Get the SIGPRO Softy 4×10. The replaceable hitting strip, real-tee compatibility, and dedicated launch monitor space make it the more capable home simulator mat for most buyers. It lists at $670 more than the SIGPRO 3D 5×5, and that gap is real — but the 3D 5×5 earns its place if you're outfitting a commercial bay or need a square mat for an outdoor hitting area. Those are genuine exceptions. For a home setup, the Softy 4×10 is the default.
Both are SIGPRO mats sold through The Indoor Golf Shop. Neither comes with a warranty on record, and neither publishes a swing guarantee. Both are single-SKU products with no variants to sort through, which at least simplifies the buying decision.
The 3D 5×5 is a 60 × 60 in square. The Softy 4×10 runs 120 × 48 in — 10 feet long, 4 feet wide. Those are different tools for different spaces. The square mat lets you set up anywhere on the surface and hit in any direction; the long rectangular mat orients you in one direction and dedicates the extra length to a stance area with room beside the strip for a launch monitor. If your setup has a fixed hitting direction — which most simulator bays do — the Softy 4×10's shape matches how you'll actually use it.
The 3D 5×5 is 1.6 in thick. The Softy 4×10 is 2.5 in thick. That's a 0.9 in difference. If you're setting a floor-standing launch monitor down beside the mat, that's the step you'd be measuring against.
This is the core difference. The 3D 5×5 is a uniform woven-turf surface with no hitting strip. You can tee from any of four insert holes, but there's nothing to replace when the hitting zone wears down. The Softy 4×10 has an integrated SIGPRO Softy hitting strip — a 1-inch Teeline turf over a foam insert with compression slots — and that strip is replaceable. A strip you can swap out is the difference between a worn mat and a new mat. The Softy's Teeline turf also takes a real tee at adjustable height, which the 3D 5×5 does not. The 3D 5×5 works with tee inserts (the Tomahawk NEO, Bir-Tee, TeeClaw), but those are sold separately and not included.
The Softy 4×10 weighs 31 lbs. The Indoor Golf Shop doesn't publish a weight for the 3D 5×5, so there's no gap to compare — but 31 lbs for a 10-foot mat is worth knowing if you're moving it around.
The SIGPRO 3D 5×5 lists at $529.99. The SIGPRO Softy 4×10 lists at $1,199.99 — a $670 gap at list.

The SIGPRO Softy 4×10 is set up for a simulator bay in a way the 3D 5×5 simply isn't — real tees, a replaceable strip, and enough length to fit a monitor beside your stance. The 3D 5×5 has a real use case in commercial or outdoor settings, and it lists at $670 less. But if you're putting together a home hitting bay and wondering which mat to anchor it with, the answer is the Softy 4×10.
