This net is outstanding if you want to practice your stroke at home/out doors. It took me about 20-30 minutes to put up on my first try but after that it takes me on average about 10-15 minutes. I don't hit the real golf balls in the neighborhood for fear of missing the net but I do use some good practice balls that are pretty good substitutes but won't shatter a window or cause damage. I only use my net to maintain and emphasize learned technique and form...to truly get a guage on how you're hitting 'em, you will have to go to the range as this product won't reveal your slices/pulls.
