Bushnell Golf Launch Pro (Circle B Edition)
Space requirements
PlayBetter guidance: room at least 10 ft wide, 12-15 ft deep, 9 ft high for side placement, safe ball flight into screen and full swing; same requirements as Foresight GC3 since the units work identically.
- Width: 10 ft workable offset, 14 ft for a centered both-handed bay (industry guidance — see model).
What it measures
Ball data (6): ball speed, launch angle, side angle, total spin, side spin / spin axis, carry distance
Club data (4): club head speed, smash factor, club path, angle of attack (club data gated behind Silver or Gold subscription; single fiducial club marker sticker used, 1-dot mode)
Measured vs. calculated: Same triscopic camera platform as GC3: ball launch directly measured from images; carry modeled in FSX. Club data measured optically with a single clubface marker.
Accuracy: PlayBetter's 2026 Circle B review: 'pro-level accuracy' from the same Foresight three-camera photometric system; widely treated as GC3-equivalent accuracy.

Notes
Pricing: Circle B Edition $2,499.99 (ball + club capable hardware) at PlayBetter/Shop Indoor Golf, June 2026. Outgoing original ball-data-only Launch Pro still in limited stock at $1,999.99. Per PlayBetter, the 2026 Circle B refresh is identical hardware with new orange styling and a new pricing/subscription structure.
Left-handed players: Side-placed like the GC3; the unit must be moved to the opposite side of the ball for left-handed golfers.
Key ecosystem fact: Launch Pro = Foresight GC3 hardware sold cheaper up front with a subscription model (vs GC3's one-time fully-unlocked price). Circle B Edition (2026) discontinued the $1,999 ball-only SKU and introduced the $199/yr Silver plan. Historical one-time 'full unlock' club-data purchase options have been replaced by subscriptions. Built-in touchscreen and battery allow indoor/outdoor use.
Release year: 2022 · Connectivity: WiFi, USB, Ethernet · Indoor: yes · Outdoor: yes
