I don't use my garage for my car but I made the same setup. Raised tracks for 350$ and bought wall mounted opener on special. Made a frame for my impact screen using electric tubing and it's hanging off the tracks (in front of the door) using heavy duty rubber bungees... this way I can lift it up when I need to work on car. rest is all DIY with old movie theaters... mevo is on back wall and it's perfect.. Cheap Epson business projector from costco, a couple of high speed USB cameras, a spare monitor and I got myself the perfect golf studio to practice and play.
You got a fantastic deal on the door conversion. That liftmaster jackshaft alone in texas is around 1200 installed. High lift track and springs is another 800 at least.
I literally got the exact same thing done to my garage door a few months ago. Lifted the tracks, added the side installed motor and it cost me $800 (CAD) cash 😅🤷♂️
If your looking to build a sim do what ever you can to get the aspect ratio correct so you can have the image projected all the way to the floor. The black blocking above and below the screen is bush league
Would recommend getting the hdmi to micro usb adapter that allows for power pass through via an additional usb c port for long sessions or when you forget to charge your iPad
I like the idea for optimising the garage door but I‘m sure you could have saved money here by extending the rails so you can get higher and then mount the motor closer to the roof. This would probably mean you would have to extend the chain too so that when closing the doors it still closes fully but I‘m sure it would have worked. Thanks anyway for this video I‘m happy to try some ideas for myself!
I mean if your clubs goes anywhere near the in the swing you need massive lessons. Think about it, the only time the clubs in the middle under the monitor is the lowest point of the swing
This was excellent, as soon as I get home I'm measuring my garage. It's a 3 car so the car issue isn't a factor. I can probably avoid any garage door issues by reversing the whole project and putting the impact screen against the garage door.
I'd be curious if there was a system that just uses a TV screen on the side instead of a projector - would that be a cheaper approach? (Assuming you have a TV already).
Man im currently building a 24x24 garage and going with a full sim. But ive used a mlm2pro and a net in the back yard the last few months and man its such a good little setup. Cant recommenced it enough. Im even keeping the mlm2pro for the sim atleast for afew years till I have a much bigger budget to upgrade. Also I would like to add that the mlm2pro can connect to windows PC's via Bluetooth using a free open sourced software connector and can be used to play GSPRO software.
Thanks for a great video. Does the hitting enclosure expose the frame work to ball ricochets? Some hitting bay makers line the frame with padding to prevent balls from impacting the frame work and bouncing around at high speed. Also, can you hit a lob wedge with the projector mounted so low? Thanks.
If space allows, I helped make a slanted ramp that the mat under the screen sat on and would slope into a channel leading to your hitting space and act as a ball return. Relatively inexpensive. Half inch sheet of plywood and a couple pieces of lumber.
I would make a system to fold up the carpet and hitting mat into screen. I plan to use third bay of my garage. Could use screw eyes into the wall to hold up screen
How far back are you positioned from the screen while hitting? I have a 10.5ft x 11.5ft space and trying to figure out where I would need to hit from. Thank you!
I just hung up a cloth and put pillows underneath it, I can practice chipping but since I don't wanna damage the door behind it I only practice chipping on it, I live in an apartment so works in small environments and is completely DIY just used some kite string or matter of fact you could use any string to do this. then just set up a swing analyzer or something of the sort and it works. Unfortunately no projector but you could probably add one if you get the placement correct and the backstopper is there to make it flat.
I wonder what other launch monitors can be paired with this setup. I like the hitting bay being all in one package. But would like to have the option to upgrade the launch monitor eventually but keep the same hitting station.
Also quick question about the mat - it doesn't look wide enough for hitting driver. Any chance you can do a driver video in a garage setup? I would imagine sound/etc would be tough but it does look like space is limited.
That super budget version.... does the data load up to a computer where you can see the shots like you were overlaying? Also does it have stuff like swing path, club face, etc?
Amazing job! Question for you: how far is the projector from the screen? I’m think about the hitting mat being 8 feet away and curious if you ever have to worry about a pop up making contact with the bottom of projector
