Driving ranges to work on your swing in Vancouver
One of the most important parts of any golf game is the first shot. Get it right and you’ve set yourself up for a simple short game on the greens. At these Vancouver area driving ranges, you can get your game tightened up so your handicap keeps dropping.
Musqueam Golf Course
3904 51st Ave W, Vancouver, BC V6N 3W1You can get started as early as 8 am and keep swinging until 10 at night, with the last bucket of balls dispensed at 9:30. Once you’ve settled on a time, get set to practice in one of the best driving ranges in Vancouver. There are two tiers holding 80 stalls and you’ll be aiming at various length markers on artificial turf. And, just as in a real game, there are greens, bunkers and water hazards in your path.
Richmond Driving Range
4880 No. 6 Rd, Richmond, BC V6V 1P7If you’ve decided that improving your golf game is your New Year’s resolution, fantastic. You can get started right away because they have heated and covered stalls. But if you’re a regular golfer who wants to keep chipping away at your game, the driving range has your back year round. It can fit up to 50 golfers at a time and there are discounts for groups of more than 10 people, so hit the range with as many friends as you’d like.
Lets Go Golf Ltd
On a clear day, you can see gorgeous landscapes for miles and miles, especially if you’re practicing on the second tier. Stalls are covered so you can still drive if the rain hits but with driving range hours from 8 am to 10 pm (9 pm on Sundays), you may just be able to elude the weather. Prices are pretty reasonable for balls and you can always catch an incredible sale, but the best deal comes with club rentals.
Burnaby Mountain Golf Course & Driving Range
7600 Halifax St, Burnaby, BC V5A 4M8Things are pretty high-tech at this driving range — when you line up your shot, you may feel like you’re getting set for kick-off at a pro soccer game instead. The sheltered stalls are heated and the range is well lit, with stately trees on both sides of you. A pro shop is on site if you want to invest in your own equipment, but if not, rentals are fairly reasonably priced.
Savage Creek Golf Course & Driving Range
7388 No. 6 Rd, Richmond, BC V6W 1E1It’s difficult for one driving range to appeal to a large number of personalities and golfing types, but Savage Creek scores major points for its inclusivity. It’s the kind of place where a semi-pro golfer and first-timer could be in adjacent stalls, as there’s more than enough room to house everyone. There are a whopping three tiers and 60 bays to this driving range and you can whack balls out of the place any day of the week.
