TaylorMade Golf Experience

Staff is always great and 90 percent of the balls are in outstanding shape. Other 10 percent are okay. Everyone is nice, atmosphere is awesome. Just wished they had a better putting green and short game area. Other than that, the place is perfect.

It was a spur of the moment type thing to do. I love how friendly they are once my friend and I entered and they helped us out with renting 90 balls, our driver clubs and showed us their full bar. Maury the bartender was awesome! He made me charge my phone since it died. The driving range was such a blast just drinking beers and hitting balls as far as we can take them. Other games such as chess and jenga where available by the bar tables too. Pretty excited to bring more friends here.

I’ve been to this course quite a few time and its always a fun experience. Honestly, you can’t beat the price and the staff always provides good service.

Overall, I really enjoy coming here. There are great specials such as $ 10 unlimited balls of which I love to do. I bought a new set of clubs here as well and Roger, my sales consultant, was very patient with me and even let me hit a bucket of balls using potential clubs.
Also, the food here is very good and it’s not too much of a rip-​off either!
If you come to the range during the summer, be prepared for big crowds later at night for obvious reasons.

I would highly advise staying away from this facility. We came here for a demo day to try the new M1 driver and left extremely disappointed. The employees that were working the club station were extremely rude and weren’t willing to help unless you were planning on making a purchase. Asking them questions seemed like it was to much of a hassle for them to give you an answer. Customer service is no where to be found here. All I can say is I will never return to this place strictly because of the employees and the awful attitudes they have here. This experience here makes my choice to switch to Titleist an even easier one.

Came here for the first time with my fiancé who is a big golfer. He brought me to the driving range to practice and learn. It was a Monday and not crowded. We went to the lower level to learn. The basket of golf balls was $ 9 which I thought was super cheap for 90 balls. We hit those for about an hour or so and then left. Will definitely come back here, I like golfing and this place is very welcoming.

I sent this email to the TaylorMade Golf Experience three weeks ago and not heard a single reply. That alone is another reason I will not be returning.
=========================================================
Greetings,
I organize a trip out to Las Vegas every summer for the same group of guys and, for the past several years, we’ve always made a stop at what is now the TaylorMade Golf Experience. We have found it fun in the past, but this last experience was incredibly lacking and, at times, disgusting.
As I relay this feedback, I’d like to stress that I expect nothing in return — I don’t want a refund. I’m not looking for anything other than to deliver substantive feedback and hope that it will be taken seriously.
We golfed at your facility on two consecutive evenings this past weekend: Friday, August 7, and Saturday, August 8, 2015.
Upon arrival, we checked in and the power had recently come back on. I thought the staff dealt with the situation rather well despite the obvious challenges that presented. They got us on our way in no time — that part went very well. The rest did not.
We noticed that all of the tee boxes are in horrible shape. The fairways and greens are decent, but the tee boxes are a disaster. We get that you can’t always police people not replacing their divots, but there’s apparently no aftercare going on at any point.
At the end of the first night, we came back to the clubhouse to use the bathroom and get a drink, and someone had relieved themselves on the floor in the bathroom. There was a GIANT pile of human feces that was all over the floor of the handicapped stall in the Men’s Room and the door to the rest room was wide open, causing the odor to drift out into the bar. I immediately alerted the bartender – the only employee in the area – and informed him of what went on. He did nothing for half an hour. I then went outside and told one of the employees in orange shirts who then asked if the bartender did anything? Honestly, how would I know? I presume not because he never left the bar but… truthfully, I’m a CUSTOMER. That’s not my job. There’s a GIANT health concern on the floor in the bathroom and not a single employee seemed to do much about it in 45 minutes. It was disgusting and embarrassing, and it made me think far less of your facility. I get that no one would want to be in a rush to deal with that – but there were other customers who needed to use the facilities and that’s a genuine health issue.
We also asked if we could check our clubs overnight — something we’ve done each of the past couple of years and especially when we play multiple days. The young lady that helped us said, «We don’t do that.» When we relayed that we have in the past, she went to talk to a manager and then seemed awfully put out to deal with the fact we wanted to check our clubs.
The second night, we had a golf cart die while out on the course. We had to call the clubhouse via cell phone and report it – and they wanted us to PUSH the cart back to the building from the 5^th hole. We had to ASK them to bring another cart out to us so we could continue play. Even then, they wanted us to push them all the way back with the working cart and then come all the way back around again to finish playing. Again, I’m a paying customer – not an employee.
At the end of our round the second night, we asked the young man working to call us a cab and he said he could try, but he doubted they’d come. He then suggested that we take our clubs and walk across the Las Vegas Boulevard to the mall and use the taxi stand over by the Apple Store. (In years past, we’ve never had a problem getting a cab there at the course.)
There has been a precipitous decline in service at your facility – and it’s so bad that everyone in our party who played stated that they’d rather not play there again. Things there have taken a definite downturn since the name changed to the point where your staff seems to have general apathy to the people who pay money to golf there.
They were back-​to-​back experiences that were disappointing and shameful as far as service and cleanliness. I don’t know to whom this should be forwarded, but I’d appreciate it if this made it into their hands.
Sincerely,
William Smith

