When you're comparing golf simulator rental companies, the price quote alone doesn't tell the whole story. What's actually in the package? What do you need to provide yourself? Will someone be there to run the thing, or are you on your own?

We get these questions a lot. So here's the full, honest breakdown of everything you get when you book a Bomb Bays Golf rental with no surprises and no fine print.

The Short Answer: Everything You Need to Play

When Bomb Bays shows up at your event, your guests don't need to bring a single thing. We handle the full experience from arrival to teardown.

Delivery and Professional Setup

We load up, drive to your location, and build the entire simulator experience on-site. That includes the screen, enclosure frame, launch monitor, projector, hitting mat, and all supporting equipment. Setup takes about 45–60 minutes and we arrive early so everything is ready before your first guest walks in.

GSPro Simulator Software

We run GSPro, one of the most respected golf simulation platforms available. Your guests can play over 100 iconic courses including Pebble Beach, St. Andrews, Augusta National, Pinehurst No. 2, and more. Beyond just playing a round, GSPro supports driving range mode, closest-to-the-pin challenges, longest drive competitions, and multiplayer head-to-head formats. We set up whichever mode works best for your event.

High-Accuracy Launch Monitor

This is the brain of the setup. Our launch monitor tracks the full data picture on every shot: ball speed, carry distance, launch angle, spin rate, and club path. It's the same technology used by PGA Tour players in practice and it's what makes the simulator feel real rather than like a video game.

Real Golf Clubs and Balls

We bring everything your guests need to play, including a full set of right-handed clubs, left-handed options, and real golf balls. Guests don't need to own clubs or bring anything. We've also got options for kids if you've got a mixed-age group.

On-Site Support Throughout Your Event

One of us stays for the duration of your rental. We handle the tech, explain how to use the simulator to each new group of guests, troubleshoot anything that comes up, and keep the experience moving. Think of it as having a dedicated event host who happens to know a lot about golf.

This is where Bomb Bays is different from a drop-and-leave rental. We stay. We're part of your event team. Your guests always have someone to answer questions and keep the fun going.

Professional Breakdown and Teardown

When your event wraps, we disassemble everything, pack it up, and get out of your way. You don't touch a thing. Your venue or home is left exactly as we found it.

What You Don't Need to Provide

• No golf clubs or equipment to source
• No technical knowledge required, we explain everything to each guest
• No setup or teardown labor on your end
• No separate projector or screen rental
• No software licensing or login credentials to manage

The only thing you need is a space that meets our size requirements (12' wide x 15' deep x 9' tall) and access to a standard 110V outlet.

Optional Add-Ons

The base package covers everything most events need. If you want to go further, a few upgrades are available:

• Custom Branding: Add your company logo, event name, or sponsor graphics to the simulator screen and enclosure. Great for corporate events, brand activations, and tournaments.
• Competition Formats: We can run organized longest drive or closest-to-the-pin competitions with a tracked leaderboard, perfect for keeping a large group engaged throughout the event.
• Multiple Bays: Need more throughput for a large guest list? We can discuss multi-simulator setups for bigger events. Ask us about availability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I bring my own clubs?

Absolutely. If you or your guests have preferred clubs, bring them. Our launch monitor works with any standard golf club. We just ask that guests use real golf balls, not foam ones.

What courses are available on GSPro?

Over 100 courses including Pebble Beach, Augusta National, St. Andrews, Pinehurst No. 2, TPC Sawgrass, and many more. We can pull up the full list when you book if you have a specific course in mind.

How many people can play at one time?

The simulator supports multiplayer, typically 2–4 players in an active round. For larger groups, we recommend a competition format like longest drive so more guests rotate through quickly and stay engaged.

What happens if something breaks during our event?

We're on-site the entire time. If anything comes up with the equipment, we handle it immediately. Our rigs are professionally maintained before every event.
