X-Golf Portland

X-golf is your premium golf simulation experience. Unlike tracman, which I’ve used extensively, x-golf also provides a ground feedback sensor that can detect fat or thin shots; very helpful for achieving a more realistic measurement. There are settings to reduce the harshness of this penalty if you’re someone just looking to go hit some balls and have fun with friends. If you’ve played sim golf a lot before, especially on tracman, you know the putting is atrocious at times. I will say the putting system of X-golf is far superior, including their fixed ball placement position for putting only, to ensure a clean read every single time. The distance reads on mid range putts seemed more accurate, which is great when it comes to having a 12 ft. combacker for par after you scratch your head in confusion vs. having a clean up gimme (7 ft. Standard on x-golf but is adjustable) With all the being said Lucas, the head pro, is exactly what every regular golfer wants when they walk into a pro shop. The guy is knowledgeable, attentive and humble. He’s not your stereotypical, “annoyed you showed up for your tee time” pro. He’s very lenient and respectful of everyone’s time in each bay, letting groups finish their 18 hole round (within reason) or hit just a couple more range balls, as long as you’re not holding someone up and never rushes you out the door. The guy also pours a mean Makers Mark and made sure everyone else there was taken care of food and beverage wise. Long winded review but not affiliated an any way or trying to talk anyone into purchasing anything necessarily but after several subpar experiences elsewhere, I’d be dumb not to advocate for this place. Lucas and X-Golf get 5 stars. Will be back.

I have golfed 0% in my life. I thought I would just sit there, have a drink and watch everyone else. I played and had so much fun! I was absolutely terrible-but I’ll be back to work on my game! The pub food was good, the bar is limited but the service was phenomenal.

While visiting Portland we popped into this location and had a great time. Lucas was knowledgeable, friendly and extremely personable. We enjoyed some local beer (Lucas was also knowledgeable on this) and our son thoroughly enjoyed a reprieve from the heat with some golf!
