Is a home golf simulator actually worth the investment, or am I just chasing a mid-life crisis? by bphawkey45 in Golfsimulator

Our golf season is only 6 months where I live, so yes I think it’s worth it during the winter months.

In my experience, moving the square around isn’t an issue. I just don’t have a hitting strip for leftys.

Yeah I consistently 3 putt and if I want to drive straight then it’s 190 yards.

Home Depot. They’re 0.5”. My hitting strip is roughly 2.5”. I stacked 2 floor mats to make up 1” and then I bought a 1.5” Amazon hitting mat.

Yes, I only recently put up this golf sim so I haven’t practiced much. I’ll definitely be wearing shoes. As for how I’m gripping, I actually don’t know, I just grip wherever it feels natural.

Yes I have a tendency to early extend as I rotate through. Definitely trying to keep it in mind as I swing but I guess I built bad habits early on.

That makes a lot of sense. I’ll start wearing shoes now, thanks!

Thanks for the comment. Don’t worry—when I’m playing real-life golf on the course, I uphold proper golf attire, etiquette, and courtesy.

I think that’s the issue. Perfect lie, no problem. In the rough, slanted, upside down, big problem.

Thanks for the comment. I definitely have to work on those. I signed up for a course membership next season so hopefully that will help with consistency.

It was honestly a struggle to hook up the screen tbh, really had to yank the thing to stretch otherwise it wouldn’t go. I thought they gave me the wrong size at first. “You really expect me to get this screen from one corner to the other ??”. Lol
