    Thanks for doing that Yrrdead81 . All I could hear was the club impact. Thats what Im after.

      Yeah the two Adj files you can hear the thump of the ball on the net, it's not bad but I have a single story not sure how it would be if you had a room above. I'm on a graveyard schedule so I'll hit balls at 3 in the morning without waking anyone up....so far anyway .

      Previously I had one of the semi movable rukket popup net, which was much quieter but the netting was "softer". That is the only comparison I can personally make. Honestly the loudest part when you are hitting hybrids and woods is the club impact. Which is loud to me but higher frequency so it doesn't "travel". The lower frequency thud of ball into net travels more.

        My setup is in my basement so the sound really echoes. I hit mostly irons. The club strike is loud but the canvas dropcloth impact is what is loudest upstairs

        Yrrdead81 I got a quote from them for a 5x10 piece of delta impact panel. I can get an unfinished piece for 50 bucks, or a finished piece with grommets and all for 100. I was thinking of getting the unfinished piece and adding my own grommets. Not sure if the unfinished edges would be a big problem.

        What is your opinion on the noise from irons on your screen? What is louder the screen or the club strike? Thanks for the help.

      I think it is going to depend on your ball speed and how tight you have it set up. For me irons aren't very loud at all.

        I would just have it hanging from the top. Looks like a good option for now. Dont want to mess with replacing a net constantly
    Working...
