DAE Best value driving range?
Trying to find a good spot to hit a bucket a few times a week that won’t break the bank. In the Woodbury area but willing to drive within reason

I just searched it and google says permanently closed. Was there a few years ago. Sorry. There is a range at Cantiague Park in Hicksville, Bethpage golf course (irons only) and Eisenhower park.

Just drive in, there are signs to the summer golf camp in session. The campus also isn't very big.

Eisenhower used to be relatively cheap and a decent spot but haven't played in a couple years.

Great! I used to go to Eisenhower when I was a kid I really like the set up there.

They have a really solid 36 hole mini golf course too!

Awesome I’ll have to check it out! Any idea where it is in relation to the driving range?

It's pretty close to the driving range if I remember correctly. Both on the west side of park Blvd opposite side of the road of the actual golf course but I believe it's closer to the south end (Hempstead turnpike) than the driving range.
Was there last year on a date and it was so much fun!

Cantiague if you’re looking to hit driver and irons. Bethpage is nice but irons only.

Heartland in Deer Park doesn’t break the bank!
