24 hr ranges?

Trying to find a 24 hr range in Orange County, CA. Anyone know if there is any that are open 24 hrs or at least untill late?

The one near my place turns off the lights at 9 which is a little too early.

Thanks

Calvin

We had one near where I work a couple of years ago. Being someone who works the grave yard shift, it was cool being able to hit a bucket of balls before I went into work. It was open 24 hours for about 6 months, but complaints about the lights from the neighbors and I suppose lack of business at 2 o'clock in the morning, they went back to standard operating hours.

The driving range I usually go to sells their last bucket at 11 PM so that's usually good enough for me. I'm sure there has to be a 24 hour driving range somewhere.

Hey, I was just gonna say the same thing... I think they open at 7:00am, but I can't be sure, I've never actually witnessed it It's so much better at night, every time I've gone in the day time I get put on the waiting list...

One of the ranges around here is a two tiered set up. If you are on the top deck, it is cool watching balls fly out from below you. At night it is the coolest. Shot come flying out and disappear into the darkness.

Last bucket at 11.00 is pretty good. I just hate it when i wanna hit some balls after dinner. My range turn off the machine at 8.30 or 9.00 and the lights go off at 9.00 or 9.30 ...

Socal golfers pls let me know what time your range closes... 11.00 is good but Hawaii is a little too far to drive

What's so special about that? Shots "disappear" on me all the time!

Calvin,
Hoover Golf Center turns off the lights at 11:00pm. After 11:00pm there aren't enough golfers to cover the light bill. Hoover golf center is in Westminster (Bolsa and Hoover). Price is lowest in Orange County. They have new balls too.

Hey Kha,

Thanks for the info. I found one in Rowland Heights/Diamond Bar area which is alittle closer. Pacific Palms. The lights go off at 11 too.

OT - Thanks for inviting me to play with you and your friends. I replied your email. Let me know

Calvin
