Why Choose the Optoma X309ST for Your Golf Simulator?

The Optoma X309ST stands out as the ideal golf simulator projector for UK homes where space is at a premium. Its revolutionary short throw design means you can achieve a massive 100″ screen from just 1.1 meters away, eliminating shadows during your swing while maintaining crystal-clear image quality.

3700 Lumens Brightness

Exceptional brightness performs brilliantly in any lighting condition, from dark basements to sunlit conservatories.

0.617:1 Short Throw

Create massive screens in minimal space. Perfect for UK homes where every metre counts.

15,000 Hour Lamp Life

Over 6 years of daily practice with minimal maintenance. Outstanding value for serious golfers.

Zero Input Lag

XGA resolution optimised for real-time ball tracking without the processing delays of 4K.

Unmatched Performance for Golf Simulation

Brightness That Outshines the Competition

At 3700 lumens, this projector delivers 23% more brightness than the popular BenQ TH671ST. Whether you’re practicing in a converted garage, garden room, or dedicated golf simulator cabin, the X309ST maintains vivid course visuals even with windows or overhead lighting – essential for those early morning or late evening practice sessions.

Short Throw Technology Designed for Golfers

The 0.617:1 throw ratio is specifically advantageous for golf simulators. Mount it above and behind your hitting position to project large, shadow-free images while keeping the projector safely out of your swing path. This setup works seamlessly with popular simulator software including:

✓
E6 Connect Golf Software

✓
TGC 2019 & SGT

✓
GSPro Golf Simulation

✓
Creative Golf 3D

Professional XGA Resolution – The Sweet Spot

While 4K projectors exist, XGA (1024×768) remains the optimal choice for golf simulation. It delivers sharp ball flight tracking and course detail without the excessive processing demands that can introduce lag – crucial for real-time shot feedback. The X309ST’s advanced DLP technology ensures accurate colour reproduction of fairways, greens, and hazards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Optoma X309ST bright enough for my garage golf simulator?

Absolutely! At 3700 lumens, it’s brighter than 90% of home golf simulator projectors. This brightness level works excellently even in garages with windows or fluorescent lighting. For reference, most golf simulator facilities use projectors between 3000-4000 lumens.

What screen size can I achieve in my golf simulator space?

The ultra-short throw ratio allows for impressive screen sizes in compact UK spaces:

100″ diagonal from just 1.1 meters
120″ diagonal from 1.3 meters
150″ diagonal from 1.6 meters
180″ diagonal from 2.0 meters

How does this compare to the BenQ TH671ST for golf?

The Optoma X309ST offers superior brightness (3700 vs 3000 lumens), better contrast (25,000:1 vs 10,000:1), and 50% longer lamp life. While the BenQ has 1080p resolution, the X309ST’s extra brightness and lower input lag (16ms vs 33ms) make it superior for golf simulation where real-time ball tracking matters more than resolution.

Will this work with my SkyTrak/Mevo+/GC3 launch monitor?

Yes! The X309ST is fully compatible with ALL major launch monitors including SkyTrak, Mevo+, GC3, GCQuad, Uneekor QED/EYE XO, FlightScope, and TrackMan. Simply connect via HDMI for plug-and-play setup. The low input lag ensures perfect synchronisation with your shot data.

Can I ceiling mount this projector?

Yes, the X309ST is designed for ceiling mounting and includes ±40° keystone correction for perfect alignment. The short throw design means you can mount it close to the screen, keeping it well clear of your swing path. We recommend professional installation for optimal positioning.

What’s the actual running cost over 5 years?

Extremely economical! With 15,000-hour lamp life, most users won’t need a replacement for 5+ years. Even practicing 4 hours daily, you’d get over 10 years from one lamp. Replacement lamps cost £120-150, making the X309ST one of the most cost-effective golf simulator projectors available.
