Golf Simulator Blackout Screen Backing
The blackout screen is an opaque backing that attaches directly to the back of your white golf impact screen. It is one of the simplest ways to get a brighter, more solid picture from the projector you already have.
Why a white impact screen needs a backing
An impact screen has to absorb full-swing golf shots, and some of the projector light that reaches it passes straight through. That light is lost to the wall behind the enclosure, and if that wall is lit, its light shows through the screen too. Either way the image looks dimmer and flatter than it should. Hanging the opaque blackout layer directly behind the screen, with as little space between the two as possible, stops the bleed-through and keeps more light on the screen face.
When to add one
The blackout backing is made for enclosures set up in rooms with ambient light: garages, basements with windows, bonus rooms and commercial bays. If the light problem is in front of the screen rather than behind it, from windows or overhead lights facing the screen, the gray SIGPRO™ Premier impact screen tackles that from the face of the screen. Many setups use both approaches.
Built like our screens
Each blackout screen is cut and sewn by Shop Indoor Golf from the same black surround fabric we use on our enclosures, and finished with double-stitched black vinyl edges, grommets around the perimeter and a hook-and-loop strip sewn in. It hangs behind your impact screen using the same ball bungees that hold the screen, with the hook-and-loop helping keep the two layers together.
Sizes
The blackout screen comes in the same 30 sizes as our impact screens, across 1:1, 4:3, 16:10 and 16:9 aspect ratios: the sizes for our SIG8, SIG10 and SIG12 enclosures, DIY build sizes and commercial enclosure sizes. Order the size that matches your golf impact screen. Have a custom-size screen? Order a custom blackout screen made to match it.
A backing, not a hitting surface
The blackout screen always hangs behind an impact screen. Never hit balls directly into it. It pairs with our SIGPRO™ Premium impact screen and our other white screens.
Warranty
The blackout screen carries the same 1-year SIG/SIGPRO limited warranty as our impact screens, against manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship, with optional extended coverage of up to 5 years at checkout.

Compare Impact Screens
The Golf Simulator Blackout Screen is an opaque backing that hangs behind a white impact screen to stop projector light bleed-through for a brighter picture. The SIGPRO™ Premier Golf Simulator Impact Screen solves ambient light with a gray face instead. The SIGPRO™ Premium is our white three-layer screen, which pairs with the blackout backing in rooms with light behind the enclosure.

A Brighter Picture From the Same Projector
Every impact screen has to absorb full-swing golf shots, and some of the projector light that reaches it passes straight through. That light is wasted on the wall behind your enclosure, and if that wall is lit, its light comes back through the screen too. The result is a dimmer, flatter picture than your projector is capable of.
The blackout screen is an opaque black backing that hangs directly behind your white impact screen. With the two layers close together, the bleed-through stops and more of the projector's light stays on the screen face, so the image looks brighter and more solid without changing the projector.
It makes the biggest difference in enclosures set up where there is ambient light: garages, basements with windows, bonus rooms and commercial bays.
Hangs With the Bungees You Already Use
Each blackout screen is cut and sewn by Shop Indoor Golf from the same black surround fabric we use on our enclosures, then finished with double-stitched black vinyl edges, grommets around the perimeter and a hook-and-loop strip sewn in.
Installation uses what your impact screen already has. The blackout hangs behind the screen on the same ball bungees, and the hook-and-loop helps hold the two layers together so the gap between them stays small. There are no extra brackets or tools.
It comes in the same 30 sizes as our impact screens, across 1:1, 4:3, 16:10 and 16:9, including the sizes for our SIG8, SIG10 and SIG12 enclosures, DIY builds and commercial enclosures. Have a custom-size screen? Order a custom blackout screen made to match it.
Blackout Backing or a Gray Screen?
Light can wash out a simulator picture from two directions, and the fix depends on which one you have. When the light comes from behind the enclosure, from a lit wall or a window behind the screen, the blackout backing stops it from showing through and keeps the projector's light on the screen face.
When the light falls on the front of the screen, from overhead fixtures or windows facing it, the gray SIGPRO™ Premier impact screen handles it by absorbing ambient light at the surface. Many setups use both.
The blackout is always a backing, never a hitting surface: it hangs behind our SIGPRO™ Premium or another white impact screen, and it carries the same 1-year SIG/SIGPRO limited warranty as our screens.
