Will your ceiling fit a sim?

The most common pre-purchase blocker, and the one no launch monitor fixes: the swing sets the ceiling. Set your ceiling, your height and your swing, and get the same ceiling check the room planner runs, with Shop Indoor Golf’s height table, our model of a typical driver swing, and the sources behind both.

The planner is strict on purpose. Where sources disagree it uses the strictest published figure, and its swing model errs on the high side. Some golfers do play in smaller rooms than it allows. We would rather a plan leave you some margin, so you can buy with confidence, than have you find out the room is too small after the screen is up.

Want to see it? The room planner draws your whole room to scale, with your swing, screen, launch monitor and projector, and checks each clearance.
