By shop
How much should a mat cost?
Compare the mat and its size, not just the shop’s starting price.
The Indoor Golf Shop listed mats from $274 to $1,800 on October 19, 2026. That broad range makes its median more useful than its starting price when setting a budget.
GolfBays had a narrower selection, with a $339 median on the same date. Shop medians describe different stocked products, not price differences for the same mat.

By size
Does a larger mat cost more?
A larger footprint does not always mean a higher price.
Across the four shops on October 19, 2026, options around 5 × 5 ft had a $439 median. That was below the median for smaller rectangular options, so size alone does not explain price.
The table rounds product names and size options to the nearest foot. Use it to narrow the budget, then confirm exact dimensions before marking the mat’s position on your floor.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| about 5 × 4 ft | 4 | $274 | $670 | $800 |
| about 5 × 5 ft | 4 | $329 | $439 | $549 |

What do different budgets buy?
Use these examples as price and footprint references, not performance rankings.
The GolfBays Standard Hitting Mat was listed by GolfBays at $329 on October 19, 2026. It gives a lower-end reference point without treating the lowest catalog price as the default choice.
The SIGPRO Softy 4' x 10' Golf Mat was listed by The Indoor Golf Shop at $1,200 on the same date. Its longer footprint needs more floor space; price alone does not establish comfort or durability.

By maker
Which makers have more stocked choices?
Brand medians are budget markers, not like-for-like comparisons.
The four-shop catalog check on October 19, 2026 found 12 SIG listings, compared with 2 each for TrueStrike and GolfBays. A larger selection offers more prices to compare, not evidence of better performance.
The maker table groups products rather than matching identical sizes. Check the footprint alongside the price before using a brand median as your spending target.
| Maker | In stock | Lowest | Median | Highest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SIG (The Indoor Golf Shop) | 12 | $530 | $920 | $1,800 |
| TrueStrike | 2 | $1,098 | $1,143 | $1,188 |
| GolfBays | 2 | $329 | $339 | $349 |
Room and setup
How does thickness affect room fit?
Mat thickness raises the golfer. The calculator adds that thickness to the swing-clearance estimate; the estimate is this site’s model, not a measurement or a promise of a safe swing.
Check ceiling clearance from the mat surface. Plan screen clearance and projector position separately in your room setup, then check with slow swings first. Ceiling and ball-rebound protection remain the owner’s call.
Account for the raised stance before deciding that the ceiling clears.

Readers ask
Answers use the makers’ figures and the dated prices on this page.
How much do golf simulator mats cost?
Listings at The Indoor Golf Shop, Rain or Shine Golf, PlayBetter and GolfBays ranged from $274 to $1,800 on October 19, 2026. The median was $770.
What size golf simulator mat should I buy?
Choose a footprint that fits the planned hitting position, then confirm the product’s exact dimensions. The size table uses rounded dimensions, so it is a budget comparison rather than a guide to exact placement.
Does golf simulator turf include all the flooring?
Do not assume a hitting-mat price includes surrounding flooring. The Indoor Golf Shop lists matching landing-pad turf as a separate enclosure add-on.
Does mat thickness affect simulator ceiling height?
Yes. The mat raises your stance, and the calculator adds its thickness to this site’s swing-clearance estimate. Check with slow swings first.
