Don't buy for golf on baseball

I've read other reviews about the difficulty of setting it up. I do not understand. If you've pitched a tent before, you might as well do that. It literally connects the bars and pushes them through the hole. However my problem is that the poles were the same length so there was only one way to put them together and once everything was put together the mesh became too tight. In the pictures the net seems to have sagged a bit, but the net is stretched to the brim and as a result every ball flies straight at you. Even if you hit the golf ball at any speed, the net won't last very long. I had a premonition that this was going to happen, so I threw the ball into the net with the forest behind, just in case. After about my 4th shot with the 4th iron, the ball went straight over the net. As soon as you unpack it, you can tell that it doesn't hold up so well. I wasn't expecting much for the price so I decided to give it a try just to see. Well I was right. Sent back the same day I received it. You really do get what you pay for.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Hard to tell
