basic information

Golf is a very popular sport in Japan. Since space for golf courses is limited, golf club membership fees are very high. However, there are public driving ranges throughout the country where golf lovers whithout a club membership, can practice. These driving ranges are big constructions that are wrapped in large green nets. One can see these constructions everywhere, even in the middle of cities. Often balls can be played from two or more floors in order to allow a greater number of players to practice at the same time.
