Finally got my build finished and up and running. Started work in December on the garden and construction of the studio and took a while due to weather and planning issues.
Studio doubles as a gym and home cinema, golf sim is Skytrak based but am looking for GC2 upgrade along the way some time. Tubular steel enclosure fabricated from 33 mm tubing , backing net and side nets with an archery screen at the moment . Very happy to get in on the Direct from Mill thread so will overlay that screen when it comes. Side panels are right next to walls so net wouldn't be enough to prevent damage so had some foam panels made up for the sides and roof of the enclosure which the net captures in place between the tubulars of the frame. I glued 50 mm velcro to the foam and covered everything in black auto carpet. Projector is Benq MW826 ST and fills the screen pretty well at 4.5 mts x 2.9 mts approx. Mat is foam backed tee turf at 3.5 meters long by 1.5 meter, I went with that just for the visual aspect of having an unbroken surface to practice putt on . Side turf is section of 40mm artificial turf bought online. Using The Golf Club Game and R-motion plus Fitness golf. There is a 5.1 sound system powered by Yamaha Home Cinema Amp, front and centre speakers are wall mounted behind the screen and sound good.
A big thanks to all the contributors on this forum, I lurked here for a while and gained so much info and knowledge from all the posters that really helped me with my build and helped me avoid potentially costly mistakes. Looking forward to joining the tour shortly.
