Best range promotion: The best range promotion we run is the sale of our range key. The key costs $180 and that comes with 65 tokens preloaded on the key. We do not offer range memberships and this a much more profitable frequent user program. There are many customers that purchase 5 or more keys per year. We sold 264 keys last year.
Special programs: We are an affiliate course for the First Tee Program of Metro Oklahoma City. We host their Fall, Spring and Summer Programs. We are the host of our local YMCA’s SNAG Junior Golf Program both in the Spring and Fall when they do their real golf range experience. We have two teachers on staff that work with Special Olympians weekly. I have taught Jonathan Parkhurst since 2004 and we have won at the local and state levels in the alternate shot partner format. We also competed at the 2015 Special Olympics Golf National Championships in Hilton Head South Carolina. We are the home course of one high school team and 4 middle school teams. We also are the home course University of Central Oklahoma’s Professional Golf Management Program.
