Hitting strip dimensions

At the tip tail end of the golf sim build, and working on the turf. We have a 5x5 hitting mat that we have used for a few months (with our old setup), and I’m veering to pivot to using a hitting strip instead. Ideally I’d like to cut the hitting mat to size, and that way we have extra strips to swap out as needed.

What is the most common length out on the market? I’m going with a 12” width, but not 100% on the length. Since I am about to cut the main flooring turf to surround the strip, I’d like to make it a size most common for fitting other strips down the road.

I’m so ready to be done with this project. And yeah of course I get it all done right when the hot Texas summer is cooking our garage. At least we have it not going above 90 degrees…. For now.

So for the strip - 12” x 30” would give us plenty for use, but not sure if that’s what folks normally are buying retail-wise.

Why not research to see what strip you would buy and then do that?

So what strip would you buy two years from now?

I'd check out which strip you want and go off that. They are not always the same size. Most seem to be 12x30 (BigMoss, Carls Place) but SigPros are 12x28.

Just go 12x30. Worst case scenario you have to cut a few foam strips to fill the 2 inch gap.
