A direct-fit replacement impact screen for the Albatross 13S enclosure, built from the same 4K Ultra HD triple-layer, low-bounce construction as the standard screen — in a high contrast gray face that deepens blacks, rejects ambient light, and gives the projected course more depth and color separation. It is the same gray screen material used on the PRO Series 12x9, sized to the Albatross 13 frame.
Built for Full-Swing Impact and a Clean Image
4K Ultra HD Screen Face
A fine, tight-weave projection surface that holds sharp detail from 1080p and 4K short-throw projectors without visible texture at hitting distance.
Triple-Layer Construction
Three bonded layers absorb ball energy, resist wear at the strike zone, and hold up to full-swing driver speeds in a home bay.
Low-Bounce Performance
Energy is absorbed rather than returned, so balls drop near the screen instead of rebounding toward the hitting area.
Sized for the Albatross 13
Built to the Albatross 13S screen dimensions and 16:9 format, so the projected image lines up with the enclosure opening the way it did from the factory.
Bungee + Hook-and-Loop Mounting
Attaches to the frame with bungee cords, and the enclosure’s velvet hook-and-loop flaps close over the top and sides for a seamless border.
High Contrast Gray Face
The gray surface lowers the black level of the image, so shadows, sky, and course detail read with more depth — especially in rooms with some ambient light.
White or High Contrast Gray for the Albatross 13
Both screens share the same triple-layer, low-bounce construction and fit the Albatross 13S the same way. The difference is the screen face — and how it handles brightness, contrast, and room light.
Triple-Layer White
- Maximum image brightness
- Best in fully darkened rooms
- Ideal for lower-lumen projectors
- Standard screen shipped with the Albatross 13
High Contrast Gray
- Deeper blacks and stronger contrast
- Better ambient light rejection
- Richer color and course depth
- Best match for bright 4K laser projectors

Swap the Screen in Four Steps
No tools and no frame disassembly. Two people make tensioning the screen easier.
- Disconnect the bungee cords and open the velvet hook-and-loop flaps around the existing screen.
- Remove the old screen and lay the new screen face-up, oriented with the top edge toward the top rail.
- Attach the new screen to the frame with bungee cords, starting at the top corners, then the sides, then the bottom.
- Even out tension across the screen so the surface is flat and wrinkle-free, then close the velvet flaps over the edges.

Will this screen fit my Albatross 13S enclosure?
Yes. This screen is built to the Albatross 13S screen dimensions and 16:9 format and mounts to the existing frame with bungee cords. It is not sized for the Birdie 10, Eagle 12, or Albatross 13 interchangeably — choose the screen that matches the enclosure model.
What is the difference between the white and high contrast gray screens?
Both use the same 4K Ultra HD, triple-layer, low-bounce construction. White reflects the most light for the brightest image and suits darker rooms and lower-lumen projectors. High contrast gray lowers the black level for deeper contrast and richer color, and handles ambient light better. The gray screen is $599.99; the white screen is $499.99.
Which screen should I choose for my projector?
Bright 4K laser projectors, such as the BenQ AK700ST, pair well with high contrast gray because there is plenty of light to spare. For lower-lumen projectors or rooms that cannot be fully darkened and still need maximum brightness, white is the safer choice. The Projector Fitment Tool helps confirm projector placement for the bay.
Can I switch from the white screen to the gray screen?
Yes. The gray screen is a direct swap for the factory white screen on the Albatross 13S. No frame changes are needed.
What is included?
One replacement impact screen. The enclosure frame, velvet surround, bungee cords, projector, and hitting mat are not included.
How is the screen installed?
Disconnect the bungees and open the velvet flaps, remove the old screen, then bungee the new screen to the frame starting at the top corners. Even out tension until the surface is flat and close the velvet flaps over the edges.
Is the screen low bounce?
Yes. The triple-layer construction absorbs ball energy so balls drop near the screen rather than rebounding toward the golfer.
Can I hit real golf balls into it?
Yes. The screen is built for full-swing impact with real golf balls in a home simulator bay.
When should I replace my impact screen?
Replace the screen when ball marks, stretching, holes, or wear at the strike zone start to show in the projected image or affect ball response.