I’m struggling to find some info on gameplay for the skytrak vs skytrak plus. Driving range and numbers they give is cool. But my main goal is to play rounds with friends. Trying to figure out if the plus is worth the extra money for playing rounds vs the regular skytrak
Can you hit a regular tee on that mat that comes with it or do you have to use those cone plastic things? Is the "putting mat" that it comes with have any padding or is it just indoor outdoor carpeting? Thanks, ordering today.
The hitting mat is fairly deep so I have been able to get a tee in it but you can’t push it in too far. The cones may work better overall. The other mat is essentially like outdoor carpet. You can roll putts on it but it’s not ideal for that. For anything more serious I’d advise getting a separate putting mat.
Dude, a few more bucks for a bucket of paint on the walls. Just saying... But great job and you know it is going to be a golf buddy center, especially in the winter. So, start working on the bar and stools and the big screen tv. lol Great job guy!
Hello I didn’t see the discount code at the end of the video, I’m looking for a simulator .I have a few questions,do you come close to hitting your projector that is mounted on the front of your simulator.and I noticed that your simulator is it back to the wall,do you have 6 inches away from wall or a foot or do you have some padding behind the wall .only reason I’m asking is that your simulator is exactly the way I need to set it up,I’m using the width of my garage and no t the length like you have your simulator.and I have to install a side mount garage opener
Love your videos! How would you compare the quality of this enclosure to the Carl's place DIY? Also, what are your thoughts on their Pro series as well? Thanks.
What I don’t like about the MLM 2 Pro is you can’t just use any ball you want to get your spin numbers. If I am doing a practice session on a simulator I would like to use the same ball I do while on the course.
does anyone make a 8ft enclosure with the projector mounted to the enclosure. i have a 10ft ceiling and 16ft in length space. We love to sim in my garage shown just not 10ft.
Awesome video and build! As someone who is seriously considering doing the same thing, I have a couple questions...1. Can you sync the Rhapsodo up with a TV monitor or something larger than an iPad or tablet? 2. Does the Rhapsodo app software allow you to play actual sim golf on different courses and if so, how many course options are available? Thanks!
Great questions...first you can sync the Rapsodo up with a TV (instead of a projector) The way I do it sometimes is to use airplay to mirror the image from my iPad to my smart TV. As for the sim golf, yes the Rapsodo comes with its own built-in simulation. Its pretty good but if you want something more robust you can pair the Rapsodo with a third party simulation software like E6 or Awesome Golf.
I just don’t understand videos like this. My golf simulator is - MLM2Pro $700 - Projector $200 - Impact screen $150 - Matt $200 That is it. That’s $1250 and 79% cheaper than this.
Videos like this have zero informational value, they just need to be entertaining enough to make money. Click his link in the description to PlayBetter for that setup, which features multiple pictures of him in his garage. He's just doing a promo and he may even have received it all for free... Typical of a sales video to only announce the price at the end. He didn't exactly "build" a home simulator either, he got one off the shelf, click bait. It ruins it for you when you start seeing through this and then wonder about the hole in one at the end, could well be some pre-recorded demo just to hype up some people who are easily persuaded and who needed that wee nudge to go and buy it. Not only but he doesn't add Amazon links in the description because he is a nice guy and wants to make it easy for anyone to find these exact products but because he'll earn a commission when people click and buy.
For the distance between ball to wall, is it 8 or 10 ft ? And how far exactly do I need behind the ball? I am having extremely difficult time to get it right lol
For the Rapsodo you need 8ft of travel from the ball to the net and the Rapsodo itself needs to sit about 6-8 feet behind the ball for it to work best.
Can you get a setup like this in the Philippines, without having to order it and pay a crazy amount of import taxes and fees? We're custom building a home in the next couple years, and I'll have one of these type of setups in our home.
@@Golficity you can put an electric heater in there for like $500 and it may cost you like $50 a month in electricity. well worth it imo. just need a 240 line.
The projector is well out of the way of my golf swing and I've taken lots of swings in the sim without ever getting close to it. The way its designed to fit with the enclosure is pretty smart in that way.
hey guys great video, love your content. I have bought the rapsodo mlm2 pro. The tablet from amazon that you shared info on, is this tablet proven to have worked with the rapsodo and the projector you got? Just want to make sure that exact samsung galaxy tablet works with the rapsodo. trying to piece my simulator project together little by little. Thanks guys have a great day. Keep up the great content. look forward to your response.
