Select any sturdy material to be used for the poles, such as steel tubes, PVC pipes or wood beams. Baffle nets are woven close together, which means you won't lose your ball through the net.

Use a shovel or post digger to dig holes for the poles that will be the frame of the practice net.

Step 3

Attach the baffle net or tarp to the poles with nylon tie cords that are about a foot long.

Bury the ends of each 12-foot metal post or wood beam in the holes that you dug with the post digger. Firmly pack the dirt back in the holes to keep the posts in place.

I'm not leaving this thread in the lurch; rather I've been painfully watching the netting track across country from Oregon to Texas via UPS tracking and it is supposed to finally arrive by End of Day tomorrow.

Here's my DYI net and a "Real Feel" mat. I screwed eye bolts into the top of the carport and then used small bungees to secure the netting to the poles. Working very well:

final net. Good loose fitting promotes the ball deadening pretty much on impact. But range balls will occasionally bounce off the frame after it drains and bounce out onto the patio.

Looks like a pretty good set up! I gotta admit I went the cheap route. All I did was install a couple hooks in the ceiling of my garage and hung a king size bed cover from it. I fire balls into it every day and works great!
