This is genius. I’ve been watching videos and wracking my brain on how to build a hitting net that’s easy to put up and take down because, my wife isn’t going to want to look at it all the time either. I’m so glad your video came across my feed. Thank you so much for posting this. Have a great life.
Agreed, but unfortunately I didn’t have the distance behind me. I was able to use my home roof eves to get the clearance I needed, but obviously someone 6’ or taller will probably be swiping the top net. I don’t mind being close to the impact zone either…Since I can’t see much of the ball flight/path, it teaches me to keep my head still and down through the swing 👍
That is the most awesome ultimate pandemic/antisocial setup I have seen. Great job! Skytrack is a must because I think driving in a net gives you nothing more than good impact feeling.. the end result/alignment can't be measured. Thanks for sharing
I’m trying to make something easy, affordable, and can be broken down to put in my otherwise useless side yard for my daughter for softball. This is exactly what I needed to see! Thanks man! Good work! 👍🏽
I did something similar in my basement, netting fastened to the ceiling studs with a skytrak best money I've ever spent. If I lived in a more remote area I would have loved to use your idea for outside. Thanks for the video great job.
Ummm...Thanks :) However, I would rather have the bank accounts of those two. If I did, my video would be a tour of my own personal 36 hole course that only I can play (and you too) LOL
Your setup is great! This is exactly what I want to build. Something that fully encloses me, allows me to put up and remove the entire structure somewhat easily, and would allow me to hit off a good quality hitting mat with my Flightscope Mevo+ which is essentially just sitting around useless at the moment. Thanks for making this video!
Get a cloth white projector screen to put on the net and a cheap projector and then you can play a golf game at night. So much better than looking at a monitor.
Good luck with your pooch. We have lived through it for over a decade, but fortunately medication has controlled it pretty well. Nice setup, too, I’d love to have that Skytrac…
@3:32 "3 & a 1/4 inch" Dude, if that's 3 & a 1/4 then you are *HUGE* No but seriously, Thank you for the video. I really appreciate it. I just got a Garmin R10 & want an easy solution that isn't an eye sore.
Thank you! And Nali is doing well with the exception of two knee surgeries this past year. I’d own my own golf course if it wasn’t for the vet bills…but I wouldn’t exchange her for anything 🐾❤️
Mike, you're now 3 years on since you've built your at home practice net (Brilliant idea BTW). A couple of questions. How's it held up? What changes / updates have you made or would have liked to have known in the beginning? Have you come up with a similar solution to deal with the rain in the PNW so you're not limited to practicing in the "summer" season only?
Dang…All very good questions 👍 Everything is as it was the first day that I put it together. One “mistake” I made - I set up my pavers stone area for my swing mat in the middle of the net area. I wish I would have placed it more off-center and to the right side, since I’m right handed. When I first started swinging, my backswing and follow-through was brushing the left side of the net and every once and a while hit one of the supports (annoying and distracting). So, I’ve had to shift the right side of my mat off the paver area. Easy fix would be to add another couple pavers to the right side, but the lack of a solid surface under the hitting area is actually a little more “life-like” since the ground out here is relatively soft. No fixes for the rain, yet, other than I’ve contemplated some sort of tarp cover. However, it just doesn’t rain so much that I can’t get out and use it at least once or twice a week. Thank you!
i found a net myself that is not doubled, but I myself am thinking of getting a 20' x 30' tarp to go over the net it's self, this may also allow me to incorporate an optishot 2 since that would take out a good portion of sunlight, if not I could just get the garmen approach r10 and use the home tee hero software
Thanks :) Solid guess…I was down to around a 10 when I shot this video, but it has snuck up there due to my lack of practice - hovering around a 13 now 😢
Very nice for a practice guy like You! Only one problem as I can see, net are to close to wall of house? Balls com back on you, what do you say? Nice job, Johnny
No issues at all. I have a little more than 3 feet between my net and the house wall. Plus, I have the net just hanging there. So, I think the net’s slack absorbs and slows the ball before it has a chance to impact the house.
I have a golf net and was hitting balls one day. When I finished, I walked back into the house, got some water, and told my wife that if anyone from the subdivision behind us asked her if we lost any golf balls just say no.
Hey Kevin, I tossed those links in there for ya. Unfortunately, the net doesn’t look available, and the mat’s price went up 3x what I paid for it in 2018...Yikes!
Nicely done awesome build. Just got the approval from my wife to build one. Loved the netting I'm not sure if I will use the metal conduit or pvc, leaning towards the metals. Do you to pay yearly fee for Skytrak?
I forgot to add that the first step in building this is (1) Get your wife’s approval 😀 I definitely wouldn’t recommend PVC as the weight from the net will likely be too much, unless you are going to build a more permanent cage. And, yes, I do pay for the SkyTrak subscription ($199/year) for the driving range and a simulator that allows you to play real courses, like; Pebble Beach, Chambers Bay, St Andrews, etc. You can play in virtual tournaments with other players too, but I haven’t ventured into that area yet. Hope the build goes well!
