Holy s*^t! It's like a scaled down version of Mike Weir's indoor bunker. Here's the gallery: http://imgur.com/a/ye5q0

I hope he never spoons it into the wall and it bounces back at him, that would be unpleasant.

Yeah, I'd hang old drapes or something on the walls.

lmao yeah it looks a bit tight in there. That could hurt with a ball firing back at high speeds and close range

Yeah - a few of those foam exercise mats or even foam insulation panels on the walls would give me a little more piece of mind. That said, I'm still totally jealous - would love to carve out a little space for something like this at home.

Thats pretty cool.  One of these years I should do something like that.  Should help pass the long winters we have up north.

I wouldn't feel comfortable hitting full shots in such a small area. I'm guessing this guy is probably a much better player than me so it's most likely not an issue for him. I'm going to set up a hitting station in the garage this winter, but nothing this fancy. Just a net, mat, and a camera or two for filming.

If you click on the link there is a post that says he isn't hitting real golf balls but is hitting almost golf balls. I'm assuming they are foam?

Yeah. High density foam balls.

      Can be out and up a little more. Not quite over-done yet.

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Down the line and face on from today. Still feeling like I’m sticking the club into a hole in the ceiling above my right shoulder and then big loop inside to start downswing. That’s how it feels. Not how it looks though! Gotta keep working on this for a bit but I see a lot of progress. 😁

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 5 (13 Mar 26) - Friday shootout cancelled- made it a practice round working from mixed tees. Plenty of up and down work around greens.  Best was a hole out birdie on the par 3 #5 hole - nice pitch and roll w/Pw from about 10yds off the green - dead center flagstick drop.  Much of round was focused on getting solid weight shift into lead foot.

      Day 208 3-13 Worked on wrist arching and flow. First time hitting reall balls at a range in months. It was nice to see ball flight. Still not sure it beats my backyard practice station.

      Three hole match - microphones on in the cart. It's fascinating listening to them talk about their shots and how they play them. I'm not normally a huge fan of the TM videos - they seem forced to me - but this one doesn't. It's also fun seeing their competitiveness over what on the face of it is a fairly meaningless 3 holes, but they can't help themselves.
