2. Safety Information

Please read and understand all safety instructions before using the GoSports Golf Simulator Turf. Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury or damage to the product or surrounding property.

• Ensure the turf is laid on a flat, stable surface to prevent tripping hazards.
• Always use appropriate golf equipment and follow safe swinging practices.
• Maintain a clear area around the turf to avoid striking objects or individuals.
• Keep children and pets away from the practice area during use.
• Do not use the turf if it is damaged or shows signs of excessive wear.

3. Package Contents

Verify that all components are present upon unpacking:

• GoSports Golf Simulator Turf (10x6 ft, 12x6 ft, or 15x6 ft, depending on model purchased)
• Heavy-Duty Double-Sided Carpet Tape

4. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to properly set up your GoSports Golf Simulator Turf:

1. Prepare the Surface: Ensure the installation area is clean, dry, and free of debris. The turf can be installed on hard surfaces such as concrete, wood flooring, or low-pile carpet.
2. Unroll the Turf: Carefully unroll the golf turf in the desired location. Allow it to lay flat for several hours, or overnight, to minimize any curling from packaging.
3. Positioning: Place the turf underneath your golf simulator enclosure or hitting net. The turf is available in various widths (10 ft, 12 ft, or 15 ft) and a consistent depth of 6 ft to match common simulator setups. Multiple sections can be purchased and connected for larger areas.

4. Secure with Carpet Tape: Use the included heavy-duty double-sided carpet tape to secure the turf onto hard surfaces. Apply the tape along the edges and seams of the turf to prevent movement. For optimal adhesion, ensure the surface is clean before applying tape.

5. Cable Routing (Optional): If necessary, small holes can be carefully cut into the turf to route cables underneath for projectors, sensors, or hitting monitors. Exercise caution to avoid damaging the turf beyond the required cut.

5. Operation

The GoSports Golf Simulator Turf is designed for consistent and realistic golf practice:

• Hitting Surface: The 15mm elite turf is constructed to feel and look like real grass. You can hit golf balls directly off the turf.
• Using a Hitting Mat: For prolonged life of the turf, especially in high-impact areas, it is recommended to use a separate hitting mat (sold separately) on top of the simulator turf.
• Ball Dampening: The turf helps to dampen golf balls as they rebound from impact, providing smoother, more realistic practice and minimizing ricochets on hard surfaces.

6. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your GoSports Golf Simulator Turf:

• Cleaning: Regularly vacuum or sweep the turf to remove loose debris, dirt, and golf ball residue. For deeper cleaning, a mild soap and water solution can be used with a soft brush, followed by rinsing and air drying.
• Spot Cleaning: Address spills or stains promptly with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
• Storage: If storing the turf, roll it tightly and keep it in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.

7. Troubleshooting

Below are common issues and potential solutions:

• Turf Not Lying Flat: If the turf retains curls from packaging, allow more time for it to relax. Placing heavy, flat objects on the affected areas overnight can help.
• Tape Not Adhering: Ensure the floor surface is completely clean and dry before applying the carpet tape. For best results, press firmly on the tape after application.
• Excessive Wear in Hitting Area: This is normal with frequent use. Consider placing a separate, smaller hitting mat (sold separately) over the primary impact zone to protect the main turf and extend its life.
