What is Five Iron Golf?
Five Iron Golf provides one of few premier indoor golf experiences, whether you're looking for lessons, a regular practice space or somewhere to enjoy a lively and unique group activity. You can enjoy a facility like this if you've golfed for years or just want to learn what all the fuss over this historic sport is all about.
Five Iron Golf explained
Five Iron Golf has quickly gained a reputation for a great atmosphere golfers and non-golfers can both enjoy. The indoor experience alone makes the game of golf a bit more accessible. However, the offerings at each location extend beyond golf and provide something for everyone. As a unique event space for parties, small and large locations often have different table games, TVs and a full bar and menu.
For golfers, this indoor space to train or play could be a paradise, especially when the go-to links are inaccessible for some reason, such as bad weather. Five Iron Golf has golf simulators and professional instructors, but it's also a casual hotspot for groups looking for a fun night out.
Let's review some of the most notable features at Five Iron Golf locations.

Lessons
You can book private or semi-private lessons with the instructors at Five Iron Golf, whether you're a beginner or ready for advanced training. Instructors are generally available for lessons as early as 6 a.m. and as late as 10 p.m.
Depending on how much you play, you can choose which type of lesson is most appropriate for you when you schedule.
For beginners
If you're new to playing golf, you can learn basic techniques and skills, such as grip, aim and making contact with the ball. You can work with your instructor to build solid fundamentals for a swing that works for you and your body. You'll also learn about the different types of clubs and how to use them, then try different shots on the virtual links.
For occasional players
If you have the fundamentals down, you can focus your lessons at Five Iron Golf on understanding exactly how to improve. Instructors and simulation technology will help you learn the sources of your mistakes, as well as what's leading to your good shots.
Consistent lessons can help you build strategies that can transfer to real course play. Build stronger techniques as you learn what you should do to increase accuracy and distance. This way, you can become better equipped to meet challenges of different on-course scenarios.
For fine-tuning your skills
Reaching a certain level of play probably means you have techniques down pat, but you'll want to really maximize distance and accuracy. Five Iron Golf has tour-quality balls and the advanced technology needed to give you useful data to hone your skills. In general, advanced lessons will focus on developing strong routines, making the most of this practice time.