Nine holes or two different ranges. Not too shabby. A little pricey (but the hubby pays so I don’t notice). Great experience for a new golfer trying to figure out how to use their clubs. You can even play at night! (For those who are more advanced than I) the bar shop that is attached is currently closed, but they do have a beverage cart for you to purchase items. I haven’t shopped in the Pro Shop yet (note the yet) so I don’t have much experience there.

This is the first time that I picked up a golf club in about 10 years and I loved every moment of it. This place has a relaxed vibe with really nice staff. Also, they allow you to do the driving range with unlimited balls for ONLY $ 10/​person. With my three other friends, we must have hit close to 150 balls each. The food at their restaurant was also really good. They have plenty of beer on tap and their hot dogs ($ 5), mozzarella cheese sticks ($ 8), and wraps ($ 9 – 10) are all really good! What better way to spend a day that hitting golf balls, grubbing on good food, and sipping on some beer while you’re at it! Highly recommend this place!

Kenneth contacted me and fixed everything! They matched the new price and had a new driver sent out within days. I wish I got that kind of response when I called in, but it still all worked out in the end!

I’m not really into golfing but I really enjoy coming out here with my buddies to hit some golf balls at the driving range.
Price is reasonable and this is a great stress reliever. Take out all your frustration out on hitting balls lol
The shopping store they have here is really pricey & enjoy the happy hour menu at the bar.

I am not a golfer, but I had a super fun time just hitting golf balls at this super cool desert driving range. It was hot as heck! After I hit my 100 balls, I went to the Upper Deck for lunch. The food is good, you have a fun view of Las Vegas, and you can watch airplanes land while you eat (and pretend like you’re a golf pro). I love this place and I want to go back. Such a fun cheap adventure away from the strip.

Very impressed. A time away from the strip to relax and play some golf and get away. The day was hot, but I made the best of it. Maureen and Mr. Blood at the front were very kind and professional, I can’t believe how many kind and nice people are here in Las Vegas. I guess that’s why all walks of life move out here because of the diversity and opportunity. At the end of my sub par round I dropped in and the lady working the bar Jaymee was not only stunning but so kind hearted, she filled up my water bottle with cold water because my canteen was filled with Luke warm water. In any case her smile, personality, and friendliness is what’s brings patrons back to bars and establishment whether it’s golf or grabbing a cold one. I’ll be back Taylor Made, that I guarantee and I’ll bring friends!

Kenneth Mgr /​Maria Bartender really make it very enjoyable to come back everytime. I enjoy a quick nine holes for my short game. And not to mention the $ 9 big juicy house burger /​house fries (come with a cold beer)
Most excellent. Planing to buying my new clubs here. P. s. I like the fact the second I walk in (from checking my bad in til I leave) everyone I come in sight, greets me.

1^st visit to this spot since Taylormade took over from Callaway. It’s still a nice place to hang out if you enjoy golf. Great selection of products to choose from.
Great staff. Hats off to Kim. He was awesome to deal with. I told him my budget and he found me a perfect fit. I walked out with a new driver and couldn’t be happier. I’ll definitely go back when in Vegas again.
Recommend.

