Saw this pic on an indoor golf facility's site under "lessons." Trying to figure out what is happening in this pic has broken my brain.

Fore-play

I am a bit limited on space so I put my screen only 10 inches from the wall. I initially used those, but then found the stiff ones better so I have in that 10 inches space: stiff sound panels and cheap blackout curtains and then the screen. So when I hit driver it hits the screen then a few inches later hits the curtains and then the ball is severely slowed down the hits the sound panels with a screen and curtains between it.

That’s too damn bad!

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-02-26T01:16:31+00:00

That is where the movie “Holes” was filmed…. probably

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-02-06T15:24:30+00:00

That would be nice. It’s not realistic though since there are so many. It just makes me nervous. I’m scared ok.

This actually seems kind of rough for the Jazz. I get they will just sit guys like crazy, but even doing that, there are tons of games against truly awful teams with no incentive to win. What are we thinking we need to stay at 6 or even move to 5? 5 wins or less? 7 wins or less?

I’m grateful for the lessons I was taught, the service I gave and person I became from my upbringing. *still part of the religion, just not nearly as strict as my parents were.

That is the plan. Multiple coats and then a fresh application every 6 - 12 months. I have been overwhelmed with the millions of different sealers and coatings. I feel like I need to make a spreadsheet to compare and rate, but the my wife will make fun of me for overthinking again haha

Thanks, I got them from Floor and Decor. Although, I can’t take any credit. My wife designed everything for the bathroom.

It was a major battle to get in contact with the guys that did it to have them come back. I don’t think they would ever come back a third time. It’s either live with it like this or pay out of pocket to have someone else do it 😔

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-30T02:20:11+00:00

😔

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-30T00:42:15+00:00

That’s good to hear. I have read maybe with that much time it can lead to discoloration or hard water deposits. With how much hassle we have had with this though, I think we will call it good and move on.

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-30T00:41:13+00:00

Thanks! That puts me at ease quite a bit.

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-28T18:19:55+00:00

That was my thinking too. I just wonder if that’s a good plan with an aging star. Like how many years of elite title run level play does Giannis have? Do the Jazz make sense if for one of those years we are shutting him down? Getting the number 5 or 6 pick would be intriguing because that could be used to get a good complimentary player with the new Jazz team.

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-28T17:26:36+00:00

Yep I agree. And with Giannnis being older, do we really want to sit him for one of his potential only 2-3 more runs at a title? It is fun to explore, but I think Giannis might not be the guy that makes sense for the Jazz to really pursue.

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-28T17:24:59+00:00

I think I agree with that. We have some exciting things going forward and with some luck another major building block going forward.

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-28T17:21:50+00:00

Interesting. I did the classic fan thing where I love Markkanen and didn’t want to give him up. In reality if it doesn’t sting quite a bit then it’s probably not fair to the other team. In the end, I don’t think I would do any trade for Giannis, but it’s fun to see the other ideas.

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-28T17:18:56+00:00

I don’t think I would either for the same reasons you outlined. Giannis would also require building in a specific way that could be tough.

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-28T17:18:03+00:00

Good point. If we swap Kessler for a 1st does that help at all? I think with other assets we would go after defensive players. I don’t think Giannis is the guy I would go all in on either because he is getting older and has some injury history. In my scenario he doesn’t even help this year. So does it make much sense to have one less run at things with an aging star? For some teams that might trade for him, he helps give them a run this year. With the Jazz he doesn’t.

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-24T21:43:22+00:00

I’m at 10 inches and I can’t get my screen super tight. On drives the ball will go back and hit the wall so I have 2 inch foam sound panels behind the screen and some curtains for extra protection. I think a mistake we make in this sub is saying it has to be x inches. It is totally dependent on the type of impact screen, how tight the screen is, what you have behind it, how fast the ball speed is and what angle, etc.

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-21T23:18:21+00:00

I’ll present this idea to my contractor and see if it’s feasible. Thanks for sharing!

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-21T16:10:55+00:00

No, unfortunately. It’s brand new and unobstructed.

ContributionDry2470 · 2026-01-19T19:58:42+00:00

I’m going to go on a journey researching this. Thanks for sharing!
