When measuring for a golf simulator, make sure you take into account:
- Recommended minimum buffer space: We recommend placing your golf simulator enclosure a minimum of 12-16 inches away from the wall. This is the buffer space behind the impact screen itself. You’ll also want approximately 2-4 inches of buffer space away from side walls and ceilings.Â
- Safe golfing distance away from the screen: For the safety of both the golfer and the screen, we recommend standing a minimum distance of 10 to 12 feet away from the screen.
- Height of the golfer(s)
- Length of the golf club(s)
- Turf thickness, heating ducts, and soffits
- Furniture and access to doorways
