Welcome to VirtualGolfMansion
Kenny Nyhus Fadil is the publisher behind virtualgolfmansion.com and a lifelong polymath who builds the things he’s curious about. In Sweden the golf season is short and the winters are honest, so he engineered the off-season: a home simulator room built by his own hands — enclosure framed, projector aligned, launch monitors compared against the same swings. VirtualGolfMansion is part of a network of niche sites Kenny publishes openly. He writes about golf sims the way a builder writes — room first, data honesty second, and clear about which upgrades sharpen your practice and which just decorate the man cave.
What We Cover
- Room Planning – Ceiling, width, and depth minimums by club and golfer height, written from a tape measure, not a brochure
- Launch Monitors – Radar vs photometric trade-offs, same-session data comparisons, and what each price tier actually buys you in numbers you can trust
- Enclosures & Screens – DIY frame vs kit, impact screen materials, bounce-back safety, and the wear lessons from a screen that gets hit all winter
- Projection & PC – Short-throw projector selection and alignment, projector-vs-TV logic, and GPU-tier guidance from real frame-rate testing
- Mats & Software – Mat feel and lie honesty, GSPro vs E6 Connect, and winter practice that actually transfers to the course
Our Approach
Tested, not hyped. Launch monitors here are reviewed by hitting the same session through competing units and publishing where the numbers diverge — the method marketing pages can’t survive. The site has a standing rule nobody selling monitors will tell you: the room budget — space, screen, mat — buys more practice value than the next monitor tier. Build documentation keeps the mistakes in, because the mistakes are where the reader’s money gets saved. What you will not find here is showroom glamour, accuracy claims quoted from marketing pages as fact, or tour-level promises about a garage.
About the Author
Kenny Nyhus Fadil has built and rebuilt his sim space through every tier — a Garmin R10 known to its edges, a SkyTrak+-class photometric as the data workhorse, a DIY-framed enclosure, and a projector fought into alignment by hand. He plays outdoor summers and sims all winter; the data has a real swing behind it.
