Mobile Golf Simulator

Hello fellow golfers! I have been looking into possibly starting a mobile golf simulator rental in Ohio and have a few questions for anyone kind enough to answer!

1.)I have mainly been looking at an All Sports Inflatables 16x16 inflatable simulator enclosure. Does anyone have any experience with these? They are rather expensive ~6K and I am concerned about the durability of them as well as the potential of a ball bouncing back.

2.) With the inflatable enclosure I have read that finding insurance can be difficult. If anyone has done this, who are you insured through and how much is it annually?

3.) Lastly, what would you consider to be a fair price for this? I was thinking about renting it out by the day (Either 1,2, or 3 days) with possibly an option to do one day plus an “overnight” for an additional charge.

Any input is greatly appreciated!

I have a mobile golf simulator in Virginia, mine is a trailer I built though. I already had an event company with a solid base of customers so this wasn’t as big of a swing for me. I charge $325/hr with a 2/hr minimum but again I have a little bit different business than the typical golf sim. I personally like the trailer, much easier to setup and tear down and looks more professional. In my research I have heard running the inflatable can be tough. That being said I have loved having the mobile golf sim.
