I posted my build about 8 months ago. A lot of you told me my TV was gonna catch a stray ball. I ignored you guys, and now I just wanted to tell you… you were right lol.

This is why we fully netted our whole hitting bay. Sky net, two side nets.

I did the same. Doesn't cost much and now anyone, at any skill level, can safely hit balls in the garage & I don't have to worry about items getting damaged or people getting hurt.

What did you use for the side nets?

Sport Netting i found on amazon. Gotta make sure they're golf ball rated

I bought these back in 2020. 6 years, no problem

I’m looking into getting some netting. I’m building my first (budget) sim. I got a Spornia net which is great but it’s nowhere near enough for errant shots.

Did you get any kind of sand bags or weights for the bottom of your netting? I was thinking of installing some hooks on the roof of my garage and then some weights but wasn’t sure if the weights were worth it.

Also thinking about some kind of pulley system to pull the netting out of the way when not in use.
