Golf Impact screen Materials
A golf impact screen is one of the essential consumables that golf simulator business owners simply cannot overlook. Its quality directly affects the replacement cycle, and more importantly, it determines the overall immersion, durability, and image clarity of the simulator system.
A golf impact screen is not just a display surface. It must clearly project high-resolution images from the projector so that players can accurately analyze their swing and ball flight, while also providing the immersive sensation of standing on a real fairway. At the same time, it needs to withstand thousands of ball impacts with exceptional durability, minimize rebound for safety, and create a comfortable indoor golfing environment. In short, the quality of the screen can define the overall performance of the golf simulator.
However, not all screens meet these standards. Products that tear easily or have a loose weave, causing blurry projected images, can actually diminish the value of your investment.
To address these issues, our company has independently developed a high-density, heavy-weight screen fabric that delivers both durability and superior image quality. Our screen fabrics provide bright, vivid projection and outstanding tensile strength, maintaining stable quality without tearing or deformation even after repeated use. In particular, they have passed durability tests at impact speeds exceeding 200mph—well above the average swing speed of professional golfers—offering a level of reliability you can trust.
Golf Impact screen Materials – Which Material Is Right for You?
The quality of the golf impact screen is at the heart of any indoor golf simulator. More than just stopping the ball, a screen serves multiple purposes: projecting images, absorbing impact, reducing noise, and enhancing the overall ambiance of the space. There are various types of screen fabrics available on the market, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. Below is a comparison of the main screen materials offered by our company.
Introducing the newly developed AdvancePRO Silver Premium and DualPRO White/Black Premium Golf Impact Screens
In the projection and home theater market, non-white screens—such as silver and even black—have gained significant attention for their ability to enhance image quality. Golf impact screens function not only as durable impact surfaces but also as projection screens, where both surface density and color directly influence visual performance. At ScreenGolfPro, we offer three triple-layered premium screens: the traditional White, the Silver, and the versatile DualPRO White/Black.
Features:
Triple-layer structure based on high-elasticity knit fabric (3D Air Mesh)
Advantages:
High-density surface enables detailed and sharp image projection
Excellent impact absorption reduces rebound and improves safety
Minimizes noise upon impact, maintaining a comfortable indoor environment
Maintains high durability even with prolonged use
Disadvantages:
Higher price point
Natural light reflection from knit yarn
Recommended For:
Users who prioritize HD image quality or require low-noise performance in noise-sensitive environments
Features:
Triple-layer structure based on high-elasticity knit fabric + Siliver surface
Advantages:
Light Silver front – High-density surface for sharp projection with silver screen technology for vivid contrast and color
Dark Silver back – Prevents projector beam leakage and provides dark room effect
Delivers the most vivid colors and highest image quality
Excellent impact absorption reduces rebound and enhances safety
Minimizes noise upon impact, ensuring a comfortable indoor environment
Maintains high durability even with long-term use
Disadvantages:
Highest price point
Recommended For:
environments with ambient light (natural or artificial) as its design optimizes image quality by minimizing light interference.
3. DualPRO Premium Triple-Layered
Features:
Triple-layer structure based on high-elasticity knit fabric + black-and-white surface
Advantages:
White front – High-density yarn for detailed and precise image projection
Black back – Prevents projector beam leakage and provides blackout effect
Delivers the most vivid colors and highest image quality
Excellent impact absorption reduces rebound and enhances safety
Minimizes noise upon impact, ensuring a comfortable indoor environment
Maintains high durability even with long-term use
Disadvantages:
Highest price point
Recommended For:
High-end users and dedicated simulator rooms seeking both top-tier image quality and exceptional noise reduction performance
3D Air Mesh
Air mesh technical textile has a three-dimensional, or "sandwich," structure with a series of flexible, synthetic fibers that keep the front and back layers at a distance from each other, creating an air pocket.
Features:
Polyester fabric with a knit construction, combining flexibility and durability
Advantages:
Flexible material reduces rebound and enhances safety
The most widely used standard fabric in the golf simulator industry
Competitive pricing
Disadvantages:
Slight loss of image sharpness due to minor light reflection inherent to knit yarn
Recommended For:
General golf practice ranges or multipurpose spaces that value both safety and cost efficiency
Features:
Polyester fabric with a twill weave, offering high resistance to impact, friction, and abrasion
Advantages:
Exceptional durability, highly resistant to repeated impacts
High-density structure blocks light effectively, delivering vivid colors
Substantial thickness for added strength
Competitive pricing
Disadvantages:
Smooth surface and minimal spacing between fibers may make stains more noticeable
Recommended For:
General golf practice ranges or multipurpose spaces that prioritize both durability and image quality
Features:
Natural fabric with a woven structure made from a cotton–polyester blend, highly resistant to friction and abrasion
Advantages:
-
Exceptional durability, highly resistant to repeated impacts
-
High-density structure effectively blocks light, delivering vivid colors
-
Beige surface made from cotton–poly blend yarn enhances vivid color rendition and contrast in projected images and helps conceal stains
-
Competitive pricing
Disadvantages:
-
Mixed opinions among users regarding the beige surface color
Recommended For:
Users who value durability, stable impact absorption, and prefer enhanced color contrast in their screen images

Final Advice
Choosing a screen fabric should not be based solely on what is “the best,” but rather on the purpose of the space, user preferences, budget, and the overall performance of the simulator. For example, in houses or indoor environments, fabrics with enhanced noise reduction should be considered, while for business spaces or premium facilities, fabrics that deliver superior projection quality or longevity are more suitable.
By understanding the characteristics and intended use of each fabric and selecting the screen that best fits the space and equipment, you can significantly enhance not only the quality of indoor golf practice but also the overall immersion.
