Golfers can virtually play any of 26 championship golf courses indoors at the Neshanic Valley Golf Course Learning Center, 2301 South Branch Road in Neshanic Station.
An HDGolf simulator with image-processing software combines high-resolution digital images, satellite data and geophysical data into 3-D models of golf courses. Representations look real and are accurate with every tree, bunker and hazard reproduced exactly. Additionally, the simulator provides comprehensive and precise shot analysis, including ball speed, club speed, launch angle, club face angle, ball spin and spin axis at high accuracy.
Among the courses available at the Learning Center are Pebble Beach, St, Andrews, Pinehurst, Kiawah Island, Spyglass, Doral, Harbourtown, Troon North, Bethpage Black and Banff Springs.
The simulator is available for indoor play year around on Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Golfers are asked to wear casual attire and no spikes.
Fee is $50 per hour weekdays and $60 per hour weekends. Fees are computed based on the number of hours booked divided by the number of players.
For information and reservations, call the Learning Center at 908-369-8232. For information on all Park Commission programs and activities, log onto www.somersetcountyparks.org.
