Because of the demand for full-year golf and training facilities, in a large market like Chicago. Smart Golf Lombard has been brought online.

“Chicago is one of the largest golf markets in the U.S., and golfers from all of the surrounding area’s have shown a desire for a year-round training environment. This has all but eliminated seasonal golf in Chicago,” said Co-Founder Joe Sheren. “We started in the West Suburbs in 2011 just offering fitness services. But then we ventured into the downtown Chicago market in 2013. Because we saw our business flourish when we added golf instruction to our service offerings. This allowed us to rebuilding our flagship facility in Lincoln Park. So now we are privileged to bring the same experience, back to where it all started,” said Co-Founder Tommy Asuma.

This new facility comes with four Trackman simulator bays, a 1,000 square foot indoor putting and chipping green.

But there is also a state-of-the-art gym, men’s and women’s locker rooms, and a member’s lounge. The member’s lounge is a great place to relax before or after your workout, or for hosting private events.

So if your looking to improve your golf game, and using fitness and training to take the next step. Smart Golf and it’s staff of PGA Professionals can help you lower that handicap, and make your body feel better during and after your round.
