Home simulator setup
Net Return Home setup build
A practice setup built around the Net Return Home Series net, which returns the ball to you automatically. Add a launch monitor and an optional screen for simulator golf.
Our score 91/100
The 30-second verdict
A durable, quick-to-use net setup for practice. It is ideal if you want to hit balls without a full enclosure, and you can add a simulator screen later.
Buy it if
- You want to practice often with little set-up
- You do not have room for a full enclosure
- You want to add simulator golf later
Look elsewhere if
- You want a large projected picture now (see the SkyTrak studio)
- Your room is under 2.7 m wide
- You want the lowest possible cost
