First let me begin by saying thank you to the members of this forum for answering questions and for posting so much information that helped me start my build. The goal of my first phase was to get an operational practice area in my basement before winter comes. And here in Ohio...winter is coming.
To save time and hassle, I worked with Cory at Par2Pro to design my custom cage and netting. Everything came together flawlessly. I also went with the Truestrike hitting mat. My “finishing touch” was to add some cheap indoor/outdoor carpet to help contain golf balls from rolling all over the basement. Going to try to add a pic below.
For the launch monitor, I chose the Flightscope Xi Tour. I wanted the ball and club data, the flexibility of home or range practice, and I liked having the unit behind the shot so I don’t have to worry as much about it taking a a shot from one of my kids. I have been functional for a couple days now and it’s been great. The setup was easy, and the shot data has been similar to what I see in real life.
Phase two, is going to be getting the shots projected on a hitting screen (thank you DB). Still shopping for the projector. The final phase may be to look at adding sim option (without putting of course). Sim putting doesn’t do it for me, so I’m ok with that.
Anyways, wanted to say thank you.
