It’s a hard place to miss if you are driving off I-95 onto Belvedere Rd. in West Palm Beach or near the airport. Drive Shack, a new golf-themed entertainment attraction has landed in the Palm Beaches.

The newcomer is the ultimate social entertainment experience, igniting fun with a mix of interactive golf gaming, food, and drinks. Drive Shack can become a real hub of entertainment the likes Las Vegas, Orlando, and Miami that West Palm Beach was lacking.

No matter where you go to play golf in South Florida, the integral part of Florida golf — water, sand, gators, palms — is present. But Drive Shack is a new experience that adds a fresh alternative to the typical day and nightlife scenes, and the social pleasure of playing golf. Avid golfers will probably love the combination of entertainment and technology as it has the potential for a significant long-term impact on the game of golf. Anyone else will learn the golf industry isn’t a far-reaching cloud.
