Prefab Sim Shed

[SC Pilgrim]

Does anyone have any experience with pre fab sim sheds? Pros/cons? Suggestions?

Are you talking about just a normal shed, like from Lowe’s and putting your sim up in it? 
If so, that would work fine. You would just need to get electric run to it and insulation and heating/cooling depending on your climate. 
 

you’d need a fairly large one too, Depending on the sim. Radar based you need at least 8-10ft in front of your hitting area to read the ball and 6-10ft behind to set it up. 

 

For camera/sensor based you would just need the room in front for screen/net. 
 

I would say 9ft ceiling minimum, 10ft would be better. 
Then enough room left to right for you to swing comfortably and keep your clubs somewhere.

Thanks for the info.  I saw a company that offers what appears to be a turn key setup but wanted to see if anyone had experience going that route vs building it piece meal.  The company was out of the northeast, so I can imagine getting it hauled to SC might be cost prohibitive!

IMHO Im in the Northeast and shopped around for months. Bottom line was just to order one and have it delivered completed.  My research seemed to be that big box store kits use inferior wood and could be more structually sound..i beleive one i was researching from Lowes had a 10 ft run and had either 3 or 4 studs along that wall.   
 I also ran the option of completely building one myself.  I have access to the tools.  But after speaking with several carpenters, they said just order one and have it delivered completed. 
 Good luck. Send us pics when ur done.  My shed unfortunately holds numerous bikes, shovels and tools.

I used a company called Woodtex out of waaay upstate NY.  Price seemed fair.  I was able to completely customize several options free of upcharge. All online ordering a d customization. 
   I have had it about 3 full years.  Seems to be holding up well. 
   I wish i would have thought of ordering a large enough one to add a launch monitor!!!!!!!
