The Quick Verdict

Get the SIGPRO Softy 4×7. It's $160 more at list, but you get teeline turf that takes a real tee, space beside the strip for a launch monitor, and a weight figure that's actually published. The SIGPRO Softy LITE 4×7 is worth a look if your launch monitor is floor-standing and needs to sit level on the mat itself — that's the one case where the thinner profile pays off.

What They Have in Common

Same 84-inch by 48-inch footprint. Both use a replaceable SIGPRO Softy hitting strip, so when it wears out you're replacing a strip, not the whole mat. Neither carries a published warranty, and neither publishes a swing guarantee.

Where They Differ

Thickness — and what it means for your launch monitor

This is the one that actually changes how you set up your bay. The Softy 4×7 is 2.5 inches thick; the Softy LITE is 1.25 inches thick. That 1.25-inch gap is the whole question if you're using a floor-standing launch monitor. The LITE's 1¼ in is specifically called out as low enough for one to sit on the mat itself. The Softy 4×7 handles this differently: it leaves room beside the strip on the mat for the monitor to sit.

Figure out which setup your monitor needs before you decide.

Worth noting: The Indoor Golf Shop lists the Softy 4×7's strip height three different ways across its own pages — 2⅜ in, 2½ in and 2⅝ in. That inconsistency is on them, not me, and it's worth emailing them to confirm before you order.

Real tees vs. putting turf

The Softy 4×7 uses Teeline turf across the stance area, which takes a real tee at adjustable height. If you want to work on driver with a proper tee, this is the mat that does it. The Softy LITE uses premium putting turf for the stance surface, which doesn't take a real tee at all. The LITE is flagged as indoor-only, so if the mat ever goes outside, that's another check against it.

Weight and portability

The Softy 4×7 comes in at 21 lbs and breaks into two pieces for storage. The LITE's weight isn't published, so there's no gap to quote — you'd have to ask before ordering if that matters to you. The LITE, by contrast, is a seamless one-piece build.

What's in the box

The Softy 4×7 is described as a golf mat with an integrated SIGPRO Softy hitting strip. The LITE's included contents aren't listed — another gap worth confirming before you buy.

Who Should Buy Which

Buy the SIGPRO Softy 4×7 if:

  • You want to practice with a real tee, especially driver work
  • Your launch monitor sits in the space on the mat beside the strip
  • You want a known weight and a mat that breaks into two pieces for easier storage
  • You'd rather not be limited to a mat flagged indoor-only

Buy the SIGPRO Softy LITE 4×7 if:

  • You have a floor-standing launch monitor that needs to sit on the mat at close to ground level
  • You're hitting indoors only and don't need a real tee
  • The $160 difference at list matters and the thinner profile fits your setup
  • You prefer a seamless one-piece build

The Bottom Line

Both mats share the same footprint and the same replaceable-strip design. The real decision is thickness and tee options. The Softy 4×7 gives you a real tee, a published weight, two-piece portability, and room beside the strip for a launch monitor. The LITE gives you a lower profile that works better if your launch monitor sits on the mat. For most setups, the Softy 4×7's flexibility is worth the extra $160 at list.
