A Message from Aaron Gorman, Managing Director of The Golf Cooperative


Indoor golf is not a novel concept. It's pretty simple—install a simulator and projector above your head, plug in a computer, and start swinging a ball into a screen. So, why are golf simulator bars so expensive, often charging over $50 per hour? Why don't your local golf simulator facilities open before 10AM or stay open late? Why don't you feel a sense of community or ownership? The reason is that these existing simulator operators treat your relationship as purely transactional. From their perspective, you're just a dollar sign, and their business models are built around maximizing revenue by ensuring high customer turnover, hourly rates, and alcohol sales.

Well, The Golf Cooperative is here to change that. We give you a key with unlimited, 24/7 access to the best indoor golf technology on the market and the most robust community of golfers around, all for less than $100 per month. If this seems too good to be true, let me tell you, it's not. With no bar, restaurant, or employees, we offer golf at cost. Also, with limited access passes available, you won't run into congestion. And the best news is, when we reach capacity, we'll open another location and then another to ensure that golfers everywhere have affordable access to the game we all love.

We can't do this without you. The Golf Cooperative is run entirely by passionate volunteers, and we need your support. We offer three simple ways for you to get involved. Click below to learn more.

Thank you,

Aaron Gorman
