The complete at home hitting mat that protects your joints and teaches true ball-first contact
The hitting mat is the most important part of your home practice.
You can own a TrackMan, a premium net and the perfect at-home setup—but if you're hitting off a mat that doesn't behave like real turf, every practice session is built on the wrong foundation.
That's why we didn't just make the mat softer. We engineered the 3D FlexCell system.
Catch a shot slightly heavy, and the surface compresses on impact — absorbing shock and taking the stress off your wrists and elbows. At the same time, it stays firm enough to preserve realistic turf interaction and honest feedback through the strike.
The goal isn't to make every shot feel good. It's to make the right shots feel right—and the bad ones feel like they would on the golf course.
Less stress on your joints. More confidence that your practice transfers to the course.

No wrist or joint pain
Cheap golf mats are one of the most common causes of wrist and elbow pain during practice. When the club hits a hard surface, the impact travels straight back into your joints. Our hitting strip is built differently.
Beneath the turf sits a 3D shock-absorption layer that compresses on impact, allowing the club to move through the surface instead of abruptly stopping.
This absorbs the harsh shock that normally stresses your wrists and elbows, so you can hit hundreds of balls while getting realistic turf interaction — without the joint pain.
Practice that actually transfers to the course
The way the club interacts with the ground is a huge part of ball striking. When the turf reacts naturally to your swing, clean strikes feel pure and mistakes are easy to recognize. This kind of feedback is what helps golfers improve their contact and consistency.
Our hitting strip is designed to allow the club to move through the turf more naturally, giving you the kind of feedback you would expect from real fairway grass. When you practice with realistic turf interaction, the swing you build at home is the same swing you take to the course.
Easy to add to your practice setup
If you enjoy a bit of DIY, the hitting strip is easy to integrate into your setup. You can cut a hole into your existing mat and drop the strip in, or simply place it at the edge of your mat or practice area and build your setup around it.
If you’d rather skip the DIY altogether, you can choose the complete setup with our EVA base mat, which already includes a perfectly sized insert for the hitting strip.
Either way, it’s a simple way to upgrade the part of your practice setup that actually affects your swing.

Cut a hole in an old mat, and put this in it, looking forward to buying the mat that it’s meant to fit in. Had bent a few iron shaft tips on the previous mat, am very confident it won’t happen with this one, due to how think it is and the hollow section below the artificial grass makes it feel much better than the old one.
It is exactly as advertised. It’s a soft grass with a little bounce. No harsh feedback. Definitely gives you fat shot feedback. I cut my worn mat and tucked this in perfectly. Had it for many rounds now and couldn’t be more pleased. Would buy again if this ever wears out but I have doubts it ever will. Worth the money just to protect your wrists.
As former PGA member trying to get his game back after career change 30 years ago, I honestly feel this is going to cut a few strokes for me for my chipping from light rough.
As a former A8 (PGA member assistant pro). I can attest to the quality and realism of this insert. I had GoSportsPro. This solves the unrealistic feedback issue. If you hit behind it, the mat gives you realistic tug. Fantastic system. I have the 3 hitting inserts and plan to get the sand!!!
John Menke former A-8 New Jersey Section
Awesome insert. High quality works as advertised! Fits perfectly in the big mat. I think shipping issues are over. I just got mine today. Perfect fit!!
The Swingwerks hitting strip has brought my old mat back to life and saved me from having to replace the entire mat. The strip is of high quality and much better than my original mat, even when it was new. I would often get pain in my shoulders after using my old mat but I haven't experienced that after installing the strip. One sign of its absorption is when I drop a ball on it from hip height it only bounces about a 1/2 inch where the ball will bounce several inches on the old mat. I couldn't be happier with the strip.
Such a different experience to be hitting from this vs my Amazon mat. You know it for sure when you hit it fat which is nice but not in a way where it hurts or anything. Definitely looking at getting the other hitting strips as well!
My left wrist has been super unpredictable for the past 2 years, I've got the bug and where I'm from we don't have many grass ranges so been practicing on mats and it's taken it's toll... Now that I got this Trueturf hitting strip and have been practicing my swing at home I honestly can say the wrist pain is gone. And I'm so glad because I thought it could've been chronic.
Appreciate the cushioning and the performance of the turf. Only negative is the wax coating that wears on the club. Overall I’d recommend for anyone looking for less impact on the body. Good product!
I’ve been having wrist pain from my previous hitting pad but since I started using this pad the pain is gone. Love it and very responsive to strikes so you know if you struck it correctly.
Arrived in timely manner. Comfortable to stand on. Inserts interaction with irons better than other mats I have used in the past at out of doors ranges and four different indoor hitting studios.
Like the larger mat this sits in; there isn't a better mat on the market. I've owned a few and they always tear within a few swings or move nonstop. I will be adding the rough insert next as this company is amazing. The mat feels like the real thing and I get great feedback on miss hits.
I bought a couple of previous mats, and this one is by far the best I've used. The difference is the thickness of the mat. Will always support this company's products.
To be honest, I can't really tell the difference between my normal mat, and this new piece I put in. Maybe a tad softer, it also sticks up 1/4" higher.
Fast shipping. Cut it in to my mat! Started hitting golf balls. Feels great hitting off of the mat. No soreness and my wrists didn't hurt the next morning. Would purchase this again
