Nice Job! That is really impressive.

Brother - this is such a awesome setup , how was the install for the par2pro screen? I didn’t even know about them until I saw this thread and the price seems reasonable- is there another screen behind the impact screen?

there is - it’s originally from a company called sports screen, which does these for hockey. Par2Pro puts some super strong Velcro on it and you attach your impact screen on top.

installation is pretty straightforward. The biggest issue was the angled roof - needed to reinforce it with some painted plywood. The folks at Par2Pro are incredibly helpful though.

Are you worried at all about parking on top of the foam? I'm looking at doing the same, but my wife wants to park in the garage during the winter, but it would be annoying to have to pick it up every time

From other threads I’ve read in here, it sounded like the flooring is pretty resilient. But if I need to I could theoretically swap the mats out every so often - they’re not incredibly expensive, and installation only took a few hours for the mats and carpet...

This is an amazing build! Great job. I am very curious about how you "raised the rafters"? The beams in my garage are 8-6". My buddies and I can play most clubs, but we dont use a driver. We have some old three woods that sometimes touch, but we can use irons without issue. If I could have the rafters be a little higher, it would be perfect.

I hired a structural engineer who drafted the plans for me. I had to cut and install the new beams first, then remove the old ones below it. They’re just 2x4s nailed a certain way to the joists on each side. Fairly straightforward, once you have the plans.

That is so cool. I am doing something in my garage also. I purchased the 16' screen from Par 2 Pro. I am wondering how long it took you to get the sq screen from the date you ordered? Have you played movies on the screen yet? If so how does the quality look?

Took a while, maybe 6-8 weeks? The sport screen came first, and the impact screen came 2 weeks or so later.

Movies look great - the black backdrop and floor I think make it feel much more theater-like. The kids have used it every day.

Your set up is so sweet. Can I ask you what date your ordered?

[intentionally]

Looks like 9/17. I was out of town in October, and got it in the first week or two in November.

Thanks, I ordered end of September. Due to a mix up with my order mine was delayed. I did find out the rest of my order has shipped and I expect it next week. Hope to post some pics the garage build soon. I love yours. You should be extremely proud of it.

Awesome set up! Looks fantastic. How do you find the almost balls work with the Mevo+? I understand the distances would be off slightly, but do you feel like you are getting accurate shot shapes?

Seems pretty accurate once I played with the boost settings on TGC. Directionally no issues - I’ve read elsewhere it has accuracy issues w/ spin, etc. but candidly I’m not good enough to notice.
