How I Built a Luxury aboutGOLF Simulator Studio

Рет қаралды 51,710

Күн бұрын

When I came up with the idea for the Goin' FORE! It challenge to go from non-golfer to breaking 80 outside in one year by only learning on a simulator, I knew I would have to create a space that I would want to spend countless hours in. Because I wanted to document the journey, the simulator had to also double as a professional studio.
After almost a year of research, I knew that AboutGOLF had the technology I needed to learn the complete game of golf to have the best chance at hitting my goal, but since my space was a bit too narrow for their luxury set up, I chose the next best route, I went to Carl's Place, Home Depot, and Joanne Fabrics and built my own luxury simulator.
This was a huge project. I had to build a shed and transform my tandem garage space from a bike shop/storage area into what is now the Goin' FORE! It Sim Studio. I did all the work myself to save my budget for golf lessons.
I hope you enjoy the detail I went into about every aspect of the build and now you can have the confidence to build your very own luxury golf simulator!

Totally agree with @scottplaysgolf's comments! You kept my attention from beginning to end and your end product is extremely functional and attractive. What is your goal for your KZfaq channel?

@goinforeit 4 ай бұрын

Thank you, @jimsimpson2393! That really means a lot. We worked pretty hard on this one knowing it would probably be my most watched release with the most reusable info. My vision for the channel is a migrating style. The first part is to prove technology can change the way golf is learned. I play and learn inside for a year and see what I can score. This will give me content regarding the variables golf holds on an outdoor course vs. indoor sim, and allows me to then find the balance of indoor practice to outdoor practice to get a completed timeline of brand new to breaking 80 assuming I do not get there on my first round. I do hold realistic expectations. The channel will then migrate to a heavy focus on the new and average golfer. Taking my experience learning on a simulator, sharing it, and continuing to make golf more accessible by changing the way golf is learned by using simulator technology. Really drive home the idea of practicing indoor to improve your fun outdoors. Content on getting folks into the right sim for them. I will take my personal challenge from breaking 80 to breaking par and gaining a 0 handicap outside. That will include online competition and continuing my path of working with PGA Professionals to improve my game at a rapid pace. I will also have fun with notable courses by playing X course for a month and then taking a buddy to play the course outside who have never played the course, showing how you can use a sim to fully enjoy a bucket list course through preparation. So in short and by priority: 1: Beginner to average golfer simulator usage to increase accessibility and practice to supplement their outdoor game. 2: Documenting how quickly I can break 80, then par, then get a scratch handicap. 3: Simulator usage to maximize your bucket list golf trips. This is planned to continue over the next 2 - 3 years and will certainly evolve as the market changes. What do you think?

thanks for the video! I randomly found your videos and love the detail of how you put it together. Im building my sim right now and would love to see more info about the side foam panels! How would you have gone out to 6' if you did it again? Where did you source your foam for it? are you happy with how they bounce back if hit?

@goinforeit 10 ай бұрын

Thank you, and glad you enjoyed it! It was a fun project. The side panels are Owens Corning 703 2", I had to ship them in as they are a specialty product, and nobody locally stocked them. The shipping cost as much as a box of them, which is why I only went out to 48". In hindsight, I would have spent the extra $120 to come out to 60" for a better look on the sides and slightly better coverage on the ceiling. The impact is fine, I can't say I've hit it more than once or twice. The panels are semi-rigid foam, so they are already stiff(ish). To give me a solid mount I bought 1/2" styrofoam insulation panels the same size from HD and used the 3M 90 spray adhesive between the two. I had cut 59" black canvas duck fabric (10z) into pieces that would fit, placed the glued panels face down, sprayed a ton of the same adhesive on the back of the styrofoam panel about 4" around, and just folded the fabric over and held it so it stuck and kept a nice and tight look. The corners take some practice, but it's a simple project, just time-consuming. But far cheaper than buying panels. The mounting was 2 velcro strips from HD, one on each side pushed on the wall. I'm happy to talk you through it, just PM me and I'll give you my number.

Boom👏, this is the home sim build video I've been wishing for. Your setup (panels and paint are complete FIRE 🔥 ) Thank you for walking us through your entire thought process and build. Question about audio: you mention in the description that you are using a Bose 300 soundbar. Where did you place it? IE: how far back, position bottom, center, top? Would you have done something different for watching movies?

