From Nothing to Profits: How I'm Building a Golf Simulator Business ???

Starting a business from the ground up is never easy, but when passion meets opportunity, incredible things can happen. That’s exactly what drove me to open a Back Nine Golf location in Lawrence, New York—a place where golfers can refine their skills year-round using state-of-the-art simulators.

The Journey: From Idea to Reality ??

A few years ago, I got hooked on golf, but winter made it nearly impossible to play. The nearest indoor facility was 20 minutes away, expensive, and lacked quality technology. That’s when I discovered The Back Nine Golf and realized I could bring a better experience to my community.

With their proven franchise model, I had access to:

? 24/7 member access – No need to book expensive hourly sessions.

? Full Swing technology – The same cutting-edge simulators used by the pros.

? A supportive team – From setup to marketing, Back Nine helped me every step of the way.

The Business Model: Why It Works ??

Unlike traditional simulators that charge $50–$75 per hour, The Back Nine Golf offers memberships starting at $175/month here in Lawrence, New York. Members can book unlimited sessions—whether before work, after hours, or during lunch breaks. It’s convenient, affordable, and built for real improvement.

Looking Ahead ??

One month in, and I’m already approaching 30 members, with a goal of hitting 75–80 members in six months. Once we reach capacity, I’m planning to expand with additional locations throughout New York. More golfers deserve a high-quality, accessible way to train and enjoy the game year-round.

The Takeaway ?

Passion, community, and the right support system can turn a love for golf into a thriving business. The Back Nine Golf provides the best simulator experience available, and I’m excited to keep growing.
