Indoor golf simulator: FAQs

Do you bring your own clubs to virtual golf?

You can bring your own clubs to virtual golf, and it’s often recommended so that any practice you’re putting in is using the clubs you use regularly on the course. However, you’ll often find that virtual golf venues will provide clubs you can use for free or for a small fee.

How realistic is virtual golf?

The best golf simulators can be very realistic, often offering metrics such as distance and ball velocity with an accuracy within 1-2%. However, there are some aspects of the course that a golf simulator cannot replicate, such as the effect of weather conditions.

How do you win virtual golf?

Just like when you’re out on a real course, you need to work on your golfing technique to improve your ability in virtual golf. You may also want to practice playing virtual golf, as some aspects of the game will feel very different from playing a round outdoors.

How does virtual golf work?

Most golf simulators use either cameras or radar to track metrics such as your swing speed, launch angle, and carry distance. To use a golf simulator, all you need to do is set up your ball on the hitting mat and hit the ball as you would on the course. The ball will hit the impact screen, and you’ll be able to follow your virtual ball’s flight on the screen.
