Flat screens are the traditional choice for golf simulators, providing a straightforward setup and reliable performance. They are typically more cost-effective and easier to install, making them a popular option for many enthusiasts. However, flat screens may offer a less immersive experience compared to their curved counterparts. 

Advantages of Flat Golf Screens

• Cost-Effective: Flat screens are generally more affordable than curved screens, making them a budget-friendly choice for most golfers.
• Space-Saving: They take up less space since they can be mounted flush against a wall, making them ideal for smaller rooms.
• Retractable Flat Screen Options: Flat golf screens have options for retractability to accommodate flex-spaces. The Vanish Series is a great fully retractable golf sim model.
• Easier Installation: Flat screens are simpler to install, with fewer structural adjustments required compared to curved screens.
• Single Projector Use: Unlike curved screens that may require multiple projectors for seamless visuals, flat screens work efficiently with a single projector.
• Accurate Image Projection: Projectors are typically designed for flat surfaces, resulting in sharp and accurate visuals without distortion.
• Versatile Setup Options: Flat screens are suitable for multi-purpose spaces where the simulator setup might need to be temporary or shared with other activities. The Vanish Series and Parlour Series enclosures allow for multi-sport functionality by combining a SportScreen in their design to shoot pucks, pitch baseball, toss lacrosse shots or fire soccer balls.
• Lower Maintenance: With fewer complex components, flat screens generally require less upkeep over time.

These advantages make flat screens an excellent choice for golfers seeking a practical and immersive experience without the added expense and complexity of curved screens.
