How deep, step by step
How much room depth is needed?
Start with 14 ft of depth, but leave more room between the ball and screen where possible.
Allow 14 ft minimum or 16 ft comfortable by this site's estimate. The calculation combines a 1 ft screen gap, an assumed 8 ft ball-to-screen distance and about 5 ft for the backswing.
Foresight supplies the screen-gap guidance, not Square Golf. Square Golf publishes no ball-to-screen distance; the calculator uses 10 ft for comfortable spacing. These are planning allowances, not a maker-approved installation.
Gap behind the screen
1′Foresight: “1 foot from back wall to projector screen”.
Ball to screen
8′Square Golf publishes no figure; the calculator uses 8′ as the minimum.
Backswing room
5′Beside the ball: nothing stands behind the golfer; this site allows 5′ for the swing.

In the maker’s words
What room dimensions does Square publish?
Square Golf publishes no minimum depth, width, ceiling height or ball-to-screen distance on the official pages checked on October 17, 2026. There are no competing official room figures to reconcile.
This review uses official information and shop prices. The swing model is this site's estimate, calibrated on SkyTrak, Trackman and Foresight statements—not a measurement. Use the room calculator to adjust for your height and club.
Treat the room figures as planning estimates, not Square Golf specifications.

Will it fit
Will it fit your room?
Ceiling height stops more of these sample rooms than floor space does.
For a 5′9″ golfer using a driver, this site's model marks the garage tight at a 9 ft ceiling. The basement and spare bedroom fail on ceiling height; the bedroom also lacks depth.
The dedicated room clears the model with its 10 ft ceiling. That result does not promise a safe swing. Check with slow swings first; ceiling protection and ball rebound protection remain the owner's call.

Where it costs what
What does the Square launch monitor cost?
Rain or Shine Golf listed it at $639 on October 19, 2026, below Square Golf's $699 listing that day. GolfBays also listed $699; The Indoor Golf Shop listed $699.99 on the same date.
In Britain, GolfBays UK listed it at £689 on October 19, 2026. Shop prices change daily, so compare the dated listings rather than treating the calculator price as a current quote.
The calculator uses Square Golf's dated maker-store price, not the lowest shop listing.
Against the alternatives
How do nearby alternatives compare?
Compare available depth and recurring fees before choosing by purchase price.
Rapsodo listed the MLM2PRO at $549.99 on October 19, 2026. Garmin listed the Approach R10 at $499.99 on October 17, 2026. Both sit behind the ball; this site's depth estimates are 16 ft 6 in and 16 ft respectively.
Square's estimated 14 ft depth may matter more in a short room than the lower purchase prices. Recurring costs also differ: Rapsodo lists $199.99–$399.99 a year, while Garmin lists $9.99 a month.

Three years of ownership
What does three-year ownership cost?
The three-year monitor-only total is $699, using Square Golf's listing on October 19, 2026. Square Golf says no subscription is required and includes 1,000 free credits.
That is not a complete simulator budget. The total shown covers the launch monitor without a paid plan, not a screen, projector, hitting surface or room protection.
No required subscription keeps the monitor-only total unchanged; it does not make the rest of the setup free.

Where it goes
Where does it sit for left-handers?
The drawing places the Home Edition beside the ball, but Square Golf does not state placement in words on the official pages checked. Do not read the drawing as a published positioning instruction.
For shared right- and left-handed play, allow swing space on both sides. For a 6′2″ golfer sharing the room, this site's model estimates 13 ft 4 in of width. Confirm the unit's positioning before fixing the hitting area.
Shared-handed rooms need width on both sides of the ball, not just space for the monitor.
