A buddy of mine told me I should put a deposit on a Square Launch Monitor about a month ago after we had been chatting on golf sims for a while. I took that challenge one step further and decided to build out a full golf sim in my garage.
I am a high handicap lefty golfer. I wanted a place to practice and enjoy some games with friends. The setup needed to work all the time for me with little setup, while adjusting righty golfers on occasion with a little bit more work. My wife also needs to park her SUV in the garage daily. I have a 2-bay garage with an extra 3-4 feet on right side and 11ft Ceilings. I also already had a wall-mounted garage door opener.
I have yet to install the extra impact screen as the current one is OK, but I may eventually upgrade. I also added some pipe insulation to the poles and some moving blankets behind and on top of the enclosure to help dampen the sound and recoil.
I had the TV and Windows PC that I never used. Specs of PC:
* Ryzen 5600x
* Nvidia 2060 Super
* 32 GB DDR4 memory
Runs 1080p ultra (scaled to 1080×920 to fit screen) with no issues. I also have an Apple TV connected so I can use my iPad + Square Golf App if I want (as well as watch Redzone while trying to improve my game)
I also 3D-printed some accessories to help level the launch monitor and setup on both sides.
