Unlock Your Perfect Swing: How Much Space Do You Need for a Golf Simulator?

At JAMMA Amusement, with 15 years of industry leadership since our establishment in 2009 in Guangzhou, we're dedicated to bringing the thrill of immersive entertainment to every venue. As specialists in high-value, one-stop solutions for amusement projects, we understand the growing demand for interactive experiences like our cutting-edge AR sports simulators. A prime example is the golf simulator, offering a year-round, all-weather golfing experience. One of the most common questions we hear is: how much space do you need for a golf simulator? Let's dive into the essential dimensions to help you plan your ideal setup, whether for a commercial facility or a personal luxury.

Understanding Your Golf Simulator Space Requirements

Accurate space planning is crucial for safety, comfort, and an authentic playing experience. While specific requirements can vary based on the model and launch monitor technology, general guidelines provide a solid starting point.

• Height: The absolute minimum ceiling height for a golf simulator is typically 9 feet (2.75 meters). However, 10 feet (3.05 meters) or more is highly recommended to accommodate various swing types and prevent club interference, especially for taller players or those with a steeper swing plane. This ensures maximum safety and an unobstructed swing.
• Width: You'll generally need a minimum width of 10 feet (3.05 meters). This allows for adequate room for the golfer to swing comfortably from both sides (if right and left-handed players will use it), space for the simulator screen or enclosure, and the launch monitor. An ideal width of 12-15 feet (3.65-4.57 meters) provides even more comfort and flexibility for setup.
• Depth: A minimum depth of 12 feet (3.65 meters) is required, but 15 feet (4.57 meters) is often preferred. This accounts for the distance from the hitting mat to the impact screen (usually 8-10 feet), plus additional space behind the golfer for their backswing and for the projector setup. Some ultra-short throw projectors might reduce the required depth slightly, but swing clearance remains paramount.

These dimensions provide a comfortable and safe environment, ensuring players can enjoy the full range of motion required for a realistic golf swing without hitting walls, ceilings, or equipment.
