Abstract

The present invention provides a golf simulator (80) comprising a launch area (81) facing a screen (82) at which the ball is driven and which is used to display an image (86) of part of a golf course. Sensor devices (83) detect at least one of: the impact of a golf ball on the screen (82), the flight of the ball towards the screen (82), and the trajectory of the golf club head during the golf club swing. The launch area is provided by a playing surface panel of a tiltable tee apparatus (81). At least one displacement device (95, 96) for tilting the playing surface panel (81) so as to provide a desired slope angle α and slope direction β relative to a golf driving direction. A computer apparatus (84) is operatively connected to the sensor devices (83) and to the displacement device (95, 96), and programmed so as to control display of part of a golf course on the screen (82).
