STANDUP GOLF GAMES? The ones you hit the ball at the screen..
walls83:
I dont know if anybody has seen these. Its a full size stand up golf game where you hit the ball at the screen. and you play golf course. Ive been looking for one but I dont know what to search for. I found one for 80 bucks but its only 6 holes.
Does anybody know of a place to find it.
SirPoonga:
I played one when visiting some friends. It's at Billiard Street Cafe in Fridley or Coon Rapids or Brooklyn Center, MN. It was somewhere in that area. I don't recall the name. It had two screens. One laying flat ont he floor where the ball was that you swung at and another at like a 45 degree angle that showed the holes.
DrewKaree:
If I am understanding you correctly, you are thinking of the things used at indoor golf ranges or semi-swanky golf equipment sales stores.
What state are you in? I'm in WI, and Golf Galaxy has them, but I dunno if there's a Golf Galaxy in your state. I believe they use an overhead projector along with a laser grid in front of the screen to simulate a slice/hook shot.....my understanding is that they're VERY pricey, and I can't really help you figure out what they're called other than maybe Projection Golf Simulators :-\
Hope that helps a little

Holy smoke $40,000
Dang. Those thing are sweet
DrewKaree:
Was that what they were called?
I was wondering how much those things cost too. I've got a buddy building a house and he's making a portion of his basement a couple of feet deeper just so he can set up a net to practice his swing over winter. We had the "let's get one of those" idea but we figured it'd be expensive.
