Cimarron Sports 10x10x10 Masters Golf UV Treated Net and Archery Netting Baffle with Golf Net Target

I've had a golf net for nearly 30 years. The original net came from ParBuster and I was going to buy from them again but like everyone else, they seem to be having supply chain and availability issues - they were a month out on delivery and $150 more than this net.Not sure how well this net would work without a frame - it weighs about 30 pounds with the back panel. I saw some folks using schedule 40 pipe - that might be a cheaper alternative over what I used - see below.I used 2 inch x 10 foot EMT galvanized tubing for a frame. When I bought it decades ago, it was about $9 for a 10 footer and the 90 degree corners were about $5 each. Today, the ten footers are nearly $40 per section and the 90 degree corners are about $20 each. COVID supply chain/price gouging? Probably.The net itself is pretty easy to install once you figure which corner goes where. I mark each corner high and low with weather proof label tapes at the end of each season before I pack the net up. Makes assembly the next year a LOT easier. I used zip ties to attach the rope perimeter to the metal frame - that works well,The real "tell" will be seeing how long this net lasts. I plan to spray it with UV/waterproofing agent. I did that every 2 years with my old net and it lasted almost 30 years. Hope that helps!

The net itself is of great quality and I can hit full driver into it without a problem.Assembly: 4 stars- I set up the net myself on a 6-foot ladder. I recommend renting or buying a taller ladder to assemble this net, but I got away with it even though it felt like I was on my tiptoes on the ladder (not very safe) while assembling. I am a fairly handy person with most of the necessary tools but this assembly only required a hammer, saw, or something you can cut PVC with, and a ladder. Here is a template that I followed and the beauty of this type of template is that it is sturdy and movable! Check it out here: https://assets.formufit.com/plans/pdfs/FORMUFIT_PVC_Golf_Cage.pdfDurability: The net itself is very durable. Like I stated above, I can hit full driver and it works like a charm. The box comes with the 10x10x10x10 net, another backstop type net, and a durable rubber mat that takes the brunt of the impacts (I highly recommend using this mat to save your net and use it as an aiming tool). Overall, the net is very durable.Sturdiness: Again, the structure is the most important aspect of this project, and having a plan before you buy the net is even more important than the net itself. The net will work for your needs once you set up a structure that is sturdy. Have a plan for how you are going to hang the net before you start.That is my recommendation. Use PVC if you are looking for something that is cheap, sturdy, and easy to take down!

Now that I have it erected and in use I love it. Unfortunately there were no real assembly instructions, just a diagram. It omitted a step regarding hanging the baffle (like loosening the back frame enough to get the baffle pole inserted) and the You Tube vide was general and completely without detail. So a day of frustration gave way to a lot of fun and overall a good product in which I can hit any club in my bag with confidence.

It takes an engineer to figure out how to put it together but good quality. Need better instructions.

I hung this net and baffle from a 10x10x10 PVC (1 1/2) structure. The net is true to size and was easy to hang. It has adjustable ropes in the corners to fit to structure. The side net is a good gauge and the archery net baffle seems indestructible. I am very pleased with the quality of the net, baffle, and target.

Very impressed so far, seems very high quality. The baffle is very heavy and the target is thick and durable.

Used for my diy golf simulator. Works perfect!!