Great design sir! Will make an exactly same one in my backyard. How far between each pole did you set up? What dimension do you recommend so that the net is not too loose or too tight? Thanks in advance!
Thank you…Each net is gonna stretch differently. I would wait until you have the net and stretch it to about 75% of its max length, and measure that length. That’s the number I would use to set your pipes in the mortar at that slight outward angle. Your posts will be the outward angle needed for the remaining 100% of the net’s max stretch. You want it pretty close to it being max stretched out in the end. Hope this helps.
Much appreciated...I have about 3 to 3.5 feet between the net and my wall. Plus, the net is rather heavy with it being a double net on the hitting panel. I will every once in a while graze the wall with a drive.
@@bluerootproperties9409 Thanks already finished...need to add some side netting to protect against the dreaded S -word but hitting foam balls for now with a camera to work on my swing! Thanks
Wife just passed away and I’m thinking of doing something like this on my property but it could stay up permanently…any suggestions on how a full time set up should go…any chance you have links for the netting? Love the idea and it may help my depression
I’m so sorry for your loss…Depending where you live, I’m not sure if you want to put a set up like this outside full-time. Out here in Washington, the rain kind of forces me to pack it up. However, I have considered getting roof over it. The SkyTrak has some issues in direct sunlight on its sensor. So, some shade would be a welcome addition. If I was going to make it permanent, I probably wouldn’t concern myself with the pole in the ground…Probably just think of a design more like a shower curtain, where the net can just hang to the ground. Not sure if that makes any sense…The net I purchased was from Amazon - Dynamax Sports Store. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like Amazon carries it anymore, but I’m sure you can find something similar. Here was the product description on their 10x10x10 net: “This commercial grade netting from Dynamax Sports is made from the durable No.18 Twisted Knotted Nylon netting. It is UV and weather treated to last year round indoors or outdoors. The 3/4" square mesh will stop high impact balls from passing through including those hit by drivers. Each net will be reinforced with a 1/4" rope border with a spring clip at each corner.”
Great setup! Thinking of using some of these ideas, particularly how you cemented the pipes into the ground to hold up the long poles. Do you find that the pipes and poles make any noise or squeaking when you hit balls? Just wondering how the metal-on-metal deals with the impact and whether that would annoy me.
Thanks and happy it inspired some thoughts for you…Now that you mention metal on metal noise, I really don’t hear any or perhaps I’m just not bothered by it (if there is any). There is some space between the poles and the pipe. So, if there was noise that bothered me, I would just jam a tee in the space and get back to playing. You could also try wrapping some thin weather stripping around the bottom of the pole…again, if it was an issue. I think the double net on the impact side really absorbs most of the force and subsequent movement in the poles. Best of luck to you.
@@bluerootproperties9409 Right, I was trying to listen for it in the video but there really wasn’t any noise when you hit, so it must be pretty quiet. Thanks for confirming!
Thank you! The net and mat cost about $325 total (unfortunately that was a while back, and everything is waaaay more expensive). The poles and hardware cost maybe another $50-$75. The SkyTrak unit costs just under $2k, and you have to subscribe to the service each year (about $100-$200 a year depending on the package you want).
Hey man, thanks for the idea! Mu question is: how is the Matzilla golf mat holding up and did you get the one w/ the pad attached? 2 questions I guess lol, if no padding, does it slide or bunch up? TY
I actually bought an “All Turf Mats” off of Amazon. It’s held up really well. Thick pad underneath and the “grass” is dense and strong enough to hold up a tee. The pad itself is pretty darn heavy, and I’ve never had it slip underneath me (but part of that might be due to the fact I have rough concrete pavers underneath it). I never have any concerns about hitting down into it, as the pad underneath is rather substantial.
Thank you! Since I only have it up when I’m I using it, I haven’t really been out in the elements or wind tunnel tested it yet :) However, I’ve been out there on some breezy days, and I have no complaints.
Thank you! I put the links to the items I purchased in the video description. The dimensions will vary given the type and size of net you end up with. So, buy the net first, and work from there. Good luck!
The reason why I went with this monitor was because of its ability and accuracy in measuring spin, shanks, hooks, slices, etc…and it was cheap by comparison to all the other bells and whistles it came with. The only complaint I have with it is - direct sunlight messes with its ability to pick up the ball. I do need to find a way to keep the hitting area and the unit’s “eyes” under shade.
Great video. Just bought a net and this video is my blueprint. Question, how much space is between the back of the net (where you hit into) and your house? Does the net fully absorb the impact of the golf ball without kicking back into the house? I’m building it on the side of my house and it will be facing my fence. So curious how much space I need in between the two so the golf ball doesn’t bounce off my fence and ricochets back.
