Simulator export guide

Turn a TrackMan session into one Divot Card.

Use a shot-level TrackMan export so DivotData can detect the pattern, show the evidence, assign one practice block, and tell you how to retest the same setup.

Confidence boost

Club, carry, offline, launch, spin

Mechanical proof

Needs impact data or coach review

DivotData reads shot rows, not summary screenshots. Missing optional metrics lower confidence instead of breaking the flow.

What to upload

Shot-level data works better than summary reports.

Use TrackMan Performance Studio's Shot History table export in Trackman CSV format.

Compatibility note: Face/path and launch direction improve confidence when present.

Who this is for

Home simulator golfers who want a practical answer to what changed today and what to practice next.

What improves confidence

Clear club labels, one row per shot, carry or total distance, offline/deviation, launch, spin, shot order, and a matched retest.

Export steps

Prepare the file before you upload.

Use the cleanest export path available. If the source only gives a table, copied rows can still be useful.

  1. 1Open TrackMan Performance Studio.
  2. 2On the home page, click All Activities, then click Shot History.
  3. 3Select the session and highlight the shots you want to export.
  4. 4Click the View Selector and choose Table View.
  5. 5Click the export icon in the top-left, open File Options, choose Trackman CSV, and click Export.
  6. 6Name the file, choose a folder on the PC, and confirm.
  7. 7Return to DivotData and use the upload box at the top of the page.
  8. 8Drop the exported file on the upload box or click Choose files. If your source only shows a table, paste the copied rows into Paste Table Text.

Click-by-click walkthrough

Export TrackMan TPS shot rows as TrackMan CSV.

TrackMan publishes an official TPS CSV export guide with screenshots for table view, the export icon, and the file-format picker. DivotData uses that path because it preserves shot-level evidence.

  1. 1Official step: Shot History

    Open Shot History

    Launch TrackMan Performance Studio, open All Activities, then select Shot History.

    Note: Pick the completed session you want to analyze before exporting. Live Shot Analysis can also export, but saved Shot History is easier to verify.

    No fixed screenshot

    This screen can vary by device, operating system, or account state. Follow the note and choose the option that produces a CSV or other shot-level table file.

  2. 2Highlighted: Table View

    Switch to Table View

    Use the View Selector and choose Table View so the shot rows are visible.

    Note: Table View is the safer DivotData path because it confirms you are exporting rows, not only a visual report.

  3. 3Highlighted: Export

    Click the export icon

    Click the export icon in the top-left corner of the TrackMan table view.

    Note: Select the shots you want first if you only need one club or one practice block.

  4. 4Highlighted: TrackMan CSV

    Choose TrackMan CSV

    Open File Options, choose TrackMan CSV File, then export the selected or full shot set.

    Note: Prefer TrackMan CSV for DivotData. PDF and visual reports are useful for review, but they are weaker for parser confidence.

  5. 5Next click: DivotData upload box

    Upload to DivotData

    Return to DivotData, keep the source set to TrackMan, then drop the CSV or click Choose files.

    Note: The strongest card usually keeps club, carry, offline, launch direction, spin, curve, face/path, and attack-angle columns.

Data quality tips

  • Export the full shot table, not only summary averages.
  • Keep face/path and launch direction columns when available.

What this cannot prove alone

  • Some account, coach, or facility setups restrict direct export from player-facing portal views.
  • Launch-monitor data can detect patterns, but exact swing mechanics still need richer context, strike data, or coach review.

Sample proof

The upload is only useful if it becomes a focused card.

A Divot Card should show pattern detected, evidence, confidence, likely focus, what not to chase, the practice block, and a matched retest protocol.

Coach-style note

The ball-flight pattern is clear enough to practice, but the exact mechanical cause should stay a hypothesis until a coach or impact evidence validates it.
