Thanks for everyone's input. I have finally completed the build.

Looks great! What are the dimensions? What projector did you go with? Thanks!

What is the black material on your doors and walls? It looks great and I'm hoping to start my shed build by November.

Nice work - very creative use of space!

Thanks!

walls are plywood painted black and I used acoustic ceiling panels on the doors to dampen echo. I also insulated the walls with rouxl sound insulation.

How far from the back wall is the impact screen? How far from screen to hitting area? What screen material are you using and do you have anything behind it?

8 inchs from wall. I used some industrial blankets with grommets from northern tool. They just hang from the top. The hitting area is 7 1/2 feet from screen and I used the pr20 material from west coast netting. I am pretty impressed with the image quality.

I built extra large doors that swing open so the kids watch movies from the pool. I also had some extra screen material so came up with a screen saver that clamps up and down quickly for driving range practice. Attaching some more pics:

Very nice. Great idea on using the extra material for a hitting panel. What kind of turf did you use?

I went with this product. I almost went with the pro putt systems that does not require infill but this was local and I totally underestimated the amount of work to infill and roll to speed.

I will say it does roll just like a real green though so it was worth the effort.

What was your cost for building the shed structure? I've got a few quotes from contractors for similar size structure. I know I'll be paying a hefty premium for someone else to build it but curious how much.

[bpk]

Not sure I have a good friend who is a general contractor so he had his guys build it so it was cheap for me - my labor and material I got at his cost so only came out to about 6k. The soundproofing construction can get expensive quick. Material varies greatly in price depending on what your looking to accomplish

i did ask him what they would charge to do a structure like this without the buddy deal and he said roughly 12-15k.

Send me the specs you want an I can get a quote for you to at least see if people are giving you a decent deal.

[legendsfan]

I'll send it tonight. It's a lot more than what your buddy would charge but construction costs in Seattle are outrageous. May wait for my cousin to build it with me.

In your back swing, how much room is left between your club and the door? In your opinion, would a 12x12x10 shed work?

[bpk]

I think 14 would be the minimum for driver. I have about a foot with the doors closed and mine is 15.

[eatyolegs]

Thank you for your response.

If you have a foot behind you, and you're standing 7.5' from the screen, that means your back swing is taking up 6'-6.5' of space. Is that true? That seems like alot?
