I wanted to let you know that my husband put together his new golf impact screen today and could not be happier. All the dimensions were perfect, and it went together really quickly. We are 100% satisfied customers. THANK YOU!!
Bring the fairway to you and improve your game from the comfort of your garage, barn, backyard or any space large enough to swing a golf club. You're ready to get training with your very own DIY impact screen, rain or shine. Maybe you even have a swing caddie ready to track your golf swing speed!
Before you tee up, the first decision you need to make concerns budget — do you splurge for incredible image quality or get the size you want? Learn how to select the best material for you here.
For those indecisive or curious about which tradeoff to make to fit your budget, let's start with screens and go from there. We offer Standard, Preferred, and Premium Screens ranging in price, each with their own advantages.
Screen Options:Golf Impact Materials
Standard
- Perfect for beginners or first-timers – an inexpensive impact screen for golf.
- Budget-friendly projection screen for golf simulators.
- Use with real golf balls up to 250 MPH.
- Best value for both home and light commercial users looking for the best durability.
- Much smoother texture than Standard with tightly woven fibers for better HD picture.
- Use with real golf balls up to 250 MPH with an indoor golf simulator.
- The smoothest surface available on a full impact material.
- Made of three layers of heavy-duty, tight-knit impact resistant polyester.
- Quiets noise from the golf ball hitting the screen with a cushioned center layer.
- Recommended where image quality is the top concern.
Aspect Ratio:
We recommend building a screen to match your projector's aspect ratio. However, Carl's golf screens are often chosen to fit a space first and fit a projected image second. Choose whichever is more important to you. See this article for more information.
Note that the life of a screen varies based on use. All Carl's impact screen users should note that these materials are "wearable" products. The style, ability, and frequency of the user will all contribute to the service life of a screen. However, all of our materials have been tested to withstand thousands of strikes at up to 250 miles per hour.
Packaging:Opt to have foldable materials sent in a box to save on packaging and freight to keep your material shipping affordable. Finished Edge Screens ship folded in a box and cannot be rolled.
Consult the product selections above to view your purchasing options as not all materials are available in all sizes or packaging options.
These sizes are a cut of raw material only. No black vinyl. No grommets.

| Aspect Ratio | Diagonal (inches) | Cut Size– H x W (inches) | Seam | Folded– Box Size (inches) | Box Weight (lbs.) | Rolled– Tube Size (inches) | Tube Weight (lbs.) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

1:1 = Non-Standard. These sizes are not a standard aspect ratio.
Aspect ratio simply refers to the shape of the image being projected. When the ratio of the projector, image, and screen match the image fills the entire screen. The 1:1 is a square and is not a standard aspect ratio for projectors, but may work if space is limited, although it increases the chances of seeing black bars and you will likely have to adjust the settings on your computer. Adjusting the settings on your computer may be very difficult for most customers unless you are technically savvy.

NA = Not Applicable. These sizes are not a standard aspect ratio.
Aspect ratio simply refers to the shape of the image being projected. When the ratio of the projector, image, and screen match the image fills the entire screen. These sizes are not a standard aspect ratio, therefore, ratio is not applicable (NA).
For some customers, the projected image is secondary while the safety of the surrounding area is the priority. Selecting a size that it fits your space, but where the aspect ratio is not applicable, is an option. Just be aware the image will not fill the entire screen if you are using it for projection and the black masking bars or blank areas on the screen will be visible.
These sizes are finished with 2.5-inch black vinyl edges and grommets all the way around the screen. Our grommets have an outer dimension of 3/4" and an inner dimension of 3/8". The front of the grommet has a smooth, rounded, pleasing appearance that identifies the front of your golf screen.
♦ All finished edge screens are made by hand. Please allow for slight variances in size. Package dimensions and weights may vary, however, every effort has been made to provide the most accurate information available. Finished Edge Screens ship folded in a box and cannot be rolled.

BTW I love it. If it was the wife or screen. I would pick the screen. ;0)

This is by far the best impact screen I have ever had! After a year of Tour player ball speeds hitting the screen on a daily basis, the screen still looks like the day we got it. I would highly recommend this screen to anyone!

This is a must have for any golf simulator set up and doubles as a big screen for sporting events. I use this with the OptiShot2 with an overhead projector. I recommend purchasing "Almost Golf Balls", although this thing can easily take and stop regular ones. If you're worried about the length being too long, don't. It's actually nice having the extra part curved to the ground to function as a type of ball return. I was worried about creases. This is VERY heavy, durable stuff so the creases work themselves out after hanging for a bit. PROS: high quality, heavy-weight fabric, great image quality, strong grommets and high quality edging and fast, responsive customer service (I emailed with a couple questions prior to purchasing - YES they can do custom sizes if you want. CONS: None

I received your product and already installed it. I said to myself when I opened it, "Are you kidding me, WOW, this looks fantastic!!!" My friends drove about 20 miles to see the simulator. They are impressed. Thank you so much!"

Works great. Thanks!
