GOLFTEC
Keep your golf game going year-round at Spokane County’s swing suites
The Spokane region is blessed with an incredible array of golf courses to keep everyone from low-handicappers to weekend duffers happy. And thanks to our weather, it’s conceivable to play a round every month of the year. Of course, a tough winter can make that impossible, and some of us would rather wait until it warms up before hitting the links.
The downside of a golf offseason, though, is having your swing fall apart when you spend months away from your clubs. Thankfully, Spokane County is home to a number of golf simulators and swing suites that can keep you in swinging shape year-round. Some are designed for more experienced players, while others allow for an hour or two of fun when beginners and experts can play together.
GOLFTEC Spokane is definitely designed for the more serious golfers looking to up their game. Personal coaches are at the ready to help players improve, although now those coaches have a daily wellness check before they start lessons. Among the COVID-related updates GOLFTEC has undertaken are masks required for all players and coaches, private bays for practicing your swing, heavy cleaning and sanitizing between lessons, and an online system of booking your lessons or practice in advance, just like booking a tee time. You can pretty much get in and out of there touchless, unless you want to sample some (sanitized for your protection) new clubs.
For the more laid-back golfers and folks who just like to have a drink and maybe hit a few balls, the Spokane region has a couple of TOPGOLF SWING SUITES that cater to having fun with all levels of player. At NORTHERN QUEST RESORT & CASINO, up to eight people can play at a time, and their Topgolf outlet has all the equipment you’ll need. While you’re there, you can order food and drinks delivered to your suite, and you’re the DJ, too.
The other Topgolf Swing Suite outlet is at Spokane Valley’s FLYING SQUIRREL, best known as a massive trampoline park. It’s temporarily closed due to COVID restrictions, but when it reopens, the swing suite offers any number of games for the golfers in your life, plus food and beverages that would never fit in a golf cart.
