Foresight Sports Relaunches GC2 Launch Monitor at $1,700

Foresight Sports has relaunched its GC2 launch monitor at a price just under $1,700, giving golfers a lower-cost entry point into a lineup that otherwise starts with the pricier GC3 and climbs to the GCQuad and GCQuad Max.

What does the new GC2 offer?

The GC2 uses a two-camera photometric system to measure ball and club data at impact, the same category of technology Foresight uses across its higher-end monitors. It weighs just over 2kg and includes a carry handle, and Foresight has updated its LCD display with color so on-screen data is easier to read indoors, though the screen can be harder to see in direct outdoor light.

How does the Foresight app factor in?

The GC2 pairs with Foresight's companion app, which the company has significantly revamped. Golfers can customize which data tiles appear on the device's display, run quick range sessions with on-screen ball flight tracking, view dispersion charts, compare clubs in table form, and sync a down-the-line or face-on swing video to the shot data it produces.

How has it been received?

Reviewers testing the GC2 have reported it tracking drivers, irons and wedges accurately within its hitting zone across multiple sessions, without missed reads.

A $1,700 price tag puts genuine Foresight-grade tracking within reach of golfers who were priced out of the GCQuad lineup.

That reliability, combined with the lower price, positions the GC2 as an entry point for golfers who want Foresight's data quality without paying GC3 or GCQuad money.

Who is the GC2 for?

The GC2 suits golfers who want simulator- or range-grade ball and club data — ball speed, launch angle, spin and more — without stepping up to Foresight's $19,999 GCQuad Max or the mid-tier GC3. It sits well above entry-level monitors like the $200 Shot Scope LM1 or GolfBuddy Shot Mate on price, but offers a camera-based tracking system those devices don't use.