The Garmin r10 is like half the price and pretty much the same technology if were talkin budget. I'd trust Garmin over rapsodo. Garmin make 15 thousand dollar fish finders for deep sea fishing. They gots alot more skin in the game when it comes to radar based technology.
my first mat was a maxflight mat. lasted less than 30 days b4 totally fucked. the rubber was dry. i was learning, taking big divots. or would be big divots. but i could make a better mat and that thing wasnt cheap
I’ve gotta get your garage guy to do my garage. The quotes I got to do exactly what your guys did was over 2 grand🙄 I swear there just isn’t any honest workers/companies in my area anymore. Literally wanted the same design y’all did, genie side mount and all. I too have 9.5ft garage ceilings.
@@JustMeAP1 I completely agree. 10’ or higher would be ideal. Unfortunately the house I bought was already built and unless requested for higher ceilings, most homes garage ceilings standards are set at 9.5ft. My neighbor who got me into golf a couple houses down had a custom poured foundation so his basement is 12ft in depth. He did that specifically so he can put his golf sim in his basement. Brilliant idea, he just had to pay more(for this custom foundation) when building his home obviously lol. I’m fine with 9.5ft ceilings as I’m only 6ft tall. Definitely cutting it close though lol.
@Blackcloud319 6 feet tall is too tall for a project at under 8.5 ft (as in this video), even with an iron. Only useful for chipping. Even 9.5 would be a problem if a taller friend ever wanted to come over. Good news: your backyard has a taller ceiling. Moreover, my backyard setup was HALF the price. Just saying. Your choice if you want to replace a $1,000 projector every time you use it.
@@JustMeAP1 oh I don’t have a projector nor will ever get one. I just sync my iPad to a larger tv that sits to the side. I’m not very tech savvy so the projector and impact screen aren’t a very high priority for me lol. I concur that the backyard would be ideal, however, I’ve already hit balls through two hitting nets. Actually the last time I did that, the ball went into my wall in my garage lmao! I got a heavy duty hitting mat, it should last a bit longer than just a normal golf net. Also, in my garage I don’t have to worry about rain or any other weather like snow and such. My garage gets plenty warm with just a space heater during the colder months.
@@Blackcloud319 Before my cage, I also had a net that I hit into with no problems. But after the cage, I and others hit several shots that would've gone outside the net. A golf ball came AT my house this year. Cost my neighbor's insurance $6,000. I don't see how people hit through nets, but I hear of it happening all the time. Now, my cage has a double net AND the impact screen - which causes balls to fall straight down instead of often straight back past me (so it's huugely more than just for the projector). The other big advantage of the cage is allowing me to tee-up farther from the net (nearly ten feet instead of less than six). This gives the launch monitor much more time to read the ball's motion for more accurate readings. I live in Tucson. No colder months. Generally, I would not consider weather anyway. More to the outdoor point, IMHO, are Asian Tiger Misquitos that have invaded the South. lol "oh I don’t have a projector nor will ever get one. I’m not tech savvy so the projector and impact screen aren’t a very high priority." Trust me, the projector is VERY cool - but much better at night. It is still visible during the day. My huuge problem with this video is the lack of any discussion about how it's EASY it is to hit it installed over your head. THAT (again IMHO) is a bigger issue than not feeling "tech savy" about forgoing one. The biggest tech issues are keystoning - to get a sidewise light make a square image, and how you plan on casting your phone (not a simple issue with Android tablets). Both my S24U phone and MS tablet can use a USB-C to HDMI convertor (as done in this video) but no Android tablets would.
I would like everyone to know I purchased this unit for launch monitor is good. The project is OK, but I want everybody to know that the enclosure is junk. It does not go together like they say it. Does you basically have to put it together and then leave half of it hanging for the screen to fit properly it comes from sky track. It was my fault for not returning it within the 30 days, but there are much better units out there than this thing I’m very disappointed in the whole thing as far as I’m concerned it was a waste of money.
I love how you started by saying you are super limited on space while stood in a garage bigger than most modern houses here in the UK 😂
I don't use my garage for my car but I made the same setup. Raised tracks for 350$ and bought wall mounted opener on special.

