    Default Topgolf coming to Calgary: Launchpad at

    Not called Topgolf, but it's the same deal apparently.

    Heritage Pointe and Mickelson National.

    I like topgolf. Will see how busy these get. Would be sweet if they had one closer to offices.

    Putting these so far out is a fail before they were ever started.

    Can I smoke a cigar while doing this? Because that's the best part of golf.

    This. No freakin way people are going to drive 30min (at least) one way to go do this... adding to that they can’t really drink because an Uber home would cost a fortune.

    Great for the folks that live in HP and harmony though.

    Disagree with location comments. TopGolf also not in city centers. Houston’s is actually in Katy, and is rammed everyday.

    Having it in Katy is more like it being in west hills. Where they building is like having it in Gavelston.

    Also top golf sucks.

    Top golf doesn't suck. I use to live in Houston, and it was one of the best things to do with friends visited.
    I took my brother and our friends to Austin for his bachelor party. One of the things we did was Top Golf. I arranged for an unlimited alcohol package at Top Golf, which I'm sure ended up costing Top Golf more then we paid for it.

    Also, I like the location. #southlife

    Admittedly, the only topgolf I've done was in Vegas, but I liked that. We shall see how the Canadian version compares.

    You had me in the first part...

    But Top Golf isn't going to replace golf. It's a social activity and you're there to eat/drink and hit some shots now and again. If you're going there thinking it's anything remotely close to golf, then you're doing it wrong. I would bring my own clubs though, the gear they typically have is rough.

    Putting it hell and gone far away makes it a novelty people will try once, not encourage repeat customers.

    Might as well be in red deer or Lethbridge.

    As someone who lives in Chaparral, I approve of this location.

    If you're allowed to crush beers then I'll go regularly.

    +1 right here. a real round of golf, with warm up, waiting for slower players, and a pint after is a 6 hour fuckshow. Topgolf, easy to be in and out in 3 hours. Huge advantage.

    Would have been sweet if the Tsuu T'ina thought of this and built it near the Grey Eagle Casino or Sarcee / Highway 8 interchange.
