Birdie 10 Golf Simulator Enclosure by Elite Sim Golf
A Full Sim Bay in a Single Garage Stall
At 10 feet wide and 8’2″ tall, the Birdie 10 delivers a real enclosed simulator experience in the tightest residential spaces — single-car garages, compact bonus rooms, or basement builds where width is the primary constraint. The 4K ULTRA triple-layer impact screen is tensioned across a 1-1/4″ powder-coated steel frame that snaps together in under an hour, no tools required.
Birdie 10 — Premium Construction for a 10-Foot Bay
Heavy-Duty Steel Frame
The 1-1/4″ (32 mm) thick-wall powder-coated steel tubing locks into a rigid structure that stays square under repeated ball strikes. The frame is built to outlast the electronics in any sim setup.
4K Triple-Layer Impact Screen
The 4K ULTRA premium impact screen uses a multi-layer construction engineered to absorb and spread ball impact energy across the face, preventing tears and maintaining a flat projection surface session after session.
Velvet-Lined Enclosure
Dark premium velvet lines the interior surfaces, absorbing stray light and reducing ambient reflection. The result is better perceived image contrast without changing projector settings.
Seamless Screen Integration
Velvet enclosure flaps attach via hook-and-loop to create a flush transition from the enclosure walls directly to the screen edge, minimizing light bleed and giving the bay a finished, professional appearance.
Anti-Collision Top Rail Padding
Foam padding runs along the top rail of the frame — protecting both the club and the frame on high backswings. A practical detail that matters in a tight 10-foot bay where overhead clearance is closer.
Fast, Tool-Free Assembly
Numbered poles snap together without any tools. Most two-person builds are complete in 45–60 minutes. The frame also disassembles cleanly if the bay needs to be moved or relocated.
Built for the Golfer with a Tight Space and High Standards
The Single-Stall Garage Golfer
A two-car garage means one stall dedicated to the car and one to the sim. The Birdie 10 is sized precisely for a single-stall garage bay — wide enough for a full swing, compact enough to leave room on both sides for the rest of the garage to function. No major renovation, no structural changes.
The Compact Sim Room Builder
A smaller bonus room, a narrow basement section, or a bedroom conversion where a 12-foot enclosure simply will not fit. The Birdie 10 gives builders working in constrained footprints a real enclosed bay with a 4:3 screen, professional construction, and a 141″ diagonal viewable image — without sacrificing the feel of a proper simulator.
The Value-Focused Buyer
The same steel frame, same velvet lining, and same triple-layer impact screen as the larger enclosures in the lineup — at a lower price point due to the narrower bay. For golfers whose priority is getting a quality enclosed simulator built and operational without stepping up to a wider, more expensive bay they do not need.

Pro Series Upgrade
PRO Series 12x9 — Everything Included Standard
For buyers who want a fully finished premium bay from day one — no stacking add-ons, no sourcing separate components — the PRO Series 12x9 is built to deliver a complete, professional-grade simulator enclosure out of the box.
Premium gray impact screen material, not the standard white found on the Birdie 10, Eagle 12, and Albatross 13. Deeper blacks, better ambient light rejection, and improved visual contrast for serious sim use.
12’ W × 9’ H × 6’ D total footprint with the stand-off built into the frame design. Installs directly against the wall — no additional rear clearance calculation needed.
Frame pipes are included in the box — no sourcing EMT pipe locally or separately. Pick up, assemble, and hit.
True 4:3 viewable area of 138″ W × 103″ H — significantly larger than the Birdie 10’s 112″ × 87″ window and taller than standard-lineup bays at 9’ height.
What’s Included Standard
- PRO Series 12x9 enclosure frame (12’ W × 9’ H × 6’ D)
- High Contrast Gray Triple-Layer impact screen
- EMT Pipe Frame Kit
- RipStop Fabric Surround for total ball containment
- Bungee bottom for screen-to-turf transition
- Heavyweight foam-lined flaps (no upgrade required)
- Blackout sheet to eliminate bottom light bleed
Real Bay. Real Results.
“Was curious how the velvet enclosure would look, but I’m pumped about it. If your goal is a simulator/movie room, then this is the way. Reminds me of a movie theatre and keeps all the ambient light out of the enclosure so you can get away with a lower lumen projector if that’s what your budget allows. Set up was simple and easy. The included pipes for framing is amazing and I can’t believe other companies get away with charging an extra $400–$700 on top of a $2K enclosure. Would recommend 10/10 times.”

Birdie 10 — Common Questions
How much room do I need for the Birdie 10?
