Golf driving range close to central BKK

[Kevin_Beethoven]

Shortly off to BKK on a 2 month stint. Mostly work. But want to take as much time as possible to absorb the culture.

 

however, one thing I'd like to continue is practicing golf. Something Ive taken up recently and dont want to slip in 2 months.

 

Anyone know of a recommended golf driving range in, or close to, central BKK? Not sure where Ill be staying tbh, so anything easily accessible from central BKK by uber will work.

 

Will be bringing a small selection of clubs from US so no need to rent clubs.

Cheers.

There is only one driving course that I'm aware of which is actually close to a metro station and that is "42 Tee Off" near Phra Kanong BTS.  It is excellent quality but considerably more expensive than the other driving courses around Bangkok. 

 

If you are taking a Grab (there is no Uber in Thailand), then you can always find driving courses just outside the centre and just beyond the metro station lines. You just have to search for "golf" on the Google map.

That will limit your options somewhat as Uber doesn't operate in Bangkok.

Looks good @Gaccha.

Website didn't mention any prices. Any idea of the costs?

It literally says 200THB /per tray of golf balls on the site link you sent.

My suggestion would be to go by the Thaniya Plaza near the Sala Daeng (sp?) BTS stop (MRT Silom) and ask around the golf shops in that building.  They'll have current info.  And it's worth a visit if you're a golfer in Bangkok.

 

You may end up at a completely indoor facility as opposed to a typical outdoor driving range.

I’m not a golfer but I have seen a driving range near the Ekamai BTS station.

You might as well play golf at some of the courses that are fairly close to train stops with a short grab ride.

yeah I think they have 4 floors of golf items of every type and price!

The 42 Tee Off range mentioned above is excellent.

 

It has recently been updated with the trackman system which is in use at my home range in England, and I think its brilliant to use while practicing.

 

Costs have risen accordingly, though. You now pay by the hour, 375 Baht per hour, all the balls you can hit.

 

Accessible directly from Sukhumvit road or by the Skytrain (Ekamai stations)

Thanks for that info, I have thought about a visit soon and nice to know it has changed a tad.  Always like just going there and walking around without thinking of buying anything.
