Weber Park Golf Course is the perfect place to learn to golf or work on your short game. Located behind the Skatium Ice Arena on the northwest side of Skokie, the par 3, 9 hole course features bent grass greens, challenging sand traps, and beautiful landscaping. The course is also home to the game of FootGolf, a golf and soccer hybrid sport with giant holes and a very small learning curve.
Trackman is a radar system that reads club and ball data by the changing frequency of microwaves reflected off the club and ball (much like a doppler weather system). This high-tech monitor gives golfers all the data they need, is incredibly intuitive, and tremendously performance-enhancing. Golfers won’t just improve, they’ll improve faster than they thought possible. Data includes club speed, angles, ball speed, distance, height of ball, direction and many more. In addition to Sports Park's monitors, you can download the app for anytime analysis of your swing, via your favorite app store. In addition to range practice, Trackman offers games, as well as virtual play on some of the world's most famous golf courses.
