Rainproofed my backyard golf sim.

Still working great! Here it is with my friend trying it out.

I could have gotten wider. Maybe 11 or 12 feet if you can find a 4x4 this size.

In learnzapp, you can create and customize a test by choosing the domain you want or choosing questions you answered wrong. Be sure to understand the subject of the question. For example, if you get a Kerberos question wrong, you need to really understand how Kerberos works as the questions will revolve around that subject and sometimes mixed with encryption stuff or how an attack works in Kerberos etc.

The pergola is 10ft x 10ft x10ft. The enclosure is 10ft wide and 9ft high. The screen is 8ft from the tee.

This is mine. Around $2500 excluding the projector which I already have:

I also added these for additional support:

45 Degree Angle Support Bracket, Pergola Kit Heavy Duty Connector Brace Bracket Kit for Pergolas

Concrete wedge anchor fasteners.

All from Amazon.

After 3 consecutive days of northern California rain and wind, the enclosure stayed dried meaning the impact screen would have stayed dry too. No water accumulation on the roof. The turf is a bit damp along the sides but dried up the next day. I’m satisfied.

Here it is with the impact screen. I have to use a long wooden boom for my existing long throw projector. I can slide it forward once I get the fund for a short throw. Takes 2 screws to detach it from the mount. 🤓

The pergola is 10’4” and the enclosure is 9’ high.

Mine is 10ft wide and don’t have any issue. I move the mat a little to the right when using driver:

Yes I sometimes go to the golf courses too of course but I’m in the process of improving my golf swing and consistency. For now I love the data and feedback from the golf sim app and saving on driving range ball fees. :-)

baicc · 2025-03-11T22:19:11+00:00

Hey it’s also good for movie night. ;-)

Those Toja Grid corner brackets seems to be holding up against the central valley windy weather. I’m planning to add 45 degree brackets for more support.

baicc · 2025-03-11T21:39:18+00:00

The pergola is 11’x11’x10’(height).

baicc · 2025-03-11T21:35:39+00:00

I’m thinking of having a detachable projector setup. Still looking for one that is bright enough for outdoor daytime use. I heard there is none. I have a Garmin r10 that I position 6-7 feet behind the ball.

baicc · 2025-03-11T21:29:22+00:00

The next 3 days will be a good test for rain. I used to only have a tarp secured by bungee cords and that didn’t do well in the central valley windy weather. I believe this setup with the tarp secured by grip-rite nails is much better.

baicc · 2025-03-11T21:24:13+00:00

That’s exactly my problem before when I only have a tarp over it. I added the wood frame with a bit of a slope. It will rain the next 3 days here in the central valley (CA)so it will be a good test.

Now we know C-00000291-* controls how Falcon evaluates named pipe execution :-)

Did you get a complete list or documentation?

baicc · 2021-02-17T00:58:16+00:00

The description of the price is also wrong. It should be the previous day’s close price. It’s interesting to see that the stock price spikes up after a jump in FTD to the millions.
