Yup, there is one in Chicago. While I have not been, I have heard that it is basically a high end simulator concept with lessons, drinks and leagues.

I have been to the Chicago version and think Ian’s description is spot on.  Think of it as a replacement for TopGolf when the weather gets ugly in Chicago.


I did have a great time “playing” Pebble Beach with my young son while we watched the pros play it on TV.

There's one in Las Vegas in an entertainment complex known as Area 15. My wife got a beer in there while we were waiting for another attraction. Looked pretty cool. I listen to a Vegas-based golf podcast called The Chasing Daylight Podcast and the hosts of that play in a team league there. I believe the winners of the whole nationwide season win a free trip to Pinehurst. (Real Pinehurst, not a sim.)
