How to export your Foresight Golf data
Your Foresight launch monitor captures absurdly accurate data. Here's how to get it out and make it useful beyond one session.
Foresight makes seriously good launch monitors. With a lineup consisting of the GCQuad, GC3, Falcon/Hawk and the Bushnell, you can capture the sort of detail that used to belong in a tour van.
So the quality of the data isn't the problem.The awkward part is what happens after the session ends. One session gives you useful feedback. Fifty sessions give you a proper picture of your game, but only if that data can be analysed over time, and not just in a vacuum.
SwingSync connects to your Foresight account, pulls in your practice sessions and lets you bulk export them as clean CSV files whenever you want. More importantly, it keeps working on the data after the export button has stopped being exciting.
Before you start: make sure the session reached FSX Live
Automatic sync works with sessions saved to your Foresight online account. Use your FSX Live profile when you practise in FSX Play, FSX 2020 or FSX Pro, and save the session when you're finished. If you can see it in the Stats area of Foresight Performance, you're ready to go.
Step 1: Download SwingSync
SwingSync is free and available for Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android. Install it and create a free account.
Step 2: Connect your Foresight account
From the SwingSync dashboard, find Pull in your golf data, stay on Account sync and choose Foresight.
Once the account is connected, SwingSync starts pulling in your historical practice sessions. If you've been busy with the launch monitor, give it a minute.
Step 3: Check and confirm the session
SwingSync will clean up the incoming data, map the clubs and flag anything that looks wrong. Confirm the session once the club names look right. This matters more than it sounds. One wedge accidentally labelled as a driver can make a mess of your averages for weeks.
Step 4: Export the Foresight session as CSV
Open the The Range page and hit Export to export all your shots. Otherwise, you can click on a single session, navigate to Shot Table and hit Export to get just that session. The CSV is then downloaded to your device.
The CSV opens in Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers, R, Python or point your favorite LLM at it. You get a shot-by-shot record with the Foresight measurements, standardised units and the extra fields SwingSync has calculated. It is your data. Take it wherever you want.
The CSV is useful. SwingSync is better.
Once your Foresight sessions are in SwingSync, you can:
- Clean up bad readings and fill in missing data.
- Classify and score every shot.
- Track progress, dispersion, miss patterns and streaks.
- Benchmark your numbers and compare clubs properly.
- Earn XP, level up and unlock badges as you practise.
- Take your shots on Treks and chase leaderboards and monthly medals.
It also keeps your Foresight sessions beside data from Trackman, Garmin, GSPro, Toptracer and other supported systems. That means changing sim bays, upgrading from a GC3 to a GCQuad, or practising somewhere else doesn't split your golf history into separate little islands.
The launch monitor did the hard bit. It measured the shot. SwingSync makes sure the data keeps earning its keep after you've packed the clubs away.
