Hi Mitch, loving the content your putting out, it's great help for people just starting up.

[@hcpgolf]

Thank you very much! I’m glad it’s helping ⛳️

[@Ray_Par2Pro]

Great Video. All spot on!

[@hcpgolf]

Thanks mate 👍🏼⛳️

[@v8hybridme]

Really informative video there. Getting rid of that Man Utd football on left could free up some space in your setup

[@hcpgolf]

Had a decent start to the season have we? 👀 Enjoy your Thursday nights this season 😂😂

[@tjsgolf]

Hi Mitch been watching your channel from when you first made a hitting net outside and been wanting to do my own. Finally I have a garage but it’s around same as yours at 7ft 8” in height. I’m not tall so I can swing a 6 iron maybe a 5 iron but I need to move a support beam over. I’m hoping to put some videos on my channel and hope to use the garmin r10 as it’s such a good price for me. Keep up good work

[@hcpgolf]

Ah mate thanks for the support! Best of luck with your build pal, it sounds like it will be a good one! ⛳️

[@doseyb9619]

Great info and perfect timing. I'm doing a house renovation and trying to build a golf simulator within a home gym room. The room is about 6m by 4.5m but I will aim to have the golf simulator at one side so in a space of about 3.3m wide and 4.5m long. Only built for right handed players and there will be no wall behind the player to allow a free swing. Should this be ok? Also, on a separate note, have you come across any retractable impact screens that are worth considering?

[@hcpgolf]

Thanks mate. If you’re only using it for right handed players then you should have no problem with that size! I don’t know much about retractable screens I’m sorry, I’ve seen people use them and they work well for their individual setups. But I can’t really provide much info for you unfortunately. Good luck with the build 🙌🏼⛳️

[@kennyb8718]

Retractable impact screens look great but I think they're very pricey. I'm looking to build a horizontal retraction system i.e. a net/screen on a curtain rail! Something like this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYm1p3yioLaSo7s

[@Ryglado]

Good info here. Question - Is a 16:9 or 16:10 screen proportion the optimum?

[@hcpgolf]

It doesn’t particularly matter, just whatever fits your room size best. If I had the choice, I’d probably choose 16:10 👍🏼⛳️

[@scotthucks7966]

Actually, I would have love to have known what is the smallest size room you could use full clubs. I can accomodate a 8x8 ft impact screen in my garage, but i have plenty of ceiling space and side space. Is an 8x8 ft screen large enough for a simulator?

[@hcpgolf]

I have a video coming out hopefully next Sunday explaining about minimum room size mate! 8x8 screen is bigger than mine you'll be fine with that size - it just depends on how tall and wide your room is to determine if you can swing all your clubs or not

[@bklounge_golf]

Mitch. If those guys built Rick’s can you possibly find out where I can get those fake windows from his? I really want to have them for mine.

[@hcpgolf]

I’ll ask the question mate 👍🏼⛳️

[@bklounge_golf]

@@hcpgolf that would be awesome! 🙏🏻

[@allahalibaba9063]

So a room that is 12 ft high, by 18 ft width, and 36 ft deep would do very well??? Have room for a counter with stools and etc...Thanks..

[@hcpgolf]

That sounds like it would work well!

[@kingbeeforever]

What system should I buy for a 12 x 16 feet room with a 10 feet ceiling ?

[@hcpgolf]

You should have the pick of the bunch as you seem to have enough space for radar and camera based launch monitors 👍🏼⛳️

[@masondillard4327]

If I have 18 feet (5.5 meters), would I still be able to fit a sofa or chairs back there? Or should I make the room that full 6 meters? I can do it, but I'd have to lose space in the other room that it will be touching.

[@hcpgolf]

You can do it. I’d personally have the fill 6m because your swing may feel a little cramped. But you can do it 👍🏼⛳️

[@masondillard4327]

@@hcpgolf I appreciate your response! I'm going to expand it to somewhere between 20-22 feet (6-6.7m). I did some measuring yesterday after I commented and understood what you meant.

[@bighawk8081]

I have a 10 ft width room, is that wide enough to swing a driver

[@hcpgolf]

It depends how wide your golf swing is. I imagine you’d be ok but you wouldn’t be hitting from the centre of your room and into the centre of your screen 👍🏼⛳️

[@andycartergolf]

Hi guys, Can you go 3m width and swing comfortably?

[@hcpgolf]

You’d be hitting from an off-centre position into your screen but it can be done 👍🏼⛳️

[@chasebecker5559]

Is 9 feet in height by 14 feet in width good for a driver swing?

[@hcpgolf]

Everyone’s swing is different but that amount of space sounds like you’ll be ok. You might be a little offset to one side but it should work fine 👍🏼⛳️

[@harrybailey3591]

11ft wide by 12ft deep would that work ?

[@hcpgolf]

It’s pretty tight! As long as you can swing a club comfortably it will work if you get a camera based launch monitor 👍🏼⛳️

[@romankacin8365]

Unfortunately, there were 50 free golf simulator guide books but they've all been given away. You now need to pay 10 pounds. In case you are thinking about signing up.

[@candidaprout8441]

Move to Thailand and build one outside.

[@hcpgolf]

That’s more tempting than you know 🤣⛳️
