Auburn Driving Range

Rude & miserable employee. Do the job your getting paid to do or just stay home!
Would’ve worked harder on my game had I placed him out in the fairway!

Practiced here a few more times, and I actually like that you hit into a slope with trees in the back because you don’t lose sight of your ball. While it’s hard to absolutely gauge your distance, it’s a good option for cloudy days, which central MA has plenty of. They also take credit cards for a small bucket of balls, which is very nice.

Let me start out by saying that I have spent a lot of money here over the years. Unfortunately they apparently do not appreciate my business. Unprofessional is an understatement. I had the «pleasure» of dealing with one of the rudest and disrespectful employees in the golf industry i have ever seen. Instead of trying to understand my issue that i was having with the «ticket system» they have, i was treated like scum and was out the money i paid for a bucket a few days earlier. I can’t stress this enough… DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THESE PEOPLE. They are arrogant, disrespectful thieves!

This driving range has been around for awhile though it’s changed hands a few times. It’s an ok range. There’s only a couple benches along the long line of tee boxes, a small golf shop, and they offer lessons.
They have 3 yard markers and 5 flags (with posted distances) but the yardage is questionable. Primarily because you’re hitting up a pretty steep hill. If I’m hitting a ball and it’s landing at 200 yards on a hill, does that mean that the ball would really be 250 yards if the ball had the opportunity to continue it’s arch down to the same elevation I’m hitting from? Or have they taken this into account already?
Anyway, a bucket of balls will set you back $ 9 and it’s an additional $ 2 if you want to hit from the grass. Not the best value I’ve seen, but like I said, this place is just ok.
