Naturally, we swung by these spots to find out all the essential details, from what makes them special to hacks you can do for a better experience.

With state-of-the-art simulators and classic pub vibes, X-Golf Rockingham turned our trip into a hole-in-one adventure.
They’re really not that different compared to the first ones, as this venue has the same amenities that put X-Golf on the map. What makes them special is their 10/10 customer service and massive TVs you can enjoy whether you’re in for a game or sip.
