Top Golf Lafayette

[shof]

This is top golf’s new concept. They basically have owned all the large markets in the US and have populated themselves everywhere possible. The new concept is for medium size markets of 100k -200k.

It is 2 story rather than 3 or 4 stories.

It is a brilliant idea and they will be opening these all over the country in the next few years.

I’d never really considered this. Checked to see what my 2 closest ones had (SA and Austin). Both are 3 floors, 100+ climate controlled bays, 200+ HDTVs, etc, etc.
Makes me wonder what the smaller market New Braunfels location will have. We are smaller than Lafayette, but great location between San Antonio and the San Marcos/south Austin area ..

if you golf, bring your own clubs, provided clubs have extremely high flex shafts

...but the higher you are, the further you can hit the ball.

. What does taking drugs have to do with how far you hit a golf ball.

ball?

Google is your friend.

With friends like that who needs enemies.
Point being AAC only chooses teams from bigger/better markets we are told and top gold I suspect thinks Acadiana is a better market

It’s all about the hits.

Top golf will be opening soon and I wonder what golfers think about it. Not being a golfer it looks like a gimmick.

I think you answered it. It's typically the people who aren't golfers who like it because it is gimmicky. And of course they serve alcohol and food..

Any swing coach will tell you hitting off of turf is bad for your swing. Clubs that aren't fit to you and hitting off of a surface that doesn't provide correct feedback for your feel are both really bad things for your swing.

If you're a weekend warrior shooting 90 at your local muni, it probably doesn't matter. If you're a serious player trying to maintain a consistent swing, not great.

Do you not bring your own clubs?

[CajunPride]

You can bring your own clubs or use the ones provided.
