Driving Ranges
 
Are there any local driving ranges that offer all you can hit for one set price?

Buffalo Junction
 
$50 a month for all you can hit!

I didn't realize they had a "all the balls you can hit" price. Is it a monthly charge?

bare, i think they are referring to buffalo ridge, the driving range is behind wal-mart on 466, sounds like they have a $50 per month fee for unlimited use of the driving range, it is golf cart accessible...gn

Oh Golf Nut, thank you for the explanation! I must have taken a stupid pill. I've just taken up golfing so I need unlimited practice!

It is a mixture. I am aware of 4 ranges "inside (owned by) TV": Lopez, Glenview, Palmer and Sarasota (466A). Memory says that Lopez has no mats, but I could be wrong.

I use Palmer and Sarasota the most as they are closer for me. I am pretty sure that Palmer is on mats Tue and Thu and MAYBE Sat, Sarasota is on mats Mon and Wed and (MAYBE Friday).

Depending on what I am working on I sometimes perfer mats, so I like the options. I would call to get the official schedule.

My husband has a bottle of them on his dresser. Unlimited refills. I think he's OD on them a few times. Why won't he just listen to me?:1rotfl:

At Buffalo Junction - behind Walmart - I buy the 50 small buckets special for $100. Regularly they would be $4 each and you would pay $200. In fact, all they do is give you card with a $200 balance and you can use it however you want in any combination of small and large buckets until the $ are gone. I think they are supposed to give you 50 balls in a small bucket and 100 in a large but they always give you more. They had a $50 per month all you can hit back in the late summer but I don't know if it is still available.

Scott Leahy's is all off grass (located behind Wal Mart on 466 and you can get there by golf cart) . . . great range and great prices but getting crowded at times!
