Making an expression of interest for anyone who would be interested in a Virtual Driving Range Golf simulator day?

http://www.golfcraze.com.au

Basically smash the ball into the screen, where it shows a virtual image of your hit, speed, range etc. Can also play a round on tiger woods golf game etc.

If you're not into golf you can at least see how fast you could smack someone with a golf club

Website above has some pictures and more info.

Max people per simulator is 4, which I can get it down to $5 per hour (per person)

There is a place to sit and a bar to purchase your drinks/booze, althought seating is only for players

If i get enough replies in this thread ill plan a time.

Feel free to also post a time suitable for yourself and others as it will be easier to plan that way

Sounds like fun.

Being Chelsea - if it's on a weeknight, would have to be 8pm or later. But I'd have a crack at being crap at golf.

Sounds like fun. I'm in.

Also @ Albert park Golf driving range, you can buy/drink beer and aim for the guy in the ball picking up tractor

I used to be that guy at the driving range here....only I didn't always get to be in the tractor....sometimes you have to do it on foot

Its fun because everyone aims at you, but most of them have no chance of getting you....

Then there's the people with a good aim....

It's right across the road from the hospital though, so not far to travel :sorcerer:

[SS8_Gohan]

i play golf. this event interests me.

[KamikazeR33]

i might b up for it depending on wat day

i still thinks a game of reeel golf would b better. driving buggies while drinking... doing donuts etc... is there anything more fun?

[Jonneh Bravo]

I am interested. put me down. someone get this going

[MissJuz]

I'm interested in playing an actual game of golf or going to a driving range, not sure of the simulator idea though.

I'm just learning to play so it makes for some pretty entertaining golfing. I can't hit it far but I can hit straight which is good!!

[Roy]

The fun is getting out in the sun and losing balls...if its in doors then it has to be tenpin bowling

[Espo]

I'd be up for 9 holes one Sunday.

Beer Skins Golf!!!

[Leewah]

Sounds like fun. Depending on the day, I may attend.

[Rekin]

well sounds like there is a bit of interest and think it might be better idea to open this event to non-members.

In regards to MissJuz, the simulator allows you to analyse how and where the ball was hit on the club head, so you can adjust your swing and actually see the difference in distance travelled and how it curves etc. In my opinion best to learn via the simulator and then off to the course

These systems in Driving range mode, will show,

- Hit distance

- Face angle

- In/out swing path

- Angle of attack

- Club speed

- Ball speed

- Swing tempo

- Left/right of centre

- Left/right of path

- Toe/heel heights

- Sweet spot

So you will always know what your doing wrong, we also have a golf pro on site that will be able to provide tips & lessons to get you one step closer to paring more holes.

As this is indoor it would be best to leave it for night as in the day may as well go to an actual golf course/driving range.

Im thinking of after 7-8pm on any day.

Maybe even 8pm this Friday or Saturday.

Post up your preffered time and if you would like this open to the non-members.

Thanks

If any mod could move this to general events, as I believe there may be more interest
