TRUSSVILLE, Ala. (Trussville Tribune) -- Trussville residents have a new place where they can practice their swings or just have fun with friends 24/7/365 with the grand opening of The Golffice last week, hosted by the Trussville Area Chamber of Commerce.
As Chirs Basinger of the Trussville Tribune reports, the new business offers access to three state-of-the-art golf simulators featuring over 1,200 courses, which patrons can book for up to 4 hours.
“These are extremely accurate golf simulators. We’ve had professional golfers hit balls on them at our Vestavia location and say they’re spot on,” Owner Michael Weber said.
Weber, who also owns Weber Mortgage, opened The Golffice’s first location in Vestavia Hills after buying his first simulator as a way to entertain clients.
“I said, well I’ll buy this golf simulator and just use it to entertain clients, which we did at first but enough people said how much they were enjoyed it they were like you really should rent this out,” Weber said.
The space they moved into there also had conference rooms and office space that could be rented along with the golf simulators, leading his brother to suggest naming it The Golffice.
Along with the three simulator bays, the new Trussville location also features a conference room, mini fridges, and ample seating.
Golfers can book their time slot online and are texted a code that they can use to gain access to the building 10 minutes before their tee time.
The Golffice does not serve food or drinks, but players can bring their own, including alcohol.
Golfers also need to bring their own clubs and golf balls.
Bookings cost $39 an hour Monday-Thursday and $49 an hour Friday-Sunday.
The business also offers monthly memberships that include 8 hours of play for $150.
It is located at 3575 Vann Road.
