Looking to improve your swing before you can get out on the course? Thornapple Pointe Golf Club’s new Live Golf Studio is now open to the public and accepting “tee times.”
Thornapple Pointe Golf Club, located at 7211 48th St. SE, Grand Rapids but just east of Kentwood, is the first of the Watermark Properties golf clubs to offer Live Golf Studios “for golfers who want to maintain their game throughout the winter and shoulder seasons in Michigan,” according to supplied information.
Live Golf Studios is, also according to supplied information, the first West Michigan state-of-the-art golf facility offering golfers of all levels the opportunity to play in a controlled climate using high technology simulation at over 50 golf courses, practice ranges and more.
“During our soft opening period, where we had members trying out the Live Golf Studios, it was really encouraging to see so many different ages and levels of golfers,” Chris Sobieck, General Manager of Watermark Golf and Sports, said in supplied material. “We had families playing, as well as, our most competitive golfers and others all out having a great time. These simulators offer something for everyone.”
And, yes, Thornapple Pointe will have a bar and full kitchen open during hours of play.
The Live Golf Studios at Thornapple Pointe include 6 simulators in total, 4 PGA Tour Widescreen and 2 PGA Tour Curve simulators. Each of the simulators allow golfers the ability to play over 50 golf courses with various challenge options. Live Golf Studio course selections include highly prestigious locations such as the Pebble Beach Golf Resorts, St. Andrews Links, and the Players Championship Courses.
New Live Golf Leagues will begin mid-January 2019. Leagues will run for nine weeks of play and include prizes. For more information about the leagues and to sign up, contact Live Golf Studios at 616-803-1200.
