Why a tethered ball?
Golf Launchpad Tour’s tethered ball is removable and can be substituted with a regular free ball. But a tethered ball is more practical for indoor play, and since playing isn’t the same unless the feel and sound are true, our advanced tethering system is so accurate you won’t believe you’re hitting a tethered ball. That’s because we have designed the tethering system so that the dynamic mass of the tethered ball (think of dynamic mass like the swing weight of a club, which is different from the static weight of the club) matches the mass of a free ball. Combined with a strong, light-weight, and flexible tether that allows for a spin, a lay-flat design that does not interfere with your sight-line, and real Surlyn construction – the sound and feel of the ball are indistinguishable from your experience on the course. And, should you want to practice at the range or hit into a net with Launchpad, simply remove the tethered ball (no tools required) and tee up a regular ball.
