102 driving bays spread out on 3 levels.

TopGolf is the premier golf entertainment complex where the competition of sport meets your favorite local hangout spot. You can challenge your friends and family to addictive point-scoring golf games that anyone from the hopeful PGA tour contender to your neighbor’s 7-year-old kid can play year-round. Just picture a 240-yard outfield with dartboard-like targets in the ground. The closer to the center or “bull’s-eye” you get and the farther out you hit your microchipped balls, the more points you receive. Score even bigger with TopGolf’s extensive food and beverage menu that is sure to impress even the pickiest foodies. It’s not golf – it’s TopGolf. Give it a shot!


This is what Chicken has invested in with all the millions he has made on TD.

The net they have in place is gigantic. You can see it pretty clear from I-10 pretty far away.

I'm not sure why they make all the Top Golfs so short, especially when hitting from the top it's not that far to reach. Yea they have a tall net but when you're on the 3rd story it's not hard to hit it out. I guess I hit the ball pretty far but I wouldn't say I hit the ball extraordinarily long and I've got it out of there plenty of times. I know a guy who played college golf and he can blast it out of there pretty much whenever he wants from the top level.

This is the one in Dallas FWI

240 is pretty short. Needs to be 100 yards longer. 200 yards longer if ryno is in attendance

Its fun, but gets old quick. Great to go with some friends and booze it up though.

What keeps inebriated golfers from falling from the upper decks? Falling from upper decks at sporting venues is a fast growing past time in this Country.
