Golf Simulator Accessories: What I Use and What Owners and Reviewers Report

Yardstick Golf

Quick summary· AI-generated

Lem Clevenger walks through his personal simulator setup—including his SurfThing SG3-5802 PC, Roxor control box, hitting mats, and various ancillary gear—then aggregates findings from other reviewers and buyers with transparent sourcing (vendor claims labeled, buyer comments cited). The piece assumes your launch monitor, screen, and projector are already in place and focuses on the accessories that improve daily usability and longevity, explicitly avoiding ranked awards or claims unsupported by owner feedback.

Excerpt from Yardstick Golf

Most golf simulator accessory lists read like a store’s inventory page. This page works differently. My own gear comes first: the computer, control box, mats, and tees I use in my own build, with plain notes on how each has held up. Everything after that reports what named reviewers and owners found, and every one of those claims links to its source. Vendor claims are labeled as vendor claims. Buyer comments from retailer pages are labeled as buyer comments. Nothing is written as my experience unless I actually used the product.

The assumption throughout is that the big pieces are handled, so your launch monitor, screen, and projector are already running or on the way. If you are earlier in the process, start with our launch monitor guide, then browse all of our accessory guides before circling back here. This page is for the indoor golf accessories that make an existing setup easier to live with, shot after shot.

How I Sourced This Page

Every “I” on this page is me, Lem, and it only refers to gear in my own simulator. Any other claim names the reviewer, forum poster, or store page it came from, with a link. Descriptions written by a maker or seller are labeled as vendor claims. Comments left on retailer product pages are labeled as buyer reviews. None of these products has enough Yardstick owner survey responses yet, so nothing here is scored, ranked, or given an award. Our how we rate page explains the bar an award has to clear.

My Golf Simulator PC: SurfThing SG3-5802

In my build

This is the high-end option in my build. The SurfThing SG3-5802 is screaming fast, it came with everything I needed to run the simulator, and it has been a low-maintenance workhorse. I start it fresh at the beginning of every session, so it does not sit powered on around the clock.

A sim room asks a lot from a computer. The graphics load runs the whole time, the launch monitor needs a steady connection, and a camera feed may be recording on top of both. Whatever you buy, the safe move is more graphics card than you think you need, since sim…
