This is the top of the line professional grade BirdieBall Golf Practice Net. The 3X, Triple Baffle Net, incorporates a removeable, replaceable, third layer baffle. This is the latest in golf ball practice nets and is the best golf practice net in the industry...period! The entire golf net is two layers of high strength nylon netting. This by its self is unique in the industry, and we have sold thousands of them without the third layer baffle. We wanted to seperate ourselves even further from any competition. We now are again, miles ahead in golf ball stopping technology. This third layer re-moveable, re-placeable baffle is new to the golf industry, and can only improve the service life of this already extraordinary golf practice net. Further, in the unlikely event that the baffle sees enough use to show wear, it is re-placeable for a fraction of the cost of a new net. This provides even the high use golf professional with a third layer of redundancy in his/her professional environment.
Professional Grade, Direct to You! We are the factory, we sell to golf professionals all over the world. Now you the consumer, can get the best net in the business for less than what you would pay for a single layer, canopy style net elsewhere. How sure are we? Check it out. Bookmark this page and go look. We blow all other golf practice net offers out of the water.
Dimensions: Not to big, not to small. We know that space is always an issue but you need size to maximize catchability. This net can fit indoors easily and obviously works great outside. The height is 8 feet. The width is 10 feet. The depth is 5 feet.
Why all of the layers? We have been making and selling golf nets for years. It is one of the products that we want to be the world leader in. When we first started making nets we learned that when a golf ball hits netting at speeds in excess of 150 mph a very violent collision occurs. The winner will always be the golf ball if hit in the same spot enough times. Complicating the difficulty of stopping this projectile is the fact that it is spinning in excess of 10,000 rpm. Old worn golf balls (the type you practice with) have many cuts and nicks. These small cuts act like razor blades when spinning at these high spin rates. As a result, a golf practice net is constantly being sawed apart. So in the golf practice net business, it is about buying time. How long can I keep the golf ball contained while it is cutting through the netting? Two factors determine this. First is the material the net is made out of and second how thick is it. We use nylon netting which is a minimum of .030" thick. This is the strongest netting material with a thick weave. We then put two layers of this netting all of the way around the net. Then, because it is possible to wear through a layer, we have added a third layer to take all of the wear and tear. Further, we have made it re-moveable and re-placeable. Essentially creating a sacrifical baffle that takes the golf ball sawing motion so that the other two layers can do what they are intended to do...stop golf balls.
Baffle Velcros in Easily! The fitted baffle has heavy duty velcro around three sides so that is easily re-moved and re-placed. Remember, this is a redundant system, the net works fine without it. This redundancy provides additional life to the system.
Crown Clearance. We have designed the net to have clearance for the golf club to not hit the net, when the golfer is in close to the net. Catchability or the ability to catch the golf ball is aided by how close the golfer can actually stand in proximity to the net. This is dependant on keeping the golf club, most often driver, away from the net. This is accomplished by leaning the front of the net back slightly.
Tiger Woods. You will be interested in hearing that Tiger has hit into this net...
True Story About "The Man": Dateline; Lake Worth, FL, Feb. 5, 2008. EA Sports' photographer purchased the double layer version of this net because he needed a net that "The Man", "El Tigre", would not hit through during their photo shoot. Seems every other net on the market would turn to rags in minutes with his ball speed. Each year they would try a new net. The BirdieBall double layer net worked like the champion it is and will be used again and again. Just think about how well yours will work with yet another layer of re-moveable netting.
Care and use. This net is not intended to be used as a structure. In other words we recommend taking it down when you are not using it. At the very least remove the baffle. Ultraviolet light attacks all fabrics, nylon is no different. The more you keep it out of the sun the longer it will last.
