golf nets and mats
how much does it cost to construct a golf driving range?
I am looking to build a single level 40-50 bay driving range. I don’t need a huge clubhouse. I just want to know how much it costs to:
level the driving range,
build the hitting bay areas
build a small club house
set up a parking lot about 150 spaces
set up the lighting
I am not looking for the cost of balls, mats, nets, and ect. just the construction of the foundation.
I think to get a real answer you need to give a lot more details, but in the interest of answering as best I can:
The price of land is relatively low at the moment. But you need to pay for a location people would go to. Then you need to decide if you want to do a single, double or triple deck set-up (to maximize the space you’ve got). Only the bottom floor would be real grass, unless you purchase saud once a month (it’s expensive). The answer to that question would add costs to your construction. (decks estimate: 1K for 0, 10K for 2, 20K for 3)
While the decks (if you want them) are being built you can get a Bulldozer on loan for a few hundred a day and level out 400 by 100-200 yards I’d say in a few days (depending entirely on how level the ground already is). This could add as much as 5K to your plan if you buy a place that has lots of rocks or is significantly sloped. You’ll also need other construction equipment if you ahve large rocks you want removed. (leveling the land: 10K – which includes union worker’s time, without rocks and up to around 30K if there are significant rocks and work to be done).
The Lighting will need to be put in at the same time with some of the same construction vehicles so I’d guess you’d put in lighting every 50-100 feet enabling driving to happen during non-daylight hours. You also have to ask if there will be enough interest to do this during non-daylight times (will the cost of keeping it open be paid by the night-golfers?) (my estimate: 10K)
The “small” clubhouse could be as much as a 100K job, depending on what you want, lighting, electricity, water, plumbing, etc)
The parking lot will be expensive at around 50K for the price of the land mixed with the cost of materials, then you’d have to add around another 10K to pay for peopel that know how to lay that much cement, paint the lines and light the parking lot (60-70K).
This is a huge project and I’m not sure if you’ve thought it out fully. I estimate that the least you could possibly get away with paying for all of these things woudl be somewhere near 200-300K with all of the little things that you’ll need to pay for that I didn’t menion (everything from buckets to machines to distribute balls, to furniture in the range, in the clubhouse, etc).
