Where to buy a golf simulator in Canada
Updated October 17, 2026 · 6 min read · Prices in Canadian dollars
You can buy a home golf simulator in Canada from three kinds of sellers: big golf retailers (for launch monitors and nets), specialist simulator dealers who sell complete packages and install them, and US online stores that ship across the border.
For anything beyond a portable launch monitor, a Canadian specialist is usually the safest choice: the price includes duty and shipping, warranty repairs stay in Canada, and someone will come and calibrate the system in your room.
Your options
| Seller | Good for | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|
| Golf retailers (Golf Town, Costco and others) | Portable launch monitors, nets, mats; easy returns | Limited choice of enclosures and premium units; no installation |
| Canadian simulator specialists | Complete packages, room design, installation, calibration | Package prices vary a lot; compare like for like |
| US online stores | Sometimes lower sticker prices and more choice | Duty, brokerage, GST/HST at the door; warranty service across the border |
| Used (Kijiji, Marketplace) | Big savings on launch monitors and screens | Check the subscription can transfer to you; test it in person |
Questions to ask a dealer before you pay
- Is the price in Canadian dollars, and does it include shipping, duty and installation?
- Who handles warranty repairs, and where does the unit go for service?
- Which simulator software is included, and what are the yearly fees after the first year?
- Will you visit or review photos and measurements of my room before I order?
- Can the setup be used by left- and right-handed players without moving the launch monitor?
- How long is delivery and installation in winter, when demand peaks?
When to buy
Demand in Canada peaks from October to January as golf courses close. Dealers are busiest then and installation slots fill up; spring and summer are when you are most likely to find a sale or a used unit.
Questions people ask
+Is it cheaper to buy a golf simulator in the US?
The sticker price often is, but after the exchange rate, duty (depending on country of manufacture), brokerage and GST/HST the gap usually narrows or disappears, and warranty service becomes harder.
+Do Canadian dealers install golf simulators?
Most specialists do, either with their own installers or local contractors. Installation typically adds $1,000 to $5,000 depending on framing, projector mounting and wiring.
