On one side of my driveway I have a roughly 25ft by 6ft rectangular piece of my side yard that sits between my driveway and the property line of my neighbor. Currently there are 3 sprinkler heads sitting at the edge of the driveway at the corners and middle of this grass area. I'm having a problem getting the entire area actually watered.

Seems most of the heads are shooting over the 6ft width and watering more of my neighbors yard than mine. If I adjust the heads and lower their output, then I end up with a wall water flow and gaps in between the 3 heads because the arcs don't overlap.

Is there an effective popup sprinkler to get a narrow strip of grass?

Hunter makes some for strips. Scroll down about halfway on the page linked above.

most sprinkler nozzle makers will have one, what you are looking for is a side strip pattern

Hunter nozzle part numbers:
SS530 for the side strip (sprays 5 ft out and 15 ft both sides)
RCS515 & LCS515 for the corner strips that will spray out 5 ft and 15 ft one direction.

Rainbird part numbers:
R15SST, R15RCS & R15LCS same as above.

I have a strip 5-6' wide and 25' long, both front and backyard, and they get completely covered.

There are 4 nozzles, one on each midpoint of each side. The spray exactly where they need to.

I don't know what this type of head is called, but it exists. My heads are hunter.

Thank you. Any idea where I can buy these? Home depot didn't have any of these nozzles

SiteOne Landscape Supply or any other major irrigation supplier.

Part of the issue is that is not correct coverage. Most nozzles are only about 10% effective at the end of the spray pattern. You should have 3 heads on the property line throwing back towards the driveway.

Most irrigators in this case will install along the driveway throwing out, not towards the driveway. Typically the goal is to keep water "away from impervious substances." This includes houses, retaining walls, sidewalks, etc.
