Driving Range Times
Why is it so hard to find answers to simple questions? What are the open times and locations for practice facilities - driving and short game?????

This is Palmer Legends. Not sure all follow the same but you can check on Golf the Villages:
http://www.golfthevillages.com/champ...PALMER LEGENDS Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sundays we utilize the grass tee-weather permitting. The other days of the week we would ask all golfers to use the mats. The practice facility is open 7 days a week and is available from sunrise to sunset with one exception. On Saturday’s the practice facility closes at 4 pm for maintenance and reopens on Sunday mornings at 9 am. |

Thanks for the info. If the ranges were open, which they are NOT I would call. If I knew what ranges were available I would call. Problem is - I don't know either - which is why I asked here. Thanks Jayhawk for at least some info! It was helpful! I live near the Sarasota range but was wondering about the times and locations of all facilities.

Golf driving range
I am not in TV at this time, so I cannot give you any information on Oxford golf. They are on 301 near 466. You should be able to get their info on line.

On campus driving ranges are at Lopez, Palmer, Glenview and of course Sarasota. They would be open when the pro shop is open to buy a token or the starter shack for a small bucket which is now $2. The biggest question I always have is what days are mats, because I don't want to use them. Last time I was at Glenview mats were on Friday and Sunday. Nice chipping greens are at Cane Garden and Bonifay. Maybe others can fill in more info.
Off campus ranges that I use are Oxford Driving Range on Hwy 301 just south of 466, hit from sod anytime and new Wilson Staff balls and several aiming targets. Buckets are only $5 for a good size of 80 balls or so. Tree Top Range on Rolling Acres Rd south of 466 behind American Legion, hit from sod, bucket $7 could use some more targets. Newly reopened range behind Walmart on 466, I haven't been there since new ownership, I read they have new Titleist balls. |
