Frequently Asked Questions
How much space do I need for golf?
We recommend a minimum 15′ wide by 17′ deep space with 10′ ceilings. Many people can get away with less space, but everyone is different.
What are the dimensions of the Murphy Golf Simulator?
What if I have less space than the recommended minimum?
We do offer and 8 foot model, but only recommend it to anyone who is extremely tight on space. The 10 foot model allows for a much more immersive golfing experience. The 8’ model is the same height and depth, but measures 8’10” wide.
Why is the space needed larger than the actual dimensions of the Murphy Golf Simulator?
Most golfers swing and club head will exceed the actual footprint of the unit in width, depth and sometimes height. Therefore a larger space is recommended. The best thing to do is find the center point on the wall where the unit will be installed, then measure out from the wall 10’ 6” from that center point. This will be the center of the hitting strip. Place a mark on the floor and swing your driver to be sure you have room to comfortably swing. (Note: The hitting deck is 2.5” tall and you will be actually standing on the deck of the Murphy Golf Simulator and standing 2.5” higher.)
Is the Murphy Golf Simulator free-standing?
No. This unit must be permanently attached to a structurally sound wall.
What if I have a lip / curb/ foundation wall in my garage keeping the unit from going directly up against the wall?
This is not a problem. We are experienced at installing units in this situation. The unit will be installed in front of the lip/curb and lumber will be used to furred out from the wall. There will be a small gap the depth of the lip/curb between the unit and the wall along the sides, and top.
What are the quality specifications and materials used to build the enclosure?
Quality Specifications
Quality 4x4 Construction
TFD Nylon Putting Turf
Padded Walls & Skyshield
HiQ Series Screen
How much does it cost?
There are many factors which should be considered when determining the price of each unit. One of the biggest factors is the actual launch monitor used to calculate ball and club specifics (The heart of the simulator). We have multiple launch monitors to choose from. Some sit on the hitting surface and some are mounted in the ceiling. Each has it own advantages and disadvantages and we can help you decide which might be best for you.
We also have options on the type of projector, gaming PC, and PC monitor available for each unit.
Other cost considerations are shipping, delivery, installation, and sales tax. The pricing on our website considers everything together to get you golfing here in the Kansas City area.

Yes. We install in six different states up and down the I-35 corridor: Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas. Additional delivery and trip charges will apply to installations outside of Kansas City. Contact us for pricing for your area outside the Kansas City area.
