This Net is the first serious one ive bought and works wonderful for my DiY simulator. Strong enough to have taken hundreds of shots and not showing any signs of slowing down

SPG-7 Golf Practice Net - Standard Edition

Set-up took ten minutes, mostly because I was re-reading the instructions and convinced I’d missed something. “Couldn’t be this easy…” Well, it is. The entire net and hoop structure unfolded immediately and after threading the stiffing rod through the top overhang I was ready to position the mat and start hitting. The opening for the 7 foot is wide enough such that I’ve only missed one ball after two months — never bothered installing the optional side nets; although they might be helpful should I move the mat back another six feet. The quality of the backstop and ball return is exceptional — sturdy, durable and functional. I’m using it indoors and find that 8’ 9” is sufficient ceiling for a full swing with every club, although driver is cutting it close.

Full disclosure: I’ve not attempted to take it down yet so can’t comment on how well that process works.

Thought it would be appropriate to write a review on the 1st year anniversary of buying my Spornia practice net. At this point in time I have driven over 30,000 golf balls at the net using my sim set up, so it has had extremely good personal use. Located in my garage, where it is not exposed to the sun or inclement weather, it is set up for use full time so not packed or folded away.

After all this use it still looks like new. I have two spots at the top of the net where the nylon weave has broken off the frame structure (see picture), i believe this is from lofted shots repetitively striking roughly the same spot. The curtain that hangs within the net is showing moderate wear on the logo, but the material itself still looks like new (see picture).

The feature which pushes the balls to the front of the net, effectively a sloped floor created by a bottom net, works terrific. Retrieving balls from the net is a breeze. I have side netting to catch errant shots, as well as an overhead net to prevent lofted shots from finding their way to the drywall, but the Spornia net is wide and tall enough to catch all but those few total mishits. The arched top piece works great at catching chip shots. My net is 10 feet from the the mat I hit from (tee to hanging curtain).

Overall, I give this product a full 5 star review. I will revisit again in another years time.

Very easy and quick set-up/ tear down in 5 minutes or less. Performs just as the company claims. Very pleased with the net.