It’s right across the street from the airport on The Strip so if you’re one of those anal golfers who need absolute silence while swinging this isn’t the place for you. Aside from that I kind of like the driving range and its two-​tiered set-​up. I always hit from up top but down below it’s covered from the sun if you don’t want rays on your shoulders. Prices for buckets are:
$ 5 for 30 balls
$ 7 for 60 balls
$ 9 for 90 balls
They give you a ticket with a pin number and you go to one of the machines, type in your number and the balls drop down like they did when I was 5 or 6 years old.
There is also a spot if you want to hit from the grass but it costs a tad more. They have a putting green and par three course but I will not partake in either until I correct my slice. The pro shop is pretty well stocked and I like the bar/​restaurant where you can sip a brew and watch the planes and tellys. I also heard the food is pretty good.
This TM is conveniently located to me and anyone in town staying on The Strip. If you see me here don’t hesitate to say hi but I probably won’t hear you over the roar of the planes and my curse words after each slice.

Previously Callaway, the area is exactly the same but currently undergoing some exterior renovations
$ 5 for 30 balls
$ 7 for 60 balls
$ 9 for 90 balls
upper and lower areas to practice your swing, a putting area and 9 hole.
upkeep on this place isn’t that greatest. Last time i was here you could see more balls on the field than the field itself.
I also recommend swinging on the upper tier so you can see where your ball ends up.

I just started playing golf again since I was a kid. I had heard this place had lights to play at night, and since I’d been wanting to play again, I rented some clubs, hit the range, and then played the par-​3 course. I knew I had to have more, so I bought some clubs and started practicing. In the last few months, I’ve only played at Angel Park (also has lights for night play), and have not played Taylormade since that first day.
So when I decided to hit it up again, I was in for a shock. The greens are horrific. They’re mostly dirt, with a few blades of grass popping out. The rest of the grass isn’t much better, and just pray you don’t hit into an open trench somewhere. You can see where all the beautiful water features used to be, and while I understand that it was probably too expensive to maintain, the big ugly holes that you hit over instead are an eye sore.
Then there’s the price… $ 20 (local price) for 9 holes of golf may not seem like much, but when those holes are terrible, and you can play 12 MUCH better holes at Angel Park for $ 14 (also, local price), it starts to seem a little high. The mats on the range are crappy, but for the sake of convenience I’d happily take a few swings on my way to work sometime.
Trust me, unless you are literally only able to walk from a casino, I would highly recommend going elsewhere for a Par-​3/​executive game. Durango Hills, Desert Willow, and Eagle Crest are all 18 holes executives that cost roughly the same as Taylormade. I already mentioned where I prefer to play, but there are other small par-​3s around as well, that cost a fraction of what this place does.
Unless Taylormade decides to close down for a couple of months and totally overhaul the course, I can’t see myself going back again.
Cheers–
UPDATE (10−11−15):
Well, it’s been nine months since I wrote this, and there have been some changes made. The greens are better, I’ll give them that. What’s not better is the customer service. I’ve actually gone a number of times over the summer to avoid the daytime heat, and was kind of digging it… until tonight.
Tonight is the second time that I have gotten all my stuff together, gotten dressed, driven across town, and then been turned away because they have some corporate event happening and the entire course is closed. I wouldn’t mind if I had known this in advance, but they make no effort to disclose such events (say, on their shiny newfangled website?). The assumption is that since I drove all the way there, I’ll probably still pay to use the range and they can still get me for a few bucks. The girl at the counter seemed shocked that I was upset over having my time wasted. They also seem shocked every time I choose to pay $ 20 instead of $ 25 because I’d rather walk and don’t want any drinks.
As a concept, this place is great, but in reality it’s just another Vegas tourist grab. If you’re a local, STAY AWAY! It’s pretty clear that they don’t want us there anyway.

Guys! This place has a BAR!
Listen, I dont know anything about golf or care about it at all. When your friend has to wait for her kid to finish his golf lesson, but you both need a drink, you go to the bar. The bartender was nice and tried her hardest to help everyone, though she was a bit slow at times. Good news is the alcoholic strawberry lemonade is great and their food is surprisingly good. They have happy hour specials and their burgers and appetizers are pretty darn good. I mean, you dont go here as a destination, but if your friend/​partner/​family insists on hitting golf balls and you insist on hitting the booze, this place isnt a total loss.
BONUS! Single ladies! If you are looking for a possibly-​wealthy golfer husband, this is your place. We were the only females in the bar with lots of dudes (minus wedding rings).

Friend wants to hit some balls. OKAY. My alter ego Grace Park must emerge.
We bought a bucket of 90 balls and went to town. It was pretty fun, but I can only hit so many balls until I get bored. They also have a putting area to practice on and a bar! WOO!
