I hate golf for reasons above, but I recently tried Top Golf, and if there is any sustainable future for the sport, that’s it.
A single fairway can serve ~100 tees with probably 500 people playing. And some of the games are super accessible to people of lower skill levels. We played a round of Angry Birds at a work party where the virtual targets were only maybe 25-30 yards away. Super fun.
You got me reading about it. It sounds pretty cool. Like a cross between a driving range and bowling and video gaming. I would totally suck at it, but I could see how that would be fun.
I’ll second this. I hate "normal "golf but Top Golf is pretty fun. I like being able to get food and drinks too. It is quite pricey though so I don’t go very often (unless someone else is paying, lol). The first time I tried it was a vendor-sponsored event and I was like “huh, that’s kinda fun actually.”
Yeah, they have a big screen that maps a 3D Angry Birds piggie tower over the fairway, and the birds follow the path of your ball. It really is an impressive 1:1 mapping.

Ok, that does sound fun.

I just went to their website and saw a video, it’s missing the putting right? That’s also a fun part of the experience along with the approach.
Yeah, but there’s mini golf across town for that.
