Beaver Tail Hitting Strip

A premium golf simulator hitting strip designed to deliver more realistic turf interaction, more honest shot feedback, and better long-term comfort than harsh range-style mats.

How Does the Beaver Tail Hitting Strip Differ from Others?

The Beaver Tail Hitting Strip is built with 1 inch of high-quality turf on top of a thick specialty foam layer that compresses during impact to better mimic the feeling of taking a divot. That added compression helps create more realistic turf interaction and more truthful feedback on every shot.

Unlike overly firm driving range mats that can let heavy shots bounce through and still feel acceptable, the Beaver Tail is designed to be more honest. If you catch a shot fat, you will feel it in a way that better reflects real on-course turf interaction.

It is also designed with long practice sessions in mind. Compared to cheaper, harsher hitting surfaces, the Beaver Tail can help reduce some of the repetitive strain that simulator practice can place on elbows, wrists, and shoulders.

Is a High-Quality Hitting Strip Really That Important?

Absolutely. Your hitting strip is one of the most important parts of your golf simulator setup, right alongside the launch monitor. A quality strip helps deliver more believable feedback, a better overall practice experience, and stronger long-term value from your simulator.

With a solid hitting strip and a reliable launch monitor, you can build an excellent simulator even if you choose to DIY some of the surrounding components. But without a quality strike surface, your results can become misleading and your simulator sessions can be less useful over time.

Many golfers have experienced range mats that make fat shots feel better than they really were. The club bounces, the shot still gets airborne, and suddenly you think you flushed it. The Beaver Tail is designed to avoid that kind of false feedback.

Can You Find Cheaper Hitting Strips Than the Beaver Tail?

Absolutely, but you usually get what you pay for. Lower-cost hitting strips may work for a while, but they often fall short in the areas that matter most: realistic feedback, durability, and long-term comfort.

If your goal is to build a simulator setup that feels better, holds up longer, and gives you more useful practice sessions, investing in a premium hitting strip can make a major difference.
