What's the Deal with Top Contender at Topgolf?

Good point, Carly! I noticed that some balls scuff really easily after a few rounds. Anyone tried using the TaylorMade TP5? How do those hold up?

I’m curious too! TaylorMade TP5 balls are softer and offer excellent control. They’re a bit pricey though. Worth it or not?

Totally agree! They feel great off the clubface. Just beware of the price—it’s not for the faint of heart!

Accessories make a difference too, like gloves and tees. Any suggestions on must-have accessories for Topgolf?

A good glove is essential! I love the FootJoy WeatherSof; it offers excellent grip and fit. As for tees, stick with plastic ones that last longer.

Yes! Having the right grip really helps your swing. Plus, you don’t want to be losing your tee in the process!

The atmosphere is amazing! Last time I participated, it felt like a mini-festival with music and cheering from friends. Totally worth it for the experience alone!

What’s the skill level like? Do you have to be a pro to join these contests or is it more about having fun?

Great question! It’s mostly for fun, but there are serious contenders too. Just remember to enjoy the game!

The last Top Contender I watched had some intense moments! It’s competitive but also a great chance to meet people and network. I’d say give it a shot!

I’ve heard a few people say the competitions can get pretty heated. Anyone else feel a bit of pressure during the last round if you are in the lead?

Oh, absolutely! It adds to the excitement, but I found that just focusing on my swing helped. Pressure can be fun, in a way!

Is there any age restriction for those wanting to compete? My friends and I are really curious.

Typically, you need to be 21 to participate in a lot of these events, especially if they serve alcohol.

Overall, it’s a chance to enjoy golf without the pressure. Just bring your friends, have some laughs, and you’ll likely have a fantastic time!
