A portable net device for stopping the flight of projectiles such as golf
balls comprises a coilable main member and a coilable base member
respectively formed in closed loops, a main sleeve substantially covering
the coilable main member wherein the main sleeve has a top hole and a main
node cross-opposing the top hole, a fabric portion radially extending from
the main sleeve for flexibly stopping the flight of projectiles such as
golf balls, a base sleeve substantially covering the coilable base member
wherein the base sleeve has a bottom hole and a base node cross-opposing
the bottom hole, and a means for supporting the main member at a
substantially erected position.
