Ken Sim Owner of Burholme Golf Center looking to enhance Driving Range experience for customers with Power Tee.
Burholme Golf Center is recognized as one of the premier driving ranges in the state of Pennsylvania. Ken Sim has been the owner and operator at Burholme for the last 10 years. At Ken’s facility customers will be able to find a mini-golf course, batting cages and a 63-bay driving range now installed with Power Tee.
Since Ken took over ownership, he has helped lift the facility to what it is now. With added targets and bays on the driving range, new landscaping to the mini-golf course and a full-service restaurant coming this fall Ken has been looking to enhance the overall customer experience. Ken Sim says, “We have been looking for ways to enhance our facility and bring in more customers. I think Power Tee will create a buzz that sets us apart from other driving ranges in our area. I know our older demographic of golfers will enjoy Power Tee; I think it will give them the ability to spend more time on the range”. Power Tee has been helping driving ranges increase revenue and attract more customers for the last 26 years. With the direction golf is heading, Power Tee finds itself at the forefront of this entertainment-based change.
When asked about the change the golf industry has gone through in the past few years Ken had this to say, “The golf industry is booming. We have seen a massive rise in customers over the last two years and I don’t see it slowing down anytime soon, I decided to install Power Tee to keep customers engaged and wanting to hit golf balls”.
Power Tee Owner Martin Wyeth is excited to have Burholme on board. He says, “Burholme Golf Center is a wonderful facility, and we are glad they decided to move forward with Power Tee. I have visited Kens facility in the past and believe we can help turn an already busy facility into something they have never seen. Golfers are going to love the new addition to the driving range, I can’t wait to hear all the wonderful feedback”.
