Driving ranges are interesting places, where people from all walks of life gather to let off steam, work on their game, take their first steps into a new hobby, take a break from family life or grind towards a potential professional career.

Wherever you are, they’re reassuringly familiar: the sound of the ball dispenser, the iconic green buckets, the thud of a ball being shanked into the side of a bay and the person smashing drivers at the ball-collecting buggy. These days, you’re also likely to find bays with Toptracer technology and ball-tracking software.
