⛳ THANK YOU, EAU CLAIRE!

What a great couple of days at Pin Club.

Thank you to everyone who stopped in during our Soft Opening to check out the facility, hit some golf balls, ask questions, and learn more about what we’re building. It was great finally getting to welcome people through the doors!

We’ll be closed Saturday & Sunday as we reset from the Soft Opening and continue putting a few finishing touches on the facility.

Starting Monday, our Showroom Hours will be:

🏌️ Monday–Saturday | 10 AM–7 PM
🏌️ Sunday | 11 AM–5 PM

Stop in to check out the simulators, explore memberships, shop Pin Club gear, learn about upcoming tournaments and events, or talk with us about building a golf simulator at home.

And we're just getting started.

Golf for you, on your time.
