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

Thats awesome...unless he invites a lefty like myself over to play. but if thats just for his own use or just knows right handed golfers that is pretty cool. Curious to know how accurate it is

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.

KICK THE FLIP!!

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.
