Honest persona fit, side by side.

Better for Standard Enclosure

  • Cost-Effective Buyer

    A complete bay with poles, walls, roof and padding for $1,300. A Carl's DIY 8×8 is $999.95 before you buy the EMT pipe; this one is done when the box arrives.

Better for SIG8 Enclosure

  • Space-Constrained

    Not a low-ceiling answer: SIG asks for a 9 ft ceiling, and the frame alone stands 8'4". What it does fit is a narrower, shorter room than the rest of the SIG line, at least 10 ft wide and 16 ft long against 12 by 18 for the SIG10. Under a 9 ft ceiling, no enclosure fixes it: that is below Shop Indoor Golf's swing minimum for every golfer.
