This starts with a passion for golf as a child i couldnt afford.... carried clubs at the local golf club at 11 just to get my hands on a set of clubs and a place to swing... fast forward 25+ years and long are the days i was swinging every day (and that 14 handicap i thought was bad at the time)...

I picked up the 8ft for fear I needed the extra room... within weeks, being able to swing every day... my swing and game has improved dramatically. Admittedly the 8ft is large, but i can easily single person set up and tear down within 5 minutes of start. I imagine if your solo practicing like me, maybe the 7 is more manageable... as a laborer and designer, I have some practice with missing that 2nd person and still I would say this is very manageable if you understand the mechanics. That's where the recommended second come in very helpful.

Still id recommend to anyone and I plan on giving this set out as company gifts to our staff. Can we get them branded with the company logo?

TLDR: buy this if you have the space for it. Its fabulous.

My original review that is posted had me giving the company a 3 star rating due to reaching out to customer support and never receiving a response. Their net and golf mat were all great products but I never received help with a tracking number hence the rating. Spornia has since reached out and remedied the issues I was initially having. For the inconvenience, they also are sending complimentary sand bags for my nets. I really appreciate the effort and support from their company. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a a net and mat

The mat is great. Feels real and it's easy on the joints. I've had many friends try it out and they rave how much better it feels. One even bought one on the spot. The SPG7 is even better. It's so easy to put up and down and takes just a few minutes to do so. For it's size it's easily transported if needed. The ball rolls right back to you when practicing too. I can't imagine a better net out there.

I’m using this as a practice setup in my garage. The mat has been great, I’ve hit a couple thousand balls and haven’t had any issues with mat fatigue. I chose the SPG-8 net, and it has done a great job catching all my errant shots. My only issue with the net is it constantly leans over to the side. There’s a video from spornia about fixing it by pushing in on the sides. This fix works for a handful of shots and then the net begins leaning over again pretty quickly.

This has been the best practice mat I have ever used. The mat is soft under the "grass" and allows for some great short and long iron practice.
I have also driven full force into the net with my driver (using my own regular tees) and the net and assembly deflects the energy from the ball nicely and then returns the balls to the front lip for easy ball collection. The small extra target is great for practicing with friends and playing "corn hole" or "horse shoes" but with golf and to help with the short iron game. It took some practice to fold down this assembly but it does fold down great when you get used to it. Taking it out and erecting it is a breeze.
