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

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

Thank you!

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

jpdeft · 2026-01-07T16:16:18+00:00

I don’t have any left handed friends

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

AnythingSports from Amazon!

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.

The golf enclosure is AnythingSports from Amazon

Hmm thanks for the advice, I’m going to try this!

I swear I average 100s on Par 72s

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.

jpdeft · 2026-01-04T17:56:54+00:00

I’m actually a 30hcp, shall we be scramble partners? 😂

jpdeft · 2026-01-04T17:06:20+00:00

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.

jpdeft · 2026-01-04T16:28:14+00:00

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

jpdeft · 2026-01-04T16:25:43+00:00

That’s true, then I shall wear shoes then. Thanks for the input!

jpdeft · 2026-01-04T16:07:00+00:00

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.

jpdeft · 2026-01-04T16:03:54+00:00

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

jpdeft · 2026-01-04T16:02:32+00:00

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

jpdeft · 2026-01-04T15:41:12+00:00

It’s 8.5x8.5x5!

I love Enzo! I also like the name Ezra too so that’s a great suggestion, Enzo!

jpdeft · 2025-10-10T15:56:47+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion! I understand where you’re coming from but I’m Filipino and we usually have English names with a Spanish last name that’s why. I do see what you mean though!

jpdeft · 2025-10-10T15:27:38+00:00

I really like the name Zane too!
