Best range promotion:
Here at Eagle Hills not only do we have a driving range, a practice putting green, and a short-game practice area but we also have a three-hole Academy Course as part of our 26 acre practice area. One or our objective for 2019 was to get more people playing golf not simply hitting balls. We felt the Academy Course provided players that opportunity. Here’s the promotion: For $8 to walk and $14 to ride play our 3-Hole Academy Course for as long as you want that day. If a player purchased an annual range or golf pass we included access to the Academy Course for free. This season 1,898 players have teed off on the Academy Course, a 13% increase. (If we include the participants of PGA HOPE, First Tee, Junior Golf Camps etc. the number grows to well over 3,500.) This promotion has helped to drive up all revenue sources throughout the facility as it has brought more people more often to Eagle Hills. In the evenings after work not only is our range busy so is the Academy Course now. Couples, families, individuals can now again enjoy getting out on the course and playing golf any time of day with what ever time they have for a modest price.
