TrueTurf 3D Flexcell Fairway Hitting Strip
TrueTurf Fairway Hitting Strip
The hitting strip 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.
Size: 12” × 24” × 1.6”
Materials:
Premium Nylon Turf: Realistic turf fibers designed to replicate true fairway interaction and provide consistent strike feedback.
3D Flexcell Techonology: Absorbs impact and reduce harsh vibration for a more natural feel through impact.
High-Density NBR Base: Durable non-slip foundation that provides stability and support during practice sessions.

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.

“I’ve been stuck at 93-96 for 3 years. After 60 days with this mat, I shot 85 twice in one month. I love the rough module but the feedback is night and day compared to regular mats.”
“My wrists used to kill me after range sessions. This mat lets me get 50 swings in every day without any pain. And I’m actually hitting it so much better on the course.”
“I don’t have time to drive to the range every week. This lives in my garage. 15 minutes before work. That’s all I need to get my body woken up. My ball-striking has never been more consistent.”
We believe realistic feedback changes how you strike the ball.
Practice with TrueTurf for 90 days. If it doesn’t help you develop cleaner, more consistent contact in practice, return it for a full refund. Simple as that.

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.
Great forgiveness! Allows for a full swing with any club. Flop shot or compression it’s a great mat.
So far so good 👍, soon I will play some simulator courses, I've only swung a few times but I'm thinking they'll work perfectly
I added this to my existing older hitting mat- what a difference, I highly recommend . Cb’t wait to add the rough hitting pad later.
It’s the most real feeling, Matt I’ve hit on
Nice construction good feel when hitting showed up fast no joint pain
Excellent mat! Very responsive.
Great hitting mat easy on my wrist and very affordable
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.
Very easy to install and incorporate them into my current hitting mat. It sure makes a difference using my irons, fairway woods and hybrids.
Excellent product, very durable so far and we will be ordering again when we need to replace!!
Combination mat with specific design hitting strip is ideal practice environment
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
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!
Amazing quality and feels good!!
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.
The insert is very nice. Way better than a $400 different brand I paid for last year that we all disliked
Looks great and has plenty of forgiveness with the cushion it supplies. No more sore wrist after hitting 150 balls a night.
Ooo
Excellent hitting mat. Great for the wrists would definitely recommend. Hopefully they will get the 4’x5’ mat back in stock!
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.
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.
Nice turf. Has been easier on my hands, wrists and elbows. Appears to be well made. Ask me again after 1000 balls.
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
No complaints. Works great with the mat
So far I really like the feel of this mat. I have used many different types and this mat feels very true. You cant beat the price, I would definitely recommend this hitting mat
High quality
I knew that the matt would not feel like actual fairway turf, but, also knew it will "save" my arms, and not cause loft and lie damage to my irons.
The new hitting mat is great! Feels more lifelike and doesn't hurt my hands.
It would be nice to get the rest of the order before asking for a review.
Fast service with excellent results!
I’m not happy that the “grass” on your mat immediately leaves green residue on my club sole. This means I will go through it very quickly, at least as far as “real feel” contact goes.
I have hit off many different mats and this, by far, is the best one I’ve used. You can feel when you hit it fat but it doesn’t crank your wrist like a lot of them do. Doesn’t leave a bunch of residue on my clubs either. Great product so far. I’ve had it about a week now and hit an average of 100 balls a day and so far it looks just as it did when I got it. Also, love the way it was packaged and shipped flat and not all rolled up so you have to let it rest and become flat again.
Really nice mat. Seems to help with my golfers elbow I have developed hitting off inferior mats. Thank you!
One of the best hitting mats I've used! Feels super great even after long sessions!
Great so far!
I like the smaller size mat. It is easy to manage and carry so that I can immediately lay it on my driveway and begin chipping or pitching. It is very thick and absorbing and doesn’t leave marks on the bottom of my golf clubs like other mats I have purchased . I also use it with my net. The only downside is that I can’t put a tee in mat. I got it a few weeks ago and I am enjoying it.
Cutout spot from the old mat for the swingwetks and wrists don’t hurt anymore.
Practice from imperfect lies at home. Simulates rough conditions so you can build cleaner contact and better recovery shots.
See exactly how you're swinging at impact so you can fix the pattern and stop guessing.
A stable base that holds any TrueTurf module in place. Solid underfoot, easy to swap.
