Visual Clarity That Feels Like the Course

A good golf impact screen should let you see crisp graphics without hassle. Carl’s Place Preferred and Premium screens use heavy-duty layered polyester with tight weaves to produce sharp imagery and minimal distortion. You’ll be able to project a clear virtual golf course even in rooms with some ambient light. And yes, they can handle shots up to 250 MPH without stretching or tearing! 

Designed for High‑Speed Hits, Low‑Noise Impact

These golf simulator impact screens are built tough. Carl’s Place Premium screens feature three layers of impact-resistant material and reinforced edges that reduce noise and bounce-back—so practice feels quieter and safer. The high‑contrast gray material option enhances visuals in brighter rooms, too.

Sizing, Tension & Installation Tips

Choose a screen size that fits your room and matches your projector’s aspect ratio. Carl’s Place provides options from 7.7 × 7.7 ft (1:1) up to wides like 10 × 18 (16:9), all with vinyl edges and grommets for easy mounting.

Want to avoid annoying rebound? Precise tension is key here. Ideally, your ball should bounce back only 1–3 feet after impact. Make sure there’s at least a foot of space between the screen and the wall behind it, and keep at least 10 feet between you and the screen when hitting.

Built for Sim Completeness & Safety

Pair your screen with one of our sturdy golf studio enclosure frames for added protection and sound-dampening. These enclosures help reduce stray ball risk and give your setup a clean, professional look.

For full-function setups, add putting mats and golf launch monitors. Need a short-game surface? We also offer putting mats for tech and feel work.

High-quality golf simulator impact screens don’t just hold up - they actually enhance your practice with better visuals, quieter impact, and safer, smarter performance. Choose the right screen for your space, lock in tension, and you're set.

FAQs

What types of golf impact screens are available?


Carl’s Place offers multiple models: Standard, Preferred (tight weave), and Premium (three-layer impact polyester). They support sizes from 7.7’×7.7’ to widescreen formats.

How do I match the screen to my projector?


You’ll want to pick a screen aspect ratio that aligns with your projector. Common options are 4:3, 16:9, and 16:10. Then size it so your projected image fills the screen fully.

What tolerance is safe for bounce back?


After a driver shot, aim for about 1–3 feet of bounce back. Too much tension is unsafe; too little impact absorbency will let the ball slam into the wall.

Can these screens be used with launch monitors?


Yes. Higher-quality visual and impact surfaces help launch monitor systems track data like launch angle accurately. Pair them with mats and enclosures for best results.

Are these screens loud on impact?

Premium screens reduce noise with thicker, multi-layer fabric. Proper mounting and black-out backing also help dampen sound.
