The smallest HotShot: 4 ft deep, 5 ft long and 1-3/4 in thick, with a 12 by 30 inch hitting strip that lifts out and is replaced when it wears. You choose the strip when you buy. With the Standard strip it is $499.95 at Indoor Golf Outlet; the Foam Divot strip, which Carl's says is easier on wrists and elbows, makes it $649.95, and the Gel Divot strip, which Carl's says plays most like fairway turf, $699.95. Only the Standard strip takes a real tee, through three pre-cut holes for tee receivers. On the 4×5 the strip sits at one end, so there is a stance area on one side only; the 4×9 and 6×10 put the strip in the middle with room to stand on either side. That makes this a one-player mat for a tight bay. In the same footprint the Country Club Elite 4×5 is $479: one continuous turf surface that takes a real tee anywhere, with no strip to replace.

Who this is for

Honest match per persona.

Good for

  • Cost-Effective Buyer

    $499.95 buys the HotShot's replaceable strip in its smallest size: when the hitting area wears you replace the strip, not the mat. The Country Club Elite 4×5 is $479 for one continuous surface with nothing to replace.

  • Space-Constrained

    5 ft long and 4 ft deep, the smallest HotShot. It needs a flat, permanent spot, but not much of one.

Not for

  • Family Setup

    The strip sits at one end, so there is a stance on one side only. A household with left- and right-handed players is better served by the 4×9 or 6×10, which put the strip in the middle.

  • Showroom

    A compact strip-and-surround mat. A showroom bay is better served by a full-stance surface such as the Country Club Elite 5×10 or the Fiberbuilt Studio.
