Positive:

-Size, good surface area

-Chipping net

Negatives:

-Poor instructions

-Very hard to set up by yourself. Really takes 2 people, because nothing fits tight, so as you try to get one side in, the other side pops out.

-Nothing locks in. Plastic caps to hold rear poles don't fit tightly. The 'male' sticks that go into the 'female' section of the rear poles are not tight, so a wind from the rear pushes it over.

I have had to make some modifications to this item to make it usable. I taped some eyelets to the bottom of the rear poles and attached to ring with caribiners. I've had to tape the caps onto the top of the rear poles and add some tape to the ends of the front pole to make it snug.

Brutal, horrible instructions! No pictures! No clear, concise steps to follow. It took 2 people to set up and just as previous reviewers mentioned, nothing fits properly. It's very flimsy and unsteady. I was extremely frustrated and dissapointed in this product so I returned it. Don't waste your time and money. Spend a little more and get a better product.

This item is not for someone that wants it setup in a couple of minutes. The items they give you, to setup the net are a bit cheesey. With some mods to the device, it would be just OK. I sent it back.

Good instructions, might have helped in receiving it. Pictures always work!! =)

This thing is very difficult to erect and it lasted not more than 3 months as the netting actually rotted out---such a waste of money- AMAZON should be ashamed to sell this product, Ronald C. Burger

Mine did not come with instruction so took for a while to figure out how to put together, still have some parts left that I don't know where to go... but however I did, it looks like what's in the picture and works very well for my purpose. I am a 2 handicapper (I guess I'm a pretty serious golfer), I use this net to check my swing with video (great camera I also bought on amazon... "Kodak Zx1" which takes 60 frames per second -normal cameras only take 30 fps-). It's just so convenient to have this in my backyard so I can review my swing on the big screen TV in the house and come back out to do more work and so on.... It will not work for someone who is concerned about how far and which direction the balls are going, you may want to go a driving range instead, but this is a great warm up tool for someone who haven't played for a while to get your body used to the motion. Design could have been a bit better, but I am happy what I got especially for the price.

Terrible set up. Came with no instructions. Figured it out but very flimsy and difficult to put together. Not portable at all because of the difficult assembly.

Not a good product.

I received the product with no assembly instructions. Contacted Amazon and they quickly sent a second net with NO!!! assembly instructions (which I can tell was returned before because the net was stuffed in the bag). I called Wilson and they stated that the product is made by a company that they license to use their name. I called the company (Applesports) and did not get an answer. Tried to find them on the net and was unsuccessful. I will be returning both nets and purchase something different. Don't buy this product!

it takes two people to set this up once you figure out how the first time, since it never came with instructions. i had to take two pieces of rubber hose to keep them from coming out at the top to hold the rear poles in place at the top. for the money its not bad. i keep hitting the ball over the top if i dont stand very close to it i say a club shafts lenth. save your money buy a better net from your pro shop.

First of all, as the others reviewers pointed out< the instruccions for assembly are horrible. Second, the net is of very low quality; it pierced in less than 3 month. It was very scary hearing that ball boucing off three diferent houses after a ball pierced a hole thru it.

I have owned this net for 6 months now and spend too much time trying to find a way to make it stand up on its own as it keeps wanting to fall to one side or the other. It doesn't appear that the tripod approach works. I found the best way to make it stand up is to squeeze it into a corner of my fence and let the fence hold it up. On the plus side, the net works great and will stop every shot I hit into it, even from my driver...and I am using regulation golf balls. I am tired of this product and officially retired it from daily use. I will be shopping for a four-legged model, which should have much better stability and allow me to put the net anywhere I choose.
