No, it's not true at all... I don't have that and it's fine. I hit into a net 6 feet in front of me and then probably only need a few feet behind me. 14 feet is plenty.
There are two key distances in length- how much room you need behind the ball for back swing, that will depend on height and your swing - and your ball speed and damping of the rebound. I have 7 feet behind and 7 feet in front and its very tight (I’m 6’5” tall). The ball does rebound back and end up behind me almost all the time when i hit driver. Its doable but takes some getting used to. You also need space behind the screen to prevent the ball from impacting the wall - i have a foot behind the wall.
I was very limited in width so my screen is 10 x 10 so I have a 1/1 ratio. That is suboptimal in my opinion, but that’s the space I had. I’ve got a Ben Q projector, not sure what model and I’m not home to check for several days (sorry).
Thanks for having me on to hang out with Nick and talk launch monitors!
What is the best one to use at an outdoor range? I don't have a place to hit inside so I'm only using it at an actual driving range.
Lov’n my ST+
So ST+ is measuring the clubhead speed with radar, but the path and face angle are calculated. Did i understand that right?
That is correct.
Does sky track + display dynamic loft?
SKYTRAK+ does show the ball launch angle
@@GOLFTECLessonsFittings you realize that ball launch angle is not the same as dynamic loft?
I wanted to set up a SkyTrak+ in my house but was told I needed at least 17 ft of depth and I only had 14 ft. Is this true?

I am only 5'8 so I should b more than good...lol. 2 more questions. What projector do u use and what ratio setting do u hav it on?
