Recreational golf is becoming a multibillion-dollar industry, with over 48 million Americans at least 6 years old playing both on and off-courses last year. This includes nearly 30 million who hit traditional driving ranges, simulators, and entertainment venues like Topgolf. The National Golf Foundation (NGF) has highlighted the increasing number of recreational golfers, stating that more people are playing more golf in more ways than at any time in history. A study by the Texas Alliance of Recreational Organizations found that Texas is experiencing a golf gold rush, creating over $14 billion in economic activity and supporting about 107,000 jobs. The sport also benefits from its holistic benefits, including a renewed appreciation for the public health benefits of the green-grass game.
