I think the golfer's height is one of the most important factors when setting up your portable golf launch monitor. A tight space can make you feel like you need a flatter swing to avoid hitting the ceiling. Of course, changing your swing just so you can practice on a virtual indoor driving range defeats the whole point of practicing with a golf simulator.
On average, most indoor golf simulators require a clearance space of 9 feet tall minimum to function. This is a great benchmark to start with, but as you'll soon learn, the bare minimum doesn't make for an extremely practical simulator room.
