Come to korea. You will find a place with simulators like this within a mile of where you are. They even have a professional league playing golf in the simulator. Pro golfer often come and compete in off-season. I think this is a great way to enjoy the game of golf in off-season when it’s too cold and snowy to play golf outside.
In australia, a company called Big Swing Golf has these as their simulators that you can use for about $20/hr. Similar $ to a large bucket of balls at a driving range. They run competitions using them, and it's like ten pin bowling with food, drinks, etc - if you want that. Kids birthday parties too - and they can do the other sports if they want. It's really easy to use, but I can't stand putting on it - very hard to gauge the speed of the putt needed. And I've had the occasional "flyer" - a shot that's gone 10-20 yards further than the rest, which is weird. Overall, a great tool, great fun. Takes up less land than a driving range too. Never as good as the real thing, but the air conditioning inside is great in summer...
Haven’t played golf in the UK since last September..without the pandemic the weather makes it almost impossible to play let alone the conditions of golf courses. If you have the money I would buy the best I could get without doubt.
for something to be over priced you would need to be able to get somthing of the same quality for less, but you cant so it isnt. the word you want to use was expensive.
Worthless ? Because of the pricetag ? First if you have the money, no one has to tell you how to spend it. Second, let those who can afford a home simulator enjoy the many useful features and confort they provide.

got fitted and played 3 competition rounds at silverware, always been a great experience
The ballflight graphics seem really realistic..and the instant ballflight is a big plus.
The curvature on Trackman always looks a bit strange.
Beautiful swing Joel!
are there any simulators that use varying lengths of turf? I've never seen or heard of it. Just curious.
Yes there are. You can get mats that simulates rough or bunkers.
Great video - cool tech golf-simulator!
How long does the screen last?
I wonder why infront of the mat they dont make that area slightly shaped so it feeds the ball bak to you feet?
can you also test Tiger Wood's $80k Driving Simulator?
Better than a Trackman set up???
My life would be OVER
lol doesn't sound he's getting commission at all.....
50k 😂 What a rip off. These simulators are so over priced!
Sure. If you're poor.

How about going to the actual range and playing actual golf. How many rounds can you play for 50k. Worthless "tech". Vitamin D is priceless.
Maybe its bad weather, closed because of a pandemic, could be multiple of reasons.

Sounds like somebody has nice weather all year round.
How about doing both? How about having a driving range in your home 24/7? How about using question marks when you ask a question?
It's fun for a game night with the friends.
