Why Eastbourne’s 4 Golf Simulators Shine

World-Class Courses at Your Fingertips

4 Golf offers over 200+ courses—St Andrews, Pebble Beach, Valderrama. No annual fees. You tee off in private bays, complete with cinematic screens and moving platforms. It’s immersive. You feel like Tiger…almost.

Food, Drink and Fun Intertwined

Fancy a sandwich on the 9th? Their fully licensed bar serves tapas, craft beers and soft drinks without interrupting play. Grab a booth, munch away—for many, this stall-less experience is a big plus. Families and social groups love it.

Lessons with a Pro

Mark Packard, in-house PGA professional, offers group and one-to-one coaching at 4 Golf. He’ll help your handicap drop. But sessions can feel generic—no high-tech analytics, just standard drills.

The Zen Golf Studio Difference

Zen Green Stage: Simulating Real Course Conditions

At the heart of Zen is our proprietary Zen Green Stage technology. It replicates:

  • Ground reaction forces that affect your swing
  • Precise ball numbers (spin, launch angle, speed)
  • True-to-life bunker and rough textures

You get immersive conditions plus data you can’t see on most simulator screens.

Expert Coaching by Darren Webster-Clarke

Darren’s coached on international tours. He spots nuance. He’ll watch your launch monitor metrics then fine-tune your stance. Beyond clubhead speed, he tracks your eye movement on putts. It’s next-level feedback.

Data-Driven Insights for Tailored Improvement

With Zen, every swing produces a stream of metrics. You can:

  • Track progress over weeks
  • Drill effectively on weak spots
  • Compare before-and-after on your dashboard

This level of detail turns year-round golf practice into a science, not a stab in the dark.

Year-Round Golf Practice: More Than Just A Catchphrase

Outdoor routines stall in wind, rain or frost. Indoor venues solve that. But Zen Golf Studio goes further: our bays adjust to weather conditions on real courses. Rainy links? We simulate the slower ball roll on wet fairways. A windy Scottish open? You’ll feel it.

In short, we turn year-round golf practice into deliberate training. You build muscle memory, manage conditions and sharpen your mental game—without leaving town.

Whether you want casual play or serious improvement, you choose:

  • Solo sessions in a high-tech bay
  • Small-group lessons for league nights
  • Data reviews with a coach

And yes, you can still enjoy a drink in our lounge. This is golf training remodelled for every season.
