I thought I would post a pic of my Simulator. It's a little different that others, but works in the space I had.

First of, this forum is awsome! All you guys building your own sims are amazing. My journey started with a cheap net and hitting mat and has evolved to a garage sim with r-motion TGC simulator. I'm a medium to high handicapper (HCP 23) and just became a father in may so I dont have the time to golf as much, I wanted to hit some golfballs in my backyard. After I found this forum just browsing the internet for home-golf setups i took the plunge to try building my own sim. My setup is a really low-budget golf sim thats in the making. I'll post some more high res pictures when I'm up and running. I haven't really got the chance to try out my sim yet.Last edited by G4zzel; 08-29-2017, 07:25 AM.Comment

Made some improvements to the above system, I added a receiver and a surround sound system to hookup to the laptop. I run the Xfinity app and we now can watch movies in HD surround sound. I can now switch between the upper TV and the big screen, this past weekend we hit into the football game and played the sim on the TV, was fun.

Quick pic of mine in my garage. Cannot wait to build out a better system in a different house at some point. But I am actually very happy with this setup. I need to figure out a solution for putting as it is not great dropping off the CCE mat onto the cement. Takes all of 2-3 minutes to put everything away so I can park my cars in the garage.
5X5 CCE Mat
Net Return Pro
55 inch Amazon TV
Tripod stand

Newest install from Protee UKComment

V2.0 of my sim room: new screen (raw mill), new projector GT1080darbee, new side panels (cut carpet runner).
I still want to add ceiling baffles and cut the carpet out for a dedicated golf turf setup from hitting position to the screen, but I’m hesitant until I find the perfect solution.

We used a large role of cheap but strong Matt black suit fabric and stapled ( industrial staples) it in U shapes to roofing batons UUUU
it looks awesome and stops flop shots dead.
Will post a pic when back.Last edited by vrpunk; 12-31-2018, 07:20 PM.Comment
