I made one out of wood and netting , I'm only hitting lightweight balls in to it though.

I was just thinking of buying one, now I can’t believe I didn’t think of making one!
I had one a few years back at the old house, I erected it too close to the fencing at the end of the garden and destroyed the panels behind it 
Just ordered one said delivery is 26/28 March.
As for feed back I can certainly tell when I hit a good shot, also some foot spray on the club face for feedback and on the mat to make sure ball then turf contact.

Chuck in some slo mo video and it's a pretty useful set up.
Last Autumn the range had a huge pile of range mats for sale at £30, and they were in plenty good condition for me. I kept looking as the pile kept dwindling, and didn’t take the plunge. Regretting it now.

May be you assembled it upsidedown?
Enjoy
I would suggest purchasing an impact net or putting something were the ball hits regularly. We have been though a couple of nets over the years(ball ends up escaping in corners and were it hits the net regularly), and the balls go ping, whack, smack.
We put a bed sheet just in front of the net which worked fine, but eventually purchased an archery impact net and that is superb.

Why do you even need a net? Looks like you could fit a par 3 in your back garden.
....now I need a decent mat!

Not sure I'll be getting one...
The echo around the garden and other gardens would be horrific
Whack, thud.....whack, thud....whack, thud
That would last about 2 minutes before a bucket of water would come flying over a fence....
I'll pass
