Good to know
How much does a bucket of golf balls cost at a driving range?
Small buckets containing 30 to 40 balls typically cost $7 to $10, while large buckets with 100 to 120 balls cost $15 to $20. Entertainment-focused ranges with ball-tracking tech usually charge $25 to $50 per hour per bay rather than per bucket.
Do I need to reserve a stall at a driving range in advance?
Traditional outdoor driving ranges operate on a first-come, first-served basis where you purchase a bucket at the pro shop or automated kiosk. Interactive or indoor tracking bays usually require or strongly recommend online reservations, especially after 5:00 PM and on weekends.
Can I rent clubs if I do not have my own equipment?
Yes, most standalone driving ranges and golf course pro shops offer individual club rentals for $3 to $5 per club, or full set rentals for $15 to $25 per session. Many venues also keep standard 7-irons or wedges available for free public use.
