Okay, so I’ve been meaning to check out this “ghost golf” thing in Concord. I heard about it from a buddy who said it was pretty fun, so I figured, why not? I grabbed my clubs and headed over.
First off, finding the place was a little tricky. It’s tucked away, not super obvious from the main road. I drove past it once, had to circle back. Note to self: pay closer attention to the GPS next time!
Getting Started
Once I got inside, it was a whole different vibe. Dim lighting, spooky decorations, the works. They’ve got these black lights everywhere, makes everything glow. I paid for my round, got my special putter and glow-in-the-dark ball, and I was ready to roll.
- Checked in at the front desk.
- Got my gear: putter and ball.
- Briefed on the rules (pretty standard mini-golf stuff).
Playing the Course
The course itself is pretty wild. Each hole has a different theme, lots of skeletons and monsters and stuff. It’s all indoor, so the weather’s not a factor, which is nice. Some of the holes were surprisingly challenging! There are moving parts, obstacles, all sorts of crazy things going on.
I definitely wasn’t breaking any records, but I had a good time. I think I spent more time laughing at the decorations and the goofy challenges than I did actually trying to get a good score. It’s not exactly serious golf, you know? It’s more about having fun with it.
Overall Impression
I’d say it’s worth checking out if you’re looking for something different to do. It’s a fun, silly way to spend an hour or two. I went by myself this time, but I could see it being a blast with a group of friends or even on a date. I’d say it is a fun activity and will definetly go again!
I did find that it was easy to lose track of my ball in some places because everything is glowing, just keep your eyes sharp!
