In the past year, many of us have picked up new hobbies to divert our attention away from the ongoing pandemic and to fill up the time we used to spend on activities that were more appropriate for pre-pandemic times.
While nothing beats playing on golf courses and navigating around the different, challenging environments to attain the best scores, sometimes, what we need to level up in our golf skills is repetitive practice.
Driving ranges allow players to have greater practice volume, something which playing on a golf course might not necessarily allow, as it focuses on perfecting the form and the consistent quality of our golf shots.
If you’re looking to clock in those practice hours, we’ve compiled the 6 best driving ranges in Singapore for you to visit:
Newly re-opened in April 2019 after a renovation, Seletar Club’s driving range now boasts 2 tiers with 52 bays and full training facilities. With its beautiful sceneries of the Lower Seletar Reservoir and Johor Straits and excellent club facilities, including 4 dining spots, it is no surprise why this club is a favourite among the local golfers.
