.
HOW TO USE YOUR CADDY HUD
Our primary goal in making the VGS Caddy HUD was to make an easy to use, intuitive system to give you more information on your game.
Your VGS Caddy is automated and has each course mapped much like a GPS tracker. You need only select the course and which part of the course you plan to play. Each hole and each shot will be tracked with or without using a scorecard. It will tell you how far you are from your ball and how far you are from the hole. These are indicated automatically in the Text Window at the bottom of the HUD.
The action button is the core feature of your hud and will point you in the direction of the hole. Keep in mind, this does not point you to your ball or where you shoot next, that is up to you however, you will never guess where the hole is.
The Aiming Line creates a direct line from your ball to the hole. It does not aim your ball, that you must do on your own while also accounting for wind.
In the end, the Caddy HUD is a tool, not a solution. It will not lower your score or show you how to play each hole, that is entirely up to you. However, what it will do is give your direct feedback and provide real time analytics on your game that you can then use to improve. It will be up to you how you use this tool and will vary from player to player. We suggest you join the Truegolf Group in game to share information on how you use this tool while hearing how others have used it to improve their game.

Text codes - dH means the delta height or the relative height from the golfer to the hole. -3.0 would mean the hole is below you. +3.0 would mean the hole is above you. Adjust your club selection and power based on this differential.

Chelsea's Story
When Poppy first brought up her caddy hud and offered me one, I was a little reluctant at first. I loved the features and what it did but really didn't get how it would improve my game.
It took me a few rounds using it to see the value and it did help a lot with seeing where I was in relationship to the ball and to each hole. It did not take long before I noticed a fast improvement in my game. Even when not wearing the caddy, I had a better understanding of the clubs I needed to use and how to play each hole.
I rarely get eagles and almost never get hole in ones. But given the aim line and accurate distance, I started getting more and more.
We even use it for course design and mapping for hole signs as well as distance markers as well.
I was so impressed, I asked her to move it over to the Truegolf line and she agreed. I am very happy we have this now as a tool to improve the game and we will always strive to improve.
