GOLF BALLS
First of all there is no substitute for real balls. Especially the ball you normally play with. If for some reason you don't want to hit real balls because of limited space, fear of damaging something or someone in the house, weaker impact screen etc. then there is an option to use limited flight golf balls. Some folks will use these indoors. The advantage is that it is safer and is less damaging to the impact screen. The disadvantage is the feel compared to a real ball. As well it really depends on the simulator as to how the practice balls will be simulated. In sims that don't measure the ball at all such as Optishot or P3pro then the simulation will appear as if you are hitting real balls. In sims that measure the ball then the simulation should show a shorter distance of carry for these balls. Some sims such as Protee will allow for distance "tweaking" to increase the carry to be similar to a real ball. This is very important for normal game play. There are many different types of balls but essentially they can be plastic (not recommended), high density foam or surilyn. Here are some popular options:
a. Almost Golf ball - www.almostgolf.com/
b. Callaway Practice Golf Ball www.golfsmith.com/product/30034069/callaway-hx-practice-balls and
c. Brush T ball - www.brusht.com/products/story_32.php
d. Jef World of Golf Ball
e. Cayman Golf Ball - www.oobgolf.com/content/fore+play/1-3470...ayman_Golf_Ball.html and www.google.ca/search?q=Cayman+golf+ball&...alls.htm%3B550%3B550
f. Point 5 limited flight Balls - www.pointfivegolf.com/
I prefer the Almost but also will use real balls indoors.
PRACTIC TEES
First depending on the mat you may need a tee holder. Get some here www.par2pro.com/shop/index.php?cPath=24&...3629ac9c24526d17bcdb
Standard tees are fine but most will like the specialty tees such as 4 more yard 4yardsmore.us/ and Brush T www.brusht.com/
