Hitting Mat vs Landing Pad — What's the Difference?

Hitting Mat

The surface you tee and hit from. Built to replicate fairway or rough conditions under the club — turf fibres, foam backing, tee inserts. Compact footprint, centred in your bay.

Landing Pad / Floor Mat

Covers the full bay floor. Protects hardwood and concrete, softens the feel underfoot, and stops the hitting mat from shifting mid-swing. Paired with a hitting mat for a complete floor solution.

Putting Turf

Designed specifically for putting — true roll surface, cup cutouts, realistic green feel. Complements a hitting mat for a full short-game practice setup in one room.

HomeCourse Landing Pad for Golf Simulator

HomeCourse Landing Pad for Golf Simulator

9ft × 5ft · Artificial Turf · Fits ProScreen 180 Enclosure

$250.00

The HomeCourse Landing Pad gives you a clean artificial turf base at a minimal price. At 9×5ft it covers the hitting zone inside a ProScreen 180 enclosure and keeps your hitting mat in place. Straightforward, purpose-fit, and the right starting point if you're building around a HomeCourse setup.

Best for:

HomeCourse ProScreen 180 owners who want a clean turf base. Also suits smaller setups where full bay coverage isn't needed — a compact studio space, practice bay, or starter build where budget matters.

SigPro Hitting Mats & Floor Pads

SigPro Softy 4x7 Golf Simulator Hitting Mat

SigPro Softy 4×7 Golf Simulator Hitting Mat

4ft × 7ft · Premium Indoor Golf Mat · Tee Line Included

$1,148.99

The 4×7 Softy is SigPro's compact hitting mat — the right size for rooms where floor space is limited or you're fitting into a tighter bay. The Softy surface replicates short-cut fairway conditions and absorbs impact without the joint fatigue that comes with harder mat surfaces. Tee pegs insert directly into the mat at driver height, mid-iron height, and low for irons off the deck.

Best for:

Smaller simulator bays and rooms where a 4×10 would be too long. Still delivers the full SigPro surface quality — same fibres, same backing — just in a form factor that fits where others don't.

SIG10 Golf Simulator Landing Pad

SIG10 Golf Simulator Landing Pad Floor Mat

10ft 7in × 8ft · Impact-Rated · Full Bay Coverage

$1,198.99

The SIG10 Landing Pad covers the full floor footprint of a SIG10 simulator bay. It's designed to sit underneath your hitting mat and anchor the entire floor setup — protecting hardwood or concrete, softening the stance, and stopping any mat movement mid-swing. Impact-rated material means it handles errant shots, divot tools, and day-to-day wear without issue.

Best for:

Anyone with a SIG10 enclosure who wants a matched floor solution. Also works as a standalone bay mat in open spaces — gyms, garages, commercial training rooms — where you want full floor coverage without an enclosure.

SigPro Softy 4×10 Golf Simulator Hitting Mat

4ft × 10ft · Premium Indoor Golf Mat · Tee Line · Full-Swing Ready

$1,318.99

The 4×10 is the benchmark hitting mat for simulator bays. Ten feet of depth gives you a full approach run from address to follow-through, which means your natural swing isn't cramped by the mat's edge. The Softy surface is engineered for feel — the kind of feedback that's close enough to turf that your swing mechanics translate outdoors. Multiple tee positions are built in for driver, mid-irons, and low off the deck. This is the mat most complete builds end up on.

Best for:

Full-swing simulator bays with enough room to use it. Standard recommendation for anyone running a complete simulator setup — the extra mat depth removes one variable from your practice environment and lets you focus on the swing, not the surface.

SigPro SIG12 Golf Simulator Floor Mat

SigPro SIG12 Golf Simulator Floor Mat

12ft × 9ft · Impact-Rated · Large Bay Coverage

$1,398.99

The SIG12 Floor Mat steps up to 12×9ft for larger bays and enclosures. At this size it fully covers the floor of a SIG12 enclosure and provides generous overhang on all sides — no exposed floor, no mat edges to catch a foot. Matched to the SIG12 enclosure it gives the cleanest finished bay floor in the lineup.

Best for:

Large bays, SIG12 enclosure owners, and commercial setups where a 10ft pad falls short. Also a strong choice for any open-plan training space where you want maximum floor coverage without enclosure walls.

Short Game — True Roll Putting Turf

Big Moss Golf Simulator Putting Turf

Big Moss Golf Simulator Putting Turf

True Roll Technology · Precut Cup Holes · Indoor Practice Green

$1,799.95

Big Moss builds putting surfaces for serious short game practice — and the simulator version is no different. True Roll Technology means the ball breaks and rolls the way it does on a real green, not the artificial skid you get from cheaper mat surfaces. Precut cup holes mean you're dropping putts, not just rolling them at a target. Set inside an enclosure or laid out as a standalone green, it gives you a short game studio in the same room as your full swing setup.

Best for:

Anyone serious about their short game who wants to practice putting at home with realistic ball roll. Works equally well in dedicated golf rooms, training studios, and any indoor space where a real putting green would be welcome — golf or otherwise. The true roll surface makes it a step above anything you'd find in a sports store.

Frequently Asked Questions

What hitting mat is best for a golf simulator?

The SigPro Softy 4×10 is the most popular hitting mat for simulator bays — it's long enough for a full swing and follow-through, the Softy surface gives realistic feedback, and it's built to handle daily use. For smaller rooms the SigPro 4×7 gives the same surface quality in a compact footprint.

Do I need a landing pad as well as a hitting mat?

A landing pad covers the full bay floor beneath and around the hitting mat — it protects your floor, anchors the hitting mat, and softens the feel underfoot. For a complete bay setup, pair a SigPro hitting mat with a SIG10 or SIG12 landing pad matched to your enclosure size.

How thick should a golf simulator hitting mat be?

Thicker mats absorb more impact and reduce joint stress, which matters if you're hitting daily. SigPro Softy mats use a foam-backed construction that cushions the strike without sacrificing feedback. Avoid thin rubber-backed mats for simulator use — they transmit too much shock.

Can you put a hitting mat on hardwood floors?

Yes, but use a landing pad underneath to prevent the mat from shifting and to protect the floor surface. The SIG10 and SIG12 pads are designed for this — they grip the floor and give the hitting mat a stable base on any hard surface.
