SIG8 Golf Simulator Studio - Complete Package
The Compact Studio Package for Tight Spaces.
The SIG8 Golf Simulator Studio is the most space-efficient complete package in The Indoor Golf Shop's Signature Series. Measuring just 8'4" wide × 8'4" tall × 5' deep, it fits where larger enclosures can't — apartments, spare bedrooms, narrow garages, and offices — while delivering the same professional-grade construction as its bigger siblings.
The Studio includes everything you need to start swinging: the SIGPRO Premium Impact Screen (winner of MyGolfSpy's independent testing), a powder-coated steel frame with color-coded assembly, landing pad turf, and your choice of hitting mat. Just add your launch monitor and projector.
Designed for golfers with limited square footage who refuse to compromise on quality.
Key Benefits

8'4" × 8'4" footprint fits rooms as narrow as 9' wide — the smallest option in the Signature Series.

Winner of MyGolfSpy's independent head-to-head testing. Superior durability, reduced bounce-back, and quieter operation vs. leading competitors. Rated for 250 MPH ball strikes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the SIG8 Studio include a launch monitor?
No. The Studio package includes the enclosure, screen, landing pad, and hitting mat. You'll need to add your own launch monitor (SkyTrak, Garmin, GolfJoy, Uneekor, etc.) and projector.
Does the SIG8 Studio include a projector?
No. Projector is sold separately or available as an add-on. This gives you flexibility to use your own or upgrade independently.
Why does the image only fill 80% of the screen?
The SIG8 screen has a 1:1 aspect ratio (square), while most projectors output 16:9 or 16:10 images. This results in slight letterboxing (black bars) above and below the image. The SIG10 and SIG12 have 4:3 aspect ratios that fill the full screen.
What ceiling height do I need?
The enclosure is 8'4" tall, so you need at least 8'6" ceilings. For comfortable full swings, 9'+ ceilings are recommended — especially for taller golfers or those with high backswings.
Can I use a 4' × 10' double-sided mat with the SIG8?
No. The SIG8 is not wide enough for the 4'×10' mat. If you need left/right-handed switching with a center-tee mat, consider the SIG10 or SIG12.
How long does assembly take?
Approximately 1-2 hours with two people. The color-coded push-pin system makes setup straightforward.
What launch monitors are compatible?
Any launch monitor works — SkyTrak, Garmin R10/R50, GolfJoy, Mevo+, Foresight GC3, FlightScope, Rapsodo, overhead units like Uneekor, and more.
What simulator software can I use?
Any software compatible with your launch monitor — GSPro, E6 Connect, TGC 2019, Awesome Golf, GolfJoy 4K, and more.
What's the difference between the mat options?
Fairway 5'×5': Realistic feel, accepts real tees, ~1" thick.
SIGPRO 4'×7': Soft foam backing (easy on joints), larger footprint for floor-mounted monitors.
Simulator Flooring: Premium integrated hitting strip + putting green with four cups for short game practice.
Is the SIGPRO screen really better than competitors?
Yes. In head-to-head testing by MyGolfSpy, the SIGPRO Premium Screen outperformed the previous industry leader in durability, bounce-back, noise level, screen sag, and image clarity.

Common questions
Let customers speak for us
I’ve tested multiple overhead launch monitors looking for the best mix of accuracy, reliability, and price. Nothing has come close to the ProTee. It simply works every time. The tracking is fast, consistent, and doesn’t require constant tweaking or recalibration like others I’ve owned. The software is a standout too: intuitive, polished, and far more advanced than I expected at this price point.
For anyone building a home simulator and wanting overhead performance without spending 20k, this is the new standard. ProTee absolutely nailed it.
Have had the ProTeeVX set up for a little over a week and it's been amazing so far. Wasn't totally clear on the dimension requirements and Golf Sim Depot was super helpful through their chat feature and answered all my questions. Bundling this, the protective cover, GSPro AND getting two free swing cams is an incredible deal for a top quality product.
The best company to work with Kyle is very responsive and very easy to work with!!
I had questions about the Protee VX so I called Golf Sim Depot. Kyle answered the phone right away and answered all my questions. I am working on revamping my simulator so he also spent some time talking to me about it and some of the choices I have for the revamp. I bought the Protee VX from Golf Sim Depot and couldn't be happier.
Great company with quick delivery, prompt answers to my questions! Will highly recommend them!
I've been a business owner since I was 12 years old; customer service is the blood that flows for the success of any business. Kyle and his team at Golf Sim Depot have met those standards, from choosing the right sim for my space to following through when an issue arose with my screen. Thank you, Kyle; you have a customer for life.
ProTee vx is the new king of indoor launch monitors. If you want to know every detail of your golf swing then this is the one to purchase..
Couldn't be happier with the ProTee vx.
It is my second Softy. It is worth my health. I am 65. I have hit my share of fat shots. No one had any issue with smacking the club. The last straw was my friend hitting the raised back edge. The first is a little warn in the center - still usable but needs repair gluing the corners and edges after forcing it into a cut out in my mat. This new one fits like a well fitted golf glove. I could not be happier with the product. Regarding Golf Sim Depot: I have had several great experiences with Kylie upgrading from Skytrak to Uneekor EML and then Uneekor's Optix package. This Softy was derived quickly like all the other purchases.
Kyle knows sims. He worked with me and gave me insights that really helped me move my business in the right direction. My launch monitors arrived in less than a week, would highly recommend doing business with Golf Sim Depot.
Needed garmin r50 by certain date. Kyle made it happen even with holiday weekend. Would recommend to anyone looking to purchase.
I received my unit very quickly. Golf sim depot was very flexible and easy to deal with.
They will be the first place I go for any additional needs.
Respond well and fast to questions.
Great customer service. Worked with us very well.
Outstanding customer service and communication. Bought most of my setup here and they got everything to me on time or ahead of schedule.
These guys are great! Called on a Saturday and he went straight to UPS so I had the product on Monday. Very good pricing too. Highly recommend!
