Foam Flex Hitting Strip Review - Initial Review and Thoughts
We tested the Foam Flex hitting strip upgrade that goes with the Carls HotShot golf sim hitting mat system and loved it! This review covers everything you wanted to know about the Foam Flex hitting strip from Carls Place and answers the question if this is the hitting strip for you. We compare it to the Gel-Touch strip and the Fiberbuilt Grass series hitting strip to help you decide if this hitting strip is right for you.

    Do you recommend the Hotshot + Foam Flex over the Fiberbuilt prefer mat?

    • @playsimgolf
      @playsimgolf 29 дней назад

      Jury is still out to be honest. I really really like the foam flex strip, hits great, putts roll pure and no pain or injury. I am not sure how durable and long lasting it will be compared to the fiberbuilt. I also took one star off of the foam flex because it does not take a real tee nor does it have a spot for a semi-permanent tee like the fiberbuilt does which is super nice. If I had to pick just one today to build a brand new golf sim with, I go with the Carls HotShot + Foam Flex strip.

  • @alcc4964

    Not sure why it needs to be $280., especially if it doesn’t last. How many swings before it deteriorates? Warranty? That may help justify the price.

    After a few weeks, you still recommending the Foam strip over Gel and standard version?

    • @playsimgolf
      @playsimgolf Месяц назад

      My answer is yes for most all of us the foam flex is the way to go. It is slightly punishing where as the gel strip is fully punishing. If you want to play on the hardest level, go with the gel-touch. We have settled in on the Foam Flex in our simulator. I'm going to use it for the next 6 months and then do a proper durability review and recap then of what I think, but so far I really like it.

    • @playsimgolf
      @playsimgolf Год назад

      Yeah for sure - especially off to the right in my sim. We are all right handers and shanks off to the right are a real thing. If I had drywall to protect off to the right I would need a better protection solution than what you see in my setup here with just some moving blankets on the wall. I do not believe we have had any balls fire off to the left wall however so if that happened to be the only side that needed protecting for us, it would be no big deal if we didn't put anything in there and most likely never get hit. Depends on the skill levels of the golfers as well lol.

    Hi! Love your set up. I'm installing the Carl's Premium screen this afternoon for my garage sim. Did you happen to use any blankets or mattress/mattress toppers behind your screen? Or can I get away with just leaving a little over a foot or so so it doesn't hit the wall? Thanks for any advice!

    • @playsimgolf
      @playsimgolf Год назад

      I did not use any blankets or mattress toppers behind the screen. You just need about a foot of space behind it so it can absorb the impact. I did place some blankets at the bottom behind my screen to catch any wormburners that happened to get underneath - but that hasn't been an issue since I raised my ramp up a little bit to cover the bottom of the screen.

      @JasonSpry Год назад

      There is a difference between the front side and the back side. I suppose you could do that but the image would allegedly be much worse. There is a difference in sides of the screen for sure. I think a better option would be go get a 4'-5' wide strip of impact screen material and hang it directly over the main impact zone. I'm researching some of those unique solutions now.

    • @playsimgolf
      @playsimgolf Год назад

      I try and use minimal bungee cords across the bottom and sides. Just enough to keep the screen tight enough to look good but loose enough to absorb shots and kill most of the bounce back.

  • @BigShay1977
    @BigShay1977 Год назад

    How far are you hitting from and how is your bounce back? My bounce back is still kinda forceful with the driver from 9 feet away. I have half the bungies removed as they recommended.

    • @playsimgolf
      @playsimgolf Год назад

      I'm almost exactly 10 feet from my impact screen. Bounce back is very minimal. Almost all of my shots hit the screen and fall down and roll back towards the hitting zone. Hardly no bounce backs at all. How wide is your screen? Maybe remove some of the bungees on the bottom and let the screen hang a little more freely.

    • @playsimgolf
      @playsimgolf Год назад

      Yes, for sure. However the really hard hit sky'd balls still hit the ceiling with a decent amount of force. For my setup it is not a huge deal since I have my sim in an out-building with a metal roof and spray insulation on the ceiling and not in a drywalled environment. The netting does kill most of the shots before they hit the net. I could probably add a small amount of foam between the net and ceiling to protect the ceiling more if needed.

    I'm looking to buy the same screen with same 16x9 size to put in my metal building which has a 12' ceiling. I notice you don't have an enclosure or netting above your screen. How far from the screen is your hitting area? Also, it looks like your projector is above the top of the screen? From the calculation I've seen online, my short throw projector will have to be mounted only 7'6" off the ground to fill the 16x9 screen in 16:9 resolution. Any info or advice based on your setup is appreciated. Thanks.

    • @sprythepokerguy8125
      @sprythepokerguy8125 2 года назад

      Screen is 10 feet from hitting area. And we do have netting across the ceiling and on top of the screen. We've had plenty of balls hit into the netting as well so you certainly need something up there if you are anywhere near 10' away from your screen. I use the same projector as you and it is hung just above my hitting zone maybe a 9.5' from the screen. It hangs at 10' high. so 9.5' away and 10' up is where the projector hangs. Fills the screen perfectly.

    Nice review. I've had mine for about 18 months and don't love it. I agree with you on the injury aspect of it as it is pretty darn forgiving on the joints. But I hate how the mat pushes back on your club when you sole it. It influences the lie and face angle way too much. My son, who is a competitive junior and high school golfer, won't even bother using the strip because it's so unlike a real fairway or tee box. But as you said, it's nice for preventing injury. I just ordered the holy grail which hopefully combines the two theories.
