Charles McQuain owns and edits SimCosts. He researches home golf simulator equipment from manufacturer documents, retailer listings and published third-party material, then does the cost arithmetic and states what it leaves out.

Pages on SimCosts are research-based unless a page says otherwise. Charles does not present research as hands-on testing.
