An intense golf season lies behind us and we deserve a break, but for those who like to keep practicing there are many indoor golf facilities you can visit. These facilities have gone through a huge transformation from being a dusty, musty basement with an old fish net hanging from the ceiling to a really nice golf lounge equipped with the latest golf simulators
