Golf Simulator for Beginners in Brooklyn

Yes, beginners can use Play Thru Golf. No experience is needed, clubs are included, and a private TrackMan bay is a low-pressure place to learn: no tee times, no one waiting behind you, and instant feedback on every swing.

  • No experience needed
  • Clubs, balls & tees included
  • Lefty and kids' clubs
  • Open 24/7

Why a simulator is a good place to start

  • It's private. You book a whole bay, so it's just you and up to three friends.
  • You see what happened. TrackMan shows where each shot went and why, which makes it easier to improve.
  • You can practice without a full round. Use the driving range, short games or arcade-style modes before you try a course.
  • Nothing to buy. We have right-handed men's and women's clubs, left-handed men's and women's clubs, and kids' clubs in three sizes. Balls and tees are free.

How to get started

1. Book an hour

Book a bay online or in the app. One hour is the minimum, and you can add time in 30-minute increments. Bays cost $50 to $70 per hour depending on the time, and that covers up to four people, so an off-peak hour with four friends is $12.50 each.

2. Let yourself in

Fifteen minutes before your booking, tap the unlock button in your confirmation email or the Play Thru Golf app. There's no front desk.

3. Start on the range

The TrackMan is already on. Start in driving range mode to get comfortable, then try a few holes on a course. Eighteen holes takes about an hour for one player and about 2 to 2.5 hours for four.
