  • Patent number: 5876291
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for practice of a golf drive is set forth. The ball is driven from a simulated tee area against an upright sheet of flexible material such as heavy cotton ducking or nylon mesh. This sheet is deployed in a vertical upright position in the open doorway of a garage or under the eave thereof and is supported by at least two corner located taut bunge cords. An optional third is located at a center point. The several cords hold the sheets in a resilient fashion so that it can yield and snap back in response to a golf ball driven against the sheet. In an alternate form, a rectangular sheet connects on three sides to a safety net and the net connects to a frame having a central horizontal portion.