Love when 5k is a budget sim these days!!
Yeah, might as well just go buy a "budget" Lamborghini to park in the garage when you're not using the simulator.
The golf sim setup video I’ve been waiting for! I have the exact same situation so this is perfect. Thank you so much man. God bless you.

This is exactly what I’m doing, really enjoyed the video. Thank you for this. 👍
These videos are super inspiring! I want exactly what you have done in my garage, just need to save. Hope for this one day, keep up the videos!
Golficity, Keep grinding!
This looks like a fantastic budget setup!
May have missed it in the video but what about air conditioning and heat? My garage is a sauna in the Midwest summers.
That will come I am sure. Mini split

Great choice with Rapsodo, I have 5000 shots in and it works like a charm. All you need is a gaming PC and GSPro and you’re in for a heck of a winter
What specs do you need on the PC if you don't mind me asking?
@@McBurdo8 For 1080P I’d say a laptop
with an RTX 4060 or better or a “real” computer with an RTX 3060 or better
So you can confirm that Rapsodo is compatible when running GSPRO
@@ryanayres1930 It sure is. It’s not officially supported but there is a little software you can download for free that allows the connection
Thanks for a great video. Does the hitting enclosure expose the frame work to ball ricochets? Some hitting bay makers line the frame with padding to prevent balls from impacting the frame work and bouncing around at high speed. Also, can you hit a lob wedge with the projector mounted so low? Thanks.
This is awesome. One question, did this build come with anything to prevent balls from hitting poles and bouncing back?
I also had the same question. Any padding supplied to cover the frame? Also, the screen appears loose. Any way to tighten this up?
If space allows, I helped make a slanted ramp that the mat under the screen sat on and would slope into a channel leading to your hitting space and act as a ball return. Relatively inexpensive. Half inch sheet of plywood and a couple pieces of lumber.
It could easily just be picked up and stand in front of the screen for space purposes.
I would make a system to fold up the carpet and hitting mat into screen. I plan to use third bay of my garage. Could use screw eyes into the wall to hold up screen

What type of golf simulation software would pair with this? E6, maybe?
Those side mounts are awesome. They use them on most commercial bay doors
I wonder what other launch monitors can be paired with this setup. I like the hitting bay being all in one package. But would like to have the option to upgrade the launch monitor eventually but keep the same hitting station.
Similar setup , very nice! I’m using a Garmin presently but getting Skytrak with a Benq projector but have yet to hole out on the Sim!
Awesome video, thank you! ✊🏽
It sounds like your screen may be too close to the wall? Check to see if its impacting your drywall as the screen does give in some.
Also quick question about the mat - it doesn't look wide enough for hitting driver. Any chance you can do a driver video in a garage setup? I would imagine sound/etc would be tough but it does look like space is limited.
Garage Golf! Amazing video!

Casual hole In One to end the video 🙌🏽 ⛳️ nice setup
Do you need any sort of shank protection
That super budget version.... does the data load up to a computer where you can see the shots like you were overlaying? Also does it have stuff like swing path, club face, etc?
Amazing job! Question for you: how far is the projector from the screen? I’m think about the hitting mat being 8 feet away and curious if you ever have to worry about a pop up making contact with the bottom of projector

I’m struggling to find some info on gameplay for the skytrak vs skytrak plus. Driving range and numbers they give is cool. But my main goal is to play rounds with friends. Trying to figure out if the plus is worth the extra money for playing rounds vs the regular skytrak
Best vid on Garage SIm set up I have seen. Quick question....do you have any issues on the projector getting hit with possible errant shots?
Should have done a float texture and paint the garage to make it look finished completely

what was the net that you were using when u were showing budget options
Basic pop up net - you can find them anywhere for cheap
George with the wallet haha! Great set up Frank!
Are you able to hit your driver with the projector so close to the screen ?
Yes easily.
Can you run a garminr6 instead of rhapsodo?
I need JUST the enclosure. Don't see it listed
Roller shutter doors - not a thing in the US?

For the Rapsodo you need 8ft of travel from the ball to the net and the Rapsodo itself needs to sit about 6-8 feet behind the ball for it to work best.
Is the screen right up against your back wall, or is it out a ways?
The enclosure has a built in buffer about 1ft deep that stops the ball impact before it hits the wall behind.
Can you get a setup like this in the Philippines, without having to order it and pay a crazy amount of import taxes and fees? We're custom building a home in the next couple years, and I'll have one of these type of setups in our home.
One of yalls best videos. It’s inspiring me to make one in my garage as well. Glad to see there are options to raise the garage door.

