1. Apparatus for simulating the playing of golf strokes comprising a first bank of differently directed directional devices sensitive to radiation reflected from a golf ball in flight, and first electrical connections from the first bank for giving a first electrical signal representing a first characteristic of the trajectory of the golf ball, a second bank of differently directed directional devices snesitive to radiation reflected from a golf ball in flight, and second electrical connection from the second bank for giving a second electrical signal representing a second characterisitc of the trajectory of the golf ball, directional devices sensitive to radiation reflected from a golf ball in flight spaced apart in the direction of flight, for deriving start and stop signals, and means for determining from the start and stop signals a range signal related to the velocity of the ball, and a computer responsive to the first and second electrical signals and the range signal for computing what would be the termination of the flight of the ball.
