Next step is the baffle. For those which are new this goes in front of the existing net and allows the enclosure/studio to be only 14" from the wall. It took 4 trys to get it right - the baffle net was NOT labeled like the other net so did not know where the corners where. I finally took some of the sand bags from my net pro and layed them down on the turn - you might be able to see them in the pictures. Next step is to hang the screen. Also in the picture is a stand for my ipad. this should allow me to use the motion software app and record my swing.

Nice work!! How high is your ceiling?Comment

8 ft and 4 in where the back of the enclosure begins. The enclosure will be 8ft high and 12 ft wide and 4 ft in depth.Originally posted by chudiddy View PostComment

looks good tight on height but what ever it takes to go projector, screen its worth it I had a tight ceiling height at my last house and added a little memory foam to the swing area it saved a couple clubs and a few patch jobs i think. I ran a 5 layer baffle system for sound which is almost non existent in the ball impact to screen issue good luck.Comment

Here are some more shots. I have some finish touches to make - such as Tee markers, cart sign, putting holes, etc. I am happy with the size but I need to get the projector screen a little tighter. For some reason the screen only has grommets on the top and one on the bottom. Hoping to make some additional holes along the side and bottom. For anyone out there I have a connection question. I first tried to hook up the projector and the PC HDMI to HDMI but that did not work. I had to use the connection from the graphics from the PC to the HDMI on the projector. Should HDMI to HDMI work? I would like to have the projector show an image and also have a image on the PC screen.Comment

I have the same screen problem...needs some tightening. I noticed that my screen could be tightened if I attach some bungee cords from the screen edge to the back-side frame. The screen edges look quite strongly finished...I intend to punch some small holes to attach bungees...and, if they do start tearing, get a grommet kit. HDMI should work fine. You may have to go to your settings to tell the PC you have two displays, and, that you want both to show the same.

Try using tarp clips from HD or Lowes. That way you don't have to put any additional holes in your screen. Others have used them and say they work quite well. Also, i think you need to go into your display settings and put it as extend desktop or something like that. I display to both the projector and monitor.Comment

'duplicate' if you want the same image on both screens. 'extend' if you want different images on both screens. Either works well depending what you want to do.
Also the tarp clips that screw for clamping are better than those that press fit to tighten in my experience. And I've broken a couple of my hard plastic ones from direct hits but never broken my soft plastic ones so pick the soft versions if you have a choice. Or buy a couple spares...since I've only broken a couple in many years of use it isn't a big deal.Comment

Not sure if im interpreting your question right but I just used an hdmi cord from the hdmi port on graphics card, bought an hdmi splitter and ran two cords from the splitter to the projector and the monitor and it worked nicelyOriginally posted by penrose View PostComment

I think my issue is my graphics card does NOT have a HDMI port - the HDMI port is separate. So, I cannot use extend or duplicate because the PC or OS does not see the other monitor. I think the splitter is the one I need to go.
For tarp clips I love this idea did not know about them. is this what we are talking about?

Do I have to remove the pole/pipe to but them on - that would be sorta of a drag.Comment

I found this link
look like you attach the clip by Velcro strap or a tie wrap. Think I got it.Comment

Gotcha, not sure if you have a VGA or DVI port on the graphics card instead, but if you want to still go with hdmi, took a quick search on amazon and saw thisOriginally posted by penrose View Post
Maybe just buy one of these, attach the hdmi end to a splitter and then connect two separate hdmi cords from that to the projector and monitorComment

Wow I also have 8 ft ceilings and afraid of hitting the ceiling on full driver swings. Can you swing freely and comfortable at that height?Originally posted by penrose View PostComment
-
My room has a vaulted ceiling. So, the hitting area the ceiling is from 10ft to 12 feet or higher - so driver can swing away. The edge of the room is 8'4" and then the ceiling begins to slope up.Comment

Nice work.... I am in the "planning" stage with mine and have similar space available. Can you tell me where you purchased your turf and net? thanks and enjoy your room

here you go - checked out a few places and this seemed to be the best fit. I have the clips and the screen is nice and tight. Happy with everything so far. I went with the superbay and the terra shield.
