Incorporating advanced technology like Toptracer ball-tracking and SmartTarget.Golf Interactive Golf Targets, the center provides a unique and immersive experience.

ENTERTAINMENT IS THE NAME OF THE GAME
PinSeekers Golf Center’s putting courses offer an authentic experience with 18 holes of artificial turf and subtle undulations. The absence of gimmicks like windmills or statues contributes to a more realistic feel, supported by a layer of sand beneath the turf. The white sand traps and blue water hazards with longer turf allow players to navigate through them.
PinSeekers Golf Center’s main building offers an impressive setup with 20 climate-controlled hitting bays per level. Each bay is equipped with two TV screens, 2,000 balls, and food services. The immersive experience is enhanced by the cutting-edge Toptracer ball-tracing technology. The driving range’s back net spans 250 yards, with chipping targets ranging from 50 to 225 yards. Rental rates range from $18 to $42 per hour, accommodating up to six golfers per bay, averaging $7 per golfer during peak times.
Dispensing balls is easy—players place the club under a sensor. Safety nets are installed on upper levels, while the first level houses a mini-bowling facility. The driving range can accommodate up to 360 individuals simultaneously. The second level, serving as the main entrance, includes an event space for 125 people, a prominent bar, and a restaurant.
