SHOOTING SIMULATOR

Puckmasters is very excited to add new technology to its training curriculum this spring. Right off the floor from the hockey hall of fame in Canada comes the most amazing technology to help improve each shooter gain the edge needed to score more goals. Players use real hockey pucks to test their skill against real-life goaltenders. The cool, lightning fast movements, combined with the extraordinary special effects make RealHockey™ a first class simulation.

TRUE SHOOTER VS. GOALTENDER SIMULATION:

The player/user is the shooter in a one-on-one scenario against the goaltender. The shooter shoots on a "live" goaltender. The object of this hockey simulation is to score as many goals on in the session as possible. The more accurate and higher the velocity of the shot, the more likely the player/user is to score.

REAL SIZE NET AND GOALTENDER:

The projected image size of both the hockey simulator goaltender and the goaltender's net are real size. That is, the hockey simulator net measures six feet long by four feet high. As well the hockey simulator goaltender is real size and appears just as he would if they were standing in front of you on a hockey rink. This sets the stage for real shooting practice.
