Indoor Golf can be a good option for family outings in summers
With Chennai being perhaps the poorest metro in golfing facility terms, indoor simulator golf may just be the ticket to giving more people a chance to learn the game. With this in mind Golfer’s Edge Chennai (GEC) has opened a new indoor golf centre in the heart of the city. The centre features an ultra-realistic HD virtual simulator and an exclusive 170 sq.ft. putting turf. It opened its doors to the public on March 20.
While GEC caters to golfing enthusiasts in the city with a fully air-conditioned indoor facility that will enable visitors to play golf year-round, it also aspires to make learning golf affordable, accessible and entertaining to new players. GEC has customised coaching sessions, memberships, and special programs for adults and children.
The GEC virtual golf simulator features practice mode which replicates a real golf driving range experience, and offers over 150,000 golf courses from around the world including the world famous Old Course at St. Andrews, Scotland (The Home of Golf), Pebble Beach Golf Links and Augusta National (home of The Masters Tournament) to play on. With a high speed tracking camera and live analysis of every swing, chip and putt, the simulator offers a very real golfing experience to learn and improve your game.
One can enjoy all aspects of golf even in an indoor setup
Other than regular golf, the simulator also offers numerous fun games such Footie Golf, Golf Bowling, Gallery Golf and Golf Darts, to name a few, to make the experience extra fun and competitive.
The exclusive putting turf is ideal for anyone to practice their putting skills and learn the finer aspects of the short game while golfing equipment is provided at no additional cost in order to enable customers to learn with ease, without the hassle of buying expensive equipment at the very start.
The centre offers individual and group coaching classes for children and young adults. GEC will soon open its first summer camp for kids between 7-12yrs for which it has tied up with Golphin, an award winning company from Scotland that designs and manufactures junior golf sets, and will use Golphin’s proprietary mobile app – MyPathway2Golf to make learning fun.
For adults GEC offers personalised and group lessons with licensed coaches, at timings that are flexible. The centre also invites small groups to book the venue for special occasions and hosts corporate team events for small groups.
