The Net Return Golf Nets

Measure the width and height of your space and allow 14ft (4.3m) of length for a full swing. The minimum room sizes are:

• Junior: 6ft 6in wide, 5ft 6in high
• Mini: 7ft wide, 7ft high
• Home: 9ft wide, 8ft high
• Pro: 10ft wide, 8ft 6in high
• Pro 10: 12ft wide, 9ft high

Many UK rooms have ceilings of about 7ft 10in (2.4m), which clears the Junior and the Mini; the Home and the Pro models ask for more. Our guide to golf simulator ceiling height explains how much headroom a full swing needs, and room for a full swing always depends on your height and club length. For the Pro 8 and Pro 9, book a consultation and we'll check your space.

The Pro (Pro Series V2) is 8ft wide and 7ft 6in high. The Pro 8, Pro 9 and Pro 10 are the larger Pro models: 8ft high, 6in taller than the Pro, in widths of 8, 9 or 10ft. All of them are built for ball speeds up to 225 mph and go up without tools, so the choice comes down to how big a target your room can take.

It comes down to your space. The Home (Home Series V2) is 7ft wide and 7ft high and needs a room at least 9ft wide and 8ft high. The Pro (Pro Series V2) is 8ft wide and 7ft 6in high, needs 10ft by 8ft 6in, and is built for ball speeds up to 225 mph. If your room takes the Pro, its wider net gives you a bigger target.

Most practice nets catch the ball and drop it, so you stop every few shots to collect balls. The Net Return sends each ball back to you, so you can keep hitting. If you would rather have a net that catches the ball, a net with a roof for the garden or a lower-priced first net, see our full range of golf practice nets.

The Pro nets (the Pro, Pro 8, Pro 9 and Pro 10) are built for ball speeds up to 225 mph, well beyond what most golfers reach, so you can hit every club in the bag, driver included.

Pair it with a launch monitor and it becomes a simple home simulator. The launch monitor reads each shot, and many come with apps for range sessions and course play on a phone, tablet or TV. Check how much room your launch monitor needs first: our guide to the best launch monitors under £1,000 covers the room each one needs and what it costs with a net. For a full projector and screen setup, see our garage golf simulators.

A good golf hitting mat protects your floor and your wrists and gives you a consistent surface to strike from. Add a launch monitor if you want numbers on every shot, such as ball speed and carry. Our guide to indoor golf at home walks through the rest of a home setup.

The Pro nets go up in under five minutes, by one person, with no tools needed.

Yes. The Pro nets are made for indoor and outdoor use, so you can practise in the garden in summer and move into the garage when the weather turns. They take footballs and baseballs too.
