My potential sim room size concerns

[nicu2001]

I am thinking I will be about 8-9 feet away but could go closer as its a gc quad.

Circling back on this build. I think I am going to move forward with it despite the room being tight. I am getting quotes to raise the ceiling and the end room dimensions will be:

13’1” long
11’11” wide
9’11” tall

There is a regular doorway that I am going to widen by 4 feet and remove the door which will hopefully open up the room a bit. The impact screen will hang about 1 foot from the wall and so my true dimensions of the room will be 12'1" long by 11'11" wide. In determining placement of my hitting area (I am going with a custom fiberbuilt), where would you place the hitting part of the mat? I am thinking it should be offset a little. Maybe the best spot is 7 feet from the screen (leaving 5 feet behind) and offset around 3 feet towards the right wall (I am righty). Something like this (X for hitting strip):

1' from impact screen to wall ->	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10	11	12	1
													2
													3
													4
													5
													6
12'1" from wall to impact screen ->													7
									X				8
													9
													10
													11
													12
													13
					11'1" wide room ^

Any thoughts or other suggestions? Thanks!

I would suggest to mark 5' from the wall behind you and take some slow practice swings, this will show you what clubs you will be able to swing. I think you may be better served just to have the hitting spot centered from front to back. You will be offset so what are your plans for a projector? A floor mounted option might be better here.
