Inflatable golf sim enclosure

How are the screens holding up on these? Do you need to upgrade to a better screen afterwards?

I’m looking at one through Guangzhou Planet Inflatables Ltd. on Alibaba.

The reviews said it was great, but the screens break quickly.

I have the mat sitting on top of the indoor padded turf. I use gorilla grip carpet tape to keep it from moving. I do not have a cut out for the hitting mat. I padded carpet has about a 3/8 inch wool-like padding under it.

Did you end up inserting your hitting mat into the turf? Also what does the underside of the turf look like? Is it course and require a pad to stop from scratching the flooring underneath it?

Propane was more of a pain. This kerosene heater does great, the only downside is that it's kerosene and needs to be moved. I tried the Mr. Buddy and it didn't put out anywhere near enough heat. So I use what I bought which puts out significantly more heat.

It's not nearly as loud as it looks, but you wouldn't want it on the whole time. Even though it has a thermostat on it, if you keep part of it outside the tent, the thermostat won't be accurate. It gets crazy hot quickly. That being said, I would probably prefer a permanent heater solution but all the electric heaters blow my circuits. If anyone has a solution, I'd be interested in hearing about that (short of expensive electrical work).

WOW! That looks pretty crazy! Is it quiet?

[Noob20]

Most of these electric heaters trip the circuit when they're running.  I ended up getting this:  https://www.homedepot.com/p/Dyna-Glo...135H/202816131 I run it for less than 5 minutes and it stays warm enough for about 8-9 holes. Reheat after that and it's good for another 8-9. Love it.

A plug in heater would be easier and less hassle, but I can't solve the power overload situation without rewiring that circuit.

Just set up my directed heater and it works really well!

Maybe a lightweight tarp-like cover?

So I bought a Yolloy tent, and I love it. The biggest problem I have is staying warm. I played tonight and it was 28F out. I was freezing, the heater I bought was no help. The heater is a 9000BTU propane heater. When you have a tent that has a 10' ceiling and roughly 450 square feet, it's a huge volume to heat, not to mention zero insulation. Has anyone come up with a solution. I don't need it be 80 degrees in there, but at least 65 degrees. Open to any suggestions, thanks!

the 15x17 foot roll was around 125 pounds. I cut it in half as it is cumbersome to move around. I need it to be portable in case I need to take it down real quick because of rain.

Thanks! Not bad for sitting on my driveway!

How heavy is that turf?
