I Build A $30,000 Golf Simulator In The Garage

What happens here

The video begins with the presenter articulating the vision for a high-end golf simulator. He then demonstrates his planning process by sketching ideas on a tablet, outlining areas for a dropped ceiling to conceal utilities and prevent golf ball damage, an integrated putting green, and custom modular storage units for organization. To prepare the space, the existing golf simulator enclosure (including the impact screen and surrounding black fabric) is carefully detached and removed. Following this, the artificial turf flooring from the previous setup is rolled up and taken out, clearing the floor space to act as a 'blank canvas' for the new construction.

Goal: The initial phase involves conceptualizing the new garage layout, identifying areas for structural additions like a drop-down ceiling and modular storage, and then systematically dismantling existing components of the old setup to create a clean workspace.

Tools and materials

  • Artificial Turf (old)
  • Black Fabric/Curtains
  • Existing Golf Simulator Enclosure
  • Impact Screen
  • Tablet/iPad with Stylus

What they say

Hide

canvas. So, let's do that. Okay. So, here is the picture of how things were. And my biggest problem is this space up top here. Looks weird. It's empty. I got rails there. Uh, it looks completely incomplete. So, what I'm going to do is put a drop down ceiling up there. Now, that's going to do a couple of things. Not only aesthetics, but that's also going to keep the balls from somebody grabs a sand wedge, flings it, and they're not going to hit the garbage, the the lights that up there, the drywall, the garage door opener. Now, my next concern is the putting green. Uh, it's great. It's a nice little mat. I I still need to get a hitting mat. However, because this is an actual outdoor putting green that I was able to score on Facebook Marketplace, what I want to do is build a platform down below. And what that'll allow us to do is put actual putting green holes that I can actually putt on the the mat and not just have it there for, you know, to look pretty. The next order of business is my problem on this right hand side. I need to organize everything. Number one, I'm going to hang a big TV right down in the middle here. I want some storage lockers that we can take all of these golf bags and store them in there. Put maybe a shelf in there for shoes or anything else that might need to go in there. On this other side, I think we're going to do some kind of accent wall here. Maybe like a cleated kind of system. And here's the big kicker that's really gonna make a huge vibe, if you will. like the kids say is we need some accent lighting because I'm not going to bank on an actual light fixture. What I want to do is because we're going to have this drop ceiling, I want lights uh to overglow from that drop ceiling on top. I want some back lighting or up lighting on this cleated wall system that we're going to have and accent lighting on this storage system here. It's just going to create this cool little ambiance that we're all about. Basically making the space so dope that you're never going to want to leave. you're going to live here and uh it's going to get so good that we're probably going to bring a couch in here. So, first things first, let's start working on our drop
