Bullseye 3D Hitting Strip Review
Quick summary· AI-generated
The Bullseye 3D is a premium hitting strip designed for steep angle-of-attack golfers, featuring a firm woven nylon surface over 3D shock-absorbing mesh and rubber base. Bomgren praises its realistic fairway feel and feedback, positions it as addressing common joint-damage and swing-feedback issues with lower-quality mats, and compares it directly to SIGPRO Softy. Pricing ranges $169–439 depending on size, and the strip fits into standard combo mat frames. The review emphasizes that mat choice is underrated relative to launch monitors and projectors in simulator builds.

Frequently Asked Questions
I’ve been using the Bullseye 3D Hitting Strip in my simulator for several months now, and it’s earned itself a permanent spot. If you’ve been shopping for a hitting strip and keep seeing Bullseye come up in forums and build threads, I can tell you the reputation is well-earned — but let’s break down exactly what I like about it and if this hitting strip will suit your needs.
The hitting surface is one of the most underrated decisions in any home golf simulator build. Most people agonize over launch monitors and projectors and then throw down whatever mat comes bundled with their enclosure. That’s a mistake. A bad hitting surface causes real joint damage on heavy strikes and gives you feedback that trains your swing in the wrong direction. If you plan to put serious volume through your simulator, this decision matters more than almost anything else in your setup.
What Is The Bullseye 3D Hitting Strip?
The Bullseye 3D is a premium hitting strip made by Bullseye Golf Sims, a Canadian company that has quietly built a strong following in the simulator community. The “3D” refers to the construction: a tight, short-blade woven nylon turf sits on top of a 3D shock-absorbing mesh layer, which acts like a spring to absorb impact energy. Below that is a premium rubber base that grips whatever surface you’re mounting it on.
It’s available in multiple sizes — I tested the 12″ x 36″ insert size, which drops directly into most standard combo mat frames — and comes in at roughly $169-439 USD depending on size, making it one of the more affordable premium strips on the market.
Bullseye makes three strips in total: the original, the Soft Strike, and this 3D. The 3D is the firmest of the three and is specifically designed for players with a steep angle of attack. If you drive the club into the turf, the 3D bounces back rather than grabbing your club head. This has been my problem using mats like the SIGPRO Softy, especially when hitting shorter wedge shots without much clubhead speed.
Does It Feel Realistic?
The first thing I noticed stepping onto the 3D is that it’s firmer than I expected. It simulates a tight lie — think a well-mown fairway or a firm links turf — rather than the softer, more cushioned feel of something…
