Craig Field Driving Range

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time to visit Craig Field Driving Range to avoid crowds?

We've found that hitting balls early on a weekday morning, right after they open, is your best bet for a quiet session. You'll have your pick of bays and won't feel rushed, which is perfect for really focusing on your swing. Weekends, especially afternoons, can get pretty busy, so plan accordingly if you prefer a livelier atmosphere.

What kind of hitting experience can I expect at Craig Field Driving Range? Are there grass tees?

You'll primarily be hitting off quality mats here, which are well-maintained and provide a consistent surface. They do open a limited grass tee area on select days, usually weekends or during peak season, so call ahead if that's a priority for you. The targets are clearly marked and varied, giving you plenty to aim at.

How much does it cost to hit balls at Craig Field Driving Range, and is it good value?

A large bucket typically runs about $15-18, which we think is fair for the quality of the balls and facilities. They also offer smaller buckets if you're just looking for a quick warm-up. For serious practice, consider their loyalty card or bulk purchase options-they can save you a few dollars in the long run.

Does Craig Field Driving Range offer any short game practice areas?

Absolutely, and this is where Craig Field really shines for dedicated golfers. Beyond the main range, you'll find a dedicated chipping green with bunkers and a separate putting green that's always well-maintained. We highly recommend spending some time here to sharpen your wedges and putter-it's often less crowded than the main hitting bays.

Are there any unique features or amenities at Craig Field Driving Range that make it stand out?

What we appreciate most is their commitment to technology; they have a few bays equipped with launch monitors available for an extra fee, which is fantastic for getting real-time data on your swing. Plus, there's a small but well-stocked pro shop for essentials and a snack bar with surprisingly good hot dogs and cold drinks. It's a solid all-around practice spot.
