Top Golf metro rumors

[3TrueFans]

How is this more of less attractive than just going to a driving range? Just the ability to do it in the Winter?

I'm sure some people use Top Golf as a range if it's the most convenient, but that's not what it's for. It's an entertainment activity for friends or groups of people, it's like bowling except not all white trashy and depressing.

For a golfer actually practicing it's not more attractive than an actual range except in the winter maybe. Hitting off mats kinda sucks and the balls aren't normal balls because they have to be able to be tracked by the system so they feel kinda weird.

It’s a great time. One of the best possible company outings you can do. Booze, good food, light hearted golf games, and you’re in & out within 2-3 hours max.

This will be a great addition to the metro area and will be packed all spring/summer long.

I went to a top golf in texas during the middle of the day once and it was completely filled with old people playing league. (1 hour wait) Think of a bowling league, but just golf.

also Top Golf is known for company parties etc. it will be successful. like I said earlier, i just wish it was in Altoona by Bass, mall and adventureland.

Top Golf rules.

Full bar and restaurant. Pretty good food actually.

I personally thought if it was going to happen, to plop it into the giant field east of the Altoona outlet mall.

There is already a plan for residential units in that area

You kind of see the theme going on here right?

Altoona: bass pro shop, outlet mall, Adventureland

Waukee/Dallas County west side: Jordan creek, imax, top golf

Yeah, Johnston keeps getting passed over.

I love Johnston. That was my last city of residence in Iowa. It’s definitely the highest class suburb of DSM. I liked how they kept out the BS crowd pulling stuff.

Would throw Prairie meadows on that list also. Just thought it would have been cool to drive along the interstate in Altoona, and see the top golf complex, Prairie Meadows and adventureland, Bass Pro and new mall in the same area. Not that its cool, but a massive facebook setup on the other side of the interstate. Would have been a wow factor with all that together.

They have started building a lot of condos and apartments in Johnston. Still a great town but I wish they would focus on single family homes instead. Nothing better then drinking Busch Light while Blackhawks do a fly by.

They've started hanging the nets at the Top Golf they are building in Omaha. Those columns are pretty huge when you drive by.

Bastard. Got me excited

Has this been confirmed, or is it still a rumor?

It’s a confirmed rumor

 

[BillBrasky4Cy]

A friend of mine is connected to someone in the know and from what she told me it won't be a Top Golf. It sounds like it something similar but the last time we discussed it she said that Top Golf was definitely nothing more than a rumor.

I heard a rumor about 3 months ago about top golf looking at a retrofit of Valley West Mall. Didn't know about this Waukee rumor at the time. Honestly I think the Waukee location makes more sense, but I guess Valley West Mall would be more central to the metro. Also not sure of the validity of said rumor in general.

Not a snowballs chance in hell of that happening.
