Well I'm about to put everything together and tryin to figure out should I go with a ceiling mount or floor setup. Ordered the BenQ 671, have skytrak, hitting mat, and have a temporary impact screen that is 16x9 . My golf room is in the garage. I have blacked out windows and installed recessed lighting. Height of ceiling is only 99 inches. Using emt pipe to frame out screen screwing into concrete floor with the footpads and also mounting onto ceiling to the stud. Questions for the experienced builder.
1. Ceiling or Floor leaning towards floor for two reasons height restrictions and ability for lefty and righty players.
2. Throw distance for a screen size of 178 is 9ft 9 inches. So question is how far away from screen does every one hit from? I currently have a ruccket net and hit from 10 ft away never got ceiling.
Haven't bought yet
3. For side protection black commando curtains with sewn in chain on track is this enough 6ft depth. Should I have grommets installed on top and one side to attach to emt pipe to frame out screen?
4. Ceiling protection going with medium density foam cushion with either white material from Chicago canvas or a white impact net.
5. For boxed out black finish on top and bottom what do I use.
Below is pictures have gathered from hours of reading all of your posts. Projector final piece and have no idea how to mount on ceiling for both lefty righty players without being hit. i am lefty but rest of you bastards are mostly righty. So close to putting all this shit together so freaking excited. Should I buy floor case or ceiling mount. If I do floor how far away for projector Terra box can I hot from
