Question: Is the SkyTrak+ discontinued?
Yes. The SkyTrak+ is officially discontinued. SkyTrak.com lists it as “no longer available” at a clearance price of $1,995 (down from $2,995). The ST MAX ($1,995) is the successor — a different device with dual Doppler radar and photometric cameras. Remaining SkyTrak+ inventory is available through third-party retailers like PlayBetter, which also offers Certified Pre-Owned units at $1,495. The original SkyTrak (OG) is still available at $695 as a budget option.
The Confirmation That’s Been Coming for Months
SkyTrak has finally made it official. The SkyTrak+ launch monitor page now reads “This launch monitor is no longer available.” The device that bridged the gap between the original SkyTrak and the pro-level market is done.
The writing was on the wall when the ST MAX launched earlier this year. SkyTrak quietly shifted all marketing and homepage real estate to the new device. The SkyTrak+ disappeared from the featured collection on skytrakgolf.com. The homepage now pushes the ST MAX, its studio packages, and the original SkyTrak at the clearance price of $695. The Plus sat in a weird middle zone that the ST MAX now occupies more cleanly.
If you’ve been shopping for a mid-range launch monitor and had the SkyTrak+ on your list, here’s the full picture.
What’s Actually Happening
Skytrak.com still lists the SkyTrak+ with an active product page, but the “Add to Cart” button is gone. The price shows $1,995 — down from the original $2,995 — which is a $1,000 discount. That’s the clearance price, but you can’t actually buy it from SkyTrak directly anymore.
Third-party retailers are where the remaining inventory lives. PlayBetter still has new SkyTrak+ units at $1,995 and Certified Pre-Owned units at $1,495. The CPO units come with a 6-month SkyTrak warranty and PlayBetter’s 60-day return policy. Those are the only ways to get a SkyTrak+ as of July 2026.
The ST MAX sold at $1,995 (also down from an original $2,995) is the official replacement. It’s a fundamentally different device. The SkyTrak+ used photometric cameras to capture ball flight data. The ST MAX uses dual Doppler radar alongside photometric cameras, adds GOLFTEC-powered Speed Training, and has a modular internal design. It measures club data in addition to ball data. It’s not an upgrade of the Plus. It’s a different product entirely.
The original SkyTrak (the one without the Plus branding) remains available at $695. That’s the entry-level option for people who want a camera-based unit that works with the SkyTrak ecosystem and doesn’t need club data.
Pricing Breakdown for Buyers
SkyTrak+ (discontinued): $1,995 clearance on skytrakgolf.com (sold out directly). $1,495 CPO at PlayBetter. $1,995 new at PlayBetter while stock lasts.
ST MAX (successor): $1,995 on skytrakgolf.com. CPO units at $1,595. The current device with the full feature set.
Original SkyTrak (budget option): $695 on skytrakgolf.com. Still actively sold. Camera-based. No club data.
The pricing is interesting. The ST MAX and the SkyTrak+ clearance both sit at $1,995. If you’re looking at new units, the ST MAX is the obvious choice at the same price with more features. The only case for the SkyTrak+ at this point is if you find a CPO unit at $1,495 and you specifically want a camera-based unit. But even then, the ST MAX at $1,995 gives you more data and newer hardware for $500 more.
What This Means for the Home Sim Market
SkyTrak has consolidated its lineup into two clear products: the $695 original SkyTrak for budget buyers and the $1,995 ST MAX for the mid-range. The Plus was a good device when it launched, but the technology moved past it. Dual Doppler radar is now the standard at this price point. The Bushnell Launch Pro starts at $2,499 and uses radar. The Rapsodo MLM2PRO uses radar and sits at $699 with a subscription. Camera-only units are becoming the exception at the sub-$2,000 price tier, not the rule.
The SkyTrak+ had a good run. It was the device that proved a $2,000 launch monitor could deliver accurate simulation. But the ST MAX does everything the Plus did, adds club data and speed training, and costs the same. The discontinuation was inevitable.
Should You Buy the SkyTrak+ Right Now?
If you find a CPO unit at $1,495 and you don’t need club data, it’s a decent deal. The SkyTrak+ is still an accurate launch monitor that works with GSPro, E6 Connect, and the SkyTrak app. But you’re buying end-of-life hardware. There won’t be firmware updates for new features. Support will eventual wind down. The ST MAX is the device SkyTrak is investing in.
For most buyers, the calculation is simple. Skip the clearance hunt. Buy the ST MAX. It’s the same price new, has more data, and will be supported longer.
