Excerpt from Gungho Golf - Simulators

Yes, you can play a real round in your sim against a buddy in another state. GSPro's Online Match lets up to 8 players share one round, and it is built into the $250 a year subscription you already pay. Setup is simple once your sim is ready for it. Most guides stop at "click Online Match." This one covers what has to be right in your sim room first, because that is where most people get stuck.

What you need before you can play GSPro online

How do I set up an online match in GSPro?

Here is the flow from GSPro's own knowledge base. Menu names are in bold so you can find them on screen.

If you are hosting

From the main menu, pick Online Match. It is the option furthest to the right.

Click the Room Name box and type a name. Keep it simple, because you will text it to your group.

Leave Make Room Public off if you only want your friends in. Turn it on if you want strangers to find you in the Public Rooms list.

Pick the course. Nobody can join until a course is selected, so do this right away.

Open the Match Settings tab and set the game. More on that below.

Use the Holes tab if you only want to play 9.

Text the room name to your group. When everyone shows up under Players In Room, hit Play.

If you are joining

From the main menu, pick Online Match.

Go to the Join tab and type the room name exactly as the host sent it.

Set your tee box under your name and wait for the host to start.

You can also add a second person from your own sim to the same online room. Click the plus in an open slot under Local Player selection. That is how two buddies in your garage can play against two buddies in theirs.

Which settings should we agree on before we tee off?

This is where online…