@goinforeit 9 ай бұрын

This comment made my day! Thank you for watching, and I really appreciate the kind words. If you look closely in the drone footage when I ride out of the garage, there is a window on the back wall. The sound bar is sitting on the window sill. It works 'okay', but It's not immersive for movies whatsoever. It's enough for sports, though. So it's basically 12" behind the center of the screen, halfway up. Would I have done something different? Absolutely. In fact, this gives me an idea for another video for the build series. I have to do an update video as the computer is different. I've added a touch screen, club rack, and I now have mounted swing cameras. I wanted to do a full Dolby Atmos setup so bad, but I simply didn't have the extra $2500 at the time. I will eventually install something like that when I decide we need it. As much as I want it, our family doesn't really get to into the sound on movies (probably because we don't know what we are missing). So yes, if you are building out your sim and have the gear already or the means to get a solid setup, I'd do a receiver and full Atmos setup for a truly immersive experience. Even on the sim, the sounds would be so much more fun. Enjoy your build!

@johny719 6 ай бұрын

Love your setup. In the process of doing the flooring, and was wondering what you used to nail down the putting turf and rough to the wood

@goinforeit 5 ай бұрын

Thank you! That is a great question. I had visions of adding some bits of foam under the turf to give my practice putts some movement, so I did not secure the putting surface or the gym flooring with anything. I never ended up doing that and It has never moved or become an issue. Towards the back of the studio, where I create the fringe, I used broad-headed finish nails from Home Depot (go to the specialty fastener section and look for the skinniest nail with the biggest head) and put nails in every 8" at the seam to keep that stuff down as it was constantly moving. The nails hide in the longer turf and are not noticeable. Ideally, I'd have used a pneumatic/electric finish stapler that can put in higher gauge staples that are long enough. If you want to secure your entire putting surface, I'd use reasonable spacing throughout without going overboard.

@stevenjakub 3 ай бұрын

Jeremy thank you for this video I have started my build out and am using so many of your features as my blueprint. Can you elaborate on how you affix your turf to the ground (the athletic mat and wood below)?

@goinforeit 3 ай бұрын

Hi Steven, thanks for watching! I'm glad you could take away a few features to put into your build. My floor is actually floating. Because I have borders on 3 sides, I didn't need to affix it to the ground. The OSB floor is cut with about 1/8" around all three sides to allow for expansion and contraction due to temperature changes in my space. The interlocking gym floor sits on top of the OSB floating as well. The putting surface is then laid on top from edge to edge and is tucked under a 1/2" edging I built out of insulation and wrapped in black duck fabric to hide the seam, but it's cut pretty darn tight to the actual room edges. I did take a few broad-headed penny nails and placed them about 10" apart on either side of the fringe that I cut and placed for cosmetic purposes. That simply keeps the fringe from moving when people walk over it. That means the putting surface is only secured with 8 or 10 nails at the back against the fringe. I've never had any issues with the flooring being installed as floating vs. glued down. This also allows me to make any changes in the future if needed without having to trash the entire floor upon removal. If that doesn't answer your questions as much as you'd like, shoot me an email and i'll gladly expand for you. tuftsje@gmail (.com)

So 5 months later, how do you like how you built the impact panels? Holding up well? Anything you would recommend or change?

@goinforeit 4 ай бұрын

I wouldn't change anything regarding the side impact panels. In fact, I am even happier that I didn't just buy them online.. For how much they cost pre-built, I simply would have been annoyed if I hadn't built them myself and saved a significant amount of money. They still look new, come off easy when needed, and I have had zero issues with them falling off. I will probably build it out to another 12" when the challenge is over and I take some time off golf, as the extra coverage would be nice. The only change I'd make is to the ceiling panels. I would (will) make more of the side panels and use those on the ceiling as well, rather than the foam sound tiles I used from Amazon. Mainly because the adhesive eventually fails and I have to constantly respray and reattach the tiles. I am going to make a video of exactly how I built the panels in the next couple of weeks. I've been asked a lot about them.

@@goinforeit Would you say with 12 feet wide it would be possible for left & right?

@goinforeit 3 ай бұрын

@@LafoRTS at 13' 8" wide, it's pretty tight. I'm 6'2" and don't have a flat swing, and I place the tee as far away from the wall as my unit will read so I have comfort swinging a driver. My lefty buddies do the same just out of comfort but have plenty of room as they are shorter than me. So if your launch monitor has a reading area that will allow you to do that, then yes, you'll be fine. But if you have to hit right in the middle, you will be limited to irons. I do have buddies who are 6'4" and they have room in my studio if they push it out. Longer explanation shorter... find out the area your monitor will read, mark it, and place the ball as far away as you can and swing a driver to see if you have room. I have a few friends who refuse to swing driver because they have a fear of hitting the wall, even if I take a video and show them they have ample room. I believe the minimum if you google it is 14', but you can get around that. 12' will rely 100% on the launch monitor's read area. If you haven't purchased one yet, just call the manufacturers you are looking at and get the area it will read. All are different. Good luck, and let me know!
