Which E6 Tier Should You Buy?
The $600/yr Expanded tier is the real product. It unlocks ~100 courses including the 10 above. The $300 Basic tier has a rotating library of ~20 courses but lacks the headliners. The Premium Content courses (Pebble Beach, St Andrews, Sawgrass, Pinehurst, Spanish Bay) cost $15-30 each on top of Expanded — but if those courses are why you bought a sim, the premium bundle is worth the extra $99.
Before subscribing, check your room will work: E6 needs specific launch monitor placement. See our golf simulator ceiling height guide and room depth compatibility matrix to confirm your space fits your chosen LM. For launch monitor compatibility with E6, see our best launch monitors for E6 Connect guide.
And if you’re not ready to pay $300-600/yr yet, E6’s free Pinehurst No. 2 demo is one of the free golf simulator software options worth trying first.
