When I give instruction on our range here in PA you can't believe how many members come down to the range and "pretend" to be hitting while hanging on every word I say. Freebie lessons/tips are always appreciated. It got to the point that now I give lessons at the far end of the range...

It is a HUGE distraction for those trying to hit and concentrate on their swing cues. I can't understand why, if you ask the proprietor, they couldn't put you somewhere where you won't interfere. As to liability well all I can say is self preservation is a key to survival. Ever been creased by a hosle-flopped range ball going sideways? Another reason to put some folks away from the pack.

Go where you want. I am pleased with Buffalo and the staff. I would not want you teaching some kid next to me. We don't want that crap. Cheers

Default Buffalo Junction

Pat Leahy is not there anymore and new management has cancelled all credits due as of 03/1/2012. I lost $ 200 and will never hit there again. The ranges at The Villages are in much better shape.

Maybe it is an error by management. If you were due services or practice golf buckets you might inquire with Pat Leahy at: info@leahygolf.com. to get this clarified.

$4 for a small. Is that an increase?

Default prices

They now charge 10 dollars for a large..I have no idea what Palmer or others charge and a neighbor told me that now they are on par or above in pricing..I'm aslking the question, that's all..Seems a little high to me for the large bucket but I don't know if they have any "deals" like they used to?
