Two different launch monitors carry the name Foresight GC2. The one Foresight sells now is the 2026 GC2: a $1,699 portable unit that measures ball data with two high-speed cameras. The original GC2 was Foresight's first launch monitor and is discontinued. This page covers both: the price, specs and yearly software cost of the new one, and what owners of the original need to know.

Foresight GC2 price: what the first year costs
The unit is $1,699. The software is a yearly membership called Foresight+, and that is the number to work out before you buy. Every GC2 comes with a 30-day trial of Gold with Course Pass Pro. Foresight says a credit card is required to start the trial and no payment is taken during the 30 days.
| Foresight+ plan | Price per year | What Foresight says it includes |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | Bundled with every Foresight device. Core data views in the Foresight App and in Foresight Premier on a PC, MyBag and 10 sessions of shot history. Not eligible for a Course Pass. |
| Silver | $199 | Unlimited session history, all data views, practice drills and community challenges. Can add a Course Pass. |
| Gold | $599 | Everything in Silver, plus swing video capture and analysis, more drills and views, coach and student profiles, and third-party software access. |
| Course Pass (add-on) | $295 | 35 courses. Needs Silver or Gold. |
| Course Pass Pro (add-on) | $595 | The full library of 111 courses. Needs Silver or Gold. |
With no subscription the GC2 still works. The Free tier gives you the basic range features in the Foresight App and in Foresight Premier on a PC, with your ball data and your last 10 sessions. Courses, drills and third-party software are what the paid plans add.

What GSV found in the first test
We unboxed a GC2, measured the hitting zone and hit a 9-iron, chips and putts with it in Foresight's software.
- Ball data: fades, draws and pulls showed up on screen the way they were hit, and chips of about 10 ft went where we sent them.
- Speed: the unit locked on to the ball in about a second or less, and the shot took off on screen almost the instant it was struck.
- Hitting zone: the 123 sq in is shaped like a wedge, not a box. In our measurement it was about 4 in across at 17 in from the unit and about 14 to 14.5 in across at about 27.5 to 28 in.
- Not tested yet: driver, a full round, outdoor use and third-party software.
The full write-up, with the video, is in the Foresight GC2 review.
New Foresight GC2 vs the original GC2

Own an original GC2?
Foresight's support site lists the original GC2 as discontinued. The user manual, drivers and firmware are still there to download from the Foresight GC2 support page.
If you are deciding whether to keep it, the question is club data and software. An original GC2 with the HMT gives club data, which the new GC2 does not. The new GC2 gives you current software, a color display and a unit under warranty. If your Foresight account holds a perpetual license, Silver and Course Pass are now included at no cost, by Foresight: see Foresight+ Silver and Course Pass for license owners. For help choosing, email GSV.
Will a GC2 fit your room?
A camera launch monitor sits beside the ball, so it adds no depth to the room. The GSV Sim Builder has the GC2 in it: pick Foresight GC2 (2026) under "Beside the ball" and it lays out the screen, the tee and the unit in your room in 3D, draws the hitting zone on the mat and tells you what fits.

No. With no subscription the GC2 runs on the Free tier of Foresight+, which gives you the basic range features in the Foresight App and in Foresight Premier on a PC, plus MyBag and 10 sessions of shot history. Course play needs Silver at $199 a year plus a Course Pass: $295 a year for 35 courses or $595 a year for 111.

Does the new GC2 work with the HMT?
Foresight does not list the HMT or any club data option for the 2026 GC2. The HMT was an add-on for the original GC2.
