I don't know how I missed this but would love to put something like this in my basement! Do you have the specs or plans?

8' x 8' framed out with 2x4s.  Two sheets of 4' x 8' smooth fiber board on top (3/4" thick).  Got some green patio outdoor carpet from Menards and glued it to the fiber board after installing the cups.  Rolls pretty true as well.  Speed very comparable to a nice green.  I placed the holes accordingly to give putting options up to 8'.  Costed around $150 or so.

Yeah that is pretty much what I did.

I just wish I had a place in the house to take a full swing. The garage ceiling is finished and I can't in there either....

Hello all, first post....

I've been visiting Vitense here in Madison on a regular basis and it looks like they're building new hitting bays.  The new bays look to be an improvement on the "open air with space heater" approach.

Also Door Creek golf course in Cottage Grove has 3 indoor simulators which I've been to a few times.

I picked up a cheap putting green from Golf Galaxy for the basement.  I may need to upgrade soon to something a little more substantial and realistic.

Welcome @3overafter1 ! I am headed to the simulator we have here in Oconomowoc next sat for the first time this winter. Should be fun. I think we will play pebble.

Cipher how is the simulator in oconmowoc? I haven't been able to sneak over there and see it for myself.

It is fun. Not the most accurate but they look very nice.

[Jakester23]

Nice I might have to get over there and give it a try.
