Every time I pass by the parking lot is packed along with some cars parked on side of the road.

Yes. It is awesome. What are your specific questions?

It is packed. Try early mornings.

How does the pricing work? By the hour, or per "game"?

$20 per hour for the bay. $40 for peak times. Which is most times you would want to go. Does not matter how many balls or games you cram into that hour.

it is too short. You cant get up and knock the shite out of the ball.

But otherwise yes it is pretty fun. Nice take on the game of golf.

Gotcha. Thanks.

Any other advice, if any, would be appreciated.

True. 215 yards. I thought the chip in the ball would "guesstimate" how far a shot would have traveled.

Advice? Bring a glove. You will tear the piss out of your hands. The grips on their clubs are pretty coarse.

Go EARLY you will have to wait in line for the 5 dollar membership card. After that you are just reloading the card.

Can I bring a couple of my own clubs? That glove advice sounds solid. Thanks again.

You can bring your whole bag. But a fistful of clubs is the way to go.

Yes you can bring in your whole set.

All you need are PW, a 7 - 3 iron(depending on your game) and a hybrid.

3 wood if you want to do the long drive game, but again don't go there to knock the shite out of the ball.

But yes bring a 3-wood too. He is right.

i went about 3 weeks ago.

it was a blast. drinks aren't crazy expensive, food was though.

stayed for 3 hours with a group of 4 of us. each paid around 30$ to play, and i spend another 30 on drinking.

if you like golf, and you like drinking, it's perfect.

It is the cleanest, nicest bowling alley you have ever been to. But it is better because it is not bowling it's golf! Food is good when compared to all places. When compared to any other driving range it is fricking Smith & Wollensky's.
