It is my assumption here that a definition or description of a driving range is not needed for the reader of this article.

Why Use a Driving Range?

Hitting straight drives is the aim of every golfer. Keeping the ball in play is essential to good scoring. The use of a driving range can help you achieve those objectives.

Welcome to the driving range, the place where every beginner should spend many hours hitting the ball in order to perfect their technique.

The Typical Driving Range

Most driving ranges are similar. Most contain at least 30 to 50 separate stalls. In this way, you can have your own individual space and privacy. You are separated from the other golfers by barriers made from wood or steal.

Inside will be a tray that contains your golf balls along with an artificial green turf mat, approximately 6 feet square. The average cost is around $5 for a bucket of balls. It will contain anywhere from 50 to 100 golf balls.

At the end of the artificial turf mat you will find a rubber tee that is located on one side of the area. This is where each golf ball will be placed for your shots. Larger golf clubs are typically used here, especially the driver.

However, many golf players may make their shots from the mat instead of the tee, using their irons. The reason is that this resembles the feel of hitting from real grass.

Your Goal In Using The Range

Your local driving range will have measured markers, located in the field which helps you to see the distance your ball has traveled. These markers should be 75 yards, 100 yards, 125 yards, 150 yards, 175 yards, 200 yards,
