A golf night suits a gathering where you want to move about together, rather than only eat and drink.
When experienced players and beginners are mixed, a venue you can come to empty-handed, with simple games to choose from, is the reassuring one.
Check everyone's golfing experience
Where someone is holding a club for the first time, start with a driving-range mode or a short game.
Keep the experienced from teaching in too much detail, and let everyone go at their own pace.
Choose a venue you can come to empty-handed
If clubs, gloves and shoes can be borrowed, meeting up straight from work or from shopping becomes easy.
Check the sizes in stock, the rental charge, and whether there is somewhere to change.
Look at the room and how it photographs
To talk and take pictures without an audience, a semi-private booth or a fully private room is the candidate.
When taking photographs, keep other guests and staff out of shot, and follow the venue's rules.
- Beginner modes
- Free rentals
- A private room
- Alcohol-free drinks
Combine the free-flow drinks with the activity
Check that the menu, cocktails, soft drinks, alcohol-free options, gives everyone something to choose.
With darts or karaoke alongside the golf, you can switch to something else once arms get tired.

Frequently asked questions
Can we enjoy it if none of us has played golf?
At a venue with beginner games and someone to explain them, easily.
Is it fine to arrive in heels?
You can arrive in them, but for playing we would suggest changing into the stable rental shoes.
Can someone who does not drink join the plan?
That depends on the plan. Check the soft drinks and alcohol-free options, and the price.
