UNT will be building a new $3 million golf practice facility, to be named after a long time booster who donated $1.5 million towards the project. The facility will include, hitting bays, putting greens, club house, and coaches offices. The new facility will be located at the Mean Green Village near Apogee Stadium. The project is scheduled to be completed by August 2021.

Might want to include the source of the story

Is Coach Littrell gonna tee it high and let it fly in the new facility?

Coincidence? but I’m also building a golf practice facility with a budget between $2.00 and $3,000,000.00

We should come in near the lower end of that budget range.

Anyway, I hope you guys have some Nice Fairways to balance out your Mean Greens.

WKU just opened an indoor golf facility in October. Named after our former coach who was killed last year while cycling.

While I'm an absolutely terrible golfer, I really love the sport and enjoy following our golfers. Glad to hear WKU opened a new facility. I had not heard that before. Please post some pics if you have any. Thanks.

We should just bring in a Top Golf to Denton and save the money!

AA hubs! We can work you out a deal to fly your golf team into CLT (airport, not poster) and Top Golf so you can practice all you like. Have your AD call up Mike Hill.

if it's not real turf, it's a waste of money....that'll fk your game quicker than the hopper god...

good luck with that...

fwiw, southern miss shut their university course down around the same time (viva la goat ranch)

hey zues, do you guys not have at least one of your local clubs that would be willing to host and promote that side of your product....

probably for the first three holes, after the third hole, he'll probably toy with the idea of going to another golf course, then he will decide to continue to play at the current course, while hitting over par for the remaining holes...

From the athletic department...

Construction begins in December.

That’s awesome! That is an entire practice facility, not just an indoor. Very nice! WKU’s is just an indoor complex. Has a few indoor bays with Trackman’s, a putting complex, locker rooms, lounge, etc.

clt has lots of questions

Thanks. I thought it would have an outdoor aspect to it, but didn't think they were building this much.

The only negative to the outdoor practice space is that it eats up quite a bit of primo tailgating spots. But, it does explain why the new tailgating development is the next building project after the athletic center expansion/remodel is completed.
