Where to Practice Your Golf Game in St. Louis

If you live in the St. Louis area and you are looking to improve your golf game, you need to have access to practice facilities where you can hone both your full swing and your short game.  Students often ask how often they should practice and the answer is "as much as possible".  Whether practice is on the course, on the range, in your garage, or in your living room, some practice is always better than none and where you can practice depends on where you live.  


Convenient access to golf practice facilities is a challenge to many golfers who live throughout the United States.  In fact, lack of access is often what stands between a player and a better game.  In St. Louis however, there are many practice facilities, driving ranges and courses with practice facilities that are open to the general public.  Here you will find a short description of the amenities and the location of public golf ranges and practice facilities in the St. Louis Metropolitan area.
