Here is my plan...
As I said in my introduction thread, I took up golf (on a more serious level than playing once every couple of years) so I could play with my daughter (1 of 3...and the only one who decided she loves golf!) and I am looking for a some hints, tips, and suggestions.
I want to more or less transform my garage into a golf studio. It is your typical attached two car garage with 11 foot ceiling. As of right now, it is stuffed with tools/motorcycles/junk etc
I ordered a storage system called "Saferacks" which will hang from the ceiling over my garage door so I can clear the floor of the junk. I will be installing that today and tomorrow. My goal is to create a hitting cage (for the simulator) and a putting area, which could also be inside the cage if I design it right I guess. My daughter got into golf and started playing competitively (her decision...not dad pushing her into it). The real goal is for to have a place to really be able to work on her game right here at home while having FUN! I have no doubt that playing all these courses is an absolute blast and is better than beating balls any day.
Now I know the Optishot is not going to be the long term option to get this done, but it is the right place to start for us.
So again, I am really starting from scratch. I need the PC, projector, cage, net, screen, putting green, etc. I do already have a realfeel mat (the two part version: stance mat/hitting mat combo) and a Rukket net. I love the idea of the Net Return simulator series, but ugh, $2500 is a lot of scratch without the projector, and I feel like after I week I would feel like the screen was too small.
Would you gentlemen mind offering some tips based on your experience? Also, would you mind posting some pics of your golf studios?
I sincerely appreciate any and all advice.
