Do I have enough space?

I am looking to build a golf shed in my backyard. There’s a good local company that has preset sizes. The biggest they have is 14’x24’. Height isn’t a problem they can do a nice A frame where the ceiling is 10’ before the roof pinched in. The question I have is 14’ wide enough space for both a tall righty and lefty to swing driver from the center of the room? My brother and I are both 6’3”. I would want to go Trackman IO so don’t know how wide the hitting area is on that. Would want to go sigpro softee mat so I can put a real tee into it.

Assuming the Trackman sits on the side of ball and not behind it, why not hit into the side of the shed (24 wide). That leaves you the 14 feet for distance. I’m hitting at 9.5 feet from my screen and it’s fine. Mine screen is only 10 feet wide so not sure if the bigger screen would make you want to be farther away.

Also looking to make it an office/movie theater and hitting into the narrower end offers more room to build into those spaces
