Golf is a sport with several limiting factors: like time, weather and accessibility. That’s why more golfers than ever are investing in home golf simulators.
These simulators recreate the real-world golfing experiences we face out on the course. They allow golfers to practise our swing, play world-class courses and analyse data on ball speed, spin rate, and distance – all without opening the front door.
Like with everything, it does come with a cost. But what exactly is the cost of a golf simulator? Well, it depends on several factors, including your available space, the quality of your equipment and the level of realism you want to achieve.
Here at SimSpace we have a range of golf simulators at different price points. In this guide, we’ll break down the average cost of a home golf simulator, explore the different budget levels, and highlight how SimSpace products offer exceptional value and performance for every type of golfer.
The Variety
A complete golf simulator setup typically includes four key components: the enclosure or impact screen; the launch monitor and software; the display or projector; and various accessories such as mats and nets. All these factors will determine the price.
If you’re just getting started, you can build an excellent in-home golf simulator on a modest budget. At this level, you can pair your SimSpace enclosure with a budget-friendly launch monitor to create a basic but highly functional home golf simulator. For some, it's best to start small and build over time.
Alternatively, our entry-level golf simulators start at £559. The SLX Hybrid Mini Practice Net Bundle is one of our marquee options for those looking to take practice sessions to the next level. It allows you to take advantage of accurate ball-flight data and a realistic practice experience without leaving your home.
If you have a bit more space and want an even more immersive experience, mid-range simulators strike the balance between cost and performance. These setups offer larger impact screens, improved sound-dampening, and a more professional appearance suitable for a dedicated golf room.
Our FlightScope Mevo+ Home Simulator Bundle is the perfect candidate. It goes beyond being just a launch monitor – it's an all-in-one tool for practice, training, and entertainment. With built-in video analysis, skills challenges, and a robust practice app, you can fine-tune every aspect of your game. You’ll benefit from enhanced shot accuracy, better graphics and the ability to play virtual rounds on famous courses.
For golfers who want the ultimate experience or are designing a commercial space, premium golf simulators are the way to go. The Garmin Approach R50 Home Simulator Bundle costs £6,130. For this, golfers can take advantage of the first portable launch monitor with a built-in golf simulator. It makes transitioning from home life into golf practice mode seamless.
This investment delivers tour-level accuracy from an experience that is almost identical to playing outdoors. It’s ideal for golfers who want to practise year-round or for those creating an indoor golf simulator business.
In summary
The average cost of a home golf simulator varies depending on your setup. Entry-level options begin around £1,300, mid-range simulators fall between £3,000 and £5,000, and premium systems can exceed £10,000. Whatever your budget, SimSpace has a golf simulator that can transform any room into your dream set-up.