I have about 3 to 3.5 feet between the net and my house. The net on the side that I hit came with a double net. So, it is rather heavy and stops about 95% of my shots from hitting the house. The other 5% of drives barely grazes the wall. Another half a foot clearance, and there wouldn't be any worries. If you have a single net you are hitting into, I would definitely put up another hitting panel, tarp, or something to beef it up.
I would probably only add the one on the left corner. I wouldn’t want to add a pole in the middle of the impact area, as I’d be a little nervous of a ricochet should I actually hit one straight 🤣. So, in total, I would have 6 pipes - 3 on each side. However, If I was getting too much sag in the middle on my impact side, I would try to figure out how to add an extension arm on another pole to allow me to hold up the middle without adding the hazard of a ricochet…Hope that makes sense 👍
Already put the link in the description of the video…Unfortunately it doesn’t look like Amazon carries it anymore, but at least you can get the general specs from it.
3 years later and still one of the best golf enclosures! Nice!
Many many many thanks! 👍❤️

I’m so glad your video came across my feed. Thank you so much for posting this. Have a great life.
Neato. I would set the tee pad further back so you have plenty of overhead clearance and you get a better look at the ball placement.
Agreed, but unfortunately I didn’t have the distance behind me. I was able to use my home roof eves to get the clearance I needed, but obviously someone 6’ or taller will probably be swiping the top net. I don’t mind being close to the impact zone either…Since I can’t see much of the ball flight/path, it teaches me to keep my head still and down through the swing 👍
After I crushed a 3 iron off the toe, right past my net down towards the road below. I think this is my winter project.
I had a single panel net, and I did the exact same thing with a 4 iron. Hence, I now have this 😂
That is the most awesome ultimate pandemic/antisocial setup I have seen. Great job! Skytrack is a must because I think driving in a net gives you nothing more than good impact feeling.. the end result/alignment can't be measured. Thanks for sharing
LOL…Much appreciated! You are correct, without the launch monitor, it would be tough to get any feedback on my swing.
I'd be happy to hit the ball consistently I don't care where it goes 😂
You missed the part about the monitor??
I’m trying to make something easy, affordable, and can be broken down to put in my otherwise useless side yard for my daughter for softball. This is exactly what I needed to see!
Thanks man! Good work! 👍🏽

Thank you very much! Hope you find some ways to improve on it when you go to build yours 👍
You made that so perfect with burried pole supports and hooks. Nice job

Give it a go! Definitely get that tarp or double up your net on your impact area…Have fun!
Agree that driving to a range and paying sucks, but the experience and looking at the vast field is worth the pay. Also networking
Staring at the wall of my house isn't a replacement for a nice field of green grass and blue skies, I agree...But at least my puppies come visit me :)

How good is that launch monitor at picking up on miss hits, does it detect if you shanked, hooked, or sliced the ball?
The reason why I went with this monitor was because of its ability and accuracy in measuring spin, shanks, hooks, slices, etc…and it was cheap by comparison to all the other bells and whistles it came with. The only complaint I have with it is - direct sunlight messes with its ability to pick up the ball. I do need to find a way to keep the hitting area and the unit’s “eyes” under shade.
Great video. Just bought a net and this video is my blueprint. Question, how much space is between the back of the net (where you hit into) and your house? Does the net fully absorb the impact of the golf ball without kicking back into the house? I’m building it on the side of my house and it will be facing my fence. So curious how much space I need in between the two so the golf ball doesn’t bounce off my fence and ricochets back.
I have about 3 to 3.5 feet between the net and my house. The net on the side that I hit came with a double net. So, it is rather heavy and stops about 95% of my shots from hitting the house. The other 5% of drives barely grazes the wall. Another half a foot clearance, and there wouldn't be any worries. If you have a single net you are hitting into, I would definitely put up another hitting panel, tarp, or something to beef it up.
you are awesome, but not so sure my girl will think that when i set it somthine simulere up in our small garden :D thank you for this amasing video
Naaaa...I’m sure she will love it LOL. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Somthine Simulere was my favourite European Tour player.
awesome job brotha.
Much appreciated!
If you did not use your house as support in the impact area, how many additional pipes would you use?
I would probably only add the one on the left corner. I wouldn’t want to add a pole in the middle of the impact area, as I’d be a little nervous of a ricochet should I actually hit one straight 🤣. So, in total, I would have 6 pipes - 3 on each side. However, If I was getting too much sag in the middle on my impact side, I would try to figure out how to add an extension arm on another pole to allow me to hold up the middle without adding the hazard of a ricochet…Hope that makes sense 👍
Can you put the link to the net you bought on Amazon?
Already put the link in the description of the video…Unfortunately it doesn’t look like Amazon carries it anymore, but at least you can get the general specs from it.
Don't think that thing would ever be coming down, ha. I'm the kind of guy who would be out there at 11 PM honing my swing.
LOL...I know what you mean. I say I’m only going to be out there for an hour...3-4 hours later, I’m still searching for that perfect swing to end on.
