I did the same original build you have and have the same issues. $4k may be double the cost of the alternative but it's 100% worth it! I wish I had known about this company previously.
This was one of my biggest stress points in deciding what turf to put down for my sim I am creating this summer. This is a no brainer now! Simple and easy
I cut out a larger area where your feet and hitting area is and placed 2 turf mats in that area so you can change each strip out when needed. The area where your feet go is going to wear down and doesn't look great over time and obviously the hitting area has to be replaced as it wears down. Other thing I have experienced is the EZ Hybrid wears down much faster than the EZ Poly.
I recently put a golf simulator in my house as I recover from third back surgery. I’ve got a great set up far better than I thought would turn out. It was surprisingly affordable as well. I also know I could have done a nice set up for much cheaper than I spent. My point simulators aren’t only for super wealthy. Price point wise tons of options. Main issue is having enough space.
I like how he does things. MSG explains to us what he is going to do and then does it. Holds our hands like a dad. I just do things without explanation and when people ask me why did you do that? I say I don't know. Works for me.
Glad I found this in my feed. I am currently building a house that will have a golf sim room. I hadn’t given the flooring any thought, before this. This vid probably saved me a couple thousand.
Looks great Matt, nice job fitting it. I've recently fitted a sim in my garage, unfortunately nowhere near the same amount of room but I suppose that kept the costs down a bit! I'm currently hitting off a similar setup with foam puzzle mats underneath a putting turf, but I have some slightly more premium putting turf with which I'm going to make a 1' x 2' hitting mat, gluing it to the top some acrylic (perspex), and sticking low density foam strips 1" wide by 1/2" thick to the bottom of the acrylic sheet which will be in contact with the floor. I'll have to wait see if this has enough give to it when hitting balls but it should look great when finished 🤞 If not, the style of sim turf you've used might be the way to go!
Hey Matt, is there a reason why you went with Trackman VS. GC Quad? Seems like the latter is much more suited for indoors as it's camera based? Love your videos sir. Keep it coming!!
Great info as always! I live down Stockbridge, GA. I would gladly take the old turf off your hands until I can save up enough for the “best of the best of the best!”
Another great mat is Sig Pro Softy. I've had mine for a year and the mat has worn very well. You almost cannot tell where I line up my 270 pound frame to hit!
Nice upgrade, definitely makes the studio look more professional, a little pricy but should be worth it in the long run, makes us all jealous that you have such a nice simulator set up, maybe one day....................
Looks good overall! It still looks like the hitting strip sits up from the surrounding turf though? Are you worried about wearing a hole in the turf where your feet stand/pivot?
That is not bad at all! Looking at SigPro or Fiberbuilt putting/hitting combo mats non-custom you’re still looking at $3k-$5k. Anyway we can get a hitting surface comparison to see how it plays/feels vs the more well known mats?
Echoing some other comments. Enjoyed this episode. Can you give a run down of your impact screen setup? Also your thoughts on the Trackman setup with $$$ if possible.
This question isn't about the turf but...where did you get the screen mechanism that raises and lowers the screen? I have searched for months for something like that and can't find anything...
Hey Matt, How is the new sim room turf holding up? Would like to hear your thought after using for a few months. Mostly interested in the hitting surface you changed to. I am getting my info together to get a quote from simturf.
The spot where you hit your irons is literally perfect already. The ball will only hover if you fat the shot. A sim is never going to be as good as grass but a setup like yours takes the pain out of your wrist. The tee problem has already been solved. Used BirTees.
Good job Matt! I sell and install golf sims and installing the turf is my least favorite part. EZ Tee Hybrid is my favorite hitting surface. I sell those and the same turf, could've saved you a good chunk on all that but nice work! Now you just need to swap out the Trackman for a GCQuad to get more accurate indoor numbers!
I know they gave it to you for free for shouting them out but I still would of had them install it. A few months later your bad carpentry skills will start to show lol.
To think a couple of years ago you were hitting into a net in your backyard out in California and now you got this professional quality simulator and room!! Well earned and deserved Matt!! 🏌♂⛳😀

It seems the sound in the room changed! It sounds awesome!

PXG uses simturf in all their studios as well!!
Sim room looking awesome!
Wow. So glad you upgraded I know my indoor sim the turf wears from irons very fast and they have replacement pieces
😮 Nice work, Matt! Far from the days of the pvc hitting bay in your backyard! 😄

That is a clean looking sim room!!
Have always adminred your golf sim room. Been following from the early days when you were on the west coast.

