Hunters Run Country Club in Boynton Beach, Florida, has taken a major stride in enhancing the golfing experience for its members with the unveiling of its revamped driving range. The grand opening ceremony, originally planned to feature a ceremonial drive by golf icon Annika Sörenstam, was adjusted due to inclement weather, but her presence underscored the significance of this milestone.
The newly renovated South Driving Range boasts 17 covered hitting stations and three state-of-the-art studios equipped with synthetic turf mats. Each station is outfitted with Toptracer touchscreen monitors and towers, providing precise tracking of every shot’s trajectory, speed, curve, launch angle, and distance. This cutting-edge technology, brought to Hunters Run by Callaway, revolutionizes golf practice and play by offering instant feedback on performance, as well as gaming modes for individual or group play.
In addition to the technological upgrades, the range showcases synthetic bunkers, strategic short-game targets, and advanced robotic systems for ball retrieval and maintenance. An automatic ball washing system, the first of its kind in the United States, has also been introduced.
Ben Bauer, PGA, Director of Golf at Hunters Run, expressed gratitude to Annika Sörenstam for her involvement in the milestone event, emphasizing the Club’s commitment to elevating the golfing experience. ‘With the introduction of Toptracer, we’re setting a new standard for excellence in range facilities,’ Bauer said. ‘It’s a win-win for Clubs and players alike, fostering a passion for the game and fostering continuous improvement.’
The Toptracer system seamlessly integrates with smartphones via a dedicated app, providing golfers with real-time data on their shots and enabling progress tracking and performance measurement.
Larry Savvides, Hunters Run’s Chief Operating Officer and General Manager, emphasized the Club’s commitment to providing unmatched amenities while fostering social opportunities. ‘Our three distinctive 18-hole championship golf courses have always been a standout feature. The integration of Toptracer takes golf at Hunters Run to new heights,’ Savvides said. ‘This advancement empowers our golf professionals to optimize our members’ skills, elevating their potential. By modernizing the practice experience, we solidify Hunters Run’s status as a leading private club in Florida.’
