ABSTRACT:
A compact golf ball driving range net apparatus has a rigid frame with a substantially fabric ramp 14 having a lower leading edge 60 releasably connected to a lower portion of the frame and an upper trailing edge releasably connected to an upper end of the frame. The ramp 14 curves upwardly from the leading edge 60 to the trailing edge and is supported on the frame in a substantially tensioned state. A generally cylindrical ball receiving member 12 supported generally horizontally at an upper end of the frame has a longitudinal opening 110 adjoining the ramp trailing edge for receiving a ball thereinto. Golf balls hit from an adjacent teeing area 82 impact the ramp and are guided upward thereby to enter and rotate along the interior of the ball receiving member a number of times under observation of the golfer. The path of the rotating ball indicates the manner in which it was hit.