The enclosure frame footprint is approximately 10’ wide by 5’ deep, and 8’2″ tall. Plan for additional room in front of the enclosure for the player’s swing, behind the player for the launch monitor, and overhead for projector mounting. A single-car garage bay with a 9’ ceiling or higher is the typical installation environment. Total room depth needed will vary based on projector throw distance and launch monitor placement — the Projector Fitment Tool can help confirm whether the full layout fits the room.
What screen aspect ratio does the Birdie 10 use and why does it matter?
The Birdie 10 uses a 4:3 aspect ratio, which is the format most golf simulation software is designed around. The 4:3 format fills more of the screen with the course view compared to a 16:9 widescreen format when running golf sim software, making it the preferred ratio for a dedicated golf simulator. The viewable image area is approximately 112″ wide by 87″ high (141″ diagonal).
What is included with the Birdie 10?
The Birdie 10 includes the 1-1/4″ powder-coated steel frame, 4K ULTRA premium triple-layer impact screen, velvet-lined enclosure with vinyl exterior, velvet flaps with hook-and-loop attachment, anti-collision padding along the top rail, and mounting hardware. Everything needed to assemble a fully enclosed simulator bay is in the box.
Is a hitting mat included with the Birdie 10?
No. The hitting mat and landing pad are sold separately. This is intentional — hitting mat preferences vary significantly based on playing style, simulator software, and budget. Separating the mat from the enclosure allows selection of the surface that best matches those needs without being locked into a bundled option.
Can the Birdie 10 be used with any launch monitor?
Yes. The Birdie 10 is compatible with any launch monitor — radar-based side monitors, forward-facing camera monitors, and ceiling-mounted overhead monitors all work with the enclosure. The key variable is room depth: some launch monitors require specific distances between the hitting position and the screen, so confirming the total room layout before purchase is recommended.
What projector works with the Birdie 10?
Two projectors are recommended for the Birdie 10. The BenQ AK700ST is the premium option — 4K UHD, 4,000 lumens laser, with dedicated Golf Mode color profiles and motorized Auto Screen Fit. Its short-throw lens and rear ceiling-mount position provide full compatibility with ceiling-mounted overhead launch monitors such as the VTrack. The Optoma GT2400HDR is the best-value option — 1080p, 4,200 lumens, DuraCore laser with a 30,000-hour lifespan. Its 0.496:1 ultra-short throw ratio mounts very close to the screen, so buyers using a ceiling-mounted overhead launch monitor should verify projector placement using the Projector Fitment Tool before purchasing. Projector throw math should always be confirmed with the fitment tool rather than estimated manually.
How long does the Birdie 10 take to assemble?
Estimated assembly time is 45–60 minutes with two people. The frame uses numbered poles that snap together without tools, so no special skills or equipment are needed. Two people are recommended for holding frame sections during assembly and for tensioning the enclosure fabric over the frame.
Can the Birdie 10 be disassembled and moved?
Yes. The snap-together, tool-free design means the Birdie 10 can be fully disassembled, moved, and reassembled in a new location. This makes it practical for seasonal use (garages that need floor space back in summer), rentals, or moves where the installation space will change.
Does the Birdie 10 work for both right- and left-handed golfers?
Yes. The enclosure is symmetrical and imposes no preference for handedness. The 10-foot bay is narrower than the 12-foot Eagle 12, so left-handed and right-handed golfers with wider swings should confirm the lateral clearance fits their setup before purchasing.
Can the Birdie 10 be upgraded to a complete simulator package?
Yes. The SimKit Bundle Builder allows combining the Birdie 10 with a launch monitor, projector, and hitting mat in a single order. Pre-configured bundles built around the Birdie 10 are also available for buyers who want a curated complete setup rather than building from scratch.
What is the difference between the standard enclosures and the PRO Series 12x9?
The Birdie 10, Eagle 12, and Albatross 13 are the standard lineup — they use a white triple-layer impact screen and the accessories (bungee bottom, fabric surround, blackout sheet, foam flaps) are sold separately as upgrades. The PRO Series 12x9 is a separate premium-tier enclosure that includes all of those components standard: a High Contrast Gray triple-layer impact screen, RipStop Fabric Surround, bungee bottom, heavyweight foam-lined flaps, blackout sheet, and an EMT Pipe Frame Kit. The PRO Series is also taller (9’ vs. 8’2″) and deeper (6’ with a built-in 1FT wall stand-off vs. 5’). For buyers who want a complete, fully-accessorized premium bay, the PRO Series delivers that in one purchase at 12’ wide.
