Abstract/Contents:Explains that the Mississaugua Golf & Country Club was forced to erect protective barrier netting around its driving range by the City of Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. States that "work was completed in September [2006] on a major barrier netting project at the golf course which will adequately contain even the longest or most off-target practice shots." Explains that "the massive amounts of netting required in a typical driving range application requires ample structural integrity which is provided by an array of support poles spaced 50 feet apart." States that "the netting is a polyethylene monofilament material which has a lifespan of about 20 years."
