Carpet with padding vs mat

[joeycalda]

Hi,
I am currently going to add a golf simulator GC2-T to my home theatre room. I currently have thick carpet over thick pad ( in heated/converted garage). I would rather not take out part of the carpet and install hitting mat. I believe the hitting mat may be slightly higher and I don't want to put hitting mat on top of carpet. I have hit balls off the carpet into a net and it seems okay. Anyone do it this way?


Thanks Joey

You will wear through the carpet pretty fast, get a big mat that you stand on and you can move when not in use.
