Free Practice Areas
Level Up Your Short Game—Absolutely Free!
Whether you're a seasoned scratch golfer looking to dial in your wedges, or a complete beginner picking up a club for the first time, Salt Lake City Golf has you covered. The best part? You don't need a tee time, a driving range token, or a green fee to practice. Every single one of our six municipal courses features dedicated, completely free practice areas designed to help you hone your putting, chipping, and bunker play.
Don't even have clubs yet? No problem! Just pop into the golf shop at any of our courses and ask a staff member to borrow a putter or wedge for free.
