    Great little setup. Only suggestion would be to spend the money on a nice hitting mat, not only will the turf feedback feel better but you won't destroy your wrists if you happen to not have a perfect swing and hit fat shots.

    While you were in the attic pulling the wires, you just have just added a support to actually mount the project instead of drive wall screws

    Very interesting video and cool to see your entire build process and lessons learned...
    I know for me it made me realize I'd rather just pay a bit more and have the kit ready to install as I don't have the same skills/patience that you do.

    • @mynameisprivate158
      @mynameisprivate158 Před rokem +1

      Just measure the focus range of the projector you plan on buying so the projector doesn't end up right over your htting area like this one did!

  • @theciz86
    @theciz86 Před rokem +3

    I’ve been using the almost golf balls with the r10. I have a diy build and had some serious bounce backs. Way easier to dodge a almost golf ball coming straight at you off a 2x4 than a real one. Def worth it for a set up like this.

    @ApHoney Před rokem +3

    I'm going to be taking this on in the summer/fall for next winter, and in my one bay garage I'll be building the framework into the walls and hinging it. Some light material with some foamboard covered in black cloth is the route ill be taking. Nice build man, always love watching your videos. Love the floor too!

  • @Jimmythepin
    @Jimmythepin Před 10 měsíci +6

    Only because I speak from experience........... You WILL end up hitting the 2 x 4s with a golf ball, and the ricochet can, and probably will be, catastrophic! Dented cars, broken windows/windshields, injured golfers, etc. I HIGHLY recommend covering the 2 x 4s with pipe insulation foam tubing. The balls will still bounce back, but with much less force.

  • @ken34258
    @ken34258 Před rokem +1

    Why not put a net on top that first ball landing area, so that when it bounce it just catch by the net?

  • @johncallicutt5994
    @johncallicutt5994 Před rokem +1

    I dodged the bounce back by building a small catch net with golf netting and pvc. Made it about 3 feet tall and set it just beyond my swing reach. I can see over the net to the screen so it doesn't block my view. Angled the net backward so it drops the ball straight down. It catches 98% and keeps them in one place. Balls never actually hit the screen. Works very well with optishot since only the clubbed is tracked. Can't speak for the other systems.

    You ran the wire for your light, you could have also done the wires for the iPad and tv. They make CL3 rated HDMI cables. And you could have placed the projector just about anywhere. You just have to dig into the picture adjustment menu for keystone correction, image size etc

    • @mynameisprivate158
      @mynameisprivate158 Před rokem +1

      You really can't do keystone very well when you use a short throw projector or ultra short throw projector. A little bit you can but the image gets bad real fast. Not unless the projector has lense shift!

    • @matthewviviano3653
      @matthewviviano3653 Před rokem

      @@mynameisprivate158 I was just saying that he didn’t necessarily have to place the projector in that one particular spot because there are adjustments in the menu he could have used. He didn’t seem to be aware that he could do that.

    • @mynameisprivate158
      @mynameisprivate158 Před rokem

      The Mevo+ is great as long as you have the 8-10 feet space behind your hitting area. It is alos forgiving back there if you have some unskilled golfers try out your simulator. If you don't have the spave then a Skytrack is a good option as it only needs like 8-12 inches to the side of the ball.
