Bangkok Golf Centres

Life in any capital city is stressful enough. Different people have different ways of relieving their stress. Some drink, some do exercise, others get out of town as often as possible. However, for those people who have golf as a hobby or addiction, there is no alternative to playing their favourite game. The problem with golf, though, is to play it properly and enjoy it you need to be out in the country in hundreds of acres of green land. Driving ranges are not good enough. They are hot and noisy and only really allow the practice of a few skills. There is no perfect replacement for a proper round of golf. So, if the only option is a real game, one needs to actually go to a course. More problems arise here due to logistics and cost. Going to the same course time and time again is not ideal. Being a member of multiple courses is expensive and would involve lots of travelling. And finally, in hotter climates, such as Thailand, being outside for several hours is extremely unpleasant. For the country’s most uncomfortable weather Bangkok is the place to be! So, a possible solution is to try one of the several Bangkok golf centres situated around the city. The best ones offer comfortably air-conditioned rooms with experienced and professional instructors. With the latest technology for their simulators and convenient locations, it’s just like playing a real round of golf. And you can pop out during your lunch break for some practice or a lesson.

Admittedly, it is not real golf. It is the air-conditioned comfort of a golf centre, but it’s a lot better than any other option within the city. In neighbouring towns, such as Hua Hin and Pattaya golf is a much bigger part of many people’s lives, simply because there is the space to have proper courses and clubs. Pattaya is east of Bangkok and a popular destination for tourists, expatriates and locals. There is a lot to do in Pattaya, but also a seedy part of the town. Hua Hin is a similar distance from Bangkok but to the west. It is more popular with families and foreign retirees who want a slightly quieter life. In fact in Hua Hin golf is a big part of life, tourism and the income of the local community. Many houses are condominiums almost depend on it. There are many in Thailand who say that for a good round of golf Hua Hin is among the best in Asia. But for those people who are stuck in the capital and want to play golf Bangkok still has something to offer. Get yourselves down to one of the several simulator and instructor centres to get your fix.

“Thailand has long been the preferred golf tourism venue in Asia — where golfers from across Asia-Pacific play on holiday. But as the overall focus of golf worldwide — its tournaments, its world-class talent pool, its course development — continues to shift East, Thailand has assumed an ever-larger role, especially in the tournament realm.

Black Mountain GC in coastal Hua Hin will host the Asian Tour’s Black Mountain Masters 16-19 December, while another Golf in a Kingdom member, Siam Country Club in Pattaya, entertains the world’s top women golfers at the LPGA’s season-opening Honda PTT LPGA Thailand in January, as it has the last three years.” Read More…..
