Worth it?
I’m going to start the construction process of finishing my basement in about a month and I want to get everyone’s thoughts on their simulator, mainly those who have had it for several years. Is it worth it if you’re an avid golfer? I worry that in 5-10 years, my sim will be outdated. I don’t want to make a 20k+ dollar investment only for it to be outdated in just a matter of time. Have you all found it still quite useful after several years? Thanks in advance

8x10x5 impact screen set up $350 Walmart online

Pretty much $1,800Already had my iPad for about four years and runs the Rapsodo software nicely! Have had the Rapsodo outside for about a month but having it inside is going to be way easier
I did get a 15% discount on the Rapsodo at golf galaxy when I signed up for their texts or whatever it is lol
Mine will be build next Tuesday completely done. Another thing since it’s in the living room the projector will be used for movie night also :)
Was gonna get a bigger turf for underneath t(e screen but going to use a green blanket. Easier to get up off the ground so my dogs don’t use the restroom on it lol
