Besides the golf target & size, is there a difference between this quickster and the baseball quickster net? Can this net be used for other sports?

What makes you think I purchased or have knowledge of a baseball net? Try the manufacturer

My recollection is that the nets' hole sizes are slightly different among the various Quickster nets. Depending on the sport, yes, Quicksters can be used in different sports.

Aloha Bryan,Not familiar with the baseball quickster net, but I am also using this net for soccer for my daughter. And it works well. As for baseball, I am pretty certain it would be ok too. The net seems to be pretty strong and had enough give to make sure the baseball will not roll under the net as it comes to rest. I would be feel comfortable using it for baseball. Thanks

I'm not sure, as I have not seen the baseball net. The net and the poles are pretty flexible and they "give" when the ball goes into it. The weight difference between a golf ball and a baseball would concern me, for fear the golf net might not fully contain a baseball. Without seeing the netting on the baseball one, I am just guessing.

In most cases it probably can stop a baseball although I haven't tried. The squares are about 2" so I think if you hang the net a little loose you shouldn't have any problems. But I guess it also depends on just how hard you hit that ball.

I have not tried it w/ regular balls. I currently use practice nerf balls, however, the net is strong enough of regular ones as well.

The hitting mat included with the driving net is 12 inches by 24 inches. It included 1 - 2 inch rubber tee and associated hole in mat. The mat, in my opinion, is designed for using the driver and not designed for use with clubs that would take a divot. Hope this helps

I've never used a driver with the net, usually practice with 7 - 4 irons. But I don't believe you can put a ball through this net with a driver. What I would be most concerned about is missing the net and hitting the wall behind the net. The net is a triangle shape, so a slightly stray shot can miss the net.

I think the net is way too light weight for that. After about 1,000 regular golf balls, the webbing started to fray and let balls through, so now I have a canvas target hung from the net to catch the balls. I wouldn't do that mod for baseballs, though, because I think it would still tear the net.

Haven't used mine yet but according to literature, you can use it with functionality without hitting a ball. By the way you can still hit a ball indoors by just using a net to prevent damage.

Yes, we use it for baseball all the time. We get a reading APPROX 70% of the time if used properly. "stand behind a net/fence and throw at the gun into the net/fence" if you use a catcher your reading can pick up the catcher movements.

Yes, my boys use it for Golf, Lacrosse, Hockey, and Ball. It's Great for all sports!!

Anything is possible but if you are the proper distance away from the net, you would have to miss hit really badly. I have hit over a thousand balls and never came close to missing the net. And my net shows no signs of wear. I think it is a great tool.

This product is specifically designed as a football training net. SKLZ has a multipurpose net for baseball/softball training called the SKLZ Quickster 7' x 7'. It sells for about the same price as this football training net. Checkout the SKLZ website for this baseball training net, especially the video on its multiple uses.

Real ball are not a problem if you the target cloth provided with the net. I doesn't really protect against a shank so I used "Birdie Balls"and "Almost Balls". You might be a better player so no need to worry but I heard even pros shank a shot ever so often when they working on a new shot or idea in practice.

well Abraham, this takes the same blade as all the rest of them out there, no differance !! It is however a bit bigger so has a better grip. Other than that the ball is in your court, can you pull it or not ?

I believe it only works with regular golf balls. I found the item to be worthless and returned it. But maybe that's because I'm such a poor golfer that nothing could help me?

BigShot, It is only 6 feet deep in the middle. It could actually be placed in the corner of a yard or fence. With a similar width and height I have found it plenty big to hit any club. With the high lofted wedges you may need to set up a little closer to the net, unless you hit the flopidopolis like Phil the thrill! Good net, i highly recommend it. it is my second net. The first one (made by another co.) ripped apart after several of our windy storms. To prevent that happening this time secured it with additional spikes and rope. You may want to do the same regardless of your net choice.

I bought 12x30 and wish I bought 12x50. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and it will work perfectly. It's important that you drape the net loosely so it catches the ball. Ours was up the entire winter in NY and still works beautifully.
