We live in the Baltimore area and there are a lot of places to shoot/play LAX but to be able to shoot full speed/strength in the convenience of the backyard is a game changer! Actually not that bad to set up(by yourself), it has good coverage and definitely can absorb a full speed shot (eldest son is 5’11” 175 and shoots in the mid to high 80’s). I will say though, shipping took longer than expected but it has been worth the wait.
