Well, I have been absent for about 3 weeks from the tournaments and online play, but I believe it has been worth it. My Sim Room 2.0 is pretty much complete and I am very happy with it.
Background - My first setup was a 10 ft. enclosure on one side of my garage.
Sim Room 2.0 is a major upgrade including the following:
1) New screen now 10 x 17 WIDE!!!!!!!!!
2) Took down old florescent lights and went with dimmable recessed lighting. (Room is doubling as home theater)
3) Built a sub-floor so that I could install a putting green and do away with the mat. My protee sensor is now embedded flush with new floor
4) Installed Visio 5.1 surround system to go with the Optima 1080
5) Installed SynLawn 15 x 22 green with 4 hole locations.
6) Installed new recessed lights for Protee. Much cleaner look, no wires,etc
7) Reinstalled vcam and hcam in permanent position with wires hidden, etc.
8)New paint, patch holes, etc.
Of course, I have a few more things to do and I am starting to decorate the room. I hope to have a couple theater style reclining chairs next week. I really am happy with the putting green and the wider screen. Not sure you can see in the photos, but I have about a 12 inch trough between the screen and the putting green and I tweaked my screen tension, etc. to where I now have all the shots hitting and dropping straight down into the trough for easy pick up, etc.
I have attached some photos and will try to do a video soon. My next phase is to permanently install a web cam for a behind the golfer view as well as a side view cam.
Now I need to get in there and get my swing back.....see you guys online.
