Anyone recommend one for use in the garage? I've read bad reviews about several Izzo and Hank Haney products regarding clips snapping after only a few shots, instability, etc. Looking for something for a couple times/week practice. Thanks.

Bought the torrey pines package from birdieball. I'll post a quick review once it's setup and used. Anyone else have this one?

Before we installed our simulators we tried a few different nets....and the problem with them was you have to keep the net loose to capture the ball...and in doing so, the balls would get tangled up in the net...and we found too much time spent extracting the balls.

One day, someone had a large green furniture moving blanket.....these were like 6' x 8'......but unlike normal blankets or tarps, these were padded.

We hung one up on hooks, about 2" from the wall and I'll be damned, these things worked awesome!

Balls mad a nice, but subtle "thump" against them....and would drop and roll back to the hitter.

I believe the cost on these were $24 each....

I KNOW I have pictures of one of these set up if anyone is interested....

I did this today and just like indacup said it worked GREAT. Unfortunately I could only hang it about a foot or so from the wall. I had one bounce off of the ceiling though. Still worked great I would reccomend it to anyone with a garage. Good luck

    • Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.
    • Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂 
    • I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
    • Day 12 - 2025-12-31 Limited time today, and heavy rains here. 5-10 minutes of mirror work for full swing, working on trail side.
    • Day 2, 12/31/25.  Similar to yesterday (rainy, no surprise), I hit primarily 6-iron full swings with the same focus;  I also hit some chips (about 1/8 swing) with the 54.  About two dozen full swings and an equal number of short shots.  All of this was indoors, off a mat, into a net, real balls.
