All of the above are mesh fibers. That is the fibers of the material are woven together to form a layer that looks swing optix rather like a fishing net when it’s close up. It’s actually very easy to create a mesh structure from man made fabrics and the woven structure adds strength to the impact screen.

Basically, it provides the same kind of stopping power as a football net does for a football. Each individual fiber in the mesh can stretch a little, absorb the impact and then return to its original position without distorting (at least, in theory – over time, all of these mesh fibers will distort to some extent and in general, the cheaper the fiber, the faster this will happen).

One thing you will notice is that a polyester mesh has a certain fiber-like texture to it which is slightly rough to the touch, whereas nylon mesh is very much silky smooth.

What Color Should My Impact Screen Be?

Assuming that you’re going to be projecting an image on it, then the best color is going to be a bright and clean white.The majority of impact screens come in this color as a default option, but I did find some manufacturers that sold a range of color choices, some archery baffle nets are green!

If you’re not projecting on to the screen, then it really doesn’t matter very much, and you can choose whichever color you think will look best with your setup.
