Golf Training Bay

In July Inside2Outside started trialling a new product – A Golf Training Bay. The Golf Training Bay is designed to over a practice bunker, and to protect those inside from the weather when it takes a turn for the worse.

The product has an aluminium frame, a tensile membrane roof and plexiglas half sides surrounding the sides and back of the structure to provide protection, but keep the outdoor feel for the golfers.

With an angled roof to allow golfers to get the height they need to play the ball out of the bunker, integral guttering is also provided to prevent rainwater from spilling off the roof into the bunker.

Longstanton Golf Club were first to try the prototype out and have had positive feedback from customers on the usefulness and practicality of the structure, as well as its aesthetically pleasing looks.

Adrienne Engleman, PGA Professional at Longstanton Golf Club commented ‘It’s a smart structure, the colour fits in great and the customers have expressed how they’ve enjoyed using it.’ Golfers are fully protected against the elements when underneath the structure, and its unique design allow golfers to get play their full range of shots that may be required from a bunker.

Adrienne continues ‘It’s really got people talking. Beforehand people ignored the practice bunker the structure is over, now they automatically go to it. It’s clear, there is lots of space, and it let’s light in. It’s especially handy when the weather is bad and you want to practice your bunker shots, as now you can play it without getting soaked!’

Jason Holland, Sales Advisor who is a keen golfer added ‘It really aids your confidence when playing bunkers as you are able to get the practice in whatever the weather.’
