Any reviews on this screen yet?

I just purchased a Supertex screen and I am very happy with the quality. I really like how the screen is mounted. I have mine installed in a 10' x 8.5' x 2.5' cage with a net on 4 sides of the cage. The screen is in front of the net. I have hit a few real golf balls with no issues but plan to use the Almost Golf balls most of the time.

Do you have any pictures of how you have the screen mounted to the frame? Did you go with the option where the screen wraps around the mounts or are you using the adjustable straps?

I actually purchased the complete cage kit with the Supertex Impact Screen included. It is mounted using the adjustable straps. The first thing I did was to install the foam padding over the 1" PVC pipe. I then installed the PVC pipe in all four sides of the screen. I then attached the screen with 3 adjustable straps on each side. You can control the wrinkles in the screen by tightening the straps. Since I am using Almost Golf balls, I try to keep the screen tight to improve the picture quality. However, you can see in the attached pictures that I need to tighten the screen again.

Let me know if you have additional questions.

Thanks for sharing the pictures. Are you concerned that you will have to constantly be adjusting the straps? For this reason, I'm debating on having a second screen that will only be used for movies.

So far I am not having to tighten it very often but I've only had the screen for a few weeks.

How are you liking this screen now that you've had a couple of months with it. How is the ball bounce back?