Great Vid. I would like to know where did you purchase your golf impact screen mechanism. Are you going to update it also? Thanks

Just an absolute dream setup!
I like how you got all spiffed up to test er out at the end, Great job doing that your self, looks great.
Great set up! Enjoy!
I've had a 5'x5' piece of the ez tee hybrid turf in my garage with foam tiles underneath for 2 years now and it looks good as new
Very nice set up, Matt!
Wow, what a great set up. My practice area is outside, but if i ever go inside, I'll look up this company.
Doesn’t get any more top of the line than SimTurf. Best in the business!
Sounds way better in that studio now! And putting drills is sure to be a thumbnail at some point now.
Five iron golf uses Simturf!!
Pretty good! EZ Tee is fantastic. Now you just need to load up GSPro and play some sim golf courses!
You should review Golf Daddy. You're very unbiased and everyone would love to know if a $99 simulator is accurate at all.
Love my Simturf Eztee hybrid strip. Th best ive used. I use a 1 by 2 inserted into my turf and could not be happier. Stays in place well.
same, i love it. I've tried others here and there and nothing compares
You make me so envious
Looks great!
We love how excited you get when you do stuff like this! Great video, MSG. We luv-u more! :-)
Great job… If you put the Stimpmeter on it for putting, what would you get? Thanks
Their website states 10.5 stimp.
Echoing some other comments. Enjoyed this episode. Can you give a run down of your impact screen setup? Also your thoughts on the Trackman setup with $$$ if possible.
Outstanding!
Very good video informative
What screen and hanging rollup attachment do you use?
Good good balls 🤙🏻
Hey loved the video! What did you do with your old turf! Would love to take it off your hands… it would make my birthday!
500k subsribers you get yourself a professinal setup !!
How do you practice flop shots etc? Stand closer to the screen??
I have the eztee hybrid strip from simturf and its awesome
Nice job. 😍
Nice work. I hope one day I will have enough space and money for a golf room.
Neatly done ✔
You have any spare launch monitors laying around?
Ill take the old one from ya! Id put it to good use!
Just curious as to why the outside strip looks like a different color than the rest of the turf?
Matt ever thought of putting a net to the ceiling so you can hit high wedge shots?
This question isn't about the turf but...where did you get the screen mechanism that raises and lowers the screen? I have searched for months for something like that and can't find anything...
great video!

Fantasic video! Fantastic room! I will be over everyday to help you use it. See you soon!
Very nice
straighten out those flags.. gives me vertigo..! ha.. great video though. Wish i had a space that big.
Nice!!!
What is the impact screen?
May I asked what kind of room that originally was? Is it a basement room or a garage?
Hey maybe I missed it, but how tall are your ceilings?
Why don't use use birtees for the tees?
Nice video neighbor:)
What is the height of the ceiling, and what is the bare minimum for a driver? I'm 5' 10" thanks.
How tall is the ceiling?
Interesting video Matt. Hopefully one day i win the lottery 🙏
I see you’re using gspro now, at least your thumbnail was.
It's not good when anything meets your side piece Matt!!!🤣
How high is your ceilings?
Hey, I'll take your old hitting mat! 🙂
What is your room height?
Great video. Wish I had your first world “problems”😂
You need to get yourself a GSPRO wireless control box. I'll even inlay your MSG logo in the print. I make BA custom products control boxes
Get K2 Tees for the sim. Best sim tees available. Don't wanna be chasing wood tees.
12:36 Saved 45cents… the cheek man. Hundreds of dollars
What about the Monster Mat review?
I did one of those and it was not good
Hi MrSG, still doesn't seem like it is 100% level and like it would impact those 20ft diagonal putts.
The spot where you hit your irons is literally perfect already. The ball will only hover if you fat the shot. A sim is never going to be as good as grass but a setup like yours takes the pain out of your wrist. The tee problem has already been solved. Used BirTees.
We were getting a ton of shots too high on the club face
@@MrShortGame Hope the new setup works better for you. Would you let us know if the turf is harsh on your wrist overtime?
Hey Matt you may be forgetting that in England that room is the size of most houses 😢
Good job Matt! I sell and install golf sims and installing the turf is my least favorite part. EZ Tee Hybrid is my favorite hitting surface. I sell those and the same turf, could've saved you a good chunk on all that but nice work!
Now you just need to swap out the Trackman for a GCQuad to get more accurate indoor numbers!
Time to do a witb 2024
$20/sf for just the MATERIAL is outrageous.
Did I see a GoodGood golf ball?
in the video you say 20' width. But the chart shows 16'. No?
Can I swing by and pick up your old turf??
No Home Depot visit and no ER visit 🎉
let’s gooo new mr short game video yeahhhhh fuck yeah america let’s gooooo
any chance you need another son? That room looks like a dream dude!
I only wish I could.
I know they gave it to you for free for shouting them out but I still would of had them install it. A few months later your bad carpentry skills will start to show lol.
That’s pretty cheep compared to what I thought it would be.
YOU SHOULD'VE GOT YOUR TURF FROM ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Their prices have been going up every time i get on to order a new hitting strip. All this main stream attention is hurting my wallet
I’d be happy to take all your old turf off your hands!
You're living the middle aged dream sir! Definitely on my "future goals" list. Enjoy the new setup! 🩳🎮
"Oh Matt... you didn't have to do that for us"
To think a couple of years ago you were hitting into a net in your backyard out in California and now you got this professional quality simulator and room!! Well earned and deserved Matt!! 🏌♂⛳😀
Looking good dude…almost at PF, RS and JR levels! 🏌🏻♂Look forward to further updates.
