Thanks for your help Jay! Haven’t gotten into the online leagues yet but can see how that would be a blast. Hopefully soon!

Amazing build, great advice before I start my build. Can’t wait to get my planning permission back. ⛳️

Legit setup. Way to go! Enjoyed your thoughtful attention to detail and sharing that. Garage addition in progress, going to put in a sim. I'd love this kind of setup.

Thank you. One of the best reviews and descriptions out there!

Really excellent set up for a "DIY" solution, I think you nailed it. So many out there want the "cheapest possible" but I think there is a market for this much nicer setup and you crushed it. I had never heard of the Roxor product, thanks for sharing!

What a great set up!! Nice job man. You give some great insight on things to expect when building your own set up.

Great setup, awesome video and a lot of great info. I apologize if I missed this in the video but what are the measurements of the space? Looks like maybe 14' wide x 10' high x maybe 10' or 12' where the hitting area is. I am trying to plan out my hitting space and wanted to see how much space I really need.

Thank you! To drop the Eye XO I used 1/2” pipe with flanges on each end. Drilled holes to match in the bracket and bolted together. The Roxor controller has a threaded insert in the bottom that will mount to most tripods. Hope that helps!

I just bought that same projected from SIM golf. Waiting for it to arrive. I’m like a kid on Christmas right now! I will say, I had the country club elite mat as well, but had to switch to Fiberbuilt. I got some nasty golfer’s elbows from the CCE mat. Hopefully you don’t end up in the same spot. We have a very similar setup in the garage, with the curtains on the side in order to move when snow is in the forecast! Awesome set up. Thanks for all the details. I may look into a Uneekor. I’m currently running a SkyTrak, but the additional club info looks amazing. Awesome vid as always, bud!

Thank you! And thanks for the advice on golf mats. I haven't had any joint pain from the CCE mat but have noticed that it really penalizes fat shots. Improvement-wise, it has caused me to hit the ball more pure but can be frustrating for others when playing in a group. The club data from Uneekor is insane and has definitely helped me identify what I need to refine in my swing.

I started with an expensive 5x10 piece of Sym turf (TeeLine) which is pretty close to the CCE mat in how its built and feels. My issue was that in a garage setting where we could not move around the mat much because of space issues and the ball had to be struck in a small area only we wore that expensive material down quickly! If you can't move around much this is why you see most evolve into a replaceable hitting strip setup. So essentially I spent $1000 for a mat that I couldnt use anymore!

Curious what rough turf and putting turf you went with? Cheers! Looks fantastic

great one! One question: How is the quality for filming or gaming?

Brill video and set-up mate, thanks for all the info. How is the memory foam holding out, has it created any sag in the frame from the extra weight?

As everyone else said, amazing video, clearly you designed and succeeded in creating a dream simulator. My question is can you go into more detail about how you wired everything to an AV receiver, and how the projector screens works as a second monitor and so on. I love the idea of that for use of golf sim, gaming, movies but you lost me with the details of the wiring. One other question is, if you were to be designing a designated space for this set up, how many power outlets would you have wired? What other wiring would you set up before installing?

Hey @Rogue Engineer, I love your setup and I'm thinking about doing something very similar. Just curious, which size enclosure did you choose? Thanks!

Looks great! Love to do something similar. How does everything hook to your computer. Running 2 HDMI? Ethernet for the sensor? What about controlling the computer from a different room?

I am building a very similar setup. I liked your idea for the formulae insulation on th flooring - how is that holding up? Would you recommend it over EVA foam pads?

Very useful. What is ceiling height of your garage? What is distance from projector lens to impact screen?

Love the video and setup. On the landing area, you’re the first that I’ve seen use an insulator board vs gym mats. When you drive your car in (assuming you do that), do you just lift the landing area up and store it? I’ve been struggling with trying to figure out how to park the car in the area with my enclosure. Your setup might work if I could lift the whole landing area up. And does the insulation board do a good job of slowing down balls off the screen? Thanks!

@rogueengineer

Жыл бұрын

I don't often park cars in this area so I don't have to move it frequently but yes it is light and would lift up all in one piece to store against the screen. The floor is great for putting but you wouldn't want to count on it for slowing balls down. Thats the job of the screen and the foam mattress topper behind it.

Awesome setup! What is the height off the ground to the bottom of the uneekor eye xo? I’m in the process of building one one and I want to make sure I have enough clearence with someone’s swing path

Thanks. Planning for one in same $20,000 price range late 2023-2024. How do we choose?? 1- Other than ceiling mount, why did you choose Uneekor EYE XO over so many others? 2- Are these up-gradable in any way say a few years after purchase? ie. does software improve etc. or are you stuck with what you buy? 3. Putting - No simulator seems to talk much about how the putting works and/or how well. Can anyone help me understand that? 4. Can you connect/watch movies/netflix/TV etc on this giant screen? 5. Why did you buy from Carls instead of a place that has all in one package options like shopindoorgolf? Do you think you got a better all around price buying separately? I'm not as handyman as you so the more complete all in 1 package with great instructions is a big factor for me. Thanks very much for any thoughts suggestions or any other videos that cover how to decide.

Damn dude. You spared no expense. How often do you use it.

Excellent video, thank you! Does your eyexo have issues with your floor not being level? I’m assuming it’s not level because it’s a Garage. Uneekor told me they can’t guarantee accuracy if the hitting surface is not level

Thank you! Luckily my floor is level but if you don't have a level floor I'm sure you could figure out a way to level the hitting area.

Awesome build and very well made. Behind the screen did the memory foam make a difference with bounce back/sound? If so did you just dangle the pad in mid air or have it right up against the back of the screen?

Do you think having any kind of extra padding whether it is a memory foam pad like yours, heavy blankets etc that the additional material behind the screen technically wears the screen quicker since it cuts the amount of screen "throw" down? Hopefully that makes sense.@@rogueengineer

I did, liked the Eye XO because it was ceiling mounted. The quad would need to be moved in and out and switched sides for right vs leftys.

Hey, I did the same thing with the moving blanket and had the same results; the blanket got torn up. The problem with this is the 'black' stuff that came out of the moving blanket got on the balls and then transferred to the screen leaving a noticeable dark area on the screen; essentially ruining the screen. The screen still functions fine, but you can definitely notice the dark area around the center of the screen where all the balls hit. I hope you didn't have the same problem. For all those reading this, DO NOT use a moving blanket behind your impact screen. Just use a comforter or light blocking shade.

I'm currently working on designing a simulator using the eye xo. Our plan is to convert our home gym. 16' x 20' x 15' My plan is to cut into the existing wall for the impact screen, filling the wall with 3-4 inch memory Foam. The impact screen would run flush with the wall, giving it a nice framed look. I envision using retractable netting/curtains on both sides and top. You would be able to clip and unclip them to the frame and surrounding walls whenever the simulator is being used, while also using the space as a media room similar what you have done. 1. Can I layer the impact screen directly on top memory foam without having additional air space behind the memory foam? 2. Do you actually need an enclosure or could you just attach the curtains along the perimeter of the impact screen/padded frame?

What are the dimensions of the actual screen? 7:43
