The 6 Best Golf Cages

This wiki has been updated 24 times since it was first published in November of 2018. Practice makes perfect, but for most golfers, life’s obligations get in the way of spending as much time at the driving range or on the course as we’d like. With one of these cages, you’ll have the freedom to work on your swing in the comfort of your own home or backyard. It’s easy to improve your drive and polish your chipping skills when you don’t have to worry about errant balls wreaking havoc. When users buy our independently chosen editorial picks, we may earn commissions to help fund the Wiki.

1. Galileo Training

The Galileo Training (about $339) is lighter than most models, making it a bit more versatile without sacrificing anything in terms of stability or durability. The robust nylon netting can take repeated poundings, so go ahead and get your driver out as often as you like.

2 size options to choose from
Backed by a lifetime warranty
Setup is quick and straightforward

2. Dura-Pro Velocity

From the netting to the frame corners, everything about the Dura-Pro Velocity (around $282) is heavy-duty and high-performance. You do have to purchase your own metal poles prior to assembly, but once you’re out there hitting balls, you’ll know it was worth it.

Net tightness is easy to adjust
Includes a vinyl hitting target
Backup net provides extra protection

3. Net World Professional

Stability is the name of the game with the Net World Professional (appx. $550) — a strong gust of wind or a hard-hit ball won’t be enough to shift this beast. It’s constructed for use in all seasons, so there’s no excuse for letting your skills deteriorate.

Frame will not rust or corrode
Netting is treated to resist uv rays
Easy-to-move freestanding design

4. Golf Practice 77Tech

It’s tough to replicate a beautiful day out on the links, but with the Golf Practice 77Tech (around $389) and its rich green color, you can at least use your imagination to make it feel that way. Put it up outdoors or indoors, wherever is most convenient.

Components are water resistant
Foam-covered poles prevent rebounds
Setup instructions are rather poor

5. Select Golf Target

Depending on how much space you have available, the Select Golf Target (appx. $239) allows you to choose from a 20-foot or a 10-foot frame. The heavy-duty archery netting will keep balls contained, even for those of you who can really crank it.

Suitable for baseball or soccer too
Strong steel corners
Does not come with poles

UNDER REVIEW

This item has been flagged for editorial review and is not available.

6. Cimarron Masters

The frame corners that hold the Cimarron Masters (appx. $259) together are built to last, which makes this a serviceable option if you’re setting up an outdoor practice area. The frame poles are not included, though, so you’ll have to purchase those separately.

Durable weather-resistant netting
Highly visible target stripe
Assembly is complicated
