Plan a golf simulator that fits your room

Most simulator advice starts with the gear. Start with the room: its ceiling, width and depth decide which launch monitors work, where the tee goes and whether your driver clears the ceiling.

Every figure on HomeSimBay comes from a manufacturer, software maker or retailer, with a link and the date we checked it. How we research

Screen 10′ 10′ ball to screen 18′ deep Driver at the top
A 10′ by 18′ bay, the sizes most published guides call comfortable, drawn to scale with a 5′10″ golfer. The shaded band is where the driver head reaches at the top of the swing.

Check your room

Ceiling height
Width
Depth, screen wall to back wall

Launch monitors compared

23 models in one table, from $599.99 to $19,999: radar or camera, measured or calculated spin, subscriptions, and the space each one needs behind you.

Simulator software

14 programs with their real yearly cost, course counts and the gaming PC they ask for, so the subscription is not a surprise after you buy the hardware.
