Win Dad a golf lesson!

From opening tomorrow through to close on Sunday evening we're running a closest-to-the-pin competition down here at the Iron Yard.

Harbour Town Golf Links Hole 4, 159m. In this wind? What could be easier 😂

Knock it closest and win a free one-hour lesson with the legend and a super smart Iron Yard polo shirt

Aaron sending a few off the deck of the Club House to see how "safe" our 10m fence on the northern side of the range is going to be. Looks like the high cut is gonna bring out the s**g bags!

Christmas bookings continue to be strong for the Club House. If you're looking for a place in Franklin for your team where you can have a few adult drinks and a great meal whilst playing a bit of minigolf or hitting balls off the new elevated range come on down to the Iron Yard and we can show you around! Alternatively - drop us a line at [email protected].

Because we know how much you love what Top Tracer adds to the experience we are offering discounted $10 per 50 balls until it is up-and-running again on Thursday

On Wednesday morning THE RANGE WILL BE CLOSED as it is surveyed. The minigolf and The Hidden Cafe will still be open Wednesday morning.

Thank you Waikare Golf Club

The lads were out for another match a week or two ago and got amazing conditions down in Te Kauwhata. The course was playing beautifully, and the greens running true.

It was another W for Jacob & W***y as they extended their lead with a 2&1 win. (It sounds like we might see handicaps being employed here on out 😂)

Remember - if you're an Iron Yard regular and have yet to try that swing in the "real world" we are spoilt in Franklin with quality friendly golf courses!
