Our take on the The Net Return Mini Net

The Net Return Mini Net is a 5-by-6-foot golf practice net with an aluminum frame that will not rust and UV-treated commercial-grade netting. It returns the ball to your feet after each shot and is rated for ball speeds up to 225-250 MPH. At 24 lbs with a duffle bag included, it moves easily between garage, yard and range. It is the smaller sibling of The Net Return's full-size nets, sized for tight spaces.

Questions and answers

Is the Mini Net big enough for a driver?
It is 5 feet wide and 6 feet high, which works for irons and wedges. Taller players hitting driver may want The Net Return's larger models for more clearance.
Does the ball really come back to you?
Yes. The net is shaped to absorb the shot and roll the ball back toward your feet, so you do not chase balls between swings.
Can it stay outside in the rain?
The aluminum frame will not rust and the netting is UV-treated and weather resistant. Leaving it out long-term will still wear the net faster than storing it in the included duffle bag.
How fast a ball can it stop?
The listing rates it for ball speeds up to 225-250 MPH, well above what most amateur swings produce.
How long does setup take?
Owners describe assembly as quick, with the frame and net going together in minutes and the whole thing breaking down into the duffle bag.
Is it worth the price over a cheap practice net?
The case for it is the rust-proof frame, ball return and commercial-grade netting. If you only need an occasional backyard net, a cheaper model may do; for regular practice, owners say the build justifies it.
