I bought this one in December of 2015 and have been well satisfied with it: Amazon.com : PowerNet Golf Net | Use Real or Practice Balls | New and Improved Design for 2019 | for Working on Drives, Chips with Woods or Irons | Large Hitting Surface | Indoor or Outdoor Use (10' x 7') : Sports & OutdoorsI've left it outside in the northeast since I got it and it has held up admirably. Recommended.

I was hitting balls through my first net (bought it on Amazon for $80-$90 I think) so I purchased the Amazon essentials net, set it up, and put my first net behind the new net. So far I've had no issues, I think double nets is the way to go.

 

Driver was never an issue for me, even with one net. I don't know exact ball speeds, my swing speed hovers around 115 to 120, maybe a little higher at times. The only time a ball went through my net was when I was hitting an iron or Wedge that spun a lot. I will add that it's important to switch balls frequently if you tend to mark them up with wedges or your irons. Those marks /whiskers chew through the netting in my experience.

The Haack Golf NetGreat net and you can find even better deals than direct from the manufacturer if you look around. Super easy to put up and take down. Less than 2 minutes each way.

Check out Rawhide Golf for mats. The owner is extremely responsive and helpful. When I told him I wanted to cut a mat to something smaller than 5x5, he gave me detailed instructions on how to do that. Not only that, he suggested I buy his lower grade mat since his grade ratings are mostly based on the wear at the tee hole locations. No attempt to up-sell at all.

He sells on eBay and directly on his site. Prices are better direct.

Being cooped up the last couple weeks, I've been researching nets and mats... Many follow the same basic frame design like the Haack, Amazon Basics and PowerNet. The difference appears to be quality of materials and net. I opted for the PowerNet like FL's since the reviews were mostly positive for its price point. Set up and take down were important for me since I don't intend to leave it up all the time.

I do plan to double up on the net since a ball will launch into the street if it goes through... The frame design should allow me to hang a cheap Harbor Freight mesh tarp or net on the back.

I’d say the Rukket net is better quality. The pictures of the one on Amazon show it nearly caving in on itself when a ball is hit into it. The Rukket net is WAY more stable. I’ve never seen it do anything like that. Also, the netting looks more sturdy on the Rukket. But I’m only basing that on the pictures from Amazon. Maybe similar designs, but I’d spend more and get the Rukket. I bought mine years ago for $99 shipped, but don’t remember from where.

LC9MX9GHFYID.jpegThere’s also the Rukket-Pro. Looks like it handles higher wedge shots better. Haven’t seen one until I looked at their website recently. Don’t think it was available when I got mine.

I honestly couldn't tell you ball speed but I put a decent strike on it. Driver carry around 275, hit 7 iron around 165. To be honest, I'm hitting mostly 4 and 7 irons into it but I've also hit plenty of drivers into it and I wasn't worried at all. It is very stable but I can't speak to what would happen if you bang hundreds of drivers a day into it. I've hit thousands of irons and left it out all winter and the only thing that happened was the red faded on the velcro straps.

Also, see videos on amazon for how stable it is.

Use code "SGS15" for 15% off at Rukket. (Shotgun Start podcast listeners). I ordered the Haack with the tri-turf mat and it ended up being $153 shipped. Hoping it comes today.

You’ll love that net. The return is great. Better struck shots return perfectly. Thin shots not so much. The net will kind of give you shot feedback. You’ll see once you start using it. I’ve got several years on mine and couldn’t be happier with it.

My rawhide mat in grade "A" condition came yesterday (took only 2 days from Indiana to Maryland). It's fantastic. Looks barely used. Here's a pic:

Now looking for a good net.
