Question 1

How far back should you hit from the screen in a golf simulator enclosure?

Accepted Answer

About 9 to 11 feet back works well, roughly the length of a standard hitting strip. This gives plenty of clearance even when the impact screen frame or mounting supports sit a few feet in front of the hitting area, as with a Protee launch monitor mounted 3 feet ahead of the tee. Enclosure depth and hitting mat length are the main limiting factors.

Question 2

What core components do I need to build a golf simulator setup?

Accepted Answer

You need a screen, projector, frame, turf, hitting strip, and a PC to run the simulation software. You can start cheaper by skipping the screen and projector and hitting into a net while watching ball flight on a TV instead. A hitting strip is worth investing in since it takes the most wear. A SIGPRO Softy hitting strip paired with a SIGPRO 12 enclosure from Shop Indoor Golf has been reported as easy to set up and reliable, and Carl's Place is another option people have had good results with.

Question 3

How wide can a golf simulator screen wall practically go before it gets impractical?

Accepted Answer

Most golf simulator screens are built at 16x9 or 16x10, not full room width. Going wider than about 16 feet edge to edge requires a much brighter and pricier projector, more ceiling height for coverage, and stronger light control, while only a small fraction of that extra screen ever gets hit by shots. For a 22 foot wide room, the more practical route is a 16x10 screen with framed side walls a foot or more deep for ball containment, padding the remaining sides instead of covering the full width.
