Remember when she would hustle you for your email address to give you updates on "reopening" Sherwood Forest country club?

I knew a group that was trying to buy it from the old man. Had a crazy price on it.

Hate to burst yalls bubble but Baton Rouge isn't getting a Top Golf. Buddy is a PGA Pro and talked to them at the annual convention last year. They have specific corporate guidelines as to population and other factors before they will allow one to be opened. Baton Rouge isn't within their guidelines.

I wonder if there would even be enough space for it on that lot. Top Golf is massive. That would be outstanding right there, though.

Flight restricted balls. Not the best for actually practicing golf. More of a social thing.

I don't think that would be a good place for me to learn. Seems too crowded.

Curious about how many people population wise it would take for them to build one in Baton Rouge? Metro area is roughly 800,000 or so. What's their smallest market city?

yeah I know. I was part of a group to reach out to them about a year and a half ago. We dont fit their target market and socio-economic demographic.

They also turned down an offer to license use of their software.

It's not just population. It's population with enough income to patronize the business. How many of the 800k in the metro area meet that requirement?
