Honest persona fit, side by side.

Better for Retractable Net (16' Garage Door)

  • Space-Constrained

    It rolls up out of the way on the garage-door tracks, so the garage stays a garage.

Better for Golf Simulator Enclosure (SIM 1)

  • Recreational Player

    A complete kit with a 3-layer screen and dark velour walls for a better-looking picture, at a price close to a Carl's kit plus pipe.

  • Family Setup

    Velour side and ceiling panels contain stray shots, and the larger SIM sizes give width for two stances.