Add a 2 -4 inch plywood subfloor so your not hitting off concrete.
I like my rapsodo just wish the usb was the way to direct connect
How do you get courses and stuff projected up there what software is that
Rapsodo’s built in courses and practice ranges
I cringed a little thinking I could certainly shank one into your iPad! 🙂 I'm 6'7" would my swing clear with an average driver length?
what model ipad is it ?
I feel like I would be concerned about hitting that projector with my driver. Is it just the angle of the camera or is it close
The projector is well out of the way of my golf swing and I've taken lots of swings in the sim without ever getting close to it. The way its designed to fit with the enclosure is pretty smart in that way.

Even 9.5 would be a problem if a taller friend ever wanted to come over. Good news: your backyard has a taller ceiling. Moreover, my backyard setup was HALF the price. Just saying. Your choice if you want to replace a $1,000 projector every time you use it.
@@JustMeAP1 oh I don’t have a projector nor will ever get one. I just sync my iPad to a larger tv that sits to the side. I’m not very tech savvy so the projector and impact screen aren’t a very high priority for me lol. I concur that the backyard would be ideal, however, I’ve already hit balls through two hitting nets. Actually the last time I did that, the ball went into my wall in my garage lmao! I got a heavy duty hitting mat, it should last a bit longer than just a normal golf net. Also, in my garage I don’t have to worry about rain or any other weather like snow and such. My garage gets plenty warm with just a space heater during the colder months.
@@Blackcloud319 Before my cage, I also had a net that I hit into with no problems. But after the cage, I and others hit several shots that would've gone outside the net. A golf ball came AT my house this year. Cost my neighbor's insurance $6,000. I don't see how people hit through nets, but I hear of it happening all the time. Now, my cage has a double net AND the impact screen - which causes balls to fall straight down instead of often straight back past me (so it's huugely more than just for the projector). The other big advantage of the cage is allowing me to tee-up farther from the net (nearly ten feet instead of less than six). This gives the launch monitor much more time to read the ball's motion for more accurate readings. I live in Tucson. No colder months. Generally, I would not consider weather anyway. More to the outdoor point, IMHO, are Asian Tiger Misquitos that have invaded the South. lol
"oh I don’t have a projector nor will ever get one. I’m not tech savvy so the projector and impact screen aren’t a very high priority."
Trust me, the projector is VERY cool - but much better at night. It is still visible during the day. My huuge problem with this video is the lack of any discussion about how it's EASY it is to hit it installed over your head. THAT (again IMHO) is a bigger issue than not feeling "tech savy" about forgoing one. The biggest tech issues are keystoning - to get a sidewise light make a square image, and how you plan on casting your phone (not a simple issue with Android tablets). Both my S24U phone and MS tablet can use a USB-C to HDMI convertor (as done in this video) but no Android tablets would.
Item # 1 next time,a Ladder 🪜
I’m surprised no one is using a short throw projector.
at 10:39 looking a bit like Tom Selleck ... correction, looking like Tom Selleck all the time .. lol
Only in America is this a small space haha
Next series: Add AC and Heat in the garage
I would like everyone to know I purchased this unit for launch monitor is good. The project is OK, but I want everybody to know that the enclosure is junk. It does not go together like they say it. Does you basically have to put it together and then leave half of it hanging for the screen to fit properly it comes from sky track. It was my fault for not returning it within the 30 days, but there are much better units out there than this thing I’m very disappointed in the whole thing as far as I’m concerned it was a waste of money.
Paint.....
Sadly my budget doesn't include the house, yet let alone a garage.
Spent all that money, they get rapsodo launch monitor 😂🤷♂️
I just made a full setup for about $1,100.00
No one talks about how low the rating is with the app.
Insightful but also confirms.. you get what you pay for
Once I saw 12' ceilings. I'm out
The garage ceilings are 9.5ft high and the garage doors were hung at 7ft until we lifted them to make room to swing.
Exactly Andy, looking at the height of a standard fridge, the 5 ft window, and the 2 1/2 - 3 ft above the window, somebody’s “math ain’t mathin” 🤔
You get a perfect lie no matter where you hit it. Just like the Pros !
For the love of god, please get a ladder
