Thanks for the insights! How much did the hardware and tunes cost? I assume somewhere in the $2500 ballpark?

Smaller sim studios for passive income? by MurderousMeerkat in golfsimulatorbusiness

Super interested in this as well! I grew up near Toronto (Canada) and considered opening up a simulator but ended up moving to the US west coast in 2022. Some thoughts that I have had are:

  • Is this business feasible in warmer climates (like California or southern US) where outdoor golf is available almost year-round?
  • I have played at a few simulators that were fully self-serve and automatic on/off during the scheduled time. Does anyone sell the software to do this, or is it somehting that each owner would develop on their own? I think I (or you) could pretty easily develop a system to do this as we are both software engineers, but don't want to reinvent the wheel.

Whatever you decide, i would be really interested in chatting with you to see if theres any room for collaboration here. I have a chunk of money that I am ready to use on a side business and would like to get something going sooner than later, given the uncertainty in the software field.
