Best range promotion:
We run a number of promotions on the range every year. One of the more unique programs we ran was a “Swing it like Bryson” clinic in which we worked exclusively with our members on increasing swing speed. We utilized a number of training aids including the “super-speed sticks” in an effort to increase members club head speeds during the clinic. We also utilized trackman to determine a speed base and showed each member how much they increased during the clinic. Another promotion that sets us apart is our break the glass competitions. For both member and corporate outings we will setup a “break the glass” competition similar to that of the Big Break on the golf channel. Quite frankly trying to break the glass becomes addicting and is always a big hit for both type of events.
Special programs:
Besides our player development programs we try to set the range up on an everyday basis as a way to practice playing our course. We offer short range targets up to 300+ yard driver targets and everything in between. Our short game area is the real gem of the facility complete with a huge green, run-off areas, and three bunkers. One of those bunkers can be used to hit fairway bunker shots onto our driving range.
